aberrate_junior_beatnik,

Yeah, if it’s unstable, they’re probably holding it wrong

DSL

What is this? I’m going to be lazy and not search for it because DSL already has multiple meanings which overlap with Linux

aberrate_junior_beatnik,

I’m curious if there’s any quantitative evidence to show this.

aberrate_junior_beatnik,

I’d be surprised to find out there was one filesystem that consistently did better than others in gaming performance. ext4 is a fine choice, though.

aberrate_junior_beatnik,

Yes, famously men have had very few demands of women throughout history.

I’ve been getting ads like these for years on my ubuntu server.

This is on a machine running 20.04. Never bothered me. All my other machines are Debian now, and at some point I’ll switch that one too.

aberrate_junior_beatnik,

Want to exchange information in json? plaintext? binary data? Sockets can do it.

This is exactly why you need something like dbus. If you just have a socket, you know nothing about how the data is structured, what the communication protocol is, etc. dbus defines all this.

Let’s see… the upvote arrow is off, so I turn it on, and just walk away!

aberrate_junior_beatnik,

Contrary to the meme, it’s probably very quiet, if they keep the RPMs low and the fans are arranged correctly

aberrate_junior_beatnik,

I mean even C++11 is a significantly different creature from OG C++. C++23 will have monadic optionals; maybe a future release will have generalized monads.

Dammit

aberrate_junior_beatnik,

Gotta admit, I’m impressed. You’ve actually made me want to defend the anti-systemd crowd. Just take the W, you don’t have to rub it in.

aberrate_junior_beatnik,

That’s not enough proof. You have to ask him if he’d stop an in progress genocide and if he says no, you’re good.

aberrate_junior_beatnik,

Yeah, that should work. ldd “$(command -v “$cmd”)” will list the dynamic dependencies for $cmd, so you can find those (probably) in /lib and /usr/lib; I’m not familiar enough with the dynamic library loading process to give you the specifics. I would put the binaries in /usr/local/bin and the libraries in /usr/local/lib; but you could also modify path variables to point to the usb drive. Ideally you could find statically linked versions somewhere, so you don’t have to mess with the libraries.

Alternatively, most package managers have commands to download packages; then you can copy the package cache over to the new machine and install them that way. If the commands are common enough, you could download one of the bigger install media and add its package repo to your machine. These of course are distribution specific processes.

Finally, you could get a cheap USB ethernet adapter and connect to the internet that way. On newegg most of these products will have at least one review saying whether they work on linux.

I use MakeMKV for ripping dvds and blurays (although honestly unless I really love the source material and want the highest possible quality I just download it).

They seem to have an active forum, that might be a good starting place.
