This is literally the exact same problem I was talking about months ago.
I'm sure that NVIDIA is at fault, but Nouveau is just as bad driver-wise
so there is really no option for anyone unless they use an AMD GPU or an
Intel one.

So, did they switch back to that expensive Windows 11 Pro that they paid
so much money for?

I reformatted my Windows XP laptop and did a full install of Lubuntu.

The Fedora box has been up 41 days, the Ubuntu 19. All reboots were
planned.

Memcheck and fsck anyone?

Does Windows use all of memory, these days, to avoid disk access?

That reminds me, I still need to find a use for that Fikwot SSD.

My new Mini PC is up for a short amount of time, as I power down to boot
into Windows 11. I have a batch file that creates a shadow directory,
runs qmake in it, builds the application, packs up all the work products using
7zip, and, if NSIS is installed, builds the installer (which can also be built
on Linux using NSIS).

But I also have MSYS2 installed, and am trying to get the autotools build that
works on Linux to work in MSYS2. It craps out on building a test Qt program.
I copy the code that "configure" generated for the test to the shell, and it
doesn't work. But it uses include paths like "-I../../mingw64/include". If I
remove the "../..", no problem. So why is the ax_have_qt.m4 code adding those
dots to the path?

Time to exercise my (weak) m4 fu.

The characteristic property of hallucinogens, to suspend the boundaries between
the experiencing self and the outer world in an ecstatic, emotional experience,
makes it possible with their help, and after suitable internal and external
preparation...to evoke a mystical experience according to plan, so to speak...
I see the true importance of LSD in the possibility of providing material aid
to meditation aimed at the mystical experience of a deeper, comprehensive
reality. Such a use accords entirely with the essence and working character
of LSD as a sacred drug.
