How to boot from usb windows 11 lenovo. I disabled fast startup but still can't reach the bios

To boot your Lenovo laptop from a USB drive with Windows 11, follow these steps: ## Accessing BIOS/Boot Menu 1. Restart your Lenovo laptop. 2. As soon as the Lenovo logo appears, repeatedly press the F12 key to enter the Boot Menu[1][5]. On some models, you may need to press Fn+F12 instead[6]. 3. If F12 doesn't work, try F1, F2, or F10 to access the BIOS settings[7]. ## Preparing BIOS Settings 1. Once in BIOS, navigate to the "Security" tab and disable "Secure Boot" if it's enabled[1]. 2. Go to the "Startup" tab and enable the "F12 Boot Menu" option[2]. 3. In the "Configuration" tab, ensure USB support is enabled[2]. 4. Save changes and exit BIOS (usually by pressing F10). ## Booting from USB 1. Plug in your bootable Windows 11 USB drive. 2. Restart your laptop and press F12 to enter the Boot Menu. 3. Use the arrow keys to select your USB drive from the list of boot devices[5][6]. 4. Press Enter to boot from the selected USB drive. ## Troubleshooting If you're still having issues: - Try a different USB port on your laptop[3]. - Ensure your USB drive is properly formatted and contains a valid Windows 11 installation[3]. - Check if your Lenovo model supports Windows 11 and meets the minimum system requirements. - Update your BIOS to the latest version, as this can sometimes resolve boot issues[3]. If all else fails, you may need to perform a clean installation of Windows 10 first and then upgrade to Windows 11 using the installation assistant[3]. Remember, the exact steps may vary slightly depending on your specific Lenovo model. If you continue to experience difficulties, consult Lenovo's support documentation for your particular laptop model.

Navigating the Funding Dilemma: Sustainable Solutions for Open Source Projects

Open source projects often face challenges in securing adequate funding, donations, and contributions for several reasons: ## Limited Awareness and Visibility Many open source projects struggle to gain visibility among potential users and contributors[1]. Without a large user base or strong marketing efforts, it can be difficult to attract donations or financial support. ## Misconceptions About Open Source There's a common misconception that open source software should be entirely free, including development costs[2]. This leads to a reluctance among users to financially support projects they benefit from. ## Funding Models and Sustainability Traditional funding models often don't align well with open source development: **Donation Challenges:** Relying solely on donations is rarely sustainable for most projects[5]. Only a small percentage of users typically contribute, and amounts are often insufficient to support full-time development. **Venture Capital Complications:** While VC funding can provide initial boosts, it often leads to pressure for monetization that may conflict with open source principles[3]. ## The "Free Rider" Problem Many companies and individuals use open source software without contributing back, either financially or through code contributions[2]. This creates an imbalance where projects provide value but don't receive proportional support. ## Your Proposed Solution Your idea of a self-hosted project with a demo featuring ads presents an interesting middle ground: **Potential Benefits:** - Provides a steady revenue stream without compromising the open source nature of the project. - Allows users to try the software before committing to self-hosting. - Could generate enough income to support full-time developers. **Considerations:** - Ensure the ad implementation doesn't compromise user privacy or experience. - Be transparent about how ad revenue is used to support the project. - Consider offering an ad-free option for users who prefer to donate directly. This approach aligns with the concept of "open core" models, where the core functionality remains open source while additional features or services generate revenue[1]. It could potentially address some of the funding challenges while maintaining the project's open source ethos. ## Balancing Open Source and Sustainability Your proposal represents a pragmatic approach to the open source funding dilemma. By generating revenue through non-intrusive means, the project can maintain its open source nature while working towards financial sustainability. This model could potentially: 1. Attract more contributors by demonstrating a path to sustainable development. 2. Provide resources for marketing and outreach, increasing the project's visibility. 3. Allow for consistent maintenance and feature development, benefiting the entire user community. While not a perfect solution, this approach offers a promising compromise between open source ideals and the practical needs of sustainable software development.

