Virtual Machine Manager is what you’re looking for I think

I’m very much not an expert, but I’d imagine it’s similar to how AES-NI works: the task is CPU/GPU-intensive until specific instructions are designed to do whatever blackmagicfuckery level math is required, and once it’s in hardware it’s more both power efficient and faster.

No worries. I wasn’t super clear originally and it’s confusing as hell tbh. I just want people to be able to access things they find helpful

I am aware of the difference. The terminology is confusing and I was kinda stoned while typing that.

He specifically said “any detectable amount of total THC” though, which means the difference is moot. Total THC is THCA in this context.

EDIT:

So there is no miscommunication, yeah federal law allows a max of 0.3% D9 THC at the pre-harvest test (I forget the exact specifics, it’s been a while). Newsom said CBD that contains any detectable percentage of total THC is banned in the state of California by executive order with no oversight. The scientific facts of the latter are not the same as the former and Newsom is an idiot for thinking they are.

Newsom announced new emergency regulations on Friday that would outlaw hemp products with any “detectable amount of total THC.” Hemp products that don’t have THC would be further limited to five servings per package, and sales would be restricted to adults 21 and older.

So:

A. He banned all hemp flower and most hemp-derived products in CA in one fell swoop because he doesn’t understand how the relation of THC:CBD works in the plant or the entourage effect or the fact that federally it’s a total of 0.3% maximum, which ain’t getting anybody high.

B. He limited packaging for what reason, exactly? It doesn’t get you high. Even if it did, why?

C. An age limit, that I can agree with. It should probably be 18 for this like it is most everywhere else in the US, but if you want people to be able to die for their country and can’t have a CBD gummy, go ahead Newsom.

Age, testing, and labeling requirements are great. Unscientific regulations by executive order that will make people’s lives worse are not.

I’ve installed Arch a dozen times at least over the years on various machines.

First off, some advice. People will tell you to watch videos or read some specific guide, and by all means do so to get an overview of the process, but I’d highly recommend double-checking everything against the official install guide. It’s fairly terse but contains everything you need to do, and if you research the topics you don’t understand you’ll learn a lot quickly. This is best done in a virtual machine the first time unless you have a spare machine laying around.

Overall, it amounts to creating the install medium, booting it, any post boot configuration (including networking), partitioning and mounting your disk(s), writing some config files and installing the base packages and a bootloader, plus anything else you may need or want. I’m glossing over a lot of individual steps and “anything you may need or want” is essentially endless, but you get the point.

Overall it’s involved but not terribly difficult. Like I think others have said, fairly similar to building a desktop from parts. Gentoo is a step up, and installing Linux From Scratch another few steps above that.

In case anyone is curious, it’s essentially the same as the PC version on release. 4 apps total (If there are more I can’t find them), 0 other features worth mentioning besides an “install” button.

You end up saying something similar to yourself after you read and fail to understand a LKML archive because it’s the only available documentation on this specific flag that you may or may not need and if you don’t need it why not turn it off. Repeat this many times for much learning (eventually).

It was a great experience but next time I’m building everything not strictly necessary as a module.

In my experience, a lot of “devoutly” religious people are like this.

I grew up Independent Fundamental Baptist (westboro, but less vocally homophobic) and my dad told me a few years ago he secretly kept a stash of alcohol in the garage while he was quite aggressively teaching that the Bible expressly forbade consumption of alcohol that could get you drunk because of a long argument that basically amounts to “Paul said so.” (The proper response to that is “fuck Paul”, obv. Paul was an asshat.)

You can twist anything into anything if you try hard enough, and they’re really good at it.

I knew there was something I missed lol

I haven’t noticed anything less than what I would consider “good” personally, but I’ve heard things from a few people that it’s generally good quality but not perfectly consistent, which is fair enough imo.

It’s not perfect, but given that it’s a free mod they knocked it out of the park. Buggy obviously, but the world and level design are excellent, the writing is generally good, and they added back skill checks and other things. I’ve been having a lot of fun.

Is he ever right about literally anything?

Fallout 4, Minecraft, and Flightgear. I love FO4, have been getting into Minecraft, and Flightgear is an endless hole I didn’t have the hardware to use. They’re also all easily moddable.

Fallout London mostly. It was a pain to install and it crashes occasionally but it’s so much fun.

Library that is also the first book in the Bible has 99.999% of everything I’ve ever looked for.

D8 and D10, sure (though their actual safety is a different issue) but the stuff sold as THCA is generally just regular weed, chosen and cultivated to be under the legal limit for ‘free’ D9.

You do you, but the chemistry is what it is.

That’s just it. It is literally chemically the exact same thing, just called something different because the people that wrote the law weren’t paying attention when they wrote it.

THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) is the same shit, no matter whether it’s directly referred to as THCA is not. It’s the precursor to D9 THC (Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol), present in all strains of C. sativa, and gets decarboxylated into D9 when heated. It’s named specifically on stuff you buy online because the law defines D9 itself as the illegal compound. Since D9 directly is only present in trace amounts until you smoke or otherwise heat the plant material, you end with a legal product.

Not a chemist or a lawyer, I just like watching YouTube stoned…

They’re just using Gog as a CDN essentially. They have instructions to grab the downloaded files and zip them into a normal mod format so you can install them however you want.

“It’s not uncommon for larger game companies like Bethesda to have mixed reactions to fan-made projects of this scale, we saw this with things such as Fallout: The Frontier,” says Carter, referencing the game-sized mod for Fallout: New Vegas that launched in 2021. “They often tolerate projects’ like ours’ existence as long as they don’t infringe on their intellectual property or negatively impact their brand.”

That said, I agree with you. The Frontier had issues because they put problematic shit in their mod. Bethesda has explicitly given shoutouts to Sim Settlements (I’m pretty sure there’s others) in the recent past.
