What the Fuck happened with Gen X? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Yeah I'm an older millennial and there are things I don't have in common with younger ones.

Kamala just slips in as a boomer technically, by like a year or something.

I thought millennials started at '82?

With a budget of $120 million, Francis Ford Coppola's "Megalopolis" grossed only $4 million on its opening weekend, making it one of the worst box office openings for a $100M+ movie to date. in c/movies@lemm.ee

Is he holding one of these?

We call it a sausage sizzle (democracy sausage at voting time) and they're delicious 🤤

Yep, and it's compulsory voting, on a sensible day of the week and even pre-poll so you can just go in early if you want to. And sometimes there are sausages.

The last episode of Enterprise is the one before that. There is no Riker's holodeck!

If they do another generation leap they should just copy Scotty's TNG appearance with O'Brien, shot for shot.

what's your favorite thing to put on fries that isn't ketchup? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Oh, no disrespect intended! Where I come from though we use cheese instead of curds, it's practically a national dish.

Cheese and gravy (not the Canadian thing)

Android 15 could bring the tablet taskbar to phones: Here's your first look at the 'tiny' taskbar in c/android@lemdro.id

Huh, I actually had to look at the At a Glance but to see what you were talking about. I've just taken it as a given that I can't use the top 1/3 of the screen or the bottom strip.

I'm not a gestures guy at all, I like buttons!

I feel like I'm the only one who still reverts navigation to the 3 dots and doesn't use any of the new stuff they're releasing.

This taskbar looks like it's going to make things happen without me wanting them to, I hope we can turn it off.

I like it when they do that and also give you a free digital download code so you get both.

Monterey on external SSD not showing in Startup Disk (aussie.zone)
 

I have a 2015 iMac 21.5" that has slowly ground down to crawl. I had this great idea of installing macos on an external SSD (Kingston 2TB) and run it from there instead but no matter what I try I can't get it to work.

At first I downloaded the installer for Monterey but the HDD isn't great and it kept crashing and restarting partway through.

Then I tried installing to the SSD from Recovery (internet recovery wouldn't get past wifi choice so had to use non-internet) but even though the installation went ok it continued to boot from the HDD and in Startup Disk the SSD wouldn't show at all.

Then I made a USB boot stick and did the same steps above with the same result.

The SSD has GUID map and I tried both Mac OS and APFS formatted.

Does anyone have an idea what might be going wrong? Thanks in advance!

Local instance treated as remote (aussie.zone)
 

I'm not sure if I'm doing this wrong but when I browse Everything I can swipe posts away to hide them. But on my local instance when I swipe I get a message the post is on a remote instance. Is there a way to change this?

Installing Batocera (aussie.zone)
 

I've tinkered with Linux installations before but the last time I made changes to a BIOS it looked 8-bit, not like a windows program (I use Macs, for reference).

I have a Dell Inspiron 5502 (2021) that I just want to remove Windows from and install Batocera for gaming, but I can't figure out how to wipe it.

I'm running Batocera from USB but when I go to "Install on a new disk" there are no targets available. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
