…People? I would say that’s too tautological, as the statement begins with “all people here are…”, and necessarily all people here are people, otherwise they’re not covered by the statement.

I’m only one of those things.
communism@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•If you’re in the market for a $1,900 color E Ink monitor, one of them exists now - Ars TechnicaEnglish2·17 hours agoI think the use case would be for laptops, for people who want to comfortably use their laptops outside or just want their laptop screens to be easier on the eyes. Only slightly different to a tablet insofar as it has a physical keyboard, so i imagine the tablets could be adapted.
I use Nextcloud, never tried Immich. Nextcloud has a lot of features—calendar, file hosting, photos app. Also has an instant messenger with video conferencing I think, never used that feature though. I just use it as it’s easier as separately setting up a calendar service and photo hosting.
I guess that’s why the man is broken
I’m good with general personal upkeep. Always do the dishes right after every meal, always shower daily, brush my teeth twice a day, etc. I also try to have vegetables every meal, but sometimes I will skip if I’m too lazy to cook vegetables (I’m also not too sure as to what constitutes “eating your veggies” tbh—do onions count? What about tomato sauce? etc)
communism@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Solved: ~/bin vs. ~/.local/bin for user bash scripts?7·4 days agoI have
~/.local/bin
added to my PATH for things i want in my PATH, and~/scripts
for things I don’t want in my PATH. Both managed by chezmoi. I’m surprised if there’s anyone who wants most of their bash scripts in PATH. I only have like 5 scripts in~/.local/bin
; the others get executed on an automated basis (eg on startup or by a cronjob), or so infrequently that I don’t want them in my PATH.
In this case it’s because part of the joke is the quote tweet. You could also link to the tweet instead of a screenshot but then we need to connect to Musk’s servers at some point (even if through a proxy like nitter)
Yeah it depends. For “What’s the best laptop for Linux”, literally just look it up; there’s hundreds of articles, forum threads, Lemmy/Reddit posts, etc discussing this topic. But I don’t think there’s an issue asking for hardware recs if you are explaining a specific use-case. I would say still do an online search first—like some use-cases are quite general, e.g. for music production, for gaming, and so on. And even for the most general cases, I think if your thread is more something like “does anyone else disagree that ThinkPads are good for Linux?” that’s also fine, because it’s actually sharing your opinion and giving something more to go off of than “give me a laptop”.
communism@lemmy.mlto Linux@programming.dev•Lenovo Cuts the Windows Tax and offers Cheaper Laptops with Linux Pre-installed6·8 days agoI would personally get a second hand cheap laptop off ebay or a local 2nd hand electronics store, and then just install the distro of your choice on it. Can’t really think of an instance where a computer would come with an OS and I’d just use it as-is rather than installing my own, but I guess if you want a fairly generic eg Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, Mint, etc setup then it could work. But definitely don’t limit yourself to preinstalled laptops, since installing an OS only takes an afternoon if you pick an OS with a more fine-grained install like Arch or Gentoo, and about the same time as installing user software for distros that have more streamlined installs.
Both this and the OP link don’t work
I prefer fdisk. Idk, the sort of linear nature and simplicity appeals to me. As opposed to a tui with more going on.

Unfortunately for you I can recognise the URL of the official video upon hover. Try a reupload next time maybe :)
communism@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•"1.32 MB" Is that pronounced, "one-point-three-two" megabytes, or "one-point-thirty-two" megabytes?111·10 days agoOne point three two, or one three two if it’s obvious from context where the decimal point is. That’s how you’re meant to pronounce digits after the decimal point in general.
communism@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Atomic Linux Distros: What Barriers Stand Between You and Making the Switch?6·11 days agoMy main reason is one you listed. My setup works well for me; I enjoy it; and I don’t feel the need to fix what ain’t broke (when the “fix” likely involves breaking a lot of things I need to fix, and generally a lot of time and effort). Plus, from what I can tell, if you are particular about parts of your system, the immutable distros on offer are not diverse enough to cater to you—eg can I use my preferred init system, runit? All the immutable distros I know are systemd (which I am not a big hater of, but I like and am accustomed to runit already).
Edit: saw what you said at the end about what it would take for me to switch. It would be if I had a real use case for it, eg I regularly had problems that an immutable distro would solve, or I could see a way that an immutable distro would drastically improve my workflow.
communism@lemmy.mlto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•The general feeling of documentating things7·11 days agoAlthough it’s pretty easy to stumble upon some guide that you don’t understand that gets you to enable dev mode. Not saying it happens a lot, but there’s not a very high bar for the test for enabling dev mode.
Bucket of cold water, stick your feet into it.
Tin foil in the windows to reflect radiation.
Cold tap over inside of forearms and wrists (iirc ears work well too, but of course a more awkward reach if you’re just using a bathroom tap).
Why have you (or whoever you got the image from) rewritten what the Windows screenshot says but in red?
That’s fair, but in my case
~/scripts/
acts as my prefix. I suppose that narrows down a lot what your prefix can be though, if it has to be a valid path in which your scripts live.
