I'm inclined to somewhat agree. As someone who enjoyed snooping around a mostly unencrypted and insecure internet 25 years ago, I can wholeheartedly tell you that most people's files are pretty boring.

Corporate computers on the other hand...

Not sure if you're referring to alcoholism or assassinations, but I guess you're right either way.

I was peer pressured by some friends into Project Zomboid a few weeks ago. We're having great fun, especially now that I've figured out the game properly.

And speaking of peer pressure, my character is a smoker.

Could it be more of a "new to the internet"-thing, maybe?

Not sure if it's the case anymore, but strong opinions were matched with EQUALLY STRONG STYLISTIC CHOICE!!!!!!!, often coupled with poor grammar/spelling, and a tendency to lean more towards rehashing the same opinion rather than making a rational argument for it.

Citation needed. Also, three people seem firm in their belief that nuclear weapons are perfectly safe for cats.

Everyone knows that smoothbore is more modern than rifled.

Not as far as I can see. Maybe there's a plugin out there that changes the default for you?

Chronically bad breath?

What I mean is that I think each backup is (probably) independent of each other.

A diff is shorthand for difference, as well as an old tool that hilights the differences between files. It was commonly used in patching once upon a time. I'm not sure if rsync implements diff directly, but what can be said for sure is that rsync at least implements s8milar behavior.

 

Summarized back story of this legendary beauty: When NZ was drawn into WW2, some heroes began thinking of armored defense. Bob Semple decided to make one, making this the best (and only) Kiwi tank ever built.

The second part of the title is my own interpretation. I fly myself from time to time (Only recreationally, I have no plans on going commercial. I like my current unrelated career), and have been made aware of the medical requirements for pilots. While strict rules should apply, the regulations are outdated. I find it naive to think that there aren't any pilots currently flying with, for example, ADHD, and while that would in most cases in itself be a disqualifying diagnosis for pilots, it's even more disqualifying if it's medicated.

The video is about a compelling story and focuses mostly on mental health, but I feel that it hilights the same underlying problem; Pilots are incentivized to keep quiet about mental health issue due to an outdated approach because of a ruleset that basically states "No medication, no diagnosis".

 

And I know we're mostly atheists here, but please keep the theological discussion to a minimum and appreciate the lighthearted hypothetical scenario for what it is.

This is your annual reminder to do a snapshot (timeshift or whatever you prefer) before doing relatively minor changes to your system.

I was supposed to be in bed now, but instead I am stuck troubleshooting xorg refusing to start after an apt-get dist-upgrade.

And as far as friendly reminders go, I should've given myself an unfriendly reminder beforehand, as it's not the first time....

UPDATE: Fuck nvidia 545. All my homies hate nvidia 545. 535 4 lyf!

Thanks to @redcalcium@lemmy.institute for providing a better link. This post originally linked to tomshardware.

 

xrandr allows you to rotate the screen resolution, thus supporting diagonal setups. Some guy claims this is ideal for his software dev setup, with the IDE taking up most of the space, while smaller windows reside in the open corner.
