Maybe we can lure some of them over here, though, by using one of these: #blind

Could be that the companies they supplied to filed for damages, due to them not meeting supply targets…
“Oven is going to be a grind, especially the first nine months or so. If work-life balance means a lot of time spent not working, it’s probably not a good fit.”
Oh man, someone here recently shared a blog post on startup culture in software companies, which likened software to an oven, where you’d add a specific button for a customer and that fucks up your whole architecture for years to come etc…
For just a moment, I thought this was a direct quote from that blog post.


OP should’ve posted to !shittyasklemmy@lemmy.ml, if they want meme answers. If they want a factual answer, then “ghosts don’t exist” is that.


Well, in hopes that you’re not just trolling, maybe you’ll believe a dictionary that “stable” is ambiguous in this context. Because this is one of the listed meanings:
(computing) Of software: established to be relatively free of bugs, as opposed to a beta version.
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/stable#Adjective
It also lists your meaning. I’m not saying that you’re wrong. I’m saying it’s ambiguous, i.e. there’s two meanings that could apply here.
Well, and personally, I do feel like more people will interpret “stable” to mean bug-free here, because Debian is a piece of software to them.


Yeah, but that’s exactly the meme that I’m talking about.
It’s always ambiguous what is meant by stability. And as soon as you complain about Debian actually breaking very easily, folks will readily tell you about the technicality that it just means it doesn’t change very often.


Having btrfs+snapper set up by default sounds good. I wish Debian-based distros in general would finally make a move there. It’s a bit of a meme that folks laud Debian for its stability, but you can easily break it with one wrong command.
And who knows, maybe TuxedoOS adopting it can serve as a proof of concept and get Debian itself to adopt btrfs sooner.


More of a general tip: https://reuse.software/ can help to get this stuff right.
Pretty sure, it won’t be able to help with your use-case of copy-pasting code snippets, though (it’s not at all trivial to know which parts you copy-pasted), but it gives you a structure to work with and can automatically annotate new source files.


I mean, my first 30 seconds of experiencing Windows 11 was watching a coworker wait for the file manager to open + render its toolbar, so I don’t think I could’ve really come to a different conclusion…
It did often feel like Nintendo specifically went for weird and quirky hardware to hinder emulation. The Wii had motion controls, the Wii U existed, and well, with the Switch, I’m sure their first-party titles still make use of things you can specifically do with the JoyCons…
A few years ago, we had school kids in the company for a week-long internship.
And on one of those days, I was doing hardware tests for a software we wrote, and a colleague, who was taking care of one of the kids, he saw me and spontaneously asked, if I could explain to the kid what I’m doing.
And the thing is, the colleague didn’t know me or my project, so he loved my infodump. He asked tons of clarifying questions, including questions that went way over the kid’s head.
Meanwhile, the kid did not say a single word during my infodump. You could tell his mental capacity was reached long before we talked and then came my 20-minute-long deluge of information. I do hope that the kid took away at least an impression, but it just did not seem like my words even entered his ears.
And yep, pretty much that look on his face. Like a deer staring into the headlights before it’s hit by a truckload of information.
Looks like a typo: !datahoarder@selfhosted.forum
df only shows partitions, whereas du adds up the file sizes in the directory you specify.
So, in particular, if you want to find out what’s taking up so much space, you can repeatedly run du -sh * and cd into the largest directory.


This is pretty much the only song in my collection which has vocals and which’s vocals don’t happen to be in English (don’t ask me why; my mother tongue is German), but anyways, it’s this ballad in some slavic language: https://open.audio/library/tracks/102128/
I have no idea what the song is about, so if they sing of pee and poop, I do apologize.
It’s mostly bitter with a slight hotness and a herbal touch. “Dry” is also a really good adjective for it IMHO.
Source: I just ate half a teaspoon of turmeric. 10/10 would not recommend.
I guess, I should also add that you really don’t need a lot of turmeric to color things yellow, so the flavor isn’t that big of a deal here.
Posteo is mostly just a deployment of RoundCube.
Mind you, I do assume they have deployment scripts and code for handling payments and such, which aren’t open-source.
I also have to say, though, a hosted service using open-source is *nice*, because they will hopeful contribute back to that, but it’s not much beyond that.
You cannot know, whether they actually run the software that they publish in their repository, so auditing the open-source code hardly tells you anything about the trustworthiness of the actual service.
fires may produce plasma if hot enough.

Depends how violently you fart, I guess.
My workplace put out an internal notice of how to deal with the heat. One of the points is “Adjust Dresscode”.
Yep, that’s certainly one way of putting it.
Yeah, we’re also still on 24.04. And from what I’ve seen, 26.04 will ship with Plasma 6.6, not 6.7.
Maybe the kubuntu-backports repository can give it earlier than that, but yeah, I don’t even know yet, when we’ll upgrade to 26.04.
Good point, though, about the .01 release. Maybe I’ll start bothering IT when that’s out.
Yeah, computationally intensive stuff is going to be slow when implemented in Python. You will find lots of data science libraries for Python that do computationally intensive stuff, but they’re then generally implemented in C/C++ or Rust, with only a thin API layer written in Python.
