Let’s get him! Too bad we won’t.

There is no spoon.

Anyway, what does this have to do with technology?

Samsung is one of the largest tech companies in the world. I don’t think that’s debatable.

My tip for anyone struggling with getting started with linux, set up a log function so you can easily log any relevant changes you make, and have it accessible from somewhere else (like a shared partition or external drive for example). This way you know what you have done and can use that to fix whatever you fuck up. Also, make a knowledge base with the sources you find useful. I have a small kb in UpNote now so I can look up how some things were done instead of having to search and find the right guides over and over.

This is the best advice for anyone who wants to learn how to utilize the command line. I used to write tremendous documentation for myself, as though I was writing a blog post. Now, I just throw a one line description of the change and hope I remember enough about it for it to make sense. But writing the longer info was really important for me internalizing things in the very beginning.

Glad you’re having fun!

Edit: Oh, and I suggest you look for guides on setting up rsync to work like Time Machine.

The Rust war is a travesty for OSS.

On Tuesday, he was due to appear in court on multiple corruption charges, which as the case progresses, are tightening a noose around his political neck. The renewed war gave him an excuse to tell the court he could not attend.

Selfish asshole.

I love how there’s that one weirdo downvoting all these replies against the multitude of people who find this distasteful. You know who you are, you twisted little wretch.

Sam Altman is a lying hype-man. He deserves to see his company fail.

Well, they were the peoples’ cars. Guess the peoples’ tanks is just as good.

Best answer. We can sell it!

I love projects like this. It’s way harder to do in Bash, but that’s what makes it interesting. The unnecessary effort to do it right shows real skill.

Very interesting. Cheers!

I keep space heaters in every room (except kitchen and bathrooms). Why heat the whole place when I’m just one person in one spot? (She bundles under blankets because the space heaters dry her skin, but similar end result.)

Fuck yeah!

Psychopath.

I will check this out!

The system seems quite a bit quicker than it was in Windows - though in all honesty this will also be because I’m still on a fairly fresh install.

I don’t think your Linux install is likely to slow down the way Win does.

The little icon jumping next to your cursor when opening a program (I know, I’m easily amused).

I consider Win unique as an OS that doesn’t provide feedback when something is happening in the background. It’s infuriating.

The lingering feeling of instability.

You’ve spent decades on the other system and when you started, you were too young to feel anxiety about it. You’ll get used to it.

The capslock works differently, apparently. I’m used to writing every capital letter using the capslock key, meaning if I write a capital at the beginning of a word, I press capslock, then type the first letter, then quickly press capslock again and type the rest.

I don’t understand why you don’t use the Shift key. I’m not trying to be an ass; why not use Shift?

I say all of this as a Mac guy who uses Linux for servers and such. I don’t daily-drive Linux as a desktop platform. But I greatly respect Linux and pay to support the Asahi Linux project (they are building Linux for Apple Silicon). I wish you all the best finding your way in a Windows-free world.

I’m so goddamn disgusted.

I’m here to promote fclones. I’ve used it twice and recovered over a terabyte on my NAS the last time I used it. I’m not affiliated. Hyperspace for Mac is similar (but different) and I haven’t used it, but it was developed by my favorite nerd podcast host. I’m planning to test it out eventually, but the latest fclones run was only about a month ago, so it doesn’t make sense to try it yet.

I wonder what the numbers are after that awful meeting. We are a terrible people.
