We should normalize programs that don’t use such exotic and impossible libraries that you have to do anything besides type “make” and “make install” for it to work.

In theory it’s a no brainer. In practice not so much.

No, but the skills you learn by spending 100% of your spare time fixing all the stuff that gets borked after every update prepares you to take better advantage of the easier distros and be more efficient with them.

This makes installing Skyrim mods harder because mods often contain differing versions of folder names. For example one mod might be “Scripts” and the other might be “scripts”. This means you can’t have Skyrim mods on Linux if you’re allergic to copying files manually as this will generally make mod managers not work as well. People on forums like nexus often have a hard time even grasping the concept of not using a mod manager so it’s hard to get help of any kind.

I don’t have time for my system to be getting borked once a week. That’s why I use Debian. My system getting borked once every 2 years isn’t that bad.

A long time ago when I had a good job I bought like every retro video game console known to man. Many years later I sold all that stuff and everything increased in value so I made bank.

Thanks, I always keep forgetting what this ones called. I use a build of gitea from before it became shit but I keep telling myself I need to change to “that better one”.

Gotta love Linux task managers. I have like 3 of them and only htop works. If I didn’t have more pressing things to do, I would sit down and figure out how to make a half decent ui-based task manager.

I just want the name of the running program’s executable, the amount of cpu usage, the amount of ram usage, the ability to sort by either name, ram or cpu use and a way to kill them that works at least half the time.

Part of this is from the nostalgia of never having to update your shit in the days of Windows 9x and Windows XP. Installing stuff never required a system update or an internet connection. Drivers were installed via floppy disk or CD. There were tons of other problems all the time of course but at least we didn’t have to remember to update stuff.

You either have a good job, or you have to choose between not getting medical attention or being chased around your entire life over medical debt. Be prepared to flee the country if the latter.

Some day when x86 is a thing no one has anymore, they’re going to put x86 emulation in wine and then it’ll actually be an emulator.

Too late. I always seem to notice the “danger don’t do that” signs after doing the thing 🤷

Well looks like I finally found a cheat engine equivalent for Linux

Nearly 700gb in logs

wtf 🤯

Guess I’ll have to find a way to get my script to automate that somehow. My goal is to get it back to where the only thing I have to do to download a video is paste the url in a lan webpage on my local server.

That type of hacking is mind-blowingly complicated. Literally. It’s impossible to understand it all without being batshit insane.

They’ll probably attempt an even more blatant coup than last time. If we’re lucky it will be a shitshow and fail so miserably that it de-legitimizes the entire christofascist ideology and destroys the republican party for good.

The biggest problem with reddit mod abuse is they remove every post that isn’t a low effort repost. For example in r/blackmagicfuckery they once removed a 3d renderer someone made in Microsoft excel which was OC made by the person who posted it but allowed the blatantly reposted and uninteresting “scientists think it’s possible to run doom on 10 billion crabs” ass shit post.

Huh, good to know. I’m still going to install Debian next time I reinstall the os. Unless I can’t get it to work with my laptops weird chipset, then I guess it’s Arch.

Hell yeah. I love ass and I love open source software.
