You don’t know untill you try. For me, maybe consuming 400 existential dread doses a day doesn’t register.

I mean no harm.

The point when the AI hallucinations become useful is the point where I raise my eye brows. This not one of those.
I do this exact same expression when I’m forced to gain knowledge of something potentially personally catastrophic…
I have begun to see that YT is being hostile to adblocker users - and this worries me. I assume YT is already probing the clients to see which are circumveting the ads.
I had an (let’s say unconventional) idea at one point: an add-on which only purpose is to show the YT ads in the background which uBO blocked. All of the blocked ads would be played (eventually) - except that the user can just ignore this happening in background and wouldn’t be actually seeing the ads. I.e. the browser would just move playing the ads into a background container not visible to the user.
Jokes on merge… when a rebase editing goes wrong after +15 commits and six hours, and git hits you with a leadpipe: “do it. Do it again, or reassemble your branch from the reflog.” I.e. you commited a change very early, went over bunch of commits resolving/fixing/improving them and at middle way forget if you should commit --amend
or rebase --continue
to move forward. Choose wrong, and two large change-sets get irreversilbly squashed together (that absolutely shouldn’t), with no way to undo. Cheers. 👍
The default systemd target to boot into can be overriden from the kernel command line.
If the GUI ever gets broken, having a such fallback boot entry just for the (VT) console mode is invaluable. (The boot-entry can reuse the same kernel and initrd images from the regular boot.)
The short version:
This means that you reset your password with a 32-character long generated password, which is saved in your vault, PlayStation saves a 30-long password and then you use the 32-long password to log in, which fails because it isn’t the same.
That password prompt should be scorched to earth.
I tried Luks and BTRFS more than 6 times leading to a script error each and every time.
This was actually my experience also, so I went back to a manual install to just get it done. I think the archinstall
script won’t get any configuration of device-mapper/LVM right (including disk encryption with cryptsetup
). The disk encrypt setup had even more hoops to go through than just LVM.
When I heard the news, my first though was a mix of “Oh. oh no…”, “yay! no vendor-lock-in”, and “OH, NO.”
My expectation for the future is that a crowd fundraiser like on Wikipedia (does anyone remember those?) will be on the way for Mozilla… there is no way they can survive a 80% drop in the budget gracefully.
Reading this legend never gets old. 😂
Why would learning be gatekeeping? I wish I could just teach my secrets… The manuals are only a shallow guide to knowledge. E.g. ls, has condensed for me to ls -laR
mostly, and that ls<tab>
usually gives tools that list something. ch<tab>
gives tools to “change something”, like chmod
. mk<tab>
to “create something” mkdir
etc.
I may navigate in the terminal, but putting me at front of Blender
etc. and I’m back to crawling speed of RTFM, and all I would see is a zoo of buttons.
The time you took to answer the archinstall questions and what would take to do them manually is (nearly) the same. The manual way is that you are forced learn the system (which does take time), and it’s thus more exact of what you want. Once you successfully boot a manual install on a bare hardware, you’ll get all the swag. ;)
(I was lazy last time I had to do a full install, and I prepared the system almost entirely in a VM, for which I used the physical disk I would finally boot it from. The final step was to chroot
’d into the nearly complete system and make it boot outside of the VM…)
I actually don’t get the fuzz/meme about Arch Linux. Yes, the installer drops you into a shell where you need to fix the keyboard layout for starters and the next thing is preparing enough disk resources for the OS which is somehow ungodly hard. My point is that if you can’t then you are not qualified to maintain the installation, or actually RTFM and start to fr think what you do.

The NT kernel in isolation is apparently quite “ok”, from what i have heard of it. It’s the spyware, malware, driver crap (“windows”) running on/using it which is unquestionably totally fucked and disgusting. If they were to FOSS the NT kernel, I could maybe support an such endeavor.
René Rebe, I’ll watch him blast about bad code occasionally.
They are 10y behind, I discovered thinking while 12y old and have been igoring it for 20y. Comes handy in a pinch, leaving all others mindblown.
Expanding your brain by 20% might not go well… that’s extra 20% to worry about.

Yeah, it feels like I blinked and it’s now October already…
(2024 was and still is a heck of an year for me. I have almost climbed out of the ditch on this year. Yay!)
