It doesn’t recommend using reddit. It recommends moving from reddit to lemmy.

Oh no! A bigot doesn’t wanna talk to me.

Do you think people can do that? Just go on the internet and lie?

People of colour aren’t a thing anywhere? Damn, gotta inform like… 6.5 billion people they don’t exist.

Do you fail to see how people of certain socioeconomic backgrounds and racial backgrounds may have different values and viewpoints thus making them worthy of inclusion by virtue of having different values and viewpoints?

Like… I feel like you’re focused on the racial background of this while ignoring the fact that -to paraphrase you- Poor little Mayo kids will also benefit from DEI practices that admit people based on personal experience over “qualification”.

Isn’t part of the American dream that anyone, of any make and model can find opportunity if they talk to the right person?

The gays vs Gays

The blacks vs Blacks

The poors vs the poor

Coloured People vs People of Colour

Okay, so since you don’t recognise that people of colour are a thing outside of America…

Is it not a DEI program to provide Diverse, Equitable and Inclusive school admissions to the poor.

Not American here: isn’t a large proportion of the USA’s impoverished population made up of immigrants and people of colour?

So… Would that make poverty BS a pseudoscientific category (partly) defined by skin colour?

Yeah, RFID may be a shit way to go tbh. I was definitely thinking just traditional barcode scanners attached to a small computer on the cart.

I’m with you. Automatically charging sounds like a nightmare. I still always want a human to verify everything a computer says. I don’t trust a corporate entity to not try and rio me off.

Very interesting! I haven’t had the chance to do groceries in France yet. I’d love to see it though. It just seems so nice.

Well it’s a good thing they hardly ever employ cashiers and make me go through self-checkout. I’d never steal from self-checkout.

I’m guessing those checkouts you linked use some sort of RFID chip in the tag? Pretty interesting!

how are you booting windows from systemd?

I’m not. I ran some Systemd-analyze, blame etc once Fedora started up and saw that most of my startup lag was caused by a specific drive on boot.

systemd is not part of the bootloader.

Yes, and so I used the systemd tools to figure out what was causing my issues on boot.

As I explained in a reply in this thread it seems my issue is mostly resolved for now. The bootloader was stalling on initializing a pair of drives I have in RAID for system backups on the M$ side.

This is turn, when running -analyze or other tools showed the drive that contained my Win10 machine stalling out and waiting 45+ seconds to initialise. Because /it/ was actually waiting for the RAID drives to sort it the hell out. So, it looked like there was a conflict between both boot disks when in reality the stall was a symptom of Linux not playing nice with RAID.

I wrongly assumed it was a boot disk conflict similar to some Windows dual boots where the two disks may be fighting with each other for boot priority and causing a fight until one timed out.

I think I needed to use an internet friend as a rubber ducky to get things working.

Nope!

Root, Boot, /EFI, /home

After writing this post I took the nuclear option and disconnected all drives in the PC save for the one hosting Fedora. Then I incrementally connected them all until failure.

It wasn’t the Win10 drive but the RAID pair I have as a system backup causing the problem. I guess Fedora was trying to mount those disks causing the hold up. Then that made it look like it was the Win10 disk causing the holdup because it was waiting to initialise.

With the RAID drives disconnected everyone is speaking the same language now.
