You can always try to shoot the Commisar or surrendet to Ukies. Russia isn’t a democracy

Can someone explain this command for me?

Today I just learned that systemctl --force --force reboot is a command. We had a computer we remotely connected to which got permission errors and bus errors when we tried to reboot it normally. For some reason the mentioned command did actually manage to shutdown the computer bit did not manage to reboot it correctly....

hitwright ,

As per systemctl(1) manual:

If --force is specified twice, the operation is immediately executed without terminating any processes or unmounting any file systems. This may result in data loss. Note that when --force is specified twice the halt operation is executed by systemctl itself, and the system manager is not contacted. This means the command should succeed even when the system manager has crashed.

Great build for a gaming PC. For a server it looks odd. Usually when building a server, your main concern is reliability. Everything goes in pairs. Two CPUs, Two PSUs… It gets tedious fast. Often weaker but much more energy efficient parts are prefered, since unused CPU and RAM is considered wasted.

It would be much more helpful if you have a usecase you’re building it for (since now I really can’t comment too much on the build). If your primary concern is to try to have a home server, I’d say go for it. You can always upgrade/downgrade down the line.

Wasn’t there a licensing issue with jpeg xl for using Microsoft’s some sort of algo?

Then it’s absolutely soul-crushing to see Google abuse it’s market dominance like that…

Normal, a child shouldn’t be forced to kiss elders.

hitwright ,

It’s pretty regular thing to beat your father if he abused you before. (Usually happens when the child is around 16). Then the child is kicked out of home. Many such stories here in Lithuania.

hitwright ,

Both abuse cases are illegal. Throwing away from home is legal once the child is 18. Or 22 if the child is attending higher education (trade school or university)

Left is a flower, right is a praying mantis if I understand it correctly

Guix - It’s basically an abstraction over software compilation and distribution. It uses guile lisp language as glue to bind it all together. (Full programming language to configure with)

The beauty arises if you want to get a minimal os running with a single application and package it either as a full iso or a docker container you can. Or if you need to get an OS to run as your router.

It’s also highly encourages free software to the point, that proprietary software actually feels like huge downgrade to include. (Compilation from source is always available)

I’ve been using this only for 11 months. I’ve barely scratched the surface on what is possible. So I’m pretty sure I’m not making it justice on what a gem it is. For example: Only recently I started to use programs in an immutable way.

hitwright ,

Since there are not many developers there are some build systems that are more prioritized than others. If you come from emacs side of things, it’s great. Rust is around 4 versions older. And the single developer recently burned out. The package manager is a lot like nixos, so every package requires work to introduce to the system.

hitwright ,

Thanks for the info, although versioning afaik not the thing that keeps it behind. There are tools to import the necessary packages with ‘guix import crate’. It automatically selects the necessary packages.

Difficulties arise when Cargo.toml for example uses git as source. Then you have to pull and write specifications for not a standard package. The build system is isolated and cannot download anything off the internet.

hitwright ,

Does nix require the exact commit be written out for the package, or does it generate a hash during the build taking the newest git commit?

hitwright ,

What are the offensive actions EU is taking on the global stage?

It’s probably the same chain of command that issues airsoft body armor to frontline infantry.

We have a saying in our country. “Be 100 gramų ruso nesuprasi” which roughly translates to “Without 100 g (vodka) you won’t understand a russian”

Hur durr… You have different interests… Therefore degenerate…

Do you even realize how incredibly stupid the whole concept of tribalism is?

hitwright ,

That’s where you’re wrong kiddo. The downvotes are because you are jumping to conclusion about lolis and other sexualization.

The fascination with child personas for most anime fans are just that. It’s cute. The same ways dogs are cute, and cats are cute. I really doubt they have a fetish on children, although there are some that do. I really don’t think it’s right to mash them all together.

hitwright ,

Hobby is anime which includes much more than “watching little girls”. With phrasing like yours it seems that you push all people like that like some creeps that just look at children.

The idea that I’m trying to convey, is that personification of a technology with art into something cute, cool or whatever doesn’t automatically mean sexual deviation or anything along the lines.

Also stereotyping is not exactly something you should defend with “general society”

The primary reason is Russian Imperialistic dream of restoring the Soviet Union.

Reasoning that a country can invade another country just because it feels insecure is insane. Not to mention that the border would become even closer, because now Russia would be expandee.

The baltic states are already close AF to primary population centers to have serios damage. Not to mention that Finland is also now NATO. Why didn’t Russia invade them also?

It’s surprising how many people are siding with the drug dealer. The dude doesn’t even pay taxes…

Has Anyone Ever Pulled Off Federated Inventory?

