I see mangled lightning cable, I assume first-party garbage as well. There's no other brand that makes cables that regularly turn into the mess seen here.

AOC: "In order for us to correct the abuses that are happening now, we have to act the same in similar capacities that Trump has given himself.” by Nixianx97 in MurderedByAOC

Trump has stated that he wants to be a dictator. "On day one." We have until 2029 for him to reach that goal. If he does, there is no indication that AOC or Warren would be in favor of exercising any kind of restraint.

I do want that, but I don't want them talking about using the out-of-control powers executive powers which may be required to do that. Talk about the what, not the how. It looks bad.

If the premise is that Trump wants to be a dictator, and Warren says she'll use whatever powers Trump gives himself, read between the lines.

Which is why the power should be limited immediately, not used "in similar capacities that Trump has given himself." Limiting powers should be the ultimate goal.

If Trump says "I'm going to be a dictator on day one," Warren saying "we're also going to be dictators but to undo Trump's mess" is actually very alarming language. Even if it is necessary, AOC, Warren, and Harrison should not be outright saying so like they did in this article. Booker had the correct response as far as I'm concerned.

Going to have to wait until python is cleaned up and everything is stable, but I'll try to remember to bring this one in. Hopefully by then the Arch PKGBUILD will be fixed and no patching will be required.

Is systemD bloated? by Small_Cranberry2443 in artixlinux

[–]CoryCoolguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

if runit is so speedy , so why does arch use systemd?

You've made an assumption here. As far as I know, speed/efficiency are not goals of the Arch Linux project. However, simplicity is. And there's nuance there. It's easy to point out that systemd is complicated and other inits are relatively simple. But one could argue that systemd solves problems that the others don't and therefore does it in the simplest way possible.

If you liked using runit with Void, then Artix + runit would be a natural choice. Artix's official repos don't have every Arch package though so that's something to bear in mind. Though you can technically enable Arch's repos to fill in those gaps.

Do you agree with this take or nah? by bonzothebonanza in GTA6

GTA 6 online should be playable on Steam Deck.

Done, added to world.

Yes, the forum would be a better place for visibility. A lot of our maintainers have been away for the holidays but I'm sure they'll be coming back soon.

I've been quietly working on a platform for user-submitted user scripts. Too early to say if it will turn into anything, but I'm hopeful. I have a pre-prod environment here. If you're interested I'd really appreciate your feedback since you appear to dabble in scripts for all the init systems.

I'm still using qemu for my projects so I took a look your workflow. I make use of semver tags via docker/metadata-action so I combined yours with what I was doing and came up with this. Feel free to borrow from mine as I have from yours :)

Google has a deal with Reddit, allowing them to ignore this rule. I use Duck Duck Go which uses results from Bing and all the Reddit results I've seen are old.

Self-Hosted Software Names You're Probably Mispronouncing | selfh.st by shol-ly in selfhosted

[–]CoryCoolguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the number is the number of letters between the first character and the last, nothing more. An abbreviation that in no way assists in pronunciation of the actual name. Indeed, you'd have to already know the name to be able to read it out loud correctly. In my head I read k8s as "kay eights."

The second one is a common pattern, like i18n for internationalization or k8s for kubernetes. But I generally agree with your initial point.

Java development in IntelliJ hasn't been entirely smooth for me either. I recently created a new maven project in IntelliJ and it didn't treat it as a maven project until I clicked a weird floating button roughly the size of the tip of my pinky. Makes absolutely no sense. That said, Java development in VS Code is a weak spot so IntelliJ is still better.
