  • As others have stated, it’s a tiling window manager. Many, including me, prefer it to the usual floating window managers that most desktops use.

    But I’ve been using sway since switching to wayland after years with i3. I see lots of hyprland hype, but i’m happy with my sway workflow and don’t see anything about hyprland that makes me want to switch or even try it out.


  • Wow, I’m running the same setup: debian, sway, fuzzel, foot, RX 6600. Unfortunately, I have no good advice as I have not run into that issue. All I can say is that I never specifically installed the amd drivers, amdgpu was already installed. Do you also have gnome installed with the default debian install? Does it do the same thing in gnome?

    I switched from ubuntu to debian when 12 was released and it’s been fine. Only thing i was worried about was running WoW via lutris but had no issues.

    So when my SO windows pc died we bought some newish parts and i installed debian on it as well. Also installed chrome since that’s her browser of choice. She’s still getting used to gnome, but all she needs is browser, WoW, and libreoffice, which is close enough that it hasnt been an issue. She doesn’t even know how to update the system.


  • Your fridge may be made from some steel that is susceptible to rust, and the paint protects it. When iron rusts, the iron oxide product is that red stuff, which is not protective and flakes away, revealing more material that can then rust.

    Stainless steel has chromium which oxidizes before the iron, but chromium oxide is strong and forms a protective barrier preventing additional material from oxidizing. Though certain environments, such as high temperature or moisture can cause the chromium oxide layer to fail.

    Practically speaking, i’m not sure what the best fix would be. If you could prevent oxygen from getting to the bare metal, that should prevent further corrosion.


  • I teach my physics undergraduates the basics of latex for writing. They usually figure it out. It’s basically like writing some code. The biggest pain are graphs. And like a lot of code these days, chatgpt can help a lot.

    If you just need to write basic text formatted using apa, you could find or create a template and give it to your students. Then they won’t even need to think about the formatting cause the template will deal with it all correctly.

    Oh, i should add, in that screenshot, most of that code creates the fornatting. Once that is set, your actual content with words and paragraphs looks mostly like text.

    Start with a minimal preamble and start testing it out.

    I’m a college professor. I’m very aware of textbook prices. Most students don’t read the textbook anyway, even if its something you want them to read everyday.

    For intro classes, I use openstax, which are available free online. For upper-level classes, I try to pick non major publishers, ie not pearson or cengage, with much more reasonably priced books.

    My version of this meme would be the prof begging the students to actually read the book he/she picked out that is free or cheap so that they are prepared for class and the students rolling their eyes and instead just going to chatgpt or chegg…



  • I guess I’m confused as to what’s going wrong then. I assumed you were blowing up due to heat. Are you going too fast for the drogue chutes? Do they rip off when you deploy? I don’t think I’ve ever had a problem with not slowing down enough to deploy drogues.

    When you come in, you do want to be retrograde. If I remember correctly, with that vessel, it will come in a bit sideways, heating up the crew capsules, but still should be okay.
