I don’t get the problem with flathead, for household applications it seems the most superior because I can use literally anything in my house to drive the screw (butter knife, credit card, a housekey)

plus almost every size of flathead screwdriver can fit in almost every size of flathead screw.

Frighteningly accurate

In Japan if you work full time for a larger employer, you pay into “shakai hoken” (societal insurance) this pays you like a third of your salary if you get injured and have to refrain from work for awhile. (This is at least partially paid for by your company because you can only legally be fired in Japan if the company proves beyond a reasonable doubt you were either belligerent or the company couldn’t survive without you)

They don’t pay out unless you call crime stoppers. If they called 911 they don’t pay out.

Guix user pains. The packages download at that speed.

It’s a tossup whether downloading Librewolf or building it will take longer

The way Coffee Stain explained it for satisfactory is that the exclusivity windfall gave them enough runway to finish the game.

If the system of temporary exclusivity in exchange for upfront development cash continues I think it’s an overall win for the gaming community as games get to come out at less rushed pace and with potentially less cash generation grabs in the game itself.

That’s ironic considering the magic word is basically shouting “balls”

I run btrfs on every hard drive that my Linux boxes use and there’s the occasional hiccup but I’ve never run into anything “unrecoverable.”

I will say that compared to extfs, where the files will just eat shit if there’s a write corruption, because btrfs tries to baby the data I think there appear to be more “filesystem” issues.

Typically when there are “can’t mount” issues with btrfs it’s cause the write log got corrupted, and memory errors are usually the cause.

BTRFS needs a clean write log to guarantee the state of the blocks to put the filesystem overlay on top of, so if it’s corrupted btrfs usually chooses to not mount until you do some manual remediations.

If the data verification stuff seems more of a pain in the ass than it’s worth you can turn most of those features off with mount options.

I’ve had btrfs go into an error state because of a bad write before, but it was pretty easy to recover from

Yea a surprisingly small number of people don’t know a git remote can literally be any folder outside of your tree, over almost any kind of connection.

I thought about doing a forge but realized that if I was the only one working on this stuff then I could do the same thing by setting my remote to a folder on my NAS.

This seems cool but also a gateway for RSI

This is why I like playing games through proton on Linux and the steam deck. Being able to “pause” an unpausable game by hitting the power button is great.

You don’t need to run the LLM on the device. It supports 13 different protocols for both text completion and chat completion.

There’s also RisuAI which has some nicer features like better integration with function calling. Sillytavern is working on Function calling more but it’s not quite there yet.

The nice thing about Sillytavern is that it also has plugins for Alltalk for TTS and ComfyUi/A1111 for image generation directly from the roleplay interface.

It also has support for RAG through upload of documents and web scraping and a shitload of other features it would take awhile to list here.

What do you mean by personal package manager?

What do people use for command line utilities? The selection on flatpak is a bit sparse

It depends on whether those dependencies are shared with other programs.

It’s your queries + your IP combined with the rest of the data the net collects from you that identifies you.
