I’m so sorry

Looks great, I’ll give it a bash

One of the simplest ways to safeguard against breakage is to have your /home on a separate partition. I realised I wouldn’t need to backup and reformat it from the beginning, I just need to wipe the root drive and reinstall again.

It’s made even easier by writing an installation script. Simply put, you can pipe a list of packages into packstrap and use a little convenience package for pulling a partition scheme out of a file.

I like to tinker and I’m aware that things will break so I have these tools that let me rebuild the system again in as short a time as possible.

He died in 1982 but his works are hugely influential:
Philip K Dick.

What’s the full title?

Wayland isn’t trying to be X12 and since X11 has been around, there haven’t been plans for there to be an X12 either. You want to discourage people from using Wayland but don’t encourage people to contribute to X11. You’re so hellbent on taking Wayland down, rather than further convincing people that X11 is superior and it’s easier to improve.

I felt this with one of the laptops I put KDE Neon on. It had all manner of issues that never got a resolution.

And I say that Nacon’s problem is fucking over Frogwares over the Sinking City game. How about you pay the developers you scum

I love that Deadpool has replaced Ryan Reynolds because that’s basically who he is in public, all to manage his crippling anxiety.

At this point, Ubisoft and Bethesda games can be thrown in too.

Arch with Wayland and Pipewire. Running SwayWM and have never been happier with my setup.

Genuinely one of the best pieces of software that these heroes are giving away.

They may be dramatised but the Linux stuff he does by typing commands into the terminal is real.

Why, what? Why is the goal important to me? I just feel like there needs to be a goal beyond just collecting for the sake of collecting.

Pretty much, yeah. Shoes have some utility which varies between the type of shoe it is but that’s typically not a reason to collect shoes, it’s just how I see them. I don’t feel the need to have more than one type of shoe for the task I need them for.

Action figures I can see from the perspective of nostalgia, I guess. My friend collects Godzilla/Kaiju/80s Sci-Fi figures and I can get that they look nice on a shelf. But if we compare that to say Warhammer miniatures then it’s a different ballgame. Warhammer miniatures need to be assembled and then painted which is a time-consuming process especially for a beginner like me. Some people like assembling and painting miniatures others like the tabletop they’re used for so one group can cater to the other. Some people like doing both.

I mentioned my PS3 and abandonware titles but I’m not collecting them just because I want to own them. I back up the data from the discs onto my PC for preservation/emulation purposes.

So yeah, the goal is important to me.

I collect PS3/abandonware games and even I look at the shoe-collectors wondering what the goal is.

The most comprehensive Installation Guide is the one on ArchWiki bar none. I used the ArchWiki well before I started using Arch Linux, it’s just that good.

He’s hooked up to a polygraph machine which tests for truthfulness (with debatable accuracy). When asked if he spent their monthly budget on it, he says “yes” and his friend behind gives a thumbs up to indicate he’s telling the truth.

Not something I was aware of. Most people I talk to haven’t heard of them.

Sleep Token.

Not a single song I haven’t enjoyed. All I need now are their vinyls and a turntable.

Worship!
