pastermil,

Yeah, that was confusing since all the characters look the same…

pastermil,

I don’t think there’s any business entity artificially forcing the users to use it (like Firefox on Ubuntu 😉) if that’s you’re asking.

Otherwise, the only case where the user is “forced” to use flatpak would be when the software they’re looking for is not available under their distro’s repo, which happens a lot especially in point release distros.

TIFU by rebooting before rebuilding my initfs

I had a super fast but small SSD and didn’t know what to do with it, so I was playing with caching slow spinning LVM drives. It worked pretty good, but I got interrupted and came back a few weeks later to upgrade the OS. I forgot about the caching LVM, updated the packages in preparation for the OS upgrade, then rebooted. The...

pastermil,

A Gentoo LiveUSB and some chroot would save your day!

pastermil,

But don’t you need a wired network connection for this to actually work?

pastermil,

It’s just that most (if not all) build system in the source code package would assume some level of FHS compliance.

For example, they would install:

  • executables under /bin /usr/bin
  • libraries under /lib or /usr/lib
  • sysconfigs under /etc
  • manpages under /usr/share/man
  • and so on…

These build systems would include options to change these, but you’d then have to change all these values to adapt to nix structure. While it’s all been done by the nix package maintainers, you’d have to do all that if you’re to come up with a new package.

In the FHS compliant distros, the maintainers wouldn’t need to change anything since these values are already set to the values they want (there are actually minor details they’d change, but that’s another topic).

pastermil,

STOP FEEDING MY ANXIETY!

pastermil,

Now if only gccrs would mature soon!

LLVM-based is fine for most case, but I bet a lot of people would want to stick with gcc for compiling the kernel.

pastermil,

It seems to still require LLVM, tho

pastermil,

Lemme guess, he’s silent most of the time except when fighting?

pastermil,

It’s not fair to compare it to your decade-old i7

pastermil,

Nier Replicant & Nier Automata soundtracks

All in chaos language (a.k.a. pure gibberish).

pastermil,

Is Cult of the Lamb soundtrack in that list?

I hope someday we'll find a way to pirated a car (lemmy.world)

In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn’t feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in...

pastermil,

We’re talking about now 🙄

pastermil,

The comment you’re replying says to buy older cars so we’re not buying the new cars, hence decreasing the demand.

pastermil,

I think the mid-2010s models should be bullshit-free while having most of the modern features (e.g. fuel efficiency)

pastermil,

The only kind of draft they’d take is the beer kind.

pastermil,

Meanwhile on Tumbleweed: “276 packages to update”

pastermil,

Not sure if rebasing to rolling release distro would be the best decision. Interesting regardless.

pastermil,

I did not know that.

I guess when system recovery is the only use case, you won’t need an update.

pastermil,

my same exact thought lmao

pastermil,

The server is proprietary.

pastermil,

We got !machinist

pastermil,

3.5mm jack?

pastermil,

OpenELA just became more relevant than ever!

pastermil,

They also broke some stuff with some javascript, I think. I’m using KDE’s web browser (Falkon) and it used to work well.
