Not to mention that MBFC is Israeli affiliated lmao

This is a regular occurrence and honestly we need to stop recommending dual boot. Use separate drives if you need to, but sharing the same drive is destined to brick something

As I said, feel free to log into Reddit dot com if your goal is to experience the internet fed to you by the US state department. Spamming muh tiannamen or muh russia when you’re clearly fine with SOME war crime denialism is the sign of a mind that clearly isn’t ready to graduate from the funko pop subreddit.

for sure, I thought the hire was weird in the first place. Did just mean that it doesn’t look like GNOME fired her lol.

She did do some good stuff but GNOME really did get what they asked for

Rarely, but I’ve contributed to a couple that I use.

Also, just a note that writing big reports is a valid contribution! It can really help both the regular maintainers finding and fixing bugs, but also gives new devs more potential work to pick up for first contributions.

In theory they (or someone else) could just bundle an open source copy of the assets no different to having a different texture pack in a game.

There’s some decent forks currently so I wouldn’t worry about the technology, but yeah the organisation is probably going to implode and reorg soon

Yeah I didn’t realise they were rar formats from how they show up on disk - Usually people name.their.torrents.like.this so it fucks up typical file name conventions.

I’ll keep that in mind too, thanks! Not using qbitmanage yet though I’ll have to look into that 👀

EDIT: There’s a fix. https://unpackerr.zip Automatically unzips these rar containers into coherent files for importing via sonarr/radarr. I suppose you can do this manually with tar if you’re brave.

don’t.

Fucking hell lmao y’all need to go back to reddit this is straight up high school drama behaviour.

Grow up, I’m serious. Of course you’re gonna get banned for brigading into a community and going “muh tiannamen square???” like that meme hasn’t been run into the fucking ground already.

Make a new community on a new instance, it really is that simple! and if people have issues with the moderation on lemmy.ml (they clearly don’t, beyond a few people who demand everyone listens to their concern trolling) then they’ll move, but otherwise you’re gonna have to accept that people really don’t give a rats ass about the united states foreign ministry and its opinions.

There’s also all of these communities on Reddit if you’re truly unhappy that the volunteer owned and run social media you signed up for isn’t being astroturfed with US-Israeli state press releases.

Join literally any other community if you’re upset at their moderation, which again is only upsetting y’all because it doesn’t align to Reddit and the US state department

go back to reddit if you want to live in the bubble of “America does nothing wrong”

I think a lot of new indie Devs, having little knowledge of the actual state of the industry, see a publisher offering them big money to make video games (their dream!) and ignore (or lack resources to properly interrogate) the fine print. There are countless examples of publishers simply destroying indie Devs on a whim like this.

Not if you call it GNU/Linux 🤓☝️

These morons are insufferable because they don’t believe anything exists outside the frame of the photo. they have worse object permanence to babies

I didn’t say you have to know everything, just like I don’t know everything in my house and how it works, but I do know how to do basic repairs so I don’t pay loads of money for a guy to come and unclog a drain. I know how to reset my circuit breakers, how to change a fuse, how to change a lightbulb.

That’s what the terminal is. No one here is telling you to write a bootloader in assembly or meticulously study kernel environment parameters. No one advocating for basic knowledge of a terminal likely has knowledge on subnet masks, compilers, or other low level systems that a modern Linux abstracts for you.

But! I know how to update my packages from a terminal. I know how to install a package outside of a repository, or one that’s not listed on my graphical package manager. I know how to export an environment variable to get my software to work how it should.

That’s what “knowing the terminal” gives you. It’s a basic skill that unlocks you from being a mere “user” of a system to an owner of a system. I don’t think everyone will ever need the terminal, but there are people who are replying to me that seem to have a genuine fear that people have knowledge of their computers in a meaningful way.

Knowledge is autonomy for whatever you do, and there’s a reason why the most profitable of systems are the very systems that are locked down abstracted and “user friendly” in all ways that harm a user’s rights and freedoms.

I don’t think it’s a theory rather than an objective fact. A lot of “traditional” computer skills have almost totally gone extinct because consumer devices are designed to hide as many system features from you as possible.

The saving grace is that even being raised without it, you end up needing these skills to become a developer of any decent calibre. That gives at least some route for these skills to transfer to new generations.
