I also just switched to KDE/plasma on my Pop!_OS machine after historically using either its built-in GNOME, or before that I would use I guess Unity on Ubuntu. I’ve tried KDE in passing in the past but I’ve never fully appreciated its delighfulness before. The widgets, the configurability, the clipboard history!
I migrated to fish recently and at first I was really annoyed that I had to decompose my ~/.bash_aliases into 67 different script files inside ~/.config/fish/functions/, but (a) I was really impressed with the tools that fish gave me to quickly craft those script files (-
~> function serg
sed -i -e "s/$1/$2/g" $(rg -l "$1")
end
~> funcsave serg
funcsave: wrote ~/.config/fish/functions/serg.fish
) - and (b) I realized it was something I ought to have done a while ago anyway.
Anyway, all this to say that fish ships with a lot of cool, sensible & interesting features, and one of those features is a built-in place for where your user scripts should live. (Mine is a symlink to ~/Dropbox/config/fish_functions so that I don’t need to migrate them across computers).
oh geez, thanks for the correction there
there’s video, no one was doing anything to him. he got out of his SUV, started yelling at people, returned to the vehicle, got back out with the weapon at his side. self defense would have been (a) for literally anyone to have threatened him and (b) for him to simply leave the scene.
oh I don’t consider them obnoxious. I’m from Python-land, they’ve been saving our asses with good tooling lol. the quality of output from the rust ecosystem speaks for itself
Interesting. Is this top answer accurate then?

It’s horrifying to me that any of these fucking games are running outside userspace. Is anti cheat the only reason why that is necessary? Why is it necessary for anti cheat?

Okay, but “never have I ever understood why X” is just turning “never have I ever” into a platform for random opinions like what happened to the Kermit sipping tea meme.
Whoah, managing that in Florida is no joke! At least you have access to seafood.
I like seeing a group evolve and form good friendships. I also like sci fi and weirdness.
You better get on that Scavengers Reign train. There’s only one season right now, but it rules, especially from a “weirdness” perspective, and there’s not going to be more unless it gets some more attention.
I’ve gone back and forth between a common bashrc file in my Dropbox folder that is symlinked to ~/.bashrc on my devices, and one that is imported from a regular bashrc instead, and recently it ended up in a state where it accidentally tried to do both, resulting in an endless loop. I discovered this on my Pop!_OS PC, which reacted to this situation by crashing on login lol. What??
Ocaml stands for “Objective Categorical Abstract Machine Language”, so it’s pronounced like “Camel” but not named after it, unfortunately
If you have access to Disney+ or piracy, watching a couple of (they’re eight minutes long) episodes of the show Bluey would probably charm your butt off and also give you a lot to go on for fun ways to engage with kids.
It’s all about being real and in the moment, and giving them ways to experience novelty. A parenting book my partner was reading reminded her that all you need to do to engage a (toddler, but the point stands) child’s interest is to turn the laundry basket upside down. Everything that’s dull to you is new to them (and everything that’s exciting to you, they’re often not ready for yet).
Don’t touch my garbage! 😾
This summary from the Independent necessarily cuts out a lot of the nuance of AOC’s points - I say “necessarily” because she spoke on Instagram for a full hour - and one thing that she seemed to emphasize - more than the “They don’t 100% support Harris either” point - is there there is very little time remaining in the election year to make any changes to the ticket. There are just weeks until the Democratic convention, and Ohio requires the names to be finalized even before that. She also emphasized that any change to the ticket, especially any late change, increases the chance that the presidency will ultimately be decided - if not by the bureaucracy of a swing state, many of which, like Ohio, are Republican-controlled - then by a legal case that goes before the (corrupt, she didn’t need to explain, although there were arch eyebrows at this point) Supreme Court, which is just not an ideal situation for democracy.
You don’t need admin to plug your computer into the AV do you? I assumed it was OP’s computer.
How does this chrome add-on get installed in the first place?
I usually try out a couple of new distros whenever I am either setting up a new computer, or something happens with my current machine that requires a fresh OS anyway.
I’ve been married to Pop!_OS for a couple of years now. however, for the past couple of months I’ve been booting exclusively into KDE Plasma on my desktop computer; almost everything works really well for me in that environment, except the built-in Pop!_OS stuff itself, such as the pop shop, does not work very well. so I might end up switching to a distribution that’s built around KDE, such as KDE Neon.
I’m also pretty curious about the Nix package manager and the concept of immutable desktop systems, so I guess I might try NixOS at some point? I don’t know much about it yet.
