BBSes are back!

As a self-hoster, I love docker. It’s been an amazing deployment tool.

WHY THE FUCK DIDN’T YOU ADD .ENV TO .GITIGNORE YOU FUCKING DONKEY!?!?!

Let’s hope it sticks when Microsoft backs up the money truck.

Hahaha. Came to say exactly this. Verbatim.

Am American and I hate the MM/DD/YY(YY) format. Unfortunately its what’s been taught and used as the standard date format for a long time.

I much prefer the ISO standard of YYYY-MM-DD. It’s the superior format logically moving from the largest calendar unit to the smallest. Also superior for date ordering files.

I did as well, small comfort.

And it’ll be subscription based.

I expect an affinity subscription plan.

I really hope it sticks. Then something decent will have come out of this shit (US) government.

Isn’t this like the third time they’ve done this and it lasts until Microsoft backs a dump truck of money up to the government?

Don’t get me wrong though. I hope it sticks! Fuck Microsoft.

Edit: spelling

I’ll do this and they STILL only answer the first question

You can do this with the dd command. To prep:

Set up a live boot USB stick with your distro of choice.

Install another SSD/nvme/HDD at least the same size as your bookworm install into your bookworm machine. If that’s not an option connect a USB drive that’s at least the same size as the drive with your bookworm installation.

Boot into the live USB on the bookworm machine.

Make sure the partition(s) from your bookworm install are unmounted.

Quadruple check the drives/devices for the dd command. Here’s the basics of the command:

dd if=/device/where/bookworm/is/installed of=USB/or/second/drive/in/machine bs=8M status=progress

So, if your bookworm install is on /dev/sda, and the USB or secondary is /dev/sdb, then the Cmand would be:

dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=8M status=progress

Heh. I haven’t started exploring other shells yet.

Perfect. I’m feeling comfortable enough with bash that next on my list is AWK. Gonna download this when I get home!

Used thinkpad is an easy choice. If you want new, I’ve been very happy with the framework 13

If it has to be a de, I’d pick gnome. Otherwise it’s hyprland.

Most of the “militias” support this tyranny. They’re celebrating

Vibe coding is a hilarious term for this too. As if it’s not just letting AI write your code.

Hahaha. Was about to comment nearly the same thing. My NFS share has a different mount. ~/Documents is an empty directory
