jollyrogue,

Dale is us. We are all Dale, and Dale is all of us.

I’m trying out OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on a few personal servers as I wait for Slowroll, I want to get back to trying to get Gentoo running, and I should check out Guix as a server in a VM.

Gentoo having a binary option should help since I seem to mess up the kernel part of the installation.

jollyrogue,

Lemmy needs a “Vote for best of” feature.

jollyrogue,

Package manager needs to be higher since Linux distros are software distribution projects mainly.

  1. Package manager
  2. Config tools
  3. Config defaults
  4. Kernel
  5. Init process
  6. Software
jollyrogue,

What are we ranking? The boot order of computers?

Of the 3 you listed, the init is only important to a few distros.

Also you forgot this is Linux and the initramfs.

Wanting to improve my Linux skills after 17 months of daily driving Linux

I’ve been daily driving Linux for 17 months now (currently on Linux Mint). I have got very comfortable with basic commands and many just works distros (such as Linux Mint, or Pop!_OS) with apt as the package manager. I’ve tried Debian as a distro to try to challenge myself, but have always ran into issues. On my PC, I could...

jollyrogue,

As an alternative idea…

A using a spare desktop as a headless VM server would be a good way to practice your CLI skills. Don’t install a GUI, or web admin tool, and only use SSH to admin it.

From there, setup a couple of VMs for Arch or Gentoo testing. Eventually, a Linux From Scratch attempt would provide a lot of learning opportunities.

jollyrogue,

The third rule of fight club is don’t yuck others yum.

jollyrogue,

It’s possible to let them know the email is active, and they should follow up.

I might have felt the punchline of this comic more than any other, and I've been reading Dinosaur Comics for MANY years now (lemmy.world)

Alt text (which is actually, and always has been, the title text but we all just call it the alt text: “wipe questions about old star trek episodes from MY mind and there simply wouldn’t be anything left, and i would be as blank as Uhura was when her memory was wiped by Nomad, the space probe created by the collision of an...

jollyrogue,

This makes sense if you subscribe to the thought that everyone dies in the transporter, but they recreate the person like the food on board and upload their consciousness into the newly created meat sack.

They could upload a backup into Uhura, and she would be good as new.

Wait, why did it take a week? Why do they have backups?!? 😳

jollyrogue,

Oh god, the food is conscious and feels pain. 😳🤮

  • jollyrogue,

    The article itself isn’t very clear. It took me a while to figure out the scheduler algorithms were affected rather than the kernel as a whole.

    jollyrogue,

    The task scheduler in the Linux kernel was using a max value of 8 in its calculations rather than the actual number of cores in the machine.

    The machine could have 128 cores, but the scheduler would base its calculations on 8 cores. As a result, the processes on the machine would run for less time than they should.

    jollyrogue,

    Fedora releases newer software versions regularly, and this can be a problem for third party software.

    jollyrogue,

    Yes. In place upgrades are pretty easy at this point though.

    jollyrogue,

    How is the firmware support? Beelink isn’t mentioned on LVFS.

    jollyrogue,

    I haven’t seen this behavior. As far as I know, the system will run without swap until a swap partition or swap file is created and activated.

    What should be used for anonymous usernames?

    More often than not, the best way to hide is to simply blend in with the crowds – this also encompasses one’s choice for a username. It is relatively simple to make a single throwaway account – just come up with a username, and off you go – however, if one makes throwaway accounts often, the task of thinking of a unique,...

    jollyrogue,

    It does.

    jollyrogue,

    It’s fairly recent, and I don’t think they advertise it. It appeared one day in the generator. 😆

    I don’t think it’s particularly good, but it’s something!

    New Fedora Slimbook 14" joins the Fedora Slimbook 16" - Fedora Magazine (fedoramagazine.org)

    We heard your feedback during the launch of the Fedora Slimbook 16 and, along with the folks from Slimbook, bring you the new Fedora Slimbook 14, a smaller, lighter, cheaper with even better battery life, version of the Fedora Slimbook, powered by an Intel CPU and GPU (unfortunetely no AMD version soon).

    jollyrogue,

    It’s so sad he doesn’t get into arts school. 🙁

    jollyrogue,

    It’s pretty accurate as far as looking like Emma.
