B was based on BCPL, which I assume is where the name came from.
But the actual A language would be APL, which stands for A Programming Language. It’s a few years older than B and was pretty popular, so it could’ve influenced the name.
Gotta admire the wherewithal of continuing down the alphabet rather than just “Another Programming Language”, through “Yet Another Programming Language” to “Dude, Where’s My Programming Language”.
The pi 3B+ is not powerful enough for all that. I would get a used minipc as even a old one will run circles around the old Broadcom CPU.
Podman is similar to docker except for the fact that it is daemonless and rootless by default. To expose things on lower ports you will need to battle permissions. Also podman has pods like kubernetes.
One could do some photogrammetry and then analyze the 3d mesh. It only requires taking multiple photos from different angles. Might even be able to get something going from online photos, provided you match the time of day for the entire set…
Not possible to keep seeding changed data. Changing the file contents changes the file hash / torrent hash. There is no way to keep seeding a torrent that expects different file data.
Not sure if it’s worth it but if you really wanted to keep seeding the original data then you’d need to keep a “torrent” copy of that data for qBittorrent and your own copy of the files elsewhere that you can tag and change as much as you like.
and renaming fucks the files up.
Similar solution to above, you could keep separate folders if you wanted.
But technically as long as you never change the file data (e.g. no metadata tagging) then you could keep two separate folders and have the data hardlinked between them. That way you can rename one version of them as much as you like while keeping the original filenames in the other folder.
e.g. simple example
c:\qbittorrent\torrentdata\musicstuff <-- all files/subfolders hardlinked --> c:\mymusic\blahblah
Alternatively you could do what the other commenter mentioned & rename the files within qBittorrent itself. Personally I prefer the hardlink method since that keeps the torrent client with the same expected file names it looks for, makes it easier to do things like re-install / re-seed the torrent client, switch torrent clients, etc.
Yeah, that’s what I was expecting unfortunately… The problem isn’t the filenames, the problem is that the downloaded files lack any real metadata, so my media libraries ignore the files…I’m also talking about terabytes of files that I can’t afford to duplicate right now. Maybe I’ll make my own public torrents?
Have you tried Lidarr? This might help with finding files that are appropriately tagged versus those that aren’t. At the very least, you might consider duplicating the more hard to find stuff and ignore things like Taylor Swift and the like.
Ive been here. U can use a bootable usb to boot. Then use switch root to change to ur actual filesystem (I’m glossing over a lot of complications here ask chatgpt) and update from here or just copy over the kernal.
Why the fuck are you asking an LLM to help you fix your Linux install – especially a tiny one that gets facts wrong as often as Dolphin does – when archwiki is right there?
Dolphin is a dataset to fine tune models in an attempt to revert much of the alignment. The base model is mixtral 8x22b. Its way faster as it gives me the exact commands I need.
I’ve been using exclusively Linux since high school, and now I’m doing a PhD in math. It’s always been pretty smooth. I used to have a separate Windows rig for gaming, but don’t really need it anymore, now that Proton works very well with most games. (I don’t really play AAA games, so that helps.)
Coming to the point, for academic stuff, I mostly needed to use a PDF reader (Zathura and qPdfView), LaTeX, and some computation and graphing software (mostly SageMath). I sometimes needed to use DOCX files, but LibreOffice works well for that. Most other software I need from time to time are usually Linux native.
Also, many universities provide access to O365. I’ve used it in some rare cases where I needed to provide input in some collaborative document. But in most cases, I was able to convince my friends/colleagues to use Google Docs instead.
Unless you do CAD, or some creative work, Linux should be perfect for your usecase.
I’m surprised you use Google. I would assume people on Linux are avoiding big tech as much as possible. I personally don’t use a Google account so I just use the o365 school account to edit collab documents
The most important thing to do is backup your data to an external drive. Unless you are planning on dual booting (much more complicated) you will be wiping out the entire drive that has windows on it when you install Linux.
This guide goes through the whole installation process.
I would argue the point that installing in dual boot is any more complicated than a clean install, especially given the state of modern Linux installers
Maybe not that much more complicated, but it does give a less experienced user a lot more opportunities to make a mistake that could result in data loss or just a computer that suddenly decides not to boot Linux anymore since a Windows update broke grub.
