I'm a unix-guru.
If I were to shave I'd get a -5 penalty on my bash magic.
If I skip showers for a month I can interface directly with any device in /dev
It depends on how far down the rabbithole you go.
I switched to Linux 27 years ago. My wife asks me to help her with her Windows computer every now and then, and I can't really do it for more than a few minutes before my blood pressure is in the risk zone.
On the other hand.. consider if your cat had walked over the keyboard before it rebooted and replaced it all with hhhhgggggggggggggggggggghgf before it auto saved and replaced the document. Would you still be an advocate for auto save?
It sucks to lose work, but this is clearly a user error.
I thought it was an ncurses multiplayer tetris-clone.
We have all universally adopted Rich Communication Services, which is an open standard.
Well, except for Apple. They haven't adopted it.
Additionally, chat monitoring would not apply to accounts used for national security, investigations, or military purposes.
Why do they want to protect the pedophiles working for nations and militaries?
I do the opposite.

People sometimes do this to scout easy targets to rob.
If it didn't move until their next burglary spree, you probably haven't been home since they planted it.
Put it away and ask around if your neighbours had something out of place in their front yard.
Something similar happened to this Finnish chainsaw juggler. He had just come back from performing at Kim Jong-Un's birthday and had a stubborn headache that wouldn't go away. Straight to the mental ward.
Article in Finnish, I'm sure Google translate does a decent job.
It's a cryogenics lab, so icy.
My 350€ three-year old phone has an SoC with 12GB of RAM.
Overwhelmingly positive.
Do you remember when Microsoft tried to patent sudo?
Pepperidge farm remembers.
The article states that part of the compensation was stock and stock options. Likely incentive programs from previous years that finally paid off.
edit: looks like spez got 600k salary, and the rest of the compensation is solely based on the stock's performance.. and he can't cash that out unless someone is willing to buy all that reddit stock.
Consumer rights in the EU are pretty strong. They include two-week free returns, no questions asked, on things purchased online/remote.
These rights do not extend to businesses, though. Sounds like Amazon is not interested in being helpful unless legislation is twisting their arm.
That we do abortions for fun.
I mean, I do do abortions for fun. But not because I'm an atheist.
It think they drew the wrong conclusions.
It's not the high income-countries that are spearheading this decrease. It's the high cost of living-countries.
"Can God microwave a burrito so hot that he himself cannot eat it?"
I was just wondering how they even managed to get publicly listed with that track record. Apparently a reverse merger with a company previously set up for just that purpose is just a slap on the wrist.
PeerTube uses Webtorrents to offload hosting of hueg files.
Odysee uses something similar to do the same. (At least they claim to, but last time I took a dig at it it seemed to be hosted "regularly")
Spotify famously had their own p2p-thing going in their desktop apps in the early days. Saved them a pretty coin back when hosting was expensive.
Coming to a browser near you is IPFS.
It's probably getting more rare as hardware gets more complicated.
You can barely get modern computers to boot without some proprietary blob. MINIX was a great stepping stone back in the day, and ran on plenty of hardware.
I have a sweet spot for MorphOS in my computer collection.
I do love bare-metal programming, but it just isn't feasible for wide targets like modern machines. I guess the next best thing is writing virtual machines for my own needs.
btrfs every day of the week. The only scenario where I'd even consider something else is for databases that would suffer from CoW.
I've been running it on my home server since 2010. The same array has grown from 6x2TB to 6x4TB, one disk at a time as they've failed. Currently sitting at 2x18TB+1x4TB. No data loss even though many drives have failed.
Jolla is the successor to Nokia's Maemo/Meego OS which was proper Linux. Jolla does have seamless Android emulation. They don't do their own phones anymore, though.
Not me, and not Linux, but a school mate found the following bash snippet online :(){ :|:& };:.
Naturally, he tried it on the SunOS servers we had access to for schoolwork. He got his account suspended for the rest of the year.
I think most Linux distros are configured to kill fork bombs nowadays.
BBSes are making a comeback. This time over telnet. They're just as great as they used to be.
It feels like a common and repetitive theme that doesn't bring much discussion to the table. I might be an old grumpy fart, and I probably would've done the same posts back in 1997 when I left Windows NT 4.0 in the rear view mirror.
I'd much prefer to keep the discussion on Linux and not other operating systems. I enjoy AmigaOS and MorphOS as well, but I can't recall anyone every comparing those to Windows on the forums.
Define cold.
I have an air-water heat pump as the only source of heat and hot water in my house. It takes heat from the air outside and dumps it into a 200 litre water tank. I'd guesstimate that 80% of the homes in my neighborhood have the same setup.
Temperatures are going to be around -10°C for the next few days. When the silver falls below -15°C a resistive element kicks in to help the pump. In my climate I won't see more than a handful of those per year.
Nordic models scale down to -30°C before doing the same.
I was torrenting porn with good speed.
I think it's a bit more invasive of a browser to inject shit depending on the sites I visit.
Manjaro also ruined PINE64.
Seems unreasonably slow to me that xterm would take a second to start. My two computers running kernel 6.7 are slow than the machine in the test, both have BTRFS on LUKS.
I tried a cold start of xterm on my older thinkpad with an NVMe drive at ~0.3s.
A cold start on my desktop (also NVMe), 0.08s.
I'm unable to reproduce. I wonder if he might've had a fresh install with some background operations grinding on, or some indexing going on.
We had computers at home when I was little. Vic-20, C64, PCs.
But, of course I wanted a NES like all the other kids. Or a Megadrive/Genesis. But, no, computers are for work. We don't do video games.
So, I've had to make up for that by having a collection of all the consoles I never had. I've had a good run doing software development the last two decades, so I'm financially comfortable. I've recently taken the plunge into becoming an indie game developer. So, I guess the joke's on both me and my parents.
My gaming collection currently has a VIC-20, C64, plus/4, A600, A1200, NES, master system, genesis, WiiU, switch, Gameboy, GBA SP, DS, 3DS and PS Vita. And a miyoo mini, retroid pocket 3+ and a gpi case for emulation.
I enjoyed Rampart tremendously back in the day. It had a lot of ports, but I'm surprised it hasn't had any remakes or clones in the last 30 years.
Sounds like you have short attention span.
I ran Manjaro for a couple of years as my daily driver before moving on to EndeavourOS. At this point I've probably spent an equal amount of time on both distros.
Their holding back of arch packages might sound like a good idea, but in reality not so much. Most of the time the same oopsies slip through with a bit of delay. Other times being out of sync with AUR causes additional issues. Arch stable is already stable, so holding back is just extra work with no gain in my book. Any additional testing effort would be better spent on Arch testing instead of doing the same work with delay.
Mostly I'll just go with M_PI.
355/113 = 3.14159292035398 is close enough for my needs.
I took the dogs for a walk. Gas stations and 24/7 pubs were open.
This cleared out a flea infestation in our dog. We use it preventatively because ticks, as well.
Fleas tend to linger because their eggs shed all over the place. As I recall, frontline had some double action going on by both killing fleas and causing their eggs to hatch into nymphs that never evolve into breeding maturity.
Fleas don't really like biting humans, so any occurrence is a one+off.
