I did run a similar test and there were no errors detected. Thanks anyway!

I can sudo. Last time I looked into this, Memtest86+ version 6 was required to work with UEFI but it wasn’t available for Ubuntu 22.04. Now it seems that 24.04 has it, so I might update and see if I can get the test running. Thanks for the suggestion!

I can’t run memtest unfortunately. The option isn’t there and I don’t have permission to boot from a USB stick.

I do have an interview scheduled, just saying…

It wouldn’t affect boot though.

I just did that! Brilliant idea, thanks!

That’s a good idea. If I can get it to boot today, I will check the logs, thanks!

It’s not hard to reproduce, but it’s annoying that when they finally came here to check it, no problems happened. I had to bug them so much to even get them to have a look.

How come clay isn’t 100% clay?

I have already seen data having to be thrown away because the researcher copied and pasted it incorrectly from multiple spreadsheets and no one could tell what the correct data was anymore. No one should be doing this if they are responsibly doing “real analytical work”.

You are completely right, and the Open Science movement is catching on. The idea is to give everyone access to the (anonymised) data and use only tools that are freely accessible, even to scientists from developing countries without Microsoft licenses, so that they too can rerun your analyses and verify your results. You shouldn’t be getting downvoted.

I get you, OP. Sometimes it seems like people treat Steam as the pinnacle of Linux. It’s even more baffling when people say that they like Linux but wish they could run MS Office, Photoshop etc. Do you really like Linux or do you just hate Windows? Because for me almost the entire point of Linux is that it’s FOSS. If all I wanted was to run proprietary software, I would use an OS that the proprietary software officially supports and was designed to run on, saving myself a ton of trouble.

Brazilian. I only take one shower/day unless it’s very hot, then it’s two. I don’t think I ever took three showers/day. But bear in mind that the climate is very different depending on where you live in Brazil.

Right. ‘Lasagna’ in particular is spelt exactly like it’s pronounced in Italian.

TahtyUHny FYI. It’s a weird spelling of a common Brazilian/Portuguese name. The usual spelling is Tatiane.

I think many people don’t understand this is the entire point of being on Lemmy. They just want Reddit without ads, but without FOSS we would sooner or later become Reddit. So of course we are going to care about FOSS.

It’s the same with people who use Linux but say they don’t care about FOSS. Linux is Linux because it’s FOSS. Otherwise it would just be Chrome OS or Android.

I mean, Lemmy itself is FOSS, and the vast majority of instances are running on Linux. The main reason I am here and not on Reddit is that Lemmy is FOSS.

Geez, people. Feminine magazines have always been like this. Everyone knows that we women are incapable of caring about or understanding anything except clothes, diets, and home decor, so we must appeal to these interests rather than talking about this difficult boring stuff like writers’ strike. What exactly do these writers do anyway? Why are they striking rather than writing? It sounds boring. Please tell me more about Margot’s outfit, which I will wear after losing 50lb.
