Synthead, to linux in Dumbest Thing you have done distro-hopping?

Synthead, to linuxmemes in what if you wanted to compile kernel, but make said "Error 2"

Yeha, but you can ask for help without taking a shit on the effort of thousands of engineers.

I doubt OP thought, ‘I’m going to take a shit on thousands of engineers.’ It’s okay to not know what to do, including asking for help. If they don’t know what to do with “error 2,” they’re obviously lost. This unwelcoming attitude to newcomers is a big problem, and in my opinion, it’s probably best not to contribute to it.

You can rephrase what you’re saying and provide better help to someone who’s completely lost in a much more polite and informative way. It’s better for everyone.

Synthead, to asklemmy in why do & ampersands never display properly in titles?

There’s a difference between cautious and incorrect. It’s broken. If they’re that concerned, where are the unit tests?

Synthead, to linux in short question by an aspiring user

There is a GUI, but I prefer the terminal:


<span style="color:#323232;">sudo apt update
</span><span style="color:#323232;">sudo apt install steam
</span>

“Update” fetches the latest package information, and “install steam” does exactly what you think it does :)

You might be able to rebuild your partitions with testdisk, too. Work from a backup.

Synthead, to asklemmy in What is an obscure piece of media or videogame that you think nobody else here has heard of?

I did a little digging and found that Nestle added CDs to their cereals! There were quite a few different titles with different labels. Maybe these links well help you find your games?

There’s a bunch more content here:

Synthead, to asklemmy in Is there an artist whose work you love but was a shitty person?

Billy attempted to sell an Alesis SR-16 that was used in his band for $30k. It’s a $100 drum machine. He was selling it himself. No charity or anything; he just tried to hyper-inflate a very common drum machine that is still produced because he thought he added that value to it by owning it. That was pretty weird.

Synthead, to linux in [Solved] BSOD on Windows VM after update

My least favorite thing about Windows, above all things, is that it’s extremely difficult to discover what’s wrong with it. People just try random things until it works in most cases.

Synthead, to asklemmy in What's the point of buying new phones every years?

Ain’t it a shame that you’re talking about tossing a phone for an $8 battery?

It was trying to is, then it isn’ted. Help?

Synthead, to privacy in How to backup 2FA

All you need is the TOTP secret, and it will generate OTPs. If you enter the secret in another TOTP app, you’ll also get OTPs. Here’s a Ruby lib that will render OTPs from a secret, for example: github.com/mdp/rotp

For an Android TOTP tool, I like FreeOTP+. You can even use it for Steam OTPs.

I’m giving them a little empathy because they are frustrated; that’s all. We’ve all been there.
