I would suggest watching this video about algorithmic redistricting and how it can be used to get nearly any result you want given enough time and computation and getting "reasonable" looking districts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lq-Y7crQo44

I just read the while thing and it is in there. Should be near the top half if memory serves me

I would suggest not doing this if you have glass shelving in your freezer. You'd probably only want to do this with a thick plastic that won't shatter from thermal shock of putting the hot pot/pan on some towels.

Pretty sure someone hallucinated this or there is another Phineas Gage I can't find because this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phineas_Gage had a 3 foot iron tamping rod put through their skull by a powder charge.

A gentle reminder that you know about them and are available but putting no pressure on them would probably help them. Unsure if it will cause them to open up more, but if your goal is making sure they are ok, I don't think reaching out would be a bad idea.

you might be able to wire up https://www.wolframalpha.com/ to your search bar for those sort of conversions or calculations. I love using it for time conversions or time zone conversions.

I mean it took all of 30 seconds of having not used in it a few years to find the eclipse selection tool, force it to a circle and fill it with color. If you have a fancy tablet you could probably even put some patterns in it too but that is not a skill I have

So compatibility mode did work and now I'm just upset with how difficult it is to paste an image into discord but that seems like another issue for a different thread

Sadly there weren't any good logs in the installer debug logs, but the syslog had a good lead to follow up on

Still running into issues, but I think this link might be a good next step. Commenting with the link now before I restart the live environment https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=2523101&hilit=INFO%3A+task+ubiquity+blocked#p2523101. It seems to indicate that multiple people are having this issue with linux mint 22 and that it might be related to graphics device differences/issues and several people said that they were able to install successfully after rebooting and selecting the compatibility mode setting when booting the live environment. Going to give that a shot and see if it resolve the kernel messages in syslog indicating that ubuitity has been blocked from starting for XYZ seconds that get printed out periodically.

This did get me on an interesting path. Seems like ubiquity is getting blocked from running which is stalling the installer. Going to see if I can download a newer iso and if that fixes the issue

 

I'm unsure what is going wrong and not having any luck finding a command or file I can tail to figure out why it's having so many problems finishing. Last weekend I tried just installing mint to some unused space on a drive but that seemed to get stuck in the same place. This weekend I'm using the "install alongside windows" option in the installer with the same behavior.

This is being installed from a USB drive into an nvme SSD and I'm really lost s to why it would be like this after more than an hour. Any advice on how to figure out why it gets stuck is appreciated. Hoping to transfer some files over after this is done and then reevaluate if I want/need the windows partition.