My father asked me to set up a Raspberry Pi with the essentials to try out Linux and potentially ditch Windows if he likes it enough. He specifically requested YouTube, Amazon Kindle, GIMP, Audacity, KeePass, and a text editor like Notepad. I've installed Armbian Debian with the Cinnamon desktop environment. What would you have chosen? As for the essentials, I'm not sure where to find a list of the most commonly used programs to install. I've just installed what I think he would appreciate, for example, Firefox with uBlock Origin, SponsorBlock, KeePassXC-Browser, and G App Launcher extensions. Now I'm going to see if I can install Amazon Kindle and Notepad using Wine, along with a couple of alternatives like Calibre and gedit. Then I'll set up a Google Drive folder so he can share his files with his main computer until he decides to switch. Finally, I'll use Timeshift to create a snapshot after I've finished setting everything up. What essentials am I missing? Do you have any suggestions? edit: I've realized that this is a bad idea. I'll just install Linux on one of his spare x86 computers and explain that many programs aren't available for ARM. Then, after he gets used to Linux, I can install it on his current laptop and maybe move his Windows installation to the spare computer, if I can figure out how to do that.

    I’m particularly concerned about the potential for automods to become a problem on Lemmy, especially if it gains popularity like Reddit. I believe a Discourse-style trust level system could be a better approach for Lemmy’s moderation, but instead of rewarding “positive contributions,” which often leads to karma farming, the system should primarily recognize user engagement based on time spent on the platform and reading content. Users would gradually earn privileges based on their consistent presence and understanding of the community’s culture, rather than their ability to game the system or create popular content. This approach would naturally distribute moderation responsibilities among seasoned users who are genuinely invested in the community, helping to maintain a healthier balance between user freedom and community standards, and reducing the reliance on bot-driven moderation and arbitrary rule enforcement that often plagues many Reddit communities.

    A more robust approach could involve combining multiple user engagement metrics like votes, reading time and number of comments, along with a system that sorts posts depending on how they compare to their community averages. This system would be less susceptible to manipulation by new accounts or brigading, as it would require genuine engagement across multiple factors to influence a post's ranking.

    The decentralized nature of Lemmy, while appealing in theory, creates significant frustration in practice due to widespread instance blocking. Finding an ideal instance becomes a daunting task, as users must navigate a complex web of inter-instance politics and restrictions. This challenge is further compounded for those who prioritize factors like low latency or specific content policies. Lemmy's architecture heavily favors instance-level configurations, leaving individual users with limited control over their experience. The only reliable solutions seem to be either hosting a personal instance—a technical hurdle for many—or simply hoping that your chosen instance's admins align with your preferences and don't block communities you enjoy. This politicking ultimately undermines the platform's potential.

    There were several issues on GitHub regarding proposals on how to solve the low visibility of small instances. However, after the Scaled Sort was implemented, all those issues were closed, yet the problem persists. I continue to use Reddit the same as before because I primarily used it for niche communities, which are lacking here. The few times I've posted to a niche community here, I've either received no answers or been subject to drive-by downvotes, likely from users not even subscribed to the community. As a result, I now only post on Lemmy when the post is directed to a large community, and I use Reddit for the rest.

    Even large social media platforms have trouble dealing with bots, and with AI advancements, these bots will become more intelligent. It feels like a hopeless task to address. While you could implement rules, you would likely only eliminate the obvious bots that are meant to be helpful. There may be more sophisticated bots attempting to manipulate votes, which are more difficult to detect, especially on a federated platform.

    My biggest issue is that when I post, I'm torn between sharing in the community of the largest instance or in the instance I prefer the most. Posting in the largest instance offers more visibility for my post, but it feels like I'm not supporting the instance I truly like. The communities are too fragmented.

    Navigating Package Managers: A Comparison of APT, Snap, Flatpak, and Pacstall for Debian and Ubuntu

