Millennials fretting about their financial future can take comfort in knowing they are on track to retire in a better financial position than they probably think.

A lot of things were supposed to be better than we thought in the beginning

network-connected wrenches

Do wrenches really need to be networked? Honest question

What’s as big as a house, burns 20 liters of fuel every hour, puts out a shit-load of smoke and noise, and cuts an apple into three pieces?

A Soviet machine made to cut apples into four pieces!

Microsoft acquired Github and the discussions around the future of opensource on a microsoft owned infrastructure

Personally I'm impressed it took them so long to start driving it to the ground

I moved to Codeberg

Codeberg is a non-profit, community-led organization that aims to help free and open source projects prosper by giving them a safe and friendly home

After reading the title, I did not expect this to get even more fucked up

Miranda-Jara was initially in a relationship with the girl's mother but when things soured between the two, mom allowed Miranda-Jara to move on to her then-12-year-old daughter. Eventually, they would begin living together as a couple

The more I think about it, the less sense this graphic has

1. If not per sq km, it should at least be per capita
   just checking on wikipedia, divided by area GB should have bar around twice high as Germany. 209k m^2 vs 357k m^2
2. and what does it mean 1 datacenter in the first place?
   big as a city sprawling datacenter complex and a bunch of racks in the cellar both count as 1?

Behold! The power of open source!

I think that's already patched

"API change is not a big deal, look how many people logged in last week"

I guess that, with the source narrowed down to the plant, this is the next question but

One theory is that the cinnamon may have been contaminated for economic reasons, agency officials said. That could mean an ingredient is added or subtracted from a food to to boost its value. For example, compounds like red brick, red lead salt, lead oxide and lead chromate, which mirror cinnamon’s red color, have been added to increase the value of the spice, research shows.

and then

FDA officials said they “cannot take direct action” with Negasmart and are relying on officials in Ecuador for the investigation into the company’s actions. Negasmart does not ship product directly to the U.S. and of Negasmart’s customers, only Austrofoods shipped foods to the U.S., the agency said.

In general whatever anyone does to anything, current userbase will 90% of the time be against it. But

"Next, we'll remove all the action buttons with their superfluous interaction counts from the main timeline," Musk posted in a subscriber-only post on X in October of last year. "Just view count will show, unless you tap into a post."

So the main thing will be views. Not how many agree, how many object. Views
And probably it will also become the main analytic datapoint

Shit in, shit out

The whole point of ssh-agent is to remember your passphrase. If you don't want to do that your problem might be that for some reason ssh client doesn't pick up your key. Try defining it for the host

Also, there's -v flag for ssh. Use it to debug what's going on when it doesn't try to use your key

I agree that this is important news but what does it have to do with technology?

I'm not convinced by the premise of this statement

Scientific innovations should make ‘zero to one’ breakthroughs, such as the mobile phone or the combustion engine, but are instead making ‘one to many’ improvements to existing innovations

Maybe we are simply past the curve where a few people can innovate a breakthrough and now it has to come from a lot of data gathered from existing implementations? In order to invent a cellphone a lot of technologies had to be improved compared to their first introduction. And get cheap enough to enable experimentation

Buying any game after 3-5 years is the way to go. The bugs are fixed, patches are out, so mods are stable and most of the time you can find a sale where it costs 10-20€. And if you forget about it before that time, that means the game was not worth it

24h for people to react to a comment in some post?

I think you under-advertised your proposal

I use OsmAnd~. Mainly to analyze my skating routes (average speed, distance, etc) and planning sightseeing routes when on vacation.

For finding commute an app from local public transport is still the best and google maps are better than osmand, but for navigation on foot it's very good. And you can download the region earlier, so when you use it, you don't need that much data.

Illusion — Why do we keep believing that AI will solve the climate crisis (which it is facilitating), get rid of poverty (on which it is heavily relying), and unleash the full potential of human creativity (which it is undermining)?

Because we keep reading sensationalist advertisements presented as articles instead of experimenting with it ourselves, understanding what it is

And unfortunately, this article is also just a response to media clickbait, not a discussion point it tries to look like

Tinkering is all fun and games, until it’s 4 am, your vision is blurry, and thinking straight becomes a non-option, or perhaps you just get overly confident, type something and press enter before considering the consequences of the command you’re about to execute… And then all you have is a kernel panic and one thought bouncing in your head: “damn, what did I expect to happen?”.

Nah, that's when the fun really starts! ;)

The package refused to either work or install complaining that the version of glibc was incorrect… So, I installed glibc from Debian’s repos.

