Technically correct. But it is still a departure burn into another sphere of influence. So you can forgive the quibble. There’s nothing else massive enough in Earth’s orbit to do a free return trajectory around. Or an orbital insertion burn into. And technically lunar orbit is still an earth orbit, but no one would ever use the word that way when in a lunar orbit.

But, yeah, technically ;)

Linux is as buggy as you want it to be. If you’re using Gentoo or Arch in production (and aren’t Valve) and are recompiling kernels cause you read a tomshardware article about a scheduler… Then yeah 😀

Hypothetically: Lemmy instances where every user has to have physically met an admin and proved that they’re real or something. And they’ll only federate to other instances following the same rules.

It’ll almost be like the early 90s dialup BBS small communities, with FIDOnet ;)

The end of the anonymous web is nigh. We may not like it, but it’s probably the only way. We used to joke in the 90s about requiring an internet driver’s license before allowing people on Usenet. It might actually be happening.

Went to a strip club once and the stripper was handing out fake $69 bills with her image on it and a link to her OnlyFans…

Definitely not in ziplock bags hidden in the nearest forest to the school, put there by your older brother…

You might need help. If you’re unwilling to seek help, then at least learn to code and, you know, read the code.

Pro tip: when you find a comment by someone you find interesting or insightful on a topic you wish to see more about - click on their profile and see where else they’re posting. It’s a great way to find additional communities.

Furthermore, lemmyverse.net is amazing for finding communities.

Probably someone’s pet project

Probably mostly AI written.

Long article for one sentence of trivia and no info on the algo itself. The death of the internet is upon us.

Ticketmaster is cancer

Did they even watch it?

The free speech absolutists are going to cause something far far worse than what is portrayed. But maybe that is the goal.

I’m sorry you had a bad experience. I’ve used it as my daily driver with minimal effort post installation on multiple occasions, usually on work laptops where time spent tinkering is time wasted. I’ve found it to be a good choice in that context. I now own my own business, and OpenSuse has allowed me to repurpose older laptops as workstations for my employees with minimal effort.

The only actual pain point I’ve seen is setting up a wifi enabled printer … required that I change my firewall zone so the printer could be discovered. And that only required a few minutes to figure out. The fact that the firewall is set to a more secure default is probably a feature, not a bug.

OpenSuse Leap or even Tumbleweed. After getting the media codecs up and running, and remembering to set you firewall zone to “home”, you’re pretty golden.

You’re applying logic when logic doesn’t apply. Why would he tarriff Canada?

I’ll believe it when I see code written for it solving a real problem

Actually kind of an amazing read. I suspect it shall live another life on 3-axis router tables and such for a while. The mechanic is single stroke lettering remain the same

What’s the weirdest one you’ve tried? Most challenging? Have you found any really cool defining features in any distro?

For example GoboLinux and NixOS eschew the Linux file hierarchy standard (FHS), and that becomes their defining feature. But many other distros have some other defining feature. Slackware uses tarballs as package management and oldschool init. LFS has you build from nothing. Etc.

What algorithm should I use – oh shit, I just deflated