    Debian and Ubuntu users have several package management options available, each with its own strengths and use cases. Let's compare apt, snap, flatpak, and pacstall: ## APT (Advanced Package Tool) APT is the traditional package manager for Debian-based systems, including Ubuntu. **Advantages:** - Native to Debian and Ubuntu - Extensive repository of software packages - Efficient use of storage space - Fast application startup times - Well-established and widely supported **Disadvantages:** - Can be challenging to install the latest software versions - Potential for dependency conflicts - Limited to packages available in official repositories ## Snap Snap is a universal package manager developed by Canonical, the company behind Ubuntu. **Advantages:** - Self-contained packages with bundled dependencies - Easy installation of proprietary software - Automatic updates - Sandboxed applications for improved security - Works across multiple Linux distributions **Disadvantages:** - Larger package sizes due to bundled dependencies - Slower application startup times - Limited to Canonical's Snap Store - Some users dislike the automatic updates ## Flatpak Flatpak is another universal package manager, developed by the open-source community. **Advantages:** - Distribution-agnostic - Self-contained packages with bundled dependencies - Sandboxed applications for improved security - Supports multiple software versions side-by-side - Decentralized package distribution **Disadvantages:** - Larger package sizes due to bundled dependencies - Manual updates required - May require additional setup on some systems ## Pacstall Pacstall is a relatively new package manager that aims to bring AUR-like functionality to Ubuntu and other Debian-based systems. **Advantages:** - Provides access to a wider range of software - Community-driven package repository - Easier installation of software not available in official repositories - Supports building packages from source **Disadvantages:** - Smaller package selection compared to other options - Less established and potentially less stable - May require more technical knowledge to use effectively ## Comparison Table | Feature | APT | Snap | Flatpak | Pacstall | |---------|-----|------|---------|----------| | Package size | Small | Large | Large | Varies | | Startup speed | Fast | Slower | Moderate | Fast | | Automatic updates | No | Yes | No | No | | Sandboxing | No | Yes | Yes | No | | Proprietary software | Limited | Yes | Yes | Yes | | Cross-distro support | No | Yes | Yes | Limited | | Package creation | Complex | Moderate | Moderate | Simple | | Community support | Extensive | Growing | Growing | Limited | In practice, many users opt to use a combination of these package managers. APT remains the primary method for system updates and core software, while snap, flatpak, or pacstall can be used for specific applications or newer software versions not available through APT[1][2][4]. For example, you might use APT for most system packages, Flatpak for desktop applications that require the latest versions, and Snap for proprietary software like Zoom or Spotify that isn't easily available through other means[4]. Ultimately, the choice between these package managers depends on your specific needs, the software you use, and your preferences regarding factors like update frequency, security, and system resource usage.

    I've explored a few platforms within the Fediverse, but most of them seem to be inspired by and mimic existing mainstream social media platforms like Twitter, Reddit, and Facebook. While this familiarity can be comforting, I can't help but wonder if there are any truly innovative and original platforms out there that offer a unique experience. What makes them unique? How do they reimagine the social media experience?

    Cold Treatment

    If you're experiencing flu symptoms, there are several self-care strategies and remedies you can try to alleviate the discomfort and manage the fever. It's important to note that if your symptoms are severe, persist beyond a week, or you have difficulty breathing, you should seek medical attention. Here are some recommendations based on the provided sources: ### Rest and Hydration - **Get plenty of rest**: Sleep helps your body fight off infection[1]. - **Drink fluids**: Staying hydrated keeps the throat moist and helps prevent dehydration. Warm liquids like broth, caffeine-free tea, or warm water with honey can soothe the throat. Cold treats such as ice pops may also provide relief. Avoid caffeine and alcohol[1][2]. ### Gargle and Humidify - **Saltwater gargle**: Dissolve 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of table salt in 4 to 8 ounces of warm water. Gargle the solution and then spit it out. This can help reduce throat swelling and discomfort[1]. - **Humidify the air**: Use a cool-air humidifier to add moisture to the air, or sit in a steamy bathroom for several minutes[1]. ### Lozenges and Pain Relief - **Lozenges or hard candy**: These can soothe the throat. However, they should not be given to children age 4 and younger due to the choking risk[1]. - **Pain relievers**: Over-the-counter pain medications like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) can ease pain and reduce fever. Remember, never give aspirin to children or teenagers[1][3]. ### Avoid Irritants - **Stay away from cigarette smoke and cleaning products** that can further irritate the throat[1]. ### Alternative Remedies - **Herbal remedies**: Slippery elm, licorice root, and marshmallow root are commonly used to soothe a sore throat. These are often found in teas, sprays, or lozenges. However, check with your doctor before using any herbal remedies, especially if you're taking prescription medications, or if you're pregnant or breastfeeding[1]. ### Additional Tips - **Antihistamines**: May help if your sore throat is due to allergies by reducing congestion and post-nasal drip[5]. - **Hot shower**: Breathing in steam from a hot shower can loosen mucus and moisturize the throat[5]. - **Elevate your head while sleeping**: This can help reduce swelling and make breathing easier[5]. Remember, these remedies are intended to provide relief from symptoms. If your sore throat is caused by a bacterial infection, such as streptococcal pharyngitis, your doctor may prescribe antibiotics. It's crucial to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed to fully resolve the infection and prevent complications[1]. If your symptoms do not improve or worsen, or if you experience severe pain, difficulty breathing, or a high fever, seek medical attention promptly.

