U de Recife

I love copyq so much. It’s definitely one of the apps I first install in a new deployment. When I hear of the troubles some people go through for not having a clipboard manager, I just smh and think, ‘copyq’.

Paris, Texas. Yeah, from the movie.

I had many issues since the upgrade. After getting tired of hunting them down individually, my one-time solution was to nuke my old configs and simply start anew. Fresh home, .config, .local.

I use both htop and btop—depending on the mood. htop is less prettier, but more reliable. But sometimes I want pretty and I go with btop. top is where I draw the line. It’s too nerdy for me.

I would say you’re actually witnessing the very real phenomenon of language-drift. Languages evolve for a billion reasons, but there’s no right or wrong state of language.

That’s why we distinguish between language, dialect, idiolect, sociolect. Each bearer of language is also a producer of language. Their version is just theirs, in whatever many ways that makes that version unique.

(Check linguistics to better understand this process of language-drifting )

You’re not wrong. Why would you? Either works or not. You said it yourself, it’s work-related. The rest you could probably work around them if sufficiently motivated.

Not OP, but here’s how. You live-distro yourself to a running command prompt. You then connect to the internet, mount the partitions, finally chrooting to your computer’s storage install. Once there, you clear pacman’s lock from var and run a full update: pacman -Syyu. Wait until it finishes, exit chroot, reboot. 9 out 10 times works as expected.

Early 2002. I read about Linux somewhere, and I was trying a Mandrake install. I also read about control+alt+Backpage, which eagerly proceed to try.

Now I’m on tty, cursor blinking, thinking: I broke Linux.

Scared, I cleverly undid that mistake by simply… reinstalling the distro. Ignorance is NOT bliss.

I always read out loud. Always. And I do most of my readings while walking. So I imagine hearing me waking around taking to myself make other people think ‘wtf?’.

Great. Now they can finally make Mars the setting for an anime. Add a sea of two, and you have a whole anime season.

Vegan when eating, Arch Linuxing when computing, communist when sharing, capitalist when investing, …

The list knows no end. Why not just say what’s appropriate for each particular circumstance?

For arch Linux, there’s Topgrade. All there, in just one command. All. There. Official repos, AUR, even firmware upgrades.

Here’s my alias to update the whole system. It includes fetching the fastest mirrors, topgrade, and cleaning the update’s packages cache. Tailor it to your own needs.

alias update='sudo fetchmirrors -q -s 5 -v -c PT && yes | topgrade -c -y --no-retry --disable gem --disable vim --disable emacs --disable gem --disable sdkman --disable rustup --disable cargo --disable remotes && sudo paccache -rk 0'

Having opinions about other peoples gender, sexual orientation, private matters. Also legislating about that.

Thumb and ring finger change places. Opposable ring fingers.

Read as Law Enforcement Officer. And I was, huh? Then it hit me. Ah, the zodiac…

jumpapp. A run-or-raise application switcher for any X11 desktop.

It’s THAT good.

I’m really enjoying Lemmy so far. I’ve posted more here in one and a half months than in 16+ years on reddit astroturfbay. Why?

Because here feels like friendly neighbourhood square where people actually care to listen to each other. Whatever happens here feels way more organic and people-oriented than elsewhere. No algos dictating agendas just because more engagement=more profit.

So yeah, I really like this place.

I’m confused about your comment. Why assume it’s childish to act in a way that distances you of any drama?

Why that us vs. them attitude of name calling someone as childish? How is that any different of the childish behaviour that is being hoisted upon in the first place?

Perhaps that’s an indication that a side is already being chosen?

Anyway, don’t take my comment in a wrong way. I really have no dog in this fight. I barely know who this Linus guy is. I just dislike seeing people being rude to each other, unneedingly escalating discussions by being unkind.

Instructions are in post above. Instructions say not to use list of words. Do as instructions. Write without words listed.

I came here to post something similar, but yours is probably a better suggestion. I’m now fond of beet flavoured water kefir.
