caseyweederman,

You know… That’s fair.

caseyweederman,

I’m baffled when companies that self-host DNS don’t have DNS-level adblocking.

caseyweederman,

I can’t not parse the one on the right as a Muppet rat

caseyweederman,

I love Buttercup Festival so much. You could frame any strip, any panel and put it on your wall.
I feel like the artist really captured Bill Watterson’s nature aesthetic.
What was the other one, the spooky monochrome ink comic, felt a bit like Spooky Stories you Tell in the Dark but less horrifying but still pretty horrifying? Like maybe midway between Spooky Stories and Edward Gorey. Deadmouse? Ballad! Ballad… I’m gonna go be nostalgic about that.

caseyweederman,

I can’t even go back over my own code, wrapping my head around someone else’s is a massive project in and of itself.

caseyweederman,

I’m a fan of the old IBM ThinkPads. Not sure about the recent ones.
I’ve had huge problems with one of Lenovo’s Legion laptops. Awful support too, they did everything they could to not have to fix it. It took a licensed third party to finally take us seriously and fix the dang thing.

So I wouldn’t recommend Lenovo unless the only alternative was Dell.

!Dog: Yes, I wish that my owner’s life would be as short as mine is!<

caseyweederman,

Do what I do. “Oh shoot, Jellyfin stopped, now I have to remember how to tell Arch to clear out its cached packages” (it’s pacman -sc if you’re me and you’re reading this in the future)

Can I pre-install Ubuntu on an SSD?

Ths might be a silly question, but asking those is how i learn sometimes. I’m trying to install my first Linux distro to set up a Plex server and one of the few things I know is you need a wired internet connection. My intended server location is across the house from my router, and there isnt much room there to set up...

caseyweederman,

Same as Debian since Bookworm (12). Nonfree firmware comes in the installation files now, so you can opt in or out at that stage and not have to scramble if you forgot.

caseyweederman,

Only when KC Green isn’t wearing gloves, otherwise it’s just sparkling Lorax

caseyweederman,

Canonical has a long history of thinking it knows better than you, but funneling everyone into their closed-source walled-garden our-way-or-the-highway gonna-charge-money-the-moment-we-figure-out-the-legality Snap Store sure if the most Microsofty.

caseyweederman,

dd if=/dev/urandom | aplay

caseyweederman,

Intel and AMD drivers are part of the Linux kernel so you never need to think about drivers.
Check out https://www.protondb.com/ for something of a list of supported games, but generally most games just work (in Steam, go to Settings, Compatibility, and check the box for applying Proton on all games in library and not just the officially supported ones).
ProtonDB isn’t a complete list, but if you do struggle with getting a game to work, chances are somebody has posted a string you can paste into Steam to make the game magically work.

caseyweederman,

Nearly all Ubuntu instructions also apply to Debian.
Flatpak is no longer default on Ubuntu since they see it as competition.
As of Debian Bookworm, nonfree firmware is available on the installation media and no further steps are involved.

Ubuntu used to be the most friendly beginner experience. I’m not sure if it has any advantage over Debian today.

And Sync

caseyweederman,

I’m really impressed that, given the chance to cash in on weird internet meme fame, he turned around and put out a bunch of genuinely good music.

caseyweederman,

I think it looks more like a puma.

caseyweederman,

I mean he does take every opportunity to let you know that he’s French.

caseyweederman,

Somebody please fork reprepro, there’s a super useful bugfix in one and a super useful feature in the other but I want both.

The bugfix is the zstd decompression-cancel race condition bug and the feature is multiple versions per package but they’re both super stale.
Maybe…
Maybe I can fork it…

caseyweederman,

Chicken Tools

caseyweederman,

I read it as them glaring at the farmer for causing this tragedy, suggesting that they don’t know that the eggs were just going to be eaten otherwise.

caseyweederman,

sudo rm -fr /* is short for sudo rm --for-real /*

caseyweederman,

I expected better from the comments of a community called “Uplifting”

caseyweederman,

Wait. Is xfconf-query just a front-end for one branch of dbus?