:D That one is a classic. Most distributions don't include packagers from other distros because 99% of the time it's a bad idea. But with Arch you can do whatever you want, of course

My two things:

• I've heard about some new coreutils (rm, cp, cat... this time the name really fits the contents :D) and I decided to test it out. Of course it was conflicting with my current coreutils package and I couldn't just replace it because deleting the old package would break requirements. So without thinking I forced the package manager to delete it "I'll install a new one in just a second". Turns out it's hard to install a package without cp, etc :D
• I don't remember what I was doing but I overwrote the first bytes of hdd. Meaning my partition table disappeared. Nothing could be mounted, no partitions found. Seemingly a brick.
  Turns out, if you run a rescue iso, ask it to try and recognize partitions and recreate the table without formatting, Linux will come back to life as if nothing happened

Captive animal facilities where game species can be raised and hunted were banned in Montana under a 2000 ballot initiative

I think they took too big swig from twistonium bottle. Instead of "guy was organizing an illegal thing and it turned out he jumped through quite a few hoops to get to that point", they made it sound like the breeding part was bad

When I was joining ~a month ago the situation was very different

I tried lemmy.one - had some issues joining
I saw beehaw.org - no downvotes - not my jam
I saw lemmygrad.ml - too political for my tastes
I saw sopuli.xyz - most of local posts and server maintenance posts were in language I don't speak - maybe I can find something fitting me more?
I saw lemmy.world - small but not looking like private, in Europe, so pings should be ok and description seemed fine
I also saw lemmy.ml - seemed like the main instance with the most users - having some understanding of federation from Mastodon migration I decided to spread the load...

And here we are :D

I think you might be hitting something else besides the shower

To me it looks like the judge wants something to be seen. Wealthy-and-connected privilege? Maybe even these documents show how deep into the known names this hole runs? Without the ambiguity of "the only documented thing is a dinner"

But I'm not an expert on the issue and judges in general, so maybe I'm misinterpreting something

Antichamber is hidden gem or simply forgotten? I don't know how much attention it got in its time.
It's a puzzle platformer but I was feeling my brain bend the whole game. And at the same time I never felt like the new mechanic was explained too little or something was artificially dragged out. Very good design.

IMO it was better than Portals

wrote a library in BASIC for screen / window applications in DOS. (you know, pop-up text-windows and so on). How do I do that on linux (in C)?
(...)
I know there exist things like QT and ncurses

So it's graphical interface we are after or text based?

For text, I agree with others, ncurses

For graphical

• pyGTK
  basically everything you need, some learnig curve as it's big and versatile. But to be honest, when trying to achieve something I'd suggest to start from GTK reference to me it somehow conveys the logic better than the PyGTK reference
• Kivy
  haven't used it, but might be fun to use
• wxWidgets
  very cross-platform. Not only you can use it to write UI that will require minor fixes to have the same code for Windows and Linux at the same time, you can also tell it whether the toolkit used under the hood on Linux should be QT or GTK
• Tk
  old, simple (more fancy things need some gymnastics) but simple (easy to use) and supported in Python out of the box (you don't even need to install anything)
• QT
  I'm putting it here just for fairness. I don't like it, don't like its signal-slot design, I think it's hogging up too much resources. But last time I used it was ~10 years ago and in the end, it does in fact work

Regarding Wayland, looking at this it seems that it might be pretty straightforward but then for example sway seems to be defining seats a little bit different. So it might require some tinkering in the end, depending which compositor you decide to use.
Loginctl seems to be X/Wayland independent and useful in both.

From what I've found it seems that there are more questions on the internet regarding something not working well in multi-seat or needing a patch for that, than how to set the multi-seat up. Situations like this usually mean that setting this thing up is quite straightforward. It might also be a niche, though

WONTFIX: Works as intended

your everyday web browser

I only see chromium referenced, where's firefox?

As language-wide change: this will require additional checks, the first thing embedded developers will ask is "how do we disable it?"
For personal growth: yeah, it's a nice project :)
For production code: why reinvent the wheel? GLib is LGPL

Are you looking for this?

And sorry but... RTFM ;)

And when you're ready, I suggest trizen for AUR management

EDIT: yeah, you can use npm, rpm, deb, snap, etc. But from my experience using the packages and package manager from the distro you're using breaks less often. Only python packages in a venv I'd consider an exception.
And in case of Arch, if you really can't wait a few days for the newest version of a thing, that's what AUR *-git packages are for

You mean like Ubisoft just did?

But it's still C

I think ++C is going full ahead to D

"And now, Einstein will explain WiFi for you"

Oh gods, now I'm starting to count how much time will pass until I see an ad like that...

I haven't gotten to it for myself but I think Kodi+something like RaspberryPI is your solution

EDIT: or just install a Linux on some one-board computer or old laptop and check how HDMI-CEC is working. You'll need to install virtual keyboard too

For some reason I also read "first" the first time I looked at the title

At least you didn't get thrown through the window, as in the meme comic ;)

Without system/external libraries C is more like easier to read assembly, without much on top of it. There are no strings as we understand them in assembly, only pointers to sequential lump of RAM where NULL character means end of string. That's why C is so great as language for libraries at the level where strings are only for debugging and a waste of computing time anyway.
But for some reason often instead of writing a library in C and then linking to it in some high level language to handle the operations where strings are common, people try to use the hammer for everything and end up with overflowing buffers or trying to make exceptions in the kernel for D-Bus

Well, if it's completely dry before plugging in, it can definitely get rid of dirt. On hot surfaces it sometimes gets baked in and compressed air is too little

Just put it in rice afterwards /meme

Some time ago there was a post on lemmy with a question how to not poop for 3 days. OP was adamant on not saying what do they need it for. The post is now deleted but I think it might be a clue... ;D
