  • Sadly this. I yelled at MIL when Roe was overturned and a 10 year old made headline news. Her response was "BUT THE MEXICANS!". They literally don't give a flying fuck about anyone but themselves and blaming absolutely EVERYONE else.

  • Please NEVER stop asking questions. As other have said, there really are no stupid questions.

    If someone else acts like it's a stupid question, then it's their issue and not yours. NOTHING is easy until you understand it. The only way to understand it is to ask questions.

    I've told numerous folks at work that before they do something if they have a question then let me know, because I'd rather answer a question then spend an hour or more fixing something broken.

    I ask a LOT of questions. So many questions that when I first started in IT I had a lead that got used to me being in the office 2 hours before him so he knew I'd have a million questions and before he'd even go to his desk he'd stop by mine and ask if I had questions, which I always did.

    Please please please please please ASK QUESTIONS.

    I have been in IT for 12 years now, I have been on Linux for 16. Before this post I literally was in another thread and asked about BTRFS. I looked it up and it wasn't making sense to me, so I asked a question. You can NEVER know EVERYTHING. And when you start to get comfortable that's when something new comes out or you start digging deeper and have more.

  • Also anyone know if JustALinuxGuy is on Fediverse/Mastodon or a way to reach them about uploading these incredibly instructive videos to Peertube such as TILVids?

  • Question about the video. I've never used btrfs or Timeshift, so maybe this is just a thing with them, when he jumps to the CLI and unmounts, remounts RW, changes the @rootfs @, adds a dir and then mounts the subvolume on /dev/sda2 to /target.

    This is totally new to me and I was wondering if anyone had an explanation as to why this was necessary?

    I'm used to EXT4 and that's what I run. But if BTRFS has FINALLY gotten stable and usable and I can take snapshots and roll back to older ones, kind of like branches in ostree, then maybe it's worth this little extra work.

    From what I find subvols are their own isolated branch with their own hierarchy. Is this how they're meant to be used? Manually creating them and mounting/unmounting?

  • Good news! Save it for 20 years and read it again! 😁

  • Where can one find that episode? ... FOR A FRIEND OF COURSE!

  • Mother-in-law works at one. Under educated, under paid, not enough help, everyone is forced to go there and sees it as a watse of their time so the "guv'ment" can "steal" your hard earned money. At least in thd US.

  • Pandora has amazing stations that randomize like music. I've found lots of new artists this way and love it.

  • I misinterpreted that part or missed it. With you now. Thank you!

  • We don't know they didn't design and implement it. Happens all the time where you imolement a feature, it works, there's a regression and you have no clue. 40 min to resolve means it's there, no way you're building that completely, testing it, oushing it in that tineframd.

    I coukd be wrong.

  • They also gave me crippling anxiety. Sure showed me!

  • I was worried there for a second. The oak trees I've seen are green ans brown.

  • Actually just bought a bunch of different impossible meats. The chicken nuggets are GREAT. Absolutely buying more of those, I don't care if they're a buck more for a bit less. They're so good.

    The steak tips, wife couldn't eat them. She doesn't like fatty meat and they REALLY had the consistency of fatty steak tips. I'd eat them, but meh.

    Had an impossible burger the other day at a restaurant and it was REALLY good as well. I had one waaaaaaaaaaay back when they started at one of the fast food places and it was just like chalky. This was REALLY good. Probably going to have that when I want a burger and they have that as an option.

    I am NOT a vegan or vegetarian or any of that. I just think if I can do this little thing to get away from meat, maybe it'll help. The fact it tastes quite good is a win.

  • NO! No bugs! Be perfect!

    Seriously though, I've seen way dumber shit in "production" ready code.

    I won't use Bluesky, but this happens all the time. I also don't see the issue.

    I've told folks before, once and last time in front of developers (they didn't find it funny) , that all code is shit. Not because they're bad at it, but because it's impossible to account for EVERY possible factor. They always make a better idiot. US: "Here's this square." Them: "I cut the corners off to fit it into the round hole and it no works!"

  • XMPP or Matrix. I'm on Matrix only because I have my family there and I was there before I knew of XMPP and at this point I can't turn that boat.

    Signal was/is (idk if they still are) into crypto, they don't let you run your own server or client, and they have a proprietary shim in place to combat spam (or so they say, it can't be audited because it's proprietary).

    I was all in on Signal until the above.

  • "In essence, the accuracy is entirely dependent on the difficulty of the test."

    AKA doesn't work for shit. Don't bother with it. And even if it did work, it'll be an arms race and right now the deepfakes have the nuke and Intel has a musket.

  • Can't argue with that logic.

  • I just created a helper for this new build system, I plan on getting angel investors for my startup.

    I've also created my own license so anyone that views it is now working for me. The wrapper:

    #!/bin/bash

    g++ *

  • I actually had an argument while in college with my Comp Sci advisor. I argued I shouldn't have to take a foreign language, that I couldn't pass, because I was learning so many programming languages. They didn't buy it. I didn't complete the program. :-D lol
