Yeah, I thought that was a bit weird, too. Going as basic as explaining how to use ls and cat and how to run an executable, but not mentioning how to make an executable actually be executable.

I thought maybe it was just something wacky with my Termux install that made me have to chmod it all.

I also found it weird how the game didn’t manage HP and inventory for you. There must have been better ways for it to show you how to use session variables…

If that was true, then we wouldn’t see people bitching about the cold while I’m out in a t-shirt and jeans in 50°F weather. Seems fucking stupid to base a measurement system on something so subjective.

I found I had to chmod u+x the binaries, but they worked fine. You need to make sure you call them as ./filename (assuming you are in the same directory as the file)

IE:

chmod u+x treasure

./treasure

Forked it, renamed it, and changed nothing but the license on it.

What’s stopping it from becoming the defacto version putting the original into the point where it’s no longer worth maintaining, then Microsoft pulls it and sells it as a subscription service?

I don’t have anything too fancy. I use [theFuck(https://github.com/nvbn/thefuck) to handle typos, and I have some variables set to common directories that I use.

For me it’s been the availability of packages, and how up-to-date things are. The AUR is a gamechanger.

Getting my first computer up wasn’t too bad - really no more time to configure it than anything else, and you can just toss your packages to a a text file and your dotfikes to GitHub. Didn’t take long at all to get my second computer set up

Makes sense. I went from Suse to Mepis, stuck with it for a bit after they transitioned to Ubuntu before just going full Ubuntu, but I was getting frustrated by how long it took for their repos to catch up. I’ve been on Arch for a year or two now and it’s been fantastic.

I ran Ubuntu for like 15 years and was especially recently getting frustrated by how far behind the packages always were. I’m full in on Arch - everything about it has been a much better experience.

What’s with all the Mint hype? I’ve never used it and have little desire to go back to a Ubuntu-based distro. Just curious why everyone loves it so much.

I’ve never understood the fedora hype. The fact that it is adjacent to Redhat should be enough for people to want to stay away lol.

Gross. So they’ve swiss cheesed themselves for Microsoft too…

Trying to sign into work stuff will throw MCAS unless I’m in Edge or Chrome.

Edge has been Chromium based for a while now. Hell, a lot of the 365 stuff will only work in Edge or Chrome.

It’s wild how corporations are so openly cool with paying license fees to give everything away to Microsoft.

I would have told them to pound sand as soon as they tried to push the 365 and Azure shit if I was a business.

I’ve been using T-UI for probably 8+ years now. It hasn’t been updated in ages, but it really doesn’t need to be.

I’ve even built it out by creating a tui folder with empty files in it. Tasker has tasks set to execute when the files are modified, and T-UI has aliases set to touch specific files if commands are entered.

I ain’t no bitch

Makes somebody else get him body wash, whines about the scent of what was offered in lieu.

Dude’s a total bitch lol

All three of my bottom buttons were cooked on the update. Rebooting didn’t fix. I went into safe mode, buttons worked fine. Rebooted back to normal mode and they still work fine. No idea what that’s as about…

I’d suggest starting with that - boot into safe mode and see if it looks any better, then reboot back to normal mode and see if it sticks.

Yeah, I think the same - AI generated.

Shadow on the active window and maybe the selected icon could look nice. Likewise, on a button that is selected or hovered over.

I don’t even think they care about image. That was early-game for them. Now they’ve scooped so much data on people that they could probably close Facebook and still manage to track people based on metadata and shadow profiles.

I honestly don’t even think advertisers give a shit anymore. If people keep buying what they’re pushing, all they see is dollar signs. If anything, the whole “advertiser doesn’t like this” thing is just some sort of scapegoat.

Like, look at YouTube - you’re telling me that somehow the company pushing some products that nobody gives a fuck about is horribly offended because a guy in a video said “Shitfuck McPussyCock” three seconds in; but they have no issue with the hatred, misinformation spreading, and general stupidity of people like Tim Poole, Ben Shapiro, Crowder, and that other dipshit with the beard and glasses (whose name I have actually thankfully forgotten)?
