And here we have the elusive fibre vampire, found in the midst of feasting on its second most common prey the paper towel roll.
It looks like we have startled it and it is displaying its fangs to ward us off.
This specimen looks to be a young juvenile male just coming into his adult plumage.
We shall leave him in peace to finish his meal.

Easy fix, start giving them a head rub then when they move their head to provide better access to the part they want rubbed or scritched use your other hand to slide the book out.
Or concerned about your fashion choices.
From the birds perspective
Disgusting sick individuals are spamming images that no one should see to various instances.
Try clearing the cache.
Fully close the app, then in your phone’s settings> apps> Sync> storage and cache> then press the “clear cache” button.
He didn’t specify what sort of M.2 SSD he has so I thought that I would throw it out there as an option.
Plus as he said it was for an older computer & was looking for the cheapest adaptor that works, I guessed that he wasn’t too concerned about getting the most performance possible out of the setup.
Startech does a M.2 SSD to 2.5" SATA drive adapter.
Apparently sheets of paper work as well.
I have no issues opening the video using Sync
The void demands to know why you have disturbed it.
I too would like Sync to be able to read & write to the blocked community list on my Lemmy account.
I currently use Connect for Lemmy to do this.
Side of the mouth is scenting to claim you as his.
Pushing his head into your hand is usually saying “Pet me slave and you may live another day”.
Sync for Reddit was a mature app that had plenty of time to be optimised for performance, stability and reduced power usage.
Sync for Lemmy on the other hand while it uses a lot of the same code as its predecessor it’s still less than a month old & still in beta.
It’s going to take time for Lemmy to work out the bugs in their software and for Sync to become as refined as its predecessor.
Do not expect things to work as they do in Windows.
While you can get most things done via a GUI option using the Terminal is much more powerful and gives more information.
This pertains mostly to Laptops and peripherals, but always do a quick Google search to check for any issues.
One of the big issues for people is sound, a lot of computer & parts makers like to use the cheapest no-name parts they can because Windows lets them require “drivers” aka software fixes for poor hardware whereas Linux tends to give unaltered output leading to complaints about sound quality.
You are not going to find software from Adobe, Microsoft office 365 etc running on Linux even using WINE.
Some games will not work on Linux even using the Proton compatibility software.
There is a lot of software made for Linux are made by devs who focus more on the under the hood performance than making the software GUI look pretty. So don’t be put off by the looks of a lot of Linux software.
I highly recommend Using the Alternativeto website to (as the name implies) find alternatives to software you use on Windows.
Setup an external device be it an internal hard drive, external hard drive or NAS as a backup target for your files.
You can use Timeshift to backup the entire drive (and it can reload a chosen backup directly onto the drive), Lucky backup to sync specified folders (either one way or both ways) to your drives or as I do use both.
And backup before doing major updates.
I have Timeshift setup to backup the entire drive (including $home) to a separate internal HDD and Luckybackup set to backup my important folders to an external USB HDD.
As you are learning how to use and navigate you will have accidents that will require a full reinstall, don’t fear this has happened to everyone else and why you backup your files so it’s an annoyance instead of the end of the world.
From what I can tell Rapoo, Kensington & SATECHI all offer various scissor switch keyboards but they are all entry level, home or business keyboards which may not hold up to gaming & most don’t have backlighting.
Another couple of switch you could look at are “Cherry MX ultra low profile tactile” (which look to be a combination of mechanical and scissor) and optical switches.
What you can do is have a 1-2Tb SSD and use that as your day to day drive then use Timeshift to regularly backup the entire drive to a HDD.
I carry 3 (different uses) plus spare batteries in the bag that goes almost everywhere with me (especially to work for night-shift).
I use them on average about 3-4 times a week and often in places/environments that using a phone would destroy it or require a thorough decontamination.
That look is more of a “get the wet food out servant!” to me.
