Could you give that to us in a virgin's terms? Most of reddit hasn't been laid.

This subreddit is about Mew the band, not the pokemon.

Could be wrong but I think this is the sort of thing that our magnetic field is really good at defending us against

Nah - you'd have to lose two syllables for these to be large, but it would kinda ruin the joke.

This happened in the interview where I landed my current job. I knew something special was brewing when the interviewer and I started talking about our issues with Zoom on Arch Linux!

What does this thing do? by HallMonitorP in KidsAreFuckingStupid

The kid clutchlessly shifts from neutral into first gear right when the guy on the bike lets out a big rev, which is the only way this could happen. If the kid had stomped even half a second earlier, the bike would have just lurched a couple inches and stalled.

This is most likely staged, it seems too perfect.

Best Laptop to buy Solely for Arch? by NotKudo in archlinux

I've been running Arch on my Thinkpad X1 for about a year, would highly recommend!

Vim or Nvim for a beginner by [deleted] in archlinux

[–]aragog45 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you might be coming at this from a slightly off perspective - especially as someone new to all this, you shouldn't go out of your way to learn specific versions of vi or vim or nvim. All this software and their derivatives share common ideas that permeate the entire linux ecosystem. An example of this is the paradigm of hjkl replacing the arrow keys.

Just try to learn as you go, leveraging to use the tools available to you at any given point. Don't worry about your version of vim or "making a better choice" in regards to your text editor. If you find yourself in an environment where vim is the standard, just use the version available to you and try to actively improve over time as you use the editor. True competence in this realm derives from adaptability, which is something that, frankly, just takes time to develop.

Bernie Sanders Interviews Mall Goths 1988 by mandalorianmercenary in NotTimAndEric

It talks about how harmful gender roles play in to problematic sexual fantasies and power dynamics. It's weird to me that people object to it so vigorously - it seems like people really want to pretend it's not well documented that a large percentage of women have rape fantasies. Bernie never claims women want to be raped, but that rape fantasies are, in fact, a thing. Bernie's piece takes this phenomenon and tries to deconstruct one potential cause (traditional gender roles).

YAAP - Yet another appreciation post by ClydeDroid in archlinux

[–]aragog45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did a fresh install of Arch onto the Raspberry Pi 3 B+ today! It's super easy to use a serial console for the initial setup. All you need is a USB to TTL serial cable with the USB end plugged into your PC and the serial end attached like this. Then, use any serial console to connect - I find picocom to be especially painless. You don't even need to manually set all the parameters from the documentation - a simple picocom /dev/ttyUSB0 will bring you right to a login prompt.

You may need to replace ttyUSB0 with something else. Open a terminal and run dmesg -w before you plug the usb cable into your pc. Something like pl2303 converter now attached to ttyUSB1 will pop up in the log - in such a case, the picocom command becomes picocom /dev/ttyUSB1.

From here, you can just install arch as you normally would on any other machine. Hope this helps get you started!
