caseyweederman,

It was… Tenant, in the Fright Night remake, right? My subconscious doesn’t believe me that they’re not really interchangeable.

caseyweederman,

Forget selling it.
I think they’re going to get everyone trapped in the ecosystem, and then they’ll start charging for access to the source.

How to download ALL dependencies for an external .deb package (rescuezilla)?

Hi everyone! I’m trying to prepare a live iso with a USB stick including the additional rescuezilla package (or, alternatively, additional packages for a live rescuezilla .iso). Sadly rescuezilla does not support encryption, and so I’d like to be able to create/encrypt an image on one single live iso, not having to do a...

caseyweederman,

If the dependencies are in the repos you’ve added since, then apt-rdepends should be able to pull them.

caseyweederman,

Politeness and dignity are just as much for yourself as for the recipient.

caseyweederman,

I didn’t read the “these packages will be removed” list.

Oh, another time, I ran sudo rm -fr /usr/bin to test out Timeshift. I had more tests planned, but it turns out all the commands involved lived in /usr/bin (obviously).

caseyweederman,

I haven’t had to touch xorg.conf in many years

caseyweederman,
