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 Unless you are on a way out of date system, you need to add the --no-preserce-root flag as well.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.

For one tracker anyway…

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.

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

We had these old ass everex (I think that was the brand) 386’s that had an one line 8 character display on the front that would display what drive was being accessed and what sector/track it was on. It was pretty useless, until we found the memory address that held the buffer (80h if I remember correctly. We were dumb so we wrote a TSR in turbo pascal that are random times would scroll something like “this computer is about to blow up in 5…4…3…2…1…BOOM!”.

I don’t think anyone really cared as it was the secondary computer lab used by the programming club mainly, but we thought we were really bad ass.

Garuda linux has been my goto on my personal computer and laptop for about 3 years now, basically since it was released on my work machine i use windows unfortunatly.

on my two little media servers, i run arch inside proxmox continers.

Nothing is wrong if that is your preferred method. Period end of story.

the creator of another app, realy for reddit, said the ban goes in to full effect on the 5th, after the weekend and the 4th of july holiday.

As messed up as this is, it is 100% the way parole works almost everywhere. Parole officers are not required to investigate or prove their claims.