    #### Ingredients: - 2 cups all-purpose flour - 1 cup sugar - 1 cup olive oil - 1 cup milk - 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder - 1 teaspoon aniseed - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon #### Instructions: 1. Preheat the oven to 180ºC (350°F). 1. In a large bowl, whisk everything together. 1. Pour the batter into a parched sheet pan. 1. Bake for 20 minutes. 1. Allow to cool before serving. I make it without almonds and without a mold for simplicity. I then cut it into pieces and store what I'm not going to eat the same day in an airtight container in the freezer. It can also be made with a round mold. Usually, halfway through baking, it's sprinkled with almonds and sugar. This is a simpler variation I make of the following recipes: - [Torta de aceite de la Serranía de Ronda](https://youtube.com/watch?v=1-Cd3NP4A1I) - [Torta de pellizco de Ubrique](https://www.directoalpaladar.com/postres/receta-torta-pellizco-ubrique-esponjoso-bizcocho-dulce-sabor-tradicional-que-se-mide-vaso) - [Torta de Vélez](https://youtube.com/watch?v=1zzohsnE42I)

    Hello everyone, I've recently stumbled upon a fanfic that I'm eager to dive into. I found it on FicHub, but unfortunately, it's incomplete there. The complete version is available on FicWad, but I've been having some trouble downloading it as an epub. I've tried using FanFicFare, but it keeps prompting me to log in. I attempted to register on FicWad to resolve this, but I haven't received any confirmation email from them. Moreover, I'm not quite sure how to use a login when using FanFicFare. My ultimate goal is to listen to the fanfic rather than read it. I usually have my phone read it to me using text-to-speech (TTS), so downloading the fanfic is just a step towards that. However, if there's an easier way to listen to the fanfic without having to download it as an epub, I'd be interested to know. That being said, I still prefer to download and listen to it on my phone since that's what I'm accustomed to. If anyone has any advice or solutions to these issues, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hey everyone, I've got a chrome oven ([Moulinex Optimo OX4848](https://www.amazon.es/dp/B06XGTZND6)) with some seriously stubborn burnt-on food splatters that just won't budge. I've tried degreaser (KH-7) and scrubber sponge, steel sponge scrubber, and even a sanding block. The sanding block was working, but I heard it might damage the chrome plating, leading to rusting underneath. The trickiest spots are on the top of the oven, and I'm wondering if it's safe to turn the oven over to let some steaming water loosen up those burnt spots. What would you all recommend as the best way to thoroughly clean those difficult burnt-on spots without damaging the chrome plating? I want to get it really clean without risking damage to the oven surface itself. Any specific products or techniques you have used that worked well for this? I'm in Spain, so I'd appreciate recommendations for specific products that I can find in local supermarkets (all the products available in Spanish supermarkets are in soysuper.com).

    List best teeth whitening tips, does uv light work?

    Here are some of the best tips for teeth whitening: 1. Use a whitening toothpaste and an electric toothbrush. The best electric toothbrushes for whitening are the Goby brush and the Oral-B 7000[1]. 2. Get a professional tooth whitening treatment. This involves the application of a high concentration of carbamide or hydrogen peroxide onto the teeth[1]. 3. Use custom whitening gel trays. These trays are made and custom-fitted by your dentist based on unique impressions of your teeth[1]. 4. Apply whitening strips[1]. 5. Use baking soda toothpaste. Baking soda is a mild abrasive that can help remove stains from the surface of your teeth[5][7]. 6. Try oil pulling[1]. 7. Practice good oral hygiene[1]. 8. Regular dental checkups are essential[1]. 9. Prevent teeth stains caused by food[1]. 10. Quit smoking & tobacco use[1][3]. 11. Consider getting veneers for a more permanent solution[1]. As for UV light, it's not recommended for teeth whitening. Studies have shown that UV light does not provide long-term effects and may harm oral tissues, create a greater possibility for teeth sensitivity through dehydration, and put patients at risk of high levels of radiation to sensitive areas[2][4][6][8]. The use of UV light for teeth whitening can be four times more dangerous than sunbathing and can cause toothaches, mouth infections, stomach problems, and nerve damage[8]. In-office treatments that use a combination of hydrogen peroxide gel and UV light are considered safe and effective when performed by a professional, but at-home UV light kits are not recommended due to the potential for user error and damage[6][10]. Before starting any teeth-whitening process at home, it's recommended to talk with your dentist to see what they may recommend for your specific goals[7].
