KISSmyOS,

It’s the only one that lets me unzip, touch, finger and mount.

speed limit of 30km/h within city limits
no street parking allowed
maximize budget for traffic enforcement staff

KISSmyOS,

It would be the fastest way to trigger riots in German streets, that’s for sure.
And then the rioters would be handed tickets by traffic cops, and grudgingly pay them, cause it’s the law.

KISSmyOS,

And also completely useless.
Just roll a 120-sided die, divide the result by 30 and round up.

Sniff, sniff…MMmmmmhh, smells like Arch!

KISSmyOS,

Imagine if an experienced pilot crashed on every 20th landing.

I pronounce it like an aborted ass-kick.

KISSmyOS,

Mich würde viel mehr interessieren, wie viele “selbst verursachte Alleinunfälle” von Radfahrern in Wirklichkeit durch miese Radwege verursacht wurden. Und in meinem Bekanntenkreis gab es allein schon 3 Unfälle, bei denen ein Autofahrer dem Radfahrer ohne Blinken den Weg abgeschnitten hat, der Radfahrer beim Ausweichen gestürzt ist, der Autofahrer einfach weiterfuhr und die hinzugerufene Polizei das als Alleinunfall aufgenommen hat.

Bisher war bei allen Spaltungen der AfD der rechtsextremere Splitter erfolgreich. Rechts von der Union ist einfach nur für Nazis Platz.

Die “bürgerliche Rechte” wird von der CDU/CSU vollumfänglich abgedeckt. Und das wird sich auch nicht ändern, den wenn man von der Union den rechten Flügel abspaltet, bliebe nur ein Klon der bauchschmerzengeplagten Seeheimer-SPD übrig.

KISSmyOS,

Koalieren? Mit der Deutschen Volksfront? NIEMALS! SPALTER!

How will we ever get away from plastics when they are ubiquitous for safety

Plastic seals food, sterile medical implements, medicine, beverages, etc… it’s seems like plastic is used as a way to seal things safely. Post pandemic rising, I see even more. My work used to be have plastic utensils in the cafeteria, for example, an already wasteful thing. Now, post-2020, every fork, knife, and spoon is...

KISSmyOS, (edited )

We don’t have to get rid of plastics.
Get rid of cars (which emit the most micro-plastics), fishing nets (which cause the most plastic pollution in the ocean), plastics in clothing and packaging where it isn’t needed.
Then use bio-degradable plastics for whatever’s left. And single use plastics only for the tiny reminder of use cases where it’s needed, like medicine.

Entspricht der Serverraum eigentlich den Brandschutzbestimmungen?

KISSmyOS,

In our defense, Arch is the best OS out there by far, if you aren’t too dumb to install it.
(I use Arch, by the way.)

KISSmyOS,

so… constantly and unprovoked forced to defend their choice of OS and refute bullshit myths by Windows users?

KISSmyOS,

The devs worked for a promise and a prayer, the 1-2 people who run Fntastic lived off the investors’ money for 5 years, with a salary they set for themselves.
The Steam money will go towards what they owe their investors, but it won’t be enough.

Death has killed only 109 out of 117 billion people who ever lived.
That’s a mortality rate of just around 93% over all of human history, so we can’t conclude that every human will eventually die.

KISSmyOS,

uninstall gnome-clocks (it doesn’t remove the standard clock in your panel)

How to solve this boot error message? (lemmy.world)

I’m on debian 11, this error doesn’t show up every time, but once it appear I need more that one reboot and it will fix automatically without doing nothing, don’t know the reason why (just read that can be kernel dependent). What I want to avoid is that maybe it’s just a warning of somethink that will cause a pc break in...

KISSmyOS, (edited )

In the grub menu, choose advanced options and then choose an older kernel to boot into.
If that boots fine, remove and reinstall the newest installed kernel and run sudo update-grub.
That should be the easiest way to fix the most possible causes of this error.

Edit: Now would be a very good time to back up all your data to an external drive. This might be a sign of your hard drive failing.

KISSmyOS,

I wouldn’t assume a failing disk either.
But every time there’s an error you can’t pin on something you just did, a full backup should be the first thing you do as a matter of principle.

KISSmyOS,

By default, your grub menu should show up every time you boot.
If it doesn’t, boot your PC and do:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
You need these lines:
GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu

Every line starting with:
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT
should be commented out like so:
#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT

Then run sudo update-grub and reboot.

What this does:

  • sets a countdown of 10 seconds before grub boots the kernel
  • tells grub to show the boot menu during that countdown
  • doesn’t use a hidden countdown that waits for a button press to show the menu

In the grub menu, select advanced options and there you should be able to select an older kernel to boot.

KISSmyOS,

I think the newer kernel should work after reinstallation.
If it doesn’t and you want to stay with the older one:

apt list --installed linux-image*

There should be a package with a specific version number in its name. For example, the standard kernel for Debian 11 is:
linux-image-5.10.0-26-amd64

Uninstall the linux-image-… package you don’t want to keep.
Also uninstall linux-image-amd64 which is the meta-package that pulls in the newest kernel version. Without it, you won’t get new kernel versions in upgrades.

