Looks like someone on github even created a script to automatically install and configure grub-btrfs and snapper on Fedora.

My experience with VR has been mixed. When I first fully switched to Linux I was using a Valve Index and the non-flatpak version of Steam and it just worked the same as it did under Windows (except for an issue where on boot the headset would be recognized as the primary display always, fixed by just not plugging in DP from the Index until after logon).

More recently I ordered a BigScreen Beyond 2, and while waiting for that to ship I switched to the flatpak version of Steam. Steam no longer sees that the headset is even connected. Neither the BSB2 or the index work. Fedora, however sees the device just fine.

Some cursory reading indicates there’s an issue with the Steam Flatpak’s handling of USB device permissions, but I haven’t had a chance to thoroughly dig into it.

All of this is on Fedora KDE. I plan on reinstalling everything when Fedora 43 releases, since I’ve got some issues with my drive partition layout that I find annoying, so I’ll try to get VR working again then.

Nyarch, of course.

That’s a BSD distro

Isn’t the list of shells that are “not fully POSIX compliant” basically every shell in modern use aside from sh?

I’ve been using linux off and on for almost 20 years, though only did a full transition to linux for everything about two years ago. I use debian for the servers in my homelab and Fedora on all my other computers.

Something tells me this chart is based on an external assessment of competence/confidence not a self-assessment, because according to the chart I should be a guru, but in actuality I know nothing.

Plenty of other dictators were way more effective mass murderers. I’d argue Hitler was middling at best.

A couple of years ago I lived in a house with a few friends that we rented from one of their parents. They had a somewhat extensive homeassistant setup. We set up a couple of fun automations.

-Enter 8675309 on a keypad by the door - Play the song at full volume

-Enter 911 - Play police sirens at gradually increasing volume

-Enter 420 - Play that one sample of Snoop Dogg saying “smoke weed every day.”

-Leave the fridge or freezer door open for more than five minutes, start playing Dare to be Stupid by Weird Al at full volume and set all of the lights to red.

If they’re considering optical media, typical BD-R, while viable, may not be be the best choice. BD-R M-Discs would probably be a better choice for backups. Especially if they’re planning on needing access to the data over a period of decades, which would be potentially useful for familiy photos/videos and critical documents.

They are more expensive, as is the drive needed for them, but not by enough to be out of reach or even unreasonable given the additional durability of the discs.

At least according to the USDA pork is a red meat. Presumably long pig is the same.

However, that particular red meat is ethically sourced and environmentally friendly to consume. The lack of sustainability is, in this case, desirable.

Please don’t stick a thumbdrive into my penis.

You’re free to say whatever you want. Platforms are also free to not rebroadcast your speech. Both statements can be true.

I’ll learn the theremin for this effort

It will run Doom. Doesn’t matter what “it” is, someone will make it run Doom.

I’ve tried submitting recategorization requests through the links provided by my workplace on the block pages. The requests have been denied.

If I’m remembering right, it’s a Symantec web filtering solution that we use and they’ve decided that my domain is in the “personal blog” category. Which is a blocked category. Jeff Geerling’s website actually falls under the same category, which also kind of sucks, because I like reading some of the stuff he puts out.

pretty much the only reason I still use Plex is because I like to be able to watch stuff during downtime at work and plex.tv isn’t blocked on the work network while my private domain is.

And no, using a hotspot off my phone on a personal computer isn’t an option, both because the security requirements of my job site prevent us from using personal devices in the main area where I work and because the building itself is a massive concrete structure that blocks most cell signals.

It’s saying that some new allegations surrounding libogc, a low level library used extensively in Wii and Gamecube homebrew, call the ethics and possibly the legality of any project using the library into question.

The headline itself could be a little more clear, but it makes sense after reading the article.

Sure, you could look at it that way, but an equally valid way to look at it would be based on human life spans.

Average human life expectancy is 72 years. Which is, conveniently very close to the age of the oldest video game (an implementation of tic-tac-toe from 1950).

Would you call a 14 year old human old? At that point they’d be ~20% of they way through their life.
