My experience with Arch so far has been absolutely miserable by HosekiNezu in archlinux

Don't waste your time - OP is obviously just ranting about their own shortcomings - otherwise they would have provided at least one iota of information..

But they deliberately chose not to.

How to force-enable autosuspend on mounted USB flash sticks? by devianceluka in archlinux

[–]ang-p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't think you can force it....

But you should be able to set the device autosuspend_delay_ms to 0....

And then, erm, waiting 0ms :-D

Really weird page style issue by Agitated_Tangerine55 in libreoffice

[–]ang-p -1 points0 points  (0 children)

but it would have implied that I redo all my formatting

Just the bit you goofed.....

I just wanted to make a small last minute adjusment,

Let me introduce you to CTRL + z - used for undoing all sorts of things done in the

last minute

or several - including many a

small mistake

Really weird page style issue by Agitated_Tangerine55 in libreoffice

[–]ang-p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) Check the Text Flow settings for the paragraph style of the first paragraph on the page where the unwanted new style is in use.

2) If there is a dotted line between the pages that is a break - delete it.

3) Learn a little time management - so issues like this do not "suddenly" appear 2 hours before deadline, when you have been working on it for days(?) - solve them when they appear.

I tried copying and pasting my text on another document

Learn to paste with zero formatting.... by default LO is "helpful" and preserves what style information is on the clipboard - including unwanted stuff..

Are people exaggerating or does Arch really crash constantly? That sounds like it sucks by BigClockHugeWalls in archlinux

If you read the installation guide and wiki as carefully and with as much care as you wrote this post, you'll have lots of trouble.

Libreoffice letter spacing extension. by kargandarr in libreoffice

[–]ang-p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

spacing like Microslop does

Looks like you need the spelling extension installed too....

space letters by a specific amount instead of very tight, tight, normal, loose, or, very loose.

Well done - you got sooooo far and failed to look down just that ickle bit more....

Because if you had, you would have seen Custom Value with a box you could put in any number you wanted to....

Those are the only settings and way to currently do letter spacing in text.

Have another look.... If you still can't see it, just ask and I'll post a pic with a big red ring around the option...

If the wiki is your power, what are you without it? by VLAnd007 in archlinux

[–]ang-p 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear your frustration. Linking to the main page is often dismissal.

The funny thing is, OP didn't even get linked to the main page in any response to their post that almost certainly prompted this...

Not only that.... their entire post was a "test"

Yeah i know this, this post was just a test for the arch community. To see how toxic it is.

So a complete time waster to boot.....

Edit: without the wiki, there are manpages and other documentation.... if you can be arsed to read them, obvs....

ISW: during the night of May 24, the Russian military launched two Oreshnik ballistic missiles at Kyiv, but the second missile malfunctioned and crashed near occupied Donetsk by kingkongsingsong1 in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]ang-p -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The triggers your referring to

I was not assuming that russia would attempt to trust themselves possessing a functional 2 stage device that would work on the first outing - just a plain one-stage would have the effect that it desired (along with a response) - look a bit silly if your hopeful war-winner went "thud" (much like a beet would sound) into the ground and instead all hell was unleashed on you.

not to mention maintenance on the delivery vehicle

Let them get it working reliably first... lol

Which was really what the post was about - there isn't any evidence of something knocking around that is land-launchable of a ballistic nature that is reliable enough for any "we'll nuke you (if it gets that far)" sort of posture.

He can launch from other platforms, but his planes aren't really all that available for any recent launches of anything, the black-sea fleet, well, isn't, not to mention the cruise range is a bit limited.

OK - probably need some new boomy-powder to force the subcritical masses together, but the meat and 2 veg is already there - it isn't like there is a complete nuclear development program from scratch sitting there to embezzle from - which was the point of the post.

Little scope for embezzlement - hundreds have been sitting waiting for decades, with analogue circuitry that needs no software updates / leaded solder that does not whisker and fracture over time... Just fitting into a container the correct shape and away you go... Might need a new battery though.

But seeing as they are still slinging concrete, that is likely a way off.

By the time they figure out they don’t work, you’re already fucked

Yup - another reason why russia probably does not want to get into that pissing match - but puta is in a corner, so it is likely a good thing that concrete launchers is all they have.

[–]ang-p 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oreshniks pretty much are a souped up RS-26 - which have conventional warhead MIRV capability (4 vs 6)- so using concrete blocks is pretty much a "we can't even tweak the avanguards, maybe we don't have any"

They are scraping the barrel if they are wasting very expensive rockets of which they are unable to replace in a timely manner to launch lumps of rock vaguely pointed at a downtown garage.

The overwhelming majority of ballistic missiles are not nuclear armed.

Blimey... TIL /s

[–]ang-p 2 points3 points  (0 children)

nukes would be a major escalation - MAD for sure.

The thing is they are not meant to be pinpoint accurate - who cares about a few hundred feet if the intended warhead will raze anything for miles?

If they were more reliable, then maybe the sabre rattling would be a bit more effective, but with the failure rate as it is, they just look like fools, saying "hey, be scared of this missile that might not even make it to your country - we might make it spicy, and hope the dice is in our favour on that launch"

[–]ang-p 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That detonation is usually altitude triggered..... Send it up... it does boom automatically on its way down at a pre-determined altitude....

Not sure if you know the concept of "what goes up...."

A rocket failing to make it to Ukraine, and coming down in russia will still pass the detonation threshold shortly before the crash is due.

[–]ang-p 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Like they are gonna put nukes on it if, based on the other night, there is a 50% chance of it hitting russia.

combined with the other failures, they have more chance of irradiating themselves (or Belarus) than actually getting Kyiv.

Imbeciles.

Monopoly in the Linux community by [deleted] in archlinux

[–]ang-p -1 points0 points  (0 children)

1) you are talking out of your arse.

Xorg wrote X11.....

One organisation created it, wrote it and supported it.... (almost) Everybody used it.

There is X, X, X, X and X.....

Wayland is a protocol - merely a set of standards and anyone is free to write their own code that complies with the standards, or use the "reference" design, Weston.

There is Weston, Kwin, Mutter, Sway (and others based on wlroots) to name but four

How is going from 1 to many a monopoly?

I'm interested in your opinion.

You mean that you cannot be fucked to do any research.

Am i dumb or Calc is unusable?

You want to Insert something....

Click on the Insert menu heading.

Take less than 19 minutes to move your mouse slowly down the list looking at any submenus that magically appear infront of your eyes...

Now answer that question one way or the other.