Someone on that other site did the math and conclusively calculated that High Hrothgar is about 2000ft above sea level.

KISSmyOS,

That movie was shit.

KISSmyOS,

They ran with their investors’ money, not the money from Steam.

KISSmyOS,

They claimed a 5 year development time, and what they shipped was a tutorial that lasts 2 hours (to cover the refund window) and a completely empty game afterwards, that consists of you wandering around a map they bought as an asset pack.
They used the hype about the game to make “behind the scenes” videos which were actually ads for an app they made on the side.
The last 2 games they released were abandoned in similar circumstances shortly after launch.
There’s enough evidence of malice here.

KISSmyOS,

Where should I mount my additional internal HDD’s?
/media doesn’t fit cause they aren’t removable
/mnt doesn’t fit cause they aren’t mounted temporarily
Currently I have them mounted as /home/user/data and /home/user/backup.
Any reason not to do it like this?

KISSmyOS,

Just put all of that in subfolders of /fuck_the_FHS/

KISSmyOS,

My personal pet peeve is that Firefox profiles are in ~/.mozilla/firefox and Thunderbird profiles are in ~/.thunderbird.
If your flagship product creates a folder named after your company, why not use it for all software by your company???

KISSmyOS,

Oh no, does that mean I have to replace my Radio Shack CTR-41 cassette drive?

recommendations for lightweight window managers for an old netbook

Hi, I’ve got an old netbook from Samsung that has an old Intel Atom CPU (Intel Atom N455 1.66 GHz). I installed Arch on it and am now thinking of a suitable window manager. I tried Hyprland (kinda expecting it to not work really) whick didn’t start at all. Before I had Debian with Gnome, which technically worked, but...

KISSmyOS,

Protip: It’s impossible to make it look good.

KISSmyOS, (edited )

I wonder if they’ll finally get rid of Internet Explorer.

Or the file chooser from Windows 3.1.

KISSmyOS,

uber geeks with 20 years of Linux need not apply…thx!

Well, I would have suggested trying out Linux Mint as a live system to see if it runs on your hardware and fits your needs before installation. Test out wifi, bluetooth, video streaming and printing especially.
Also checking out whether your games are supported on www.protondb.com

But I guess my advice isn’t welcome since I’ve used Linux for too long.

KISSmyOS,

KISSmyOS,

There’s no good reason to do anything in life at all.

KISSmyOS,

For what purpose? Continue living? To do what?

KISSmyOS,

The Last of Us absolutely blew me away.

KISSmyOS,

Da stimme ich dir zu, da hätte man Investitionen raushauen müssen wie blöd.

KISSmyOS,

Nette Suggestivfrage.

Ich persönlich glaube, dass unser auf Schulden und Zinsen basierendes Wirtschaftssystem zwingend in den Kollaps führt.
Es zwingt Staaten dazu, Schulden aufzunehmen und auf Kosten von anderen Staaten, nicht nachwachsenden Resourcen und kommenden Generationen “Wachstum” zu erzeugen, nur um die Grundbedürfnisse der Bürger decken zu können.

Innerhalb der Logik dieses Systems sind Schulden nicht schlecht und können nicht vermieden werden. Aber wenn die stärkste Volkswirtschaft der EU seit über 20 Jahren gegen den EU “Stabilitätspakt” verstößt, dann stimmt grundlegend etwas nicht.

KISSmyOS,

That’s cause they were mediocre and also abandoned shortly after launch.

KISSmyOS,

Solange man nicht davon leben kann, ändert das nichts. Dann muss man halt trotzdem oft zur Arbeit statt in die Sitzung.
Und davon leben kann der allerkleinste Teil der Lokalpolitiker.
Die Aufwandsentschädigung steht in keinem Verhältnis zum Aufwand (und in letzter Zeit, zur Gefahr und Bedrohung durch rechte Hetzer).

KISSmyOS,

It’s a Half-Life mod where you have to navigate through an insanely deadly maze by solving movement puzzles, to the amusement of a sadistic commentator and audience, without knowing why you’re even in there. Level design is unique and minimalist, the soundtrack is absolutely awesome.
And it came out 5 years before Portal.

KISSmyOS,

I wouldn’t call it super hard, but you usually die a few dozen times per level until you’ve figured out the solution to reach the next one.
And there are over 100 levels.

It’s extremely frustrating at times, and that is the point. The game immerses you in the experience of being a trapped lab rat.
It’s not a relaxing, fun game.

KISSmyOS,

What’s the point of your comment? No one claimed animals don’t kill their own kind.

KISSmyOS,

Yes. Do you know that there’s a difference between “kill” and “eat”?

KISSmyOS,

Ah yes, green Debian
