all the people I've seen supporting Palestine and being against the genocide have not changed stance

who have you seen change their opinion ?

I try to be ready to leave, meaning dressed and bag is packed, as early as possible. I am for being as ready as possible at least 15 minutes before I leave. I add and subtract minutes depending on how important the event is and how much I need to have checked before leaving.

also, I try to aim for being at least 10 minutes early for most events. this is working very good for me. it allows small talk with other people who've arrived and it allows time for being late.

it is time consuming, but I've come to enjoy the breaks it gives, before leaving and when arriving early ^^

also, thinking through what I need to prepare before leaving as early as possible. Often, I think about it the afternoon before I have to pack.

good luck :)

//edit:

these systems don't stop me from getting distracted and forgetting things, but because I've moved everything 15 minutes earlier, then when I'm late for my own deadlines, often I'll still make it to the actual deadlines :)

that's a good idea - it certainly would have saved me from a lot of work :)

thanks for the answer :)

I just tried to remove and insert the wifi adapter, and now the dmesg has a message about loading a driver :)

for some reason, it loads the old driver still. rtw_8821cu instead of rtw_8821au. I'm a tad confused, but I'm happy it's working :)

thanks a lot for the help :)

it does not show up from ip link show.

what does it mean, that it is not initialised ?

//EDIT:

I ran a script called remove-driver.sh from the driver that I used to use (https://github.com/morrownr/8821cu-20210916) and now the wifi adapter is up and running again :)

Thanks a lot for the help - I'm not really sure, what was wrong, but I'm very thankful for the help :)

Was the problem, that I had a bad driver installed ?

dmesg gives me 942 lines - is there anything specific I should be looking for or share here ?

sad to see that he thinks like that about rape and the whole Epstein thing :(

There is https://peertube.tv/

It is a video sharing platform and part of the fediverse :))

Why the hate on anime ?
