  • What file systems are you using on your devices and why?

    Jump

  • I started using it on my NAS and also on root. Then I switched my personal machine to ZFS on root. I manually created both setups (somehow). This is the worst part in my opinion. The best decision, though, was to ditch grub in favor of zfsbootmenu. Skips all the brittle steps with grub and its boot partition. Now I just have zfsbootmenu directly loaded by UEFI from the EFI partition. Everything important is directly on ZFS, including... well, everything. Can also use snapshots but I have not needed that yet.

  • [2020] 20 Minutes for a Statue to be in Before a Neighbor Calls the Cops to Investigate.

    Jump

  • I watched a documentation about police (EU) some months ago. They were called because supposedly there were "foreigners" causing trouble. They arrived and tried to figure out what the deal was but they were very confused. So the "troublemakers" were friendly and cooperative and the old man who called the police wanted the others gone. Police quickly realized who the actual problem was but the guy was having none of it. He even escalated and was even taken into custody if I recall correctly.

    Not sure where the hell I was going with this story but your story reminded me of it. Something about suspicion I guess?

  • Who the hell is MrBeast?

  • I feel the same way. The only videos I watch are the ones on the philanthropy channel and the ones where the core is giving away money or stuff (e.g. cars) to random people (or people in need).

    Though, I also question the sustainability of (some of) the philanthropy actions. Don't get me wrong, giving water and light to people in the middle of nowhere is nice, but when they become dependent and they can't fix it when it breaks, they could be screwed big time.

    The like five minutes I "researched" the "main" guy of the philanthropy channel (Derrick? Taran?) I came to the conclusion that he seems genuinely dedicated to trying helping people.

  • What YouTubers did you used to watch back then but not anymore?

    Jump

  • Ethoslab. Pretty sure he still does quality content (probably) but I just can't watch minecraft content anymore. Also, I don't even have the time to watch/play everything what I really do want.

  • She has a video on YT on her own channel about that. Pretty sure the problem is the... negativity against her. She appeared in one or two LTT videos for a brief moment though. And there is at least one video by her on floatplane. But I am not following anything actively so that is the only info I have.

  • Every time I open YT on my tablet I am extremely confused what the shit titles and thumbnails are. DeArrow is one heck of an essential extension.

  • What is your favourite game with native Linux port?

    Jump

  • Weirdly, years ago when I last played it, I had to use proton because of performance problems. I have it in the backlog for for quite some time again already and hope I can use it natively with all its glory in 4k now.

  • How do I do a bare-metal install (Debian) without a monitor+keyboard?

    Jump

  • My go-to solution is to use a vm and pass it raw access to the os disk on my normal desktop. Then I just put the disk into the server.

  • Summer is the worst season of the year, isn't?

    Jump

  • Also, stronger, blinding sunlight and more headaches.

  • Naming is hard

    Jump

  • They somehow got the message and actually implemented that it can checks notes open emails.

  • Developer posts secret key on GitHub, loses $40K in 2 minutes

    Jump

  • I never understood why everyone uses it as a ignore list. In my own and work repositories I always exclude everything by default and re-add stuff explicitly. I have had enough random crap checked in in the past by coworkers. Granted, the whole source folder is fully included but that has never been a problem.

  • Glad I was too dumb to finish college...

    Jump

  • I had a teacher that taught both religion and chemistry. People who learned about that often made comments about it being weird. But he insisted that both topics are not exclusive to each other. It has been a long time since school but I think his reasoning (if that is the correct word) has been that one is philosophical and the other scientific which are separate worlds. You can't prove stuff in faith scientifically but neither has religion a place in the " real" world. And, to be completely honest, he was by far one of the best teachers I have ever had.

  • Synapse, backed by a16z, has collapsed, and 10 million consumers could be hurt

    Jump

  • Man, I always found that weird but never looked it up...

  • And I thought that "8" had something to do with "netes" because it somewhat resembles the pronunciation 🤦‍♂️

  • So here's a story of, by far, the weirdest bug I've encountered in my CS career.

    Jump

  • Yeah, if you get this exception and not doing anything not-"normal" then the chance is high that there are multiple versions of the same class. A possible way to trigger this is when extracting code to a separate module without changing the package. If you copy instead of move and change something you will have a bad time. It is also possible that the IDE complains but building and executing works.

    Fun times!

  • Microsoft's carbon emissions up nearly 30% thanks to AI

    Jump

  • First time I read in windows update "we are commited to reduce co2 emissions" I was like "wtf".

  • I'll never understand this kind of mindset.

    Jump

  • I certainly don't care if others get the game other ways (except unauthorized key stores). I am just happy that good games get their recognition and give people joy. I am in the fortunate situation that I am able to just buy all games I want. Heck, I even bought games for friends who were unsure or even dismissive "if it would be worth it". I also buy/bought games that I never played or won't play but watched streamers play it.

  • What video games are you playing? What have you finished recently? What do you plan to play? - Video Game General Discussion Thread #24

    Jump

  • Finish? I never finish anything. But I stopped playing Ostriv. Too many rough edges and a bug made me stop completely.

    Currently: Farthest Frontier: cool but still some rough edges.

    Plan? I never have plans.

    Ongoing once or twice a week, still: Guild Wars 2 WvW

  • What apps would you love to have open-source alternatives for?

    Jump

  • I sometimes needed something like powerquery from microsoft excel. To like quickly get specific data from a structured file.
