That’s new to me. For me so far it was sufficient to follow this part from the linked article…
Or, if Windows is already installed, from either the Sign on screen or the Start menu, select Power (Power button icon) > hold Shift while selecting Restart. Select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > UEFI Firmware settings.
As you’re currently using Windows on your PC, you might have to do an extended reboot. By default Windows skips the UEFI/USB step in the boot sequence to make Windows boot slightly faster.

The problem with most crypto compared to regular money is that it’s often seen as an investment. However, one of the most important factors for a currency that is used in everyday transactions is stability and predictability. Money is supposed to ease trading goods and services as a universal middleman. It’s not supposed to make someone rich who invested first.
Of course there’s also inflation and deflation with regular money but as soon as that’s getting out of control, it typically leads to serious economic issues.
It also works with Amazon FireTV (Stick) or any other Android TV box / stick, just in case you have already one lying around. ;)
I don’t think being interested in the (ancestors’) race of a co-worker is necessary racist. I worked with people with all kinds of cultural backgrounds and it might be just an interesting topic to talk about. If someone has family in Iran, Senegal or Indonesia that’s definitely more interesting to me than a conversation about weather or last night’s football game.
I think that question is hard to answer as there are very few topics of everyday life that aren’t at least remotely political.
Big cars, weapons, traditional family models (e.g. stay at home moms), focussing on traditional industries such as petrol than new technology such as solar etc. are all typical conservative topics. I mean conservative already implies with its name that you want to conserve the ‘as is’.
Contrarily, progressive and liberal people will be more open to changes and trying new things: food, new ways of transportation, new business models, other family concepts.

If you prefer pure text wouldn’t you be better off with a news reader and the Usenet? I understand Lemmy to be a federated and open alternative to Reddit. So a community-driven, thread-based social media platform. I think with text-only media Lemmy would lose a majority of its users.
I’m allowed to use my company’s laptop for private purposes as long as it doesn’t have negative impact on work (like installing mallicious or unlicensed software). I don’t use that priviledge a lot but I store some private backups on the company’s OneDrive.
“It’s a messy situation, but generally it’s very safe and it works well,”
Reminds me of the traffic situation in eastern Asia. Huge amounts of cars, scooters etc. mostly ignoring any traffic rules. From an outside perspective it looks like there must be thousands of injuries a day but considering the vast amount of individuals it’s still pretty safe and efficient.
Stuff Made Here: Crazy talented maker with a huge set of skills, tools and ideas. Add a good portion of humor and a a slightly annoyed wife who has to test all the inventions. Very inspiring for makers and entertaining for non-makers. Hard to call it a niche as he has 4.4 million subscribers but as OP also listed the lock picking laywer I think it’s fair. 😁 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCj1VqrHhDte54oLgPG4xpuQ
I don’t know about the real numbers but I feel like there’s sufficient interesting content to check it several times a day. So if stays stable I’m pretty happy with status quo.
I think it’s always about absolutes in the end. If a vegan drives by car 100000 miles and takes several flights a year that’s definitely worse than an omnivore staying at home all day. Ideally, you stay at or around home AND be a vegan AND only buy second hand AND avoid electronics etc.
If you are interested in how your personal lifestyle ranks against the average, just google for CO2 footprint calculator. If you want to do a good one, it will take at least 30 minutes as you have to answer quite some questions. This will give you not only an indication of where you are right now but also in which areas you have most room for improvement.
I think if everyone seriously tries their best and actually tried to improve their lifestyle it would have an immense impact. Unfortunately, most people seem to just blame “the industry” or “the politicians”. Of couse, they also play a role but we’ll never get a better world overall, if people aren’t willing to cut back on their lifestyle. And cutting back involves many many aspects. Veganism ist just one of them.
I also don’t understand the comparison to piracy but I think being a vegetarian is definitely more ethical than being an omnivore as long as you don’t overcompensate meat with other animal products. If you stop eating chicken and in exchange start to eat an additional 3 eggs a day, that’s probably worse for animals and nature.
If you just cut back on meat and replace it with vegan alternatives while eating the same amount of cheese, eggs etc. as before it DOES have a positive impact and we should appeciate one’s efforts.
Hell, even flexitarians have a positive impact. Right now, there’s around 90% omnivores worldwide. If all these omnivores reduced their consumption of animal products by let’s say 20%, it would have a far bigger impact than another 2% going full blown vegan.
Furthermore, it can be tough to go vegan all of a sudden. It takes time to change your diet, learn about healthy protein sources, essential nutrients and stuff. Going flexitarian first, then vegetarian and potentially vegan allows you to take one step at a time.
Also being vegan is not where it ends in terms of caring for the environment. You can keep reducing your personal footprint indefinitely. No more flights, no car, less electricity, less shopping. Everything helps. And everyone should try to contribute in the way that feels the most manageable for your personal circumstances.
Becoming mainstream very fast might also go along with regulation and lots of pressure towards the mods and server admins (e.g. hate speech, discrimination, fake news etc.). That might make it very hard as there’s no compensation for the work except of some donations maybe. I think it would be better to grow more natural with a slow but consistent pace to give the infrastructure and people some time to adapt to the bigger crowds.
Personally, I tend to prefer apps on mobile and the web versions of services when working from a PC.
Thanks, I did that now. Didn’t realize so far that the entire instance is just about replicating reddit. So for me that should do the trick.

He spend so much time trying to help you out of your addiction and you’re just disregarding all his efforts as not helpful.
In the beginning of COVID I ran out of tea once and since then I got used to just drink warm water from the tap in most cases. 🚰
