I vote necromancer.

I’ll have to read children of time next tho as I haven’t read it yet. Currently reading through anathem.

Samsung excavator = Volvo excavator. Samsung is just relabeling the Volvos.

Star control 2 was the absolute best imo

If you eat enough you will eventually develop gold plated poo 4-12 hours later, and I think that is something!

I met my future wife in irc in 1994. In 1996 she moved from where she was to my state, and then in 2000 we got married, and have been ever since. The Internet was way different back then. I tell that to anyone using one of the current/past crop of dating apps.

You can’t do this on Linux anymore either. Unless you are on a way out of date system, you need to add the --no-preserce-root flag as well. And I think it still prompts you to make sure it is really want you want to do.

I mean, there is nothing stopping you from installing whatever version of the library that is required in tandem with the latest version. You could even put it somewhere other then a standard library location and start executing your binary with

LD=/my/old/library ./myoodbinary

and have it dynamically loaded at runtime.

The only time this doesn’t work is when it is something in the kernel that breaks the binary… But you can run an older kernel that has back ported fixed.

I get where you are coming from with proprietary binarys that the devs have abandon. But to me that makes all the more reason not to run that software in the first place.

Edit: also the kobo desktop Windows app runs under wine I think…

Define old binary. The a.out and elf format haven’t changed in a very long time. If you mean something from an old system with unmet dependencies, it will run, but it will crash and warn you that some library isn’t found. It will still run up until that point tho.

Not music persay but I have been listening to a lot of the “salute the sample” segments by ll cool j on YouTube. Its a pretty cool dive into the samples that drive hip-hop.

One of my friends recently got scammed online. He should have known better. But when he got the ticket and the number on it was 123 456 789 10 11 12, I had to tell him that was the same as the combination on my luggage

One of the best I have ever played which falls into adventure, puzzle, RPG, strategy , and open world is probably star control 2, the urquan masters. It has an amazingly well crafted story, the music is great, and a bunch of different aspects to the game play. This still is one of my favorite games of all time

Afaik your not stuck with bash. You can use the shebang to decide on your script interpreter. Bash is just ubiquitous… But you can #!/use/bin/python3 if you want

Garuda is beautiful. It is arch based using the original arch repos. It uses btrfs with automated snapshots which is pretty handy. It runs awesome on my two laptops.

First log out of lemmy.world. it’s called remove account…kind of scary but it won’t hurt. Turn close liftoff and go to system settings -> apps. Find liftoff and select storage and cache. In that menu select clear cache. Close the settings menu and go back into liftoff. Choose to add your account again and everything should be fixed… Or at least that fixed it for me.

Hyprland is a tiling compositor for wayland, so you use hotkeys to manage windows. It is akin to i3wm (or bspwm or awesomewm, etc) but for Wayland instead of xwindows. https://hyprland.org/

The end of the world seems to be coming sooner and sooner ad that means I won’t have to work for 30 more years when I retire.

It’s very nice looking. You should look at Garuda tho, it’s default kde theme is very similar imo

I made this tonight and it was fantastic!
