hopefull_cottonball , to linux in I managed to get neofetch running on the library pc

1.so your library PCs run ubuntu? that’s cool, my uni uses win11.

2.did you mount the USB stick and then add the directory with neofetch in it to path? Or did you do something else?

Sparky OP ,

All government owned libraries in Oslo Norway use Ubuntu. I was originally trying to install hyfetch as python was installed. Pip was not, so I tried running the setup script from the source code but it failed as it relies on some pip dependencies. I did find the neofetch script in the source code, and I ran it straight from the usb drive. I did not set the usb directory with neofetch to path as I don’t want to configure things that might break the pc for other people.

Huh, I had no idea. It’s so cool that Norwegian libraries do that

Bomberman Hero is pretty special to me. Also, I don’t think Jet Force Gemini gets enough love.

fmstrat , to science_memes in this one goes out to the urban planning nerds

While we’re at it, cover parking lots in solar panels.

NeatNit ,

From what I’ve heard (and I DO NOT understand it, at all) this is cost prohibitive and impractical.

fmstrat ,

Not sure how this would be the case, would love to see a reference here.

VinnyDaCat , (edited )

It’s like a lot of things in life. It depends and it can be complicated.

Upfront costs for infrastructure besides the panels themselves is expensive and in places where electricity is already cheap companies won’t bother.

You also have to conduct tests to ensure that the grid and transformers can handle more power, and if they can’t then you have more infrastructure that needs upgrades.

I’m not saying we shouldn’t do this. We really need to in the long run but it isn’t something we can simply snap our fingers and do instantly.

Also, a lot of the unprofitability comes from VC culture in my opinion. The individuals at the top of businesses often times won’t stick around with the business long enough to start see the savings from solar energy.

mub , to asklemmy in What would happen if you spray a bucket with hydrophobic spray and put water in it?

It’ll stay empty of course. If make a big enough bucket to stand in and you could go deep sea diving without an airtank.

lupec , to selfhosted in [Request] Automatic backups when PC comes online

Since space is a major concern, maybe have a look at borg and possibly something like borgmatic on top for easier configuration. Borg does deduplicated backups, so you could do even hourly ones if you wanted without too much extra space depending on how many you want to keep. You’d need to run a borg server wherever you want to store your backups so it’s not a simple rsync over ssh situation but that’s the price you pay for the extra niceties.

I havet gotten around to buying programmer socks :(

MudMan , to patientgamers in What have you been playing this week?

They put Reatroachievements on Gamecube games so apparently I'm now balls deep into OG Animal Crossing. Don't even know how it happened, but Tom Nook is saying my kneecaps are at risk if I don't come up with 150K bells by the end of the month.

PdeT ,

Man, that Nook is teaching everybody hard truths about capitalism.

iheartneopets ,

Holy shit, by bringing this site to my attention I think you may have ruined my life, but fuck it. I’m going in.

MudMan ,

It is really cool. I don't always love the achievement design some of the volunteer coders land on, but it's still a wonderful way to revitalize old games. And the recently added completion tracking stats, where you don't just get an award for 100% every achievement, but also for beating the main campaign, is incredibly fun and useful to track which games you've playted through. Sony and Microsoft should steal that immediately.

Cagi , to nostupidquestions in US regional accents: Saul Goodman and Michael Scott

Their accents are different. Bob has a Midwest touch to his speech, as is standard for Illinois kids like him, Steve speaks classic Western New England, typical of his Massachusetts upbringing, which is almost exactly the same as American Standard.

But these two came up in the New York comedy world around the same time. They weren’t close but had many mutual colleagues. It might be more about a similar performance style than a regional accent you’re noticing.

themeatbridge ,

Bob as the Philly Michael Scott was a trip.

Rhynoplaz , to nostupidquestions in US regional accents: Saul Goodman and Michael Scott

Steve is from Massachusetts, and Bob is from Illinois.

I’m curious if Steve used to sound more New England, and possibly trained himself to speak in a more “neutral” Midwestern accent.

Although, they are the same age, so maybe it was a trend they picked up in the 70s?

Cagi , (edited )

The Western New England accent is very different from your classic Foggettaboudit east coast accent. Unless you’re an academic linguistics researchers, it’s basically the same as American standard. He was luckily born into his accent.

Rhynoplaz ,

How West is Western New England? He was born and raised just outside of Boston. That’s usually a pretty distinct accent, and not a foggetabouit accent. I see he went to school in Ohio. I think it’s more likely he lost it there, but I’m just a random guy. I just throw theories out.

Only post is a gay couple. I feel like they already don’t understand the rules.

Elevator7009 ,

A community dedicated to mostly humorous instances of queer erasure.

Abides by that specific community's rules. However, I feel "They Were Roommates" would work better for the name of a community for general humorous instances of queer erasure, as "Sappho and Her Friend" makes me expect it's either lesbian-only or woman-only.

flamingos OP ,
@flamingos@feddit.uk avatar

The original reddit sub wasn’t wlw specific either, but I can change the display name to “They Were Roommates” if people want.

Elevator7009 ,

I also figured it might have been something like that but I didn't follow the Reddit sub. (Also, it is your community, you can do what you want, but we don't have to be a 1:1 copy of them if we do not want to be!)

JackbyDev ,

Feels like you didn’t read the rules then.

JackbyDev ,

Works for me on Voyager.

Neofetch is written in bash, you should be able to source it without installing it, doesnt even need to be executable