I’ve been thinking lately about the concept of the fediverse and repurposing it toward the goal of creating a free and open, decentralized, federated network of vendors that run instances or groups of vendors that run one instance together. These instances would broadcast inventory updates to each node that they federate with....

hitwright ,

I have had the exact same idea, ever since I found out about fediverse. It’s just difficult to find ways to trust of the network. Never managed to think of a way for easy self-moderation. Money does bring an insane perversion to try and game the system.

I’m guessing the federation part if done correctly with moderation might bring more trust to the network. Since this is an idea about physical commerce, I’m guessing that having a “store” gps location could be useful for partitioning the network node search priority. Highest chance that you would like to buy from your neighbour and not from across the continent first. Otherwise with the amount of items that will be scanned is nightmare-ish.

Somewhere in the comments there is a mention about dropping crypto as a source of trust. If the store needs trust of a user, it doesn’t sound unreasonable to have your national identity there.

Other source of trust and identity, could be friends. It’s easy to trust direct friends and friend of friend. Knowing that it most likely will have up to 5 jumps, that could be a way to “check” if you are trusted on the network. That does bring the bootstrapping problem

Hope my ramblings will be somewhat useful.

Who here uses a less popular Linux distribution? What made you choose it?

Hey fellow Linux enthusiasts! I’m curious to know if any of you use a less popular, obscure or exotic Linux distribution. What motivated you to choose that distribution over the more mainstream ones? I’d love to hear about your experiences and any unique features or benefits that drew you to your chosen distribution.

hitwright ,

Always great to see a fellow Guix user!

hitwright ,

Yeah, you’re missing the part that it’s proprietary, and you have no real way of knowing what’s running on your system. It could be mining bitcoin at night or forcing ads on you.

It’s interesting to see how differently people see the war by the information bubbles they are in. (Looking at the upvotes)

Edit: fixed a typo

Gecko was pretty shit performance wise until Firefox quantum in 2017. Back then even Apple decided it’s better to use webkit for it’s browser.

It’s difficult to say exact reasons for each browser. But for Chrome enjoying the dominant position before that, it was better to jump on Chromium as base just for better compatibility with most websites.

Tooling followed soon after

Reddit has a karma sum which is used to deny access from posting altogether. Here if you say something unpopular, you don’t get the dopamine hit from upvotes, but you’re also not silenced, unless the mod explicitly bans you.

Feudal Tactics found on f-droid. Extremely simple yet very fun, so many hours spent just conquering islands x3

Don’t worry, kicking subhuman Russians has already became a pass time activity in most post-soviet countries.

Also Turkey should easily uphold the grain deal, since Russian ships are even afraid to leave the ports

hitwright ,

Something around 80 percent of russians actually support Russian imperialistic goals. You can’t exactly pity them at this point. The protests were almost non existant in Russia.

Even if Putin drops down tommorow, it’s likely that the whole Russia expansion desire remains. Shit even Navalny doesn’t want to drop occupied Georgia.

hitwright ,

Although thats quite some mental gymnastics there, mate. Hurr durr, we don’t like what EU is doing by no longer buying from us, so we will force egypt to starve.

Grow up

hitwright ,

These stats are more or less what is reported in my country. Can’t fact check everything, since it’s more or less the first time it got some shade. Most pro-russian populus here also support Putin and find Ukrainians as nazis, so this didn’t seem far fetched.

Seeing different level of protests in Russia (against the war) and in Belarus (against Lukashenko) does show that participation was/is quite little. Even before the war, there were larger protests after Navalny.

There were a few Russians I can deeply respect and can call good russians, but they are the minority sadly. For example Ruslan Zizin.

hitwright ,

I’m not saying or suggesting moral failing. Just saying that most of them are indoctrinated to a fault. Russians that ran from mobilization is protesting in a way, although a lot still have the same problem of “Russia big, Russia Strong”.

The real problem is that there are desires for neo-colonialism, and imperialism in almost every Russian. They grew up with that. It’s all they know. They can’t be trusted. They are incompatible with big chunk of EU.

Why YSK: Did you know that throughout history, there have been cases where animals were actually charged with criminal acts? It’s pretty surprising, right? These stories give us a unique glimpse into how societies have dealt with the actions of animals and how the legal system has responded. By learning about these cases, we...

    KWH per dollar during whole lifetime, solar wins, even when oil is subsidized (for national security reasons)

    There are problems with solar that it is not a steady supply of energy, yet I would argue that it is better that way. People should sleep during the night, not work.
