politics @lemmy.world•Trump floats pardons to ‘protect’ Elon Musk and staffers from Democrat investigations
1·2 days agoUnless Elon and the said staffers personally give Trump a big pile of cash I doubt he will pardon any of them.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What drink tastes awful but somehow people still act like it's amazing?
1·1 month agoI haven’t drank enough baiju to form an opinion, but I always thought it was more of a class of liquor then anything specific (think whiskey, as opposed to jack Daniels). I had one person tell me it was the moonshine of China. And then I go to a liquor store and see some highly prized bottle of it for 3 or 4 hundred usd or more.
There are literally dozens of us!!!
In all seriousness tho, I like the fact that Eddie supports amnezia wireguard.
My wife loves the riff I make which I call a benzoni (lol)… Replace the gin with bourbon, like the negroni/boulevardier riff. It’s tasty but it definitely doesn’t need any sugar syrup, as bourbon can be quite sweet on its own.
Oh and I only use green grapes. I think the original called for red? Green tend to have a nice tartness that I love.
This is such a great drink. Tho I usually don’t add sugar syrup to them when I make them, but I also usually prefer cocktails on the more bitter side.
Side note: prepare to have to deep clean your Hawthorne strainer…
He was on the middle of a yawn when I took the first picture… It just worked out well.

Linux@lemmy.ml•How to get windows to not do disk checking or ruin my bootloader when i add a linux partition on the same disk?
2·2 months agoI’ve done it with over a dozen computers by different manufacturers: primarily laptops: Lenovo, HP, toshiba, and I have yet to run into any issue.
Windows assumes there is only ever going to be one efi, so it totally ignores the second partition. Linux has you mount the efi partition so you can choose it over the windows one.
What problems have you had with it? There is lots of advice out there on the Internet saying this is the best setup, not just me.

Linux@lemmy.ml•How to get windows to not do disk checking or ruin my bootloader when i add a linux partition on the same disk?
1·2 months agoA second drive is optimal, but you should still have a second efi partition on the second drive.

Linux@lemmy.ml•How to get windows to not do disk checking or ruin my bootloader when i add a linux partition on the same disk?
3·2 months agoWhereas I agree that it’s not guaranteed to work, I have set up more then a dozen systems this way and have never had it be an issue.

Linux@lemmy.ml•How to get windows to not do disk checking or ruin my bootloader when i add a linux partition on the same disk?
11·2 months agoIf using efi (instead of bios), set up a second efi boot partition. Use one efi for windows and the second for Linux. It’s “non standard” but the efi spec does not explicitly forbid you having multiple partitions, and it will keep windows from disabling anything on the Linux boot partition.

Technology@lemmy.world•Why Everyone’s Picking Up a PSP Again in 2026English
15·6 months agoI never has an original psp, but I had a psp-go. It was great! I primarily used it to emulate the nes and Genesis. Not many people liked the other slide out screen aesthetic but it was one of my favorite parts of the design. It reminded me of the Motorola sidekick.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK about precordial catch syndrome: a recurring sharp, stabbing chest pain that worsens when you take a breath and only lasts a minute
57·7 months agoHoly fuck it has a name.
Of course it has a name … Of course I’m not the only one this happens to.
Everyone saying you need two harddrives needs to know: all you need are 2 efi partitions: one for windows one for linux… You can have them on the same drive. It’s nonstandard, but I have never found a machine where it doesn’t work.

There are a lot of countries that have extradition policies that don’t follow them for people they consider citizens.
Take this example with Greece: https://www.ctpublic.org/news/2026-09-30/kosta-diamantis-cts-disgraced-former-deputy-budget-director-sentenced.
Greece has extradition treaties with the US but won’t extradite the scumbag because he is a citizen.
This happens with a lot of people who flee to their home country.
