The "other end" of Route 66. It runs right through Joliet, where I live. We have some landmarks and a Route 66 museum.

If you're looking for a set of gaming + everyday earbuds with unreal battery life, I can recommend the Sony Inzone Buds. Sony advertises up to 12 hours on a single charge!

They have Bluetooth and a wireless dongle for 2.4 Ghz gaming. They also work on both PC and PS5, though I have only used them exclusively on my gaming PC.

If you're curious, I wrote about my experience on my gaming blog: infinitehench.tumblr.com/post/…

»Last week, Kennedy warned in a post on X that the “FDA’s war on public health is about to end. This includes its aggressive suppression of psychedelics, peptides, stem cells, raw milk, hyperbaric therapies, chelating compounds, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, vitamins, clean foods, sunshine, exercise, nutraceuticals and anything else that advances human health and can’t be patented by Pharma.”«

At least a win for the psychedelics community, I guess? 🤔




I agree with Cory Doctorow on Bluesky. I've been saying the same thing, more politely, for a while. Maybe they'll listen, or maybe their business model is to sell their user base, as Twitter did.

Pop!_OS crashes on suspend after updating to Nvidia 560 drivers.


I updated my graphics drivers from nvidia 470 to nvidia 560 due to issues running certain games. It's fixed my gaming issue but reintroduced the problem that kept me from updating for so long.

After setting my computer to "suspend," it wakes up to this screen on all monitors. I am unable to scroll up or type further commands, my only option is to reboot the machine.

  • My graphics card is: NVIDIA Corporation GP104 [GeForce GTX 1070]
  • Nvidia driver version: 560.35.03
  • My desktop environment is Cinnamon X11. (This does not occur on Wayland, but there is no Cinnamon Wayland.)

I can't make heads or tails of this error screen. The best I can understand is the "Fixing recursive fault but reboot is required!" line. How can I get more information? Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? Thanks in advance.

Edit: It seems important to mention this is happening only on X11 (Pop default and Cinnamon), and not on Pop!_OS on Wayland.

Cinnamon on mint has an option to log in using Wayland.

Where you type your login/password (mint uses light-dm as the login window) there is a small icon/avatar to the right. Clicking that gives the DE options:

  • Cinnamon
  • Cinnamon 2D
  • Cinnamon Wayland (experimental)

Since pop is Ubuntu based you could try the Ubuntu ppa (there are other nvidia tips here, too)

And, here's the 550 download directly from nvidia

in reply to masterofn001

Hey thank you! I'll give this a shot tomorrow. I think my install uses GDM, not light-dm? I have Cinnamon but not Cinnamon Wayland in my list.

But I'll try the 550 drivers for sure!
