Command make not found, but can be installed with apt-get install make.

If your PC is in another language, that shortcut gets changed. For example, in spanish it’s Ctrl+G (G from Guardar, I assume). It may seem intuitive, but not every app follows this change. It’s also way more difficult to hit with one hand, as the G is further from Ctrl than the S. Localized shortcuts are a thing I never understood about Windows, and I hated it while I used it.

After that I swithed to Linux, and I’ve been using NeoVim for a few years now. Instead of Ctrl+S I now compulsively [esc]:w[return], which, now that I think of it, may be even worse.

TF2 currently under attack by the aussies. I’m going to bed right now, so I can’t defend it.

The books they shared still had DRM on them. As we all know, if it has DRM you don’t own it. They never gave away any book, so I don’t see what they did wrong.

Indeed, the green cross is the symbol for pharmacies here in Spain and in most places I’ve been (including a bit of northern europe).

None of them sell cannabis. If legal to sell, it needs to be sold in separate stores, which usually don’t have flashing signs. Those stores can’t use the green cross as a symbol.

Someone said it before on the internet: Apple is not a tech company, Apple is a marketing company.

I don’t know about the framework laptop, but about the Minecraft question:

Yes, you can absolutely run Minecraft on Linux. It runs on top of Java, so it doesn’t really see the difference between the 2 OS. In fact, I’ve found that Minecraft runs faster for me on Linux than on Windows. The only thing that might not work is the official launcher, but that can be easily replaced (with the added benefit of improved functionality). I can recommend Prism Launcher, but really anything works.

About Bedrock, that’s a different story. Microsoft revamped the PC port of Bedrock, and now calls it “Minecraft for Windows”. It’s fully compiled, and it won’t run natively on Linux. However, I still believe it can be made to work with some Wine trickery.

My 8yo self had way better handwriting than I have now

Normally the cold is carried by the gas to your room. The less gas you have, the less efficient this transfer is, and the colder your outside unit will be.

It is surprising how much the landscape changed in just 5 years. All the right wing parties got a boost, but most importantly, the ultra right and christian right parties. All those are surely going to want to implement ChatControl and measures like that because “We need to protect our children!”

I’m also scared of all the new Q-Anon type parties that last time didn’t even exist and this time won a few seats. Ultra right conspiracy theorists that now have more seats than even the pirates.

Also look at the results from Gernany or Austria. AfD and Orban. Pro nazi and pro russian parties. We’re going back in time for a remake.

Not in a game, but I’ve sometimes tried to Ctrl+F some text on a pile of papers.

But it was supressed with tan-

“Individual found dead in his house after typing a comment on a social media. Allegedly he tried to kill himself with 2 shotgun rounds to the head”

Yeah, where did you think square roots come from?

While the Windows implementation works, it’s not the best one. Even WinRar will compress and uncompress faster, and 7Zip also beats WinRar. The compression ratios are also higher on 7Z, regardless of the file format (Rar, Zip, 7z).

Besides, 7Z can open other (arguably better) formats, like the aforementioned 7z or tar (tar, tar.gz, tar.7z, tar.zst, …)

Superior to 7Z?

I’m not especially informed about this, but wasn’t 7Z better than any other alternative? I’ve seen some benchmarks and, while WinRar beats every Windows implementation of Zip files, 7Z is always faster and compresses more. Also, the 7Z file format is way more advanced than Zip, Rar or Tar, and it allows many forms of post-quantum encryption.

Maybe there’s something I’m missing?

Afaik, they are unblockable. They are served from the same domain as the video, so if you block them you can’t see the video either.

Instead of blocking it at the domain level, you can install adblockers on almost any platform. I recommend uBlock for Firefox and ReVanced for Android. ReVanced is also supposed to work on Android TVs, iirc.

Sometimes others have already made a comment explaining your exact opinion of what you just downvoted, so instead of spamming more comments you can downvote one and upvote the other which explains your opinion.

The thing about parallel booting is it’s only faster in systems with lots of cores, and the overhead of the parallelized code is sometimes enough to negate the benefits in older processors.

My machine is a Core 2 Duo lappy, which allows me to run most modern programs cheaply. However, it’s slow (even though I don’t use DEs either), and laptops are the kinds of computers you boot multiple times a day. That’s why I care about boot times. And in this case, you can see that booting with a parallelized init system is slower than booting with a “regular” one.

Yeah, Systemd might be the new fad, but I still believe there are lots of things to learn from the simple init systems. After all, an init system should only focus on initializing a system, and it shouldn’t be as complex and complicated as Systemd is.

I might be just another old man yelling at clouds. But hey, that makes two of us now.
