Dra, in Never again

A discord server with absurd amounts of over emphasised text, making nothing stand out, filled with emojis and broken up into different messages and sections at the exactly worst places for legibility.

No messages are answered in any channel, and you get amazing sense of all of the technology we have to communicate but zero ability to use it.

It’s a rite of passage! I had to learn it so now you do too! Why, when I was young I used to have to walk to school, uphill both ways, in the snow… :-P

If you cat a log, what would tail report?

Hey! I just saw the end of that!

First, you don’t “cat a log”, you “cut a log”. Second, tail will report that you’re not in the sudoers group.

What kernel parameters should I use?

0x4E4F,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

The parameters that suite your needs.

laurelraven,

All of them, just to be sure

Petter1, in AMA

Why do some specific Nvidia grafic cards require that you use legacy BIOS to start up your linux, while it works flawlessly on macOS using EFI??

0x4E4F,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Because Apple has money and revenue, and Linux doesn’t.

Petter1,

😮 I did not expect such accurate answers, lol

victorz,

Which cards?

stoicmaverick,

It’s easiest if I just link you to the Wikipedia article on money. Here

Thcdenton, in What do you guys do when you want to run unmaintained programs?

I got Mechwarrior 3 working with wine. That shit was fuckin impossible on modern windows.

frezik,

A lot of DirectX titles from that time period won’t run. It’s the biggest reason Wine on Windows makes sense.

poinck, in AMA

What is flatpak?

possiblylinux127,

A packaging format for linux

0x4E4F,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

You sure you don’t know anything about Linux 🤨?

0x4E4F,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

A really flat pancake.

Sheeple,
@Sheeple@lemmy.world avatar

A flapjack is a comic character

stoicmaverick,

It’s a type of Kool-Aid that everybody’s been drinking recently

0x4E4F, (edited )
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

My appoligies, this answer is more correct than mine.

What are the advantages of pacman?

possiblylinux127,

None

SoggyBread,

He eats all the pellets i dropped on the ground and can get rid of ghosts

makunamatata,

Also makes cute sounds and blinks on special occasions

@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Well, you have only 4 controls for him, up, down, left, right, whereas, let’s say Mario, also has fire and jump, so that’s 2 controls more, which makes pacman simpler, thus faster.

thecrotch,

It’s free and open source, unlike Microsoft’s proprietary Ms. Pacman

pewpew, in Title
@pewpew@feddit.it avatar

The case is bloat, a real Arch user wouldn’t need it

lingh0e, in Hot take

It’s like learning how to interact with Lemmy, and then deciding which app you want to use to interact with it.

Lianodel,

I remember doing that for reddit back in the day. I downloaded a bunch of apps, then picked the one I liked best. Good to see devs doing the same for Lemmy!

tkk13909,

I don’t know who would think this was real.

Crack0n7uesday, in It's the beer, I knew it!

UNIX in Bell Labs back in the 70’s might need $40,000 worth of hardware, today you can get an old Raspberry Pie for like $50.

Ilgaz,

That $40K is way more than it seems and it is still cheap. To give an idea about the cutting edge hardware prices back in the day, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_2250?wprov=sfla1

The price you are reading is correct, $2M today. That is what happens when you want 1024×1024 display and pointing device like that NSA spy girl.

I think one should compare it to an entry level AIX/Power system or HP/UX. Apple does still have certified UNIX OS too.

riodoro1, (edited )

That would be an expensive pie. I also don’t know how it’s going to help me with running unix.

The joke: The single board computer is called a Raspberry Pi

Scrollone,

$50??? The Zero model costs like 15 dollars

Crack0n7uesday, (edited )

I haven’t fucked with a Raspberry pie in a long time, lol, I was just making a point. I don’t think they come with any storage so you still have to get like a $20 USB drive.

Evkob,
@Evkob@lemmy.ca avatar

To be fair, Bell Labs’ 40,000$ computer probably didn’t come with any storage either.

Crack0n7uesday,

Those were the punch card days, storage was a lot different back then. Everything was running in the RAM, and rebooting took like a day to get everything running again.

GarlicToast, in Don't think my phone runs Nvidia... or Wayland 🤔

If you don’t see how unaligned the numbers are, you are drunk.

Ziglin,

I think it’s normal for that kind of “test”

rainerloeten,
@rainerloeten@lemmy.world avatar

Do you know why?

Ziglin,

Well it’s slightly harder to spot if it’s in a different position or orientation. (Or at least that is my assumption based on the limited number of “tests” like that one that I’ve seen.

crazyminner, in STOP SCROLLING BROTHER

I’m out of the loop. Is this about phones?

psud,

It’s about everything. Computers, phones, the computer that makes your car work. Every bit of electronics that boots - that probably includes your smoke detector and oven
