  • You said your lid and seat are totally independent - suggesting you can leave the seat up but close the lid.

    I believe that’s an interpretation mistake on your part (the italicized part).

    I was responding in disagreement to your comment about how both of them have to both be up together, or both down together, to actually use the toilet.

    A reminder of what I was responding to…

    So she asks me to always make sure to put the seat down for her,

    Seat is down if thenlid is down.

    Our lid is seperate from the seat. One can be done down while the other one is still up.

    I wasn’t commenting on what order they stack on top of each other.

    I feel like I’m being trolled myself tbh.

    For the record, not trolling at all, it’s not what I do.

    So lets just shake our headsbin unison and carry on.

    And yes, this is definitely not a subject we should be continuing to talk about. Have a good day.

  • “old lady” absolutely is slang for wife.

    I know it exists, but I’ve never used it.

    Also, I was just being more humorous, than literal, hence the toilet seat comment.

    Being serious for a moment, IMO, it sends one hell of a negative signal to your significant other, to your dissatisfaction of them, which I’ve never felt for my own wife.

    Edit: …

    And for those of you who may disagree with me, ask yourself this. Is your wife actually okay with you using that slang, or do they just act like they’re okay, but inside it bothers them? Do they see it as a term of endearment, or as a reminder of reality?

    Reminding your wife that she’s old, even playfully, may not be something she wants to hear.

    And generally speaking, women seem to care more about aging than men do. That’s why when someone asks you how old your wife is, when she is in earshot, you always say 18, or at the very least 21! 😜

  • Thanks for the reply.

    Data/B4/Lore were all partitioned in the same positronic brain that was in a “new” Data body.

    And Lore and Data had an internal fight over the body.

    That seems unusual, that one positronic brain can handle all three of those at once, but it sounds like a potentially interesting episode.

    I feel bad for B4, sounds like he’d be way out classed by the other two.

    Also you really should give Strange New Worlds a try at least.

    I might if it ever comes to a service that I have a sub to where I can see it.

    But fundamentally, I’m kind of a ‘substance over style’ type of person, and all the new Nu Trek stuff seems like all style and all amateurish storytelling retcon, no world building/lore substance.

    I kind of feel like that if the writers can’t respect the lore and the world building in the Star Trek shows that came before them, and only doing them lip service later on when they’re desperate and pandering for viewership, then they’re not respectful of me or my viewing time, and hence not worth my effort to ‘engage’ (pardon the pun).

    But I will keep an eye out for Strange New Worlds, and if I see an episode on cable/streaming service, I’ll check it out. I’ve seen some shorts on YouTube, and it peaked my interest a little bit.

    EDIT: As discussed above, turning on ‘Above 4G Decoding’ and ‘Resizable BAR Support’ settings in my BIOS fixed the problem.

    I had updated my BIOS recently, and the ‘Above 4G Decoding’ and ‘Resizable BAR Support’ was turned off, instead of inheriting the previous BIOS version setting of them being turned on.


    Does anyone know why OW2 may be crashing on Arch? I thought it was just me, but I went to protondb and saw more reports. The only solutions I found from historical crashing non-Arch related was for nVidia users, but I’m on AMD.

    Any clue why it may be? And, more importantly, what the solution may be?

    It crashes shortly after starting if that helps.

    Not sure if its related, but throwing this reply your way, just in case.

    WoW has been crashing for me too last couple of days, consistently. Launched via Battle.net launcher.

    Its weird, but the only way I can get it to not crash is by letting the first WoW session crash on startup, NOT closing the exception error message dialog or the report the crash to Blizzard dialog, and then start up a second session of WoW. That second session plays fine.

    I had played first session WoW normally for a week, then stopped to have lunch one day, and when I came back from lunch and started up WoW again, this crashing crap had just started.

    I tried using Bottles (both native and flatpak), Lutris, and Steam. The ‘run twice’ trick is being done on Steam (native not flatpak) using experimental. Using Fedora/KDE spin.

    Not sure where to report this ‘bug’ to on the Internet. Any ideas?
