atomicorange , to til in TIL in 1818, an Englishman accused of murder demanded a trial by combat. Surprisingly, the law that allowed for trial by combat was still valid, and the man was acquitted when his accuser declined the

Reading the article, it looks like the accused was originally acquitted in a jury trial, but the victim’s brother appealed and so they were going to try him again. At that point he asked for the trial by combat. I’m glad they just dropped it, sounds like the case was pretty flimsy.

So you’re saying my father was wrong; crying will solve something?

Yes. And your father is an asshole.

Awkwardly_Frank ,

What a terrible thing to say about someone’s father on the basis of one offhand remark.

Spreading toxic masculinity makes you an asshole.

greywolf0x1 , to linux in What file systems are you using on your devices and why?

dual boot NixOS and FreeBSD on a single drive, ext4 on Nix and ZFS on FreeBSD. each partition has its own boot, swap and root, all encrypted

btw, OP wrote that FAT32 is limited, isn’t it the default fs for the boot partition? can other fs like ext2/3 be used?

CatLikeLemming , to linux in What file systems are you using on your devices and why?
@CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Btrfs because it sounded cool when I first read about it and worked fine so far :3

Psyhackological OP ,
@Psyhackological@lemmy.ml avatar

Yeah it sounds “better” FS. Do you use snapshots?

CatLikeLemming ,
@CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Yep, got Timeshift hooked up to make a snapshot each time I update my system and I can boot into them via GRUB. Haven’t needed that so far, thankfully, but it’s there just in case.

tired_n_bored , to linux in What file systems are you using on your devices and why?
  • Ext4 main computer
  • NTFS for hard drives and stuff that need to be shared with other people using Windows
  • BTRFS for the NAS
Psyhackological OP ,
@Psyhackological@lemmy.ml avatar

Interesting choice for NAS, why not the others that seem like better alternatives?

tired_n_bored ,

Well, as far as I know, BTRFS and ZFS are the recommended file systems for NAS’s. They have self-healing capabilities so I can be slightly more sure that my data does not get corrupted over time.

Psyhackological OP ,
@Psyhackological@lemmy.ml avatar

Is self-healing process automated or you need to somehow enable it so it happens from time to time?

tired_n_bored ,

You have to run a so-called scrub command that checks for errors and tries to repair them. You can automate to run it every month or so

Psyhackological OP ,
@Psyhackological@lemmy.ml avatar

In a cronjob or something alike?

tired_n_bored ,

Yup

awesome_lowlander , to til in TIL there are three types of tears: basal, reflex, and psychic. Psychic tears, produced when we're sad, contain leucine enkephalin, a natural painkiller that helps us feel better.

Why do we need to excrete the tears before reabsorbing them, instead of just producing and consuming them internally?

SparrowRanjitScaur ,

Maybe as a social signal for other humans.

Im using Summit for Lemmy (I’m also the dev). It allows you to take “advanced” screenshots within the app, choosing which comments to include and more.

Guess old reddit habits die hard. Love to see someone get down votes for not understanding a joke

Don_Dickle OP ,

Maybe I may be used to reddit and a little sore because I got banned for being a bot for posting to much. But and hope you are with me that I am not a bot or spamming or whatever.

all-knight-party ,
@all-knight-party@kbin.run avatar

Maybe you don't get the title perfect every time, but you provide a lot of content that's the sort of stuff I went to reddit for, and I appreciate you!

Don_Dickle OP ,

Don’t know if your being sarcastic or what but as a major wikiphile I do my best to educate people hopefully the Mods can see it and not ban me for being overly active or call me spamming or whatever. And I appreciate your input. …No sarcasm.

Contingencyfork ,

I wouldn’t worry too much about it whatever the case. Between interpreting a comment as one full of positivity VS one that is potentially sarcastic, I would interpret it as a positive comment 100% of the time. I mean, why not? Thanks for sharing!

Decoy321 ,

Hi there, mod here. I want to acknowledge that you appear to not be a spam bot, just some decent dude who wanted to make some posts.

I appreciate you wanting to contribute. Would you do me a small favor and slow it down a bit? You’re getting a lot of reports. I recommend quality over quantity. Take the time to double check your titles. Keep it to like single digits a day for a bit. Avoid reposting topics. Etc.

That’ll all go a long way, rest assured.

Don_Dickle OP ,

alright will do.

Lemmy is more trigger-happy with downvotes in my experience. And way worse at getting jokes and understanding sarcasm. It’s pretty interesting actually.

So you have a dual boot or Windows machines I’m guessing for any of these

  1. Microsoft Office
  2. Gaming
  3. Adobe

I don’t dual boot, I just have some other Windows machines that I use rarely for Windows-only software that require an external connection, like Odin for Samsung devices.
