@AtariDump@lemmy.world is a nice guy (/girl/whatever) but about as sharp as a sack of wet mice when it comes to spotting users’ instances

Pronouns: any. You can’t get it wrong

People also look at it as an example of how identifiable people are right now.
However, I would say when talking about Linux specifically, there is a high chance that people talking about stuff being broken are people breaking stuff.
I’m sure you’re right. It used to be complicated to set up printers, bluetooth, audio, but even then once set up they were fine. Now all those and just about anything else you need to manage on the machine has an easy GUI
My wife’s computer runs Linux and she’s never had to use a terminal (she’s not a techie type)
For the UDP broadcast, you should be able to catch and change them with simple firewall rules, you’d catch packets with a destination address of the broadcast address and send them to a chain that rewrites the destination
So throw an error at runtime on that macro, most workbooks aren’t the target of a macro
Fine for me too
They said ~/
I don’t think there’s any protection for the current user’s home directory
That’s a bit much, perhaps though they should use a real mode OS
Yeah, there’s a Debian implementation of GNU/hurd. Debian recommend you run it in a VM
The Linux kernel (the part that gives Linux the name) is antithetical to Linux philosophy? I could understand it being contrary to GNU philosophy
We need a checklist like there is for Russian warships
Chronic flow in an engaging project. Start on a Saturday morning, feel like a coffee since you’re a bit sleepy, notice it’s Sunday
I had a team of contractors working on some code. They had learnt in their previous jobs to document everything in the work wiki (aside from the design documents which have their own repository)
And it was good they did, since the project was put on hold due to too much mismatch between backend and front, and all the contractors were fired (a day before Xmas) leaving the useless doco as the best reference for whoever needs to resurrect our code
I bought a house with the money saved from buying windows*
*This is a lie
I don’t understand how McDonald’s does so well in Australia, since our traditional takeaways do such good burgers and better chips (fries) a home cooked version true to the fish and chip place original
Though my partner prefers the burger “plain” which omits the bacon, egg, and pineapple
“republic” is opposite to “monarchy”. It is unrelated to democracy or authoritarianism. Nazi Germany was a republic. France is a republic.
Your republic is flawed by design. Your founders didn’t trust democracy so they weakened it, the country hasn’t managed to improve the democracy since.
Australia is also a Federation, but a monarchy not a republic. Australia is quite a bit more democratic than America
Luckily we don’t build clocks for n-dimensional time
My grandfather clock is correct* about once a week when I wind and correct it
*It must be correct as it’s very slightly fast (less so than can be fixed with a quarter turn off the pendulum screw) and I set it slightly in the past
The people with the most experience with nitrogen suffocation are scientists working with animals. It’s the current best ethical euthanasia method.
As in Margaret Thatcher was an Englishman?
