lemmy is not even a blip on anyone’s radar and huge majority of its users still primarily use reddit and twitter.

i love this and i’m stealing it. lol

i use cookie autodelete and the containers for the websites i that i know are harvesting/selling my data.

it works well for me so it makes me wonder how it’s tedious or buggy for you,

I suspect that this is the story for most Linux users; windows failing at a critical need

windows doesn’t show linux partitions correctly.

did you have it setup to ask you which operating system you wanted to boot and do you still see it?

in 2002 when my windows me computer start looping on the blue screen of death, with all of my college papers/essays/tests/assignments trapped in it.

the recovery media refused to work because i had upgraded the computer several times and i couldn’t afford the $180 windows xp cd. so i bought a linux magazine for $5 that included a copy of mandrake linux installation media and used paper printouts from my college’s computer labs to help me rescue my work from the computer.

it reached an absurd level in austin texas well before trump became a thing; they show up to gay bars to entrap men into breaking the law with the intention of citing enough legal violations to justify shutting down the bar permanently. it’s so bad that the bars have responded by hiring off duty police because they have a chance of recognizing officers in plainclothes.

vim should make yaml editing easier and you’re familiarity with vi should help a lot.

are you using a graphical editor to edit the file?

will nano or vim work?

xmodmap was meant to work with x11 so it shouldn’t be a surprise that it doesn’t work very well w wayland.

instead, you’ll want to use a combination of libinput and evdev along w gnome/kde tools or input-remapper/wlr-inputremapper if you’re not using either.

i’ve seen 2 such examples: one on solar and another using piezoelectrics along with the wind

i used to be one of those maintainers. it was my job to build server and container images so i had to spend a lot of time with the company’s internal distro maintainers and it always blew me away how much work they had to do.

HEAVY emphasis on the words “labor of love” … should be getting paid for this and i know for a fact that people who do this professionally make around $200k a year for doing it becuase i worked with them for up until a couple weeks ago at old-silicon.

i’ve always been in awe of people who do this; it goes well beyond linux from scratch and they’ll never get rewarded for doing it… it’s purely a labor of love.

i’ve never heard of this guy; do you know where i can find his work?

– thus making the escape so much better when it happens. lol

only some people are dicks; the question is whether or not we give them power over us to push their dickish ways unto us like we do today under capitalism.

you’re conflating slavery with the slave trade and nations with people.

both are reprehensible, but the barbarity of the slave trade that americans engaged in is on an entirely genocidal & morally bankrupt level than the slavery practiced by some native americans and its practice was relagated individual members of native americans; not entire nations.

My job requires me to work w KVM/QEMU utilities on x86 architecture and utm is dog slow since I have an m2 MacBook.

Instead I use ssh into X86 servers; hence the keyboard mapping woes

which one(s) haven’t been and why weren’t they?
