It’s also kinda antithetical to what people are saying, which is that mint is great out of the box.

For me it was the objectively incorrect choice. Sound issues, display issues, slow. Whatever is up with mint, it absolutely doesn’t work with my hardware.
I mean they didn’t, cause you can just open another terminal window or pull the plug on the computer, but like someone else said, a binary can’t change the directory for you
cdis a shell built in, so I’m pretty sure this would be trivial to get past.
Good point. Also it wouldn’t stop you from just opening another terminal window haha.
So then you either cat the executable and hope it’s a shell script, you output the binary with a hex viewer and compare, you modify the executable so it’s in a lower permission group and thus wouldn’t have access to erase the drive, there’s like a hundred ways to solve this.
Well yeah? And you do it in a vm. But seems like a decently simple problem anyway.
ls -aland compare the sizes.
It’s not a rumor, systemd merged a PR that explicitly said it was to allow handling the new age verification laws. Just because they aren’t actually verifying anything doesn’t mean that they didn’t merge code in direct support of the laws. And why in the world would this even be handled at systemd level anyway?
What does an eink screen have to do with anything? I work outside in a hammock during the summer on my mac and never have to bring it in to charge once, unless I forgot to the day before. That’s with running heavy applications like Jetbrains IDEs or Lightroom.
Cause mac laptops last like two days on a charge? If they lasted an hour people would return them. They’re not fucking dells.
Not if you’re using a macbook…

51·1 month agoThey’re making a joke. The numbers in the IP are way too high for v4, but the format isn’t v6, so it’s a “new range” of v8.

51·1 month agoHonestly if you’re that worried about it, I’d just wait and not use anything. Instead of wasting time trying to find a product that probably won’t get better, you can wait and get Fluxer when they make it ready.
Or you could pull stoat and modify the code yourself.

3·1 month agoAre you talking about self hosting for fluxer? They explicitly state in their documentation they don’t want people using the current version because they’re doing a rewrite, so you should wait.
Explain why.
I thought it said “nerd space” not “third space” and I was like what’s that??!!

7·1 month agoI’d never heard that you could do this but it seems very smart. You could always contribute the features you want to Mere, since it’s open source. https://github.com/cfu288/mere-medical
That’s probably more likely to help you than trying to using a free version of a paid product.
I mean, I would have thought the context was clear that that’s not really what’s being discussed. But if not, then sure, if you just have files backed up, then all you need to worry about is making sure you have enough copies of that as you need to not lose it.
I mean… you’re the one changing the context. they literally were stating what they were doing with their backup, and you moved the goalposts. not even the original meme image implied it was about whatever the hell you’re on about.
No, you’re the one in a conversation that’s really not about your type of situation.
We’re talking about businesses who have servers - internet servers, internal servers
ok so you just started your own conversation without telling anyone then. yeah now it’s clear why you’re arguing with them like that. No one said anything of the sort until you came along. Their comment was a top level comment on a meme image, that has nothing to do with business requirements or servers. You’re just making up the conversation and pretending like TrickDacy was “in a conversation that’s not really about [their] type of situation”.

I’m pretty sure there’s some software to prevent what the other user said from happening as well.
