you could add another layer of swap in between ram and disk by using zram. as it compresses swap in ram with a very fast compressing algorithm it effectively expands the ram size

btop makes the dedicated gpu turn on, wasting energy and disrupting its power saving. yes, this can not be disabled in btop, so it happily shows no load on the gpu. gee, thanks.

Floppinux anyone?

Long time ago I had a 3.5" HD floppy disk Linux with graphical user interface and ethernet and some programs on it. But 64 bit and the increased kernel size probably make this difficult nowadays.

Ubuntu was once an okay-ish distribution, many many years ago. Then Canonical got rogue, made some very sketchy and irritating decisions (walled garden, snap, advertisements with Amazon, now advertisements in their package manager, … so much more)

Ubuntu is the bane of Linux. Use upstream Debian if you like apt; Linux Mint for an easy entry; Arch, if you’re quick of wits and want to widen your knowledge and skillset.

I really hate that picture. Imagine swapping the man and tho woman. He and their two kids waiting, knifes ready, for the spouse to come back from work, ready for stabbing an unsuspect. Wow, what an outcry this would have.

You can download maps for offline use just like in OsmAnd. I used OsmAnd before but the UI has become sooo sluggish I switched over to OM

if anyone else was wondering, 200 °F are 93.33333 °C

I take offense they are called “alcohol FREE”. That’s just false advertisement, whatever is in the fineprint.

Read the comments in this post. They are worded like “yeah, I like to have a beer sometimes, but without alcohol, so I chose an “alkoholfrei” beer”. When they, in fact, are drinking an alcoholic brewage, still.

“alcohol free” is not free of alcohol but can contain up to 0.5% alcohol.

This could be fatal for people having had an alcohol addition because that sets them right back into the circle of drug abuse.

Hey there. Do you also use Arch btw?

and CI/CD goes “f*ck you, no deployment today, Linter is unhappy”

“It will go away, no harm done” is your stance? Well, there is harm done, if not only on the societies feeling of sanity and security. What was the purpose of that action? To seed shock and “ruffle some feathers”, sow disbalance under the coat of “shaking sleeping people up”.

“No harm done”? Well, then let me waterboard you, hit you, hit your wife and children. The blue specks will go away, no harm done. Your psychological effects? They will go away, seek therapy. You’re still less affected people than the society.

Of course this was sarcasm. But think about what stance you just took and reflect.

Dude, you chose the wrong way.

sudo pacman -Syu Cool, more free stuff! Fresh as a morning breeze.

As a fellow gamer said: “Y’all may kick and scream, you’re still the minority. Cope, loser.”

Seriously, what are you doing here, blaming? Deal with what a large portion of people voted for. Look forward, find solutions, act.

Check, check, check, check. Wow.

i use arch btw

OP stated it happens to their “best” shirt, so those are $25 upwards easily. Take two, get one wool.

I suppose washing intervals depend on work, climate and personal disposition but in any case you get way more mileage between washes on wool than cotton. My cotton shirts would last only two days before I had to wash them again and they were never as fresh as wool shirts straiht from the washing machine. I also did not say “wear it for two weeks in a row” but one 2-3 days ,then hang it oit in the fresh air while wearing the next. Then after some days you can wear the first again because wool is kind of self cleaning and anti bacterial. No problem. I have daily meetings in person and I have to be clean and nice.
