Just do sysrq+s, sysrq+c (triggers panic) and flip the power switch for instant power off.

I lazily type part of the thing I want like “sys” and then ctrl+⬆️/⬇️ and sudo systemctl start libvirtd etc. appear like magic.

Every technology invented is a dual edge sword. Other edge propulses deluge of misinformation, llm hallucinations, brain washing of the masses, and exploit exploit for profit. The better side advances progress in science, well being, availbility of useful knowledge. Like the nuclerbomb, LLM “ai” is currenty in its infancy and is used as a weapon, there is a literal race to who makes the “biggest best” fkn “AI” to dominate the world. Eventually, the over optimistic buble bursts and reality of the flaws and risks will kick in. (Hopefully…)

BioShock infinite was ok experince on linux, I have completed it twice. (The native binary runs via its own internal translation scheme, so I suggest running via dxvk/proton instead for more speed.) I would say however that it’ll be a lot more hollow and straight forward “pipe run” than its predecessors. I own bioshock 2, but it’s dead, obsolete M$hit only version that i haven’t played since it eated my save files three times.

It has been an goat-tier supported gpu on linux. Still plays doom (2016) era games at nearly max settings. Since last year i have startted calling it a potato that never rots.

Can I have some default juice? I think I glitched the matrix (again) today.

hardmode: I did a fresh install on a HDD that is on verge of being dead. Every-time this thing boots it’s a miracle. Somehow dd blanking the disk, plenty of smartctl offline disk surface scans and finally putting btrfs with data in DUP profile resurrected the HDD. I have run btrfs scrub daily or else the os install may bitrot and well… expire. :D

Edit: Todays catch, I was too late and now I have fix 3 files:

Error summary:    read=112
  Corrected:      109
  Uncorrectable:  3
  Unverified:     0

Two new hobbies to keep me in the reality^tm.

So this is it. The enshittification has reached slowlorris levels.

Oh, this is a good one.

No mention of KDevelop? ;__;

I like it because it is the pretty much only FOSS graphical IDE where the edit-compile-debug cycle works. I’m been using it for last 10y for C/C++/Python, and it recently gained LSP support. (ported from Kate)

The \EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI is the only file the UEFI standard says it is required automatically lookup from an EFI system partition. There can many EFI partitions but the UEFI is only required to find a single file per such a partition.

efibootmgr -u can show all bios auto created boot entries (don’t touch those, the bios can/will reset them at whim) and the manually created entries that don’t launch a BOOTX64.EFI named file.

I intended this an sarcastic example; I think it’s worse than putting the main outside of the branch because of the extra indent-level. It does have an upside that the main() doesn’t exist if you try import this as an module.

Btw, ld.so is a symlink to ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 at least on my system. It is an statically linked executable. The ld.so is, in simpler words, an interpreter for the ELF format and you can run it:

ld.so --help

Entry point address: 0x1d780

Which seems to be contained in the only executable section segment of ld.so

LOAD 0x0000000000001000 0x0000000000001000 0x0000000000001000
     0x0000000000028bb5 0x0000000000028bb5  R E    0x1000

Edit: My understanding of this quite shallow; the above is a segment that in this case contains the entirety of the .text section.

I would put my code in a def main(), so that the local names don’t escape into the module scope:

if __name__ == '__main__':
    def main():
        print('/s')
    main()

(I didn’t see this one yet here.)

I do this, and I have a “graveyard log” file where I paste my discarded posts and replies.

Holy hell, thats rough. :D

True Arch: you write the image to the usb stick yourself, boot it on bare hardware, and don’t use archinstall. This is the minimum requirement BTW. If you use archinstall you can only use “btw” in lowercase. /s

Do you know about ortho/para-H₂O? It only gets weirder.

This might just push my fear of targeted ads enough to give in to my idea of a nearly soundproof box for my phone when I’m not using it. :(
