Yeah, same. I have literally zero use for it outside tinkering, and knowing myself, I’ll play with it for a couple of days, then forget it in a drawer, rinse and repeat every handful of months. It’s just expensive enough that it feels pretty wasteful to do so lol
Technically, no, indeed. On paper, most (outside UNIX purists) refer to it (and MINIX) as Unix-like, as they don’t share much from UNIX outside the underlying philosophy. Ritchie himself still thought of Linux as mostly Unix in essence. Same kind of Ayckchyually, basically lol
The Docker engine itself, meaning the dockerd daemon, its APIs and the docker CLI, are all under Apache 2.0. The non-free parts are mostly in their Docker Desktop offering, which is mostly a convenience GUI and not absolutely necessary (the easiest, on Windows and macOS, probably, but not the only one) to run Docker on most platforms.
“We will not risk plunging our homes, our schools, our hospitals, our special care homes, our businesses into the cold and darkness because of the ideological whims of others,” the speech said.
The Saskatchewan Party’s government’s throne speech claimed new federal regulations will kill thousands of jobs and devastate the province’s resource sector which the government says is already following some of the most environmentally-friendly practices in the world.
“It makes no sense, especially at a time that our national government should be promoting Canadian oil and gas as a reliable and environmentally sustainable option to countries facing energy shortages,” the speech highlighted.
Yes, the carbon tax is maybe not the best way to attack the issues we’re having. But what fucking parallel universe do these people live in that they can outright call the global climate crisis that’s already happening the “ideological whims of others” and gas/oil “sustainable”?
Yet many people prefer mechanical pencils. Are you against choice? What is there to get or “need”?
I mean, why compare it with vim at all then. Apples and oranges…
I’m sorry for your sister, but if shoplifting alone, a reality all retail businesses deal with, to some level (which according to this very article, just came back to pre pandemic levels, so we aren’t talking about something new), was enough to kill her business… What kind of shit margins do pet stores run on? 🤨
Weird flex but ok
we can’t stop anywhere
Why? No road stops anywhere in your 30h trip? No parkings in the city? No motels anywhere?
my final driving stretch is the final one and 30 mins of under 40 kmph in the city
More than half accidents happen a handful of miles from home. Most accidents are caused by intersections. You’re not less likely to have an accident cause you’re almost there.
Its also its past midnight and its empty roads rn.
So exactly when one of y’all almost killed me just days ago! Even better.
Havent seen in a vehicle minus trailers in the last hour
Good to know. We’ll know who to blame if a trailer goes off road.
There are no excuses. Don’t drive sleep deprived.
I never get the need to use a mechanical pencil and graphite pencils exists
Ah, yes, 2h of sleep after 36h of consecutive waking time, now that’s safe.
It’s not a contest, you know. I almost got killed by one of y’all just last week coming back from the hospital late at night, sleepyhead almost shoved me in the ravine. You’re just as, if not more, dangerous as drunk drivers. I hope you get a DUI.
Fucking get some sleep before taking a couple tons of metal at highway speeds on the same road as other people. You used the term “unwise” elsewhere in the comments, I call it criminally negligent.
It’s hard to hate nano, but IMHO there also isn’t anything to like in particular either. It’s basically a TUI notepad. It’s there, it lets people edit files… and that’s pretty much all there is to it.
What do you mean by “useful for other stuff”? It’s still double the investment, what do you gain for this much, realistically, from a purely hobbyist, I’ll check things with my 6yo, PoV? Are we talking genuine trash to good, or more like acceptable to great?
“Du” is used in the sense of “some” milk, while “de” is more “of” milk. Not sure it’s the exact translation but that’s how it’s mapped in my French speaking ESL brain.
It’s one of the biggest problems, yeah. The thing is, the way these work, they range from rather intrusive process/memory watching to literal rootkits that can access and do anything on your computer. Unless the anti-cheat software’s developers make it explicitly compatible with Proton or natively to Linux, the chance they’d work on anything not Windows is close to nil. So it’s up to game developers.
You said “not a Linux fan […] needs to be more user friendly”, I straight up asked you what was more user friendly about Windows, and this was your answer, which sparked this very exchange.
Edit: OK, I see where my confusion came from. I thought you were the person I was answering to initially, and you are not. My bad, you indeed didn’t say that.
Oh, there are indeed issues and bugs. For what it’s worth, I get a similar bug on Windows where sometimes a window doesn’t change taskbars when I drag it to the next monitor ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Again, my point was your arguments are illustrating my initial take really well. You’re - rightfully so - criticizing Cinnamon, but describing it as a “Linux” thing. You didn’t mention Windows once, but you also did describe Windows’ multiple taskbar’s behavior as the thing you need. Can we not dismiss everything I say like I’m being a fanboy just for telling you software issues and bugs on one desktop environment are not a “Linux” thing, but a "software on top of Linux " thing? Yes, on Windows, your window manager is part of Windows. On Linux, it isn’t. Hell, some don’t even have panels by default.
FWIW, I’m far from a fanboy. I love macOS, still use and like Windows for other reasons, and am also extremely critical of Linux where it fails to perform. OSes are just tools, means to an end, IMHO. Please, let’s not devolve the conversation to this kind of tribalism. The Linux world can be confusing enough as it is, coming back to my first comment again… Sometimes the “fanboys” are just people who have been bitten by these things for longer than you (I’ve been using some form of Linux for ~16+ years) and wanted to help or explain some common misconception.
If this can help, I think all of KDE Plasma (both the default ones, and Latte), MATE and XFCE lets you duplicate panels.
See, this is exactly two of the points I just made.
One, the criticism you just made, and the one I keep hearing, is that you don’t like that it doesn’t work like Windows. We jump in it with some preconceptions of what a computer should act like because of familiarity.
Second, Mint/Cinnamon is merely one desktop environment on one distribution. It’s not Linux, it’s that one program (Cinnamon’s taskbar) you happen not to like. Same for the disk auto mounting, many desktop environments support doing that. Seems like Cinnamon doesn’t?
Fair enough! I’m an English second language speaker too, I understand the struggle!
But to answer about relevance: to me, text editors are just tools. I don’t really care which one you use, as long as you do the job well. I use vim (or honestly, mostly vim bindings) everywhere I can as they’re just second nature to me at this point, and I go around text much quicker when thinking in text objects than the typical Ctrl+Alt+… and home/end/pg up/pg down shortcuts. I could just as well work with Notepad++, it’s just gonna slow me down.
So in that sense, it’s just like a pencil. Some have preferences as to which pencils they like to write with. I like fountain pens and mechanical pencils. You seem to prefer graphite pencils, and guess you probably prefer ball pens ;)
