You forgot about the ancient Greece

Can you calm down a bit?

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this video. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one video. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW

I always bind compose key to right logo key on Linux. Then I can enter interrobang by pressing right logo, exclamation mark and question mark.

But remember to always use an incognito window and close it afterwards when using someone else’s computer!

Is it about restoring window position and size?

I thought for a minute that Linux now panics when trying to play DRM’d content

I don’t know about its derivatives, but Mandriva had something similar.

The Default Country, I guess

LaTeX and ConTeXt are both macros for TeX. LyX is a graphical editor which outputs LaTeX.

I didn’t see it until I read your comment

Actually, PulseEffects has been renamed into EasyEffects and is PipeWire only now

• Fish. Much, much saner defaults.
• I am writing #!/usr/bin/env sh for dead simple scripts, so they will be a tiny bit more portable and run a tiny bit faster. The lack of arrays causes too much pain in longer scripts. I would love to use Fish, but it lacks a strict mode.
• No, why would I?
• I used to share all my dotfiles, scripts included, but I was too afraid that I would publish some secrets someday, so I stopped doing that. For synchronizing commands, aliases and other stuff between computers I use Chezmoi.
• To use Fish instead of fighting with start up time of Zsh with hundreds of plugins
• Always use the so-called “strict mode” in Bash, that is, the set -euo pipefail line. It will make Bash error on non-zero exit code, undefined variables and non-zero exit codes in commands in pipe. Also, always use shellcheck. It’s extremely easy to make a mistake in Bash. If you want to check the single command exit code manually, just wrap it in set +e and set -e.
• Consider writing your scripts in Python. Like Bash, it also has some warts, but is multiplatform and easy to read. I have a snippet which contains some boilerplate like a main function definition with ArgumentParser instantiated. Then at the end of the script the main function is called wrapped in try … except KeyboardInterrupt: exit(130) which should be a default behavior.
• Absolutely not a bad practice. If you need to use them on a remote server and can’t remember what they stand for, you can always execute type some_command. Oh, and read about abbreviations in Fish. It always expands the abbreviation, so you see what you execute.

Go to a therapy

I don’t have the “Used space” column, probably because I have quota disabled. I managed to find out using btdu, that the snapshot 1137 takes ~8.3 GiB.

I cannot delete it using that command, because it is marked with “+” which means it is the “btrfs default subvolume”, according to snapper manual. I wonder if there is still a way to get rid of it.

No, I think they meant that you get better resource usage when you install an app as a Flatpak instead of a system package. You get the same benefit in a traditional distro too, if you use Flatpaks, it’s just that immutable distros kind of force you to use them.

Don’t use the NVIDIA installer, as it conflicts with the package manager. Use the nvidia-kernel-dkms package from the official Debian repository

Ventoy is a godsend in that case. If you have a big enough USB stick, you can just put all distros you wanna try on it

I switched to Tidal after Spotify suddenly killed the API libspotify was using.

It takes a while for Tidal to “learn” what kind of music I like. I think Spotify got it sooner. Now the recommendations are pretty good.

I hate that they copied the weird queue management from Spotify. What can’t I just tell the player to play another album after the one that is currently playing finishes? It surprises me it is not a more common compliant.

Good bot
