i assumed you were making a comment on the modern (fascist) administration. there’s a difference between shitty politics and fascism. :P

the quote in question is over a decade old…

i’d assume this might be a drive issue rather than a distro / linux issue. iirc i installed debian from CD a few months back on a thinkpad because i was bored… hah, parties. you’re funny. undervolting thinkpads while procrastinating finals. that’s my kind of shit.

i really would like to run my own peertube instance, but until i get a symmetric connection, i just don’t have the uplink. :(

i hate to be a pedant (who am i kidding, i love to be) but they didn’t really invent electricity, so much as discover it and improve on existing technologies. ben franklin was writing about lightning rods a century before. also autoerotic asphyxiation. that’s true, look it up.

you’re evil. i love it.

on my campus, there’s a stack of several dozen desktops just out in the open (in a basement)

plus a dumpster worth on monitors, peripherals, and at least one ipad with multiple bullet holes. the screen is fine – somebody pulled the screen off, then shot the logic board. i have so many questions

i love backwards compatibility as much as the next guy, but at some point, if there isn’t enough of a community to backport fixes, there probably aren’t many using them. if a tree falls in the forest, you get the idea.

i mean, most of them are celled “display managers” – lightDM, gDM, lxDM

rust compiles to native code, so barring some horrific implementation issues, i’d bet my money on it being roughly equivalent.

in my experience, practice, practice, and more practice. but “just git gud m8” isn’t really helpful advice. if you don’t have half a decade on hand, i can make a few more practical recommendations.

a shell that can do argument autocomplete is your best friend. personally, i use zsh + ohmyzsh + fzf + fzf-tab, but i’m sure there are other configs, and i’ve heard ohmyzsh is a bit of a nightmare, though i haven’t had too many issues.

so let’s say you’re running the one rsync command this month, and you forgot the args, just tab-tab and you can search through the arguments with fzf.

weird – they work for me. ctrl+c sends SIGINT, and ctrl+v iirc isn’t treated specially. i figured sending SIGINT with kill would then preform a copy, but it doesn’t. fuck. now i have another puzzle…

is this the part where i get to smugly use i3? :P
