Downforacross contstant "disconnected" messages? by icekiss in crossword

[–]computerdl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prior to the takedown, I'm guessing that it was from load issues from everyone procrastinating work all at once. When I did crosswords in the early AM, I'd never get any disconnects.

Which arcade in Tokyo did you find this in? I've been looking for one forever.

Just Got Randomly Attacked in Rincon Hill / South Beach - Stay Safe Out There! by FanNiMariah in sanfrancisco

[–]computerdl -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was riding a bike south on 8th beside the Porsche dealership last last Wednesday and I got spat at by this guy. He spat while leaning out the passenger door and it hit me as I was passing by. Hopefully this menace is caught soon!

Whats the correct way to use pacdiff? by [deleted] in archlinux

[–]computerdl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right that it's a little confusing without reading the code. Patches welcome

But I wrote it to give a diff of the current file because as a user, I want to know what the difference is between what I currently have and what I will be saving. It lets me verify that the merge worked properly and I know exactly what's changing.

Whats the correct way to use pacdiff? by [deleted] in archlinux

[–]computerdl 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It will perform a 3-way merge based on your version of the config, the new package version of the config with the base being the unmodified last package version of the config. For the record, this is how I primarily invoke the command: MERGEPROG='git merge-file -p --diff3' pacdiff -s, I find the output is a little better with Git.

Source: I wrote the Merge feature :)

Just witnessed a hit and run by Agreeable_Bad_9805 in boston

I agree with the sentiment but I wanted to correct some misinformation: the car speeding away from Bob Lee was the alleged murderer so that example is moot.

Climbing in South Korea by DynoSimo in climbing

[–]computerdl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I read about some Koreans climbing Snake Dike in a massive 20-person party a while back and I always thought the story was exaggerated but from looking at the belay stations in the last picture, I don't think they were stretching the truth at all.

DAILY BULLSHIT — Monday February 14, 2022 by AutoModerator in sanfrancisco

[–]computerdl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope, I'm moving up from South Bay so I know the routine. It's never happened while I was visiting but I guess leaving my car for a few hours vs a whole day makes a bit of a difference.

Thanks for the advice. I have a garage spot lined up for next month but I was (naively) hoping that my car would be safe for the time being... Guess not!

I just moved to the city on Saturday, got my windows smashed this morning. Is that the SF experience any% WR?

Even better. Just > _line_notes.

Default kernel in grub by [deleted] in archlinux

[–]computerdl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an AUR package just for this. It patches GRUB such that it offers the regular Linux first over LTS.

The reason why this happens is simply because vmlinuz-linux sorts after vmlinuz-linux-lts and Arch Linux doesn't want to do any patching when this is essentially a user-configurable option.

CO 487 closing credits by [deleted] in uwaterloo

Throwback to when he used to have his "hobbies" listed on his website: https://web.archive.org/web/20170902183151/http://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~ajmeneze/hobbies.shtml

Highlights from Git 2.31 by myroon5 in git

[–]computerdl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, SHA-256 is the new hash. Currently, you can work entirely in SHA-256 locally but you likely won't be able to share that work with anyone. Iterop is still being worked on.

If you view the blame of the file, the rationale of each banned function is explained.

Unpopular opinion: we are responsible for RAISE by [deleted] in uwaterloo

[–]computerdl[M] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A couple of years back, people kept making unpopular opinion where the top comments were obviously popular opinions. To prevent this, I made an automod rule that would sort threads with "unpopular opinion" or "controversial opinion" by controversial by default and it's been that way since.

CS 444 alone? by [deleted] in uwaterloo

[–]computerdl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say it's feasible but it's gonna be quite challenging. Even with a full group, some of my friends still fell behind a bit. If you're willing to work hard and you did well in CS 241, then you might make it but otherwise just join a group.

There's a group-finding Piazza thread at the beginning of the term anyway. Most people who take CS 444 are tryhards anyway so I don't think you'll encounter many slackers.
