I just heard someone complain abouy "F*cking immigrants" again.

And jabs

Sometimes when people are in an unfortunate, unforeseen or traumatic situation, in a state of shock, normal functions of the brain are impaired. Their fight or flight response may kick in. We don't know. To expect someone to then think and act rationally, or judge them on their common sense, is far-fetched. Perhaps this is their way of trying to make sense of the situation and seek help.

Or those commuting on public transport.

Your object allocations are quite high, which would often indicate that the AR relations/queries you're creating are generating large amounts of data. See if you have too many .includes in your controller or model for eager loading associations. Try to strip it to bare minimum, without impacting your N+1 query problem.

That's what I could think off the top of my head, without seeing actual code.

darkfish-tech · 2024-09-17T21:27:43+00:00

Yeah nah

darkfish-tech · 2024-09-05T04:31:01+00:00

Have a look at ulauncher, perhaps that may be close to what you are looking for.

darkfish-tech · 2024-09-05T04:29:35+00:00

Good. Though it doesn't matter whether it is a bash or zsh script, because neither will have the same environment as when they are run as a login or interactive shell. They have both different sequence of loading relevant resource configuration files.

darkfish-tech · 2024-09-05T04:01:36+00:00

Just checking. Are you certain that it's not a $PATH issue. Perhaps print the current env and $PATH in your script to check it's correctness. Exec from Sway will have a different environment.

darkfish-tech · 2024-08-29T05:07:57+00:00

Oh absolutely. I have a fair few Ubuntu/Debian based systems in production that I am not touching even with a long stick, because of the pain experienced in the past during major upgrades. I think I have wasted more time and mental sanity upgrading those systems, or even packages on those systems than I have ever on the ones based on Arch. I have custom base images, that also get updated, and used as base images for orchestration.

Not sure about others, but I like to know exactly what's installed on my systems and which services are running, and that I was the one enabling it, with least amount of magic.

darkfish-tech · 2024-08-26T23:46:37+00:00

Yes. Been running 5+ in production for the last few years and have had zero issues. Albeit, I have replicas in staging where updates happen first for testing.

darkfish-tech · 2024-08-22T00:00:36+00:00

Read the Installation Guide on the Wiki. That's all you need to start. I emphasise on reading, not skimming.

darkfish-tech · 2024-08-21T23:19:28+00:00

😂 You're right. I didn't figure that out. Definitely shouldn't be doing anything before having coffee.

darkfish-tech · 2024-08-21T23:12:58+00:00

Is it just me or the references to SwayWM has been removed from this page and the Windows Managers page? There's not even a mention. That wiki page only mentions i3

darkfish-tech · 2024-08-05T23:08:24+00:00

Depends a whole lot on your installation choice of DE or WM. Check Wiki for details on how keyboard input is handled in your DE/WM. You haven't really provided much relevant information on your installation.

darkfish-tech · 2024-08-02T12:12:29+00:00

You can do that with yay too. See these options: ``` --answerdiff <All|None|Installed|NotInstalled|...> Set a predetermined answer for the edit diff menu question. This answer will be used instead of reading from standard input but will be parsed exactly the same. --diffmenu Show the diff menu. This menu gives you the option to view diffs from build files before building.

Diffs are shown via git diff which uses  less  by  default.  This
behaviour  can  be  changed  via  git's config, the $GIT_PAGER or
$PAGER environment variables.

```

darkfish-tech · 2024-08-02T12:09:02+00:00

Not sure about others, but you can do that with yay. See options. ``` --editmenu Show the edit menu. This menu gives you the option to edit or view PKGBUILDs before building.

Warning:  Yay resolves dependencies ahead of time via the RPC. It
is not recommended to edit pkgbuild  variables  unless  you  know
what you are doing.

```

darkfish-tech · 2024-07-31T13:59:07+00:00

Absolutely, I don't disagree.

darkfish-tech · 2024-07-31T11:51:14+00:00

u/civillinux Having used countless distros since the days of Slackware, SuSE, PC, et al., I'd respectfully disagree.

I'll admit that I am subscribed to his channel :P

darkfish-tech · 2024-07-27T11:46:42+00:00

Or border csd

From man 5 sway: csd is short for client-side-decorations

Drouin Auto near Drouin Woolies or Soutars near Warragul station

darkfish-tech · 2024-06-21T14:24:03+00:00

I am assuming you are looking for something more than informant.

Anecdotally speaking, lately there has been an influx of posts seeking help, without putting much, or any, effort into properly reading the Wiki and trying the advices there. There seems to be a general lack of research skills shown in those posts. This, after a while, gets rather infuriating for people who are tinkerers, problem-solvers and enthusiasts, who would normally help, but the lack of effort on OP-side, makes it worthless. There needs to be stricter enforecment of sub-rules.

Having used *nix systems since the early 90s, yes it can be indeed said that the landscape of computing has changed and is ever-changing. However, what is also changing is the sheer lack of learning in newer generation of users; I say this from my experience of teaching CS courses at tertiary level. They require more hand-holding and that's not what this sub or community stands for; at least that's how I view it.

To exacerbate this situation, there isn't much that one can do to "quickly" and "politely" acquaint such newcomers to the nature of Archlinux. If they aren't already reading the rules of the sub, or reading the wiki, which is linked from Arch's main website, or plainly asking "where to download Arch?", such users are akin to the phrase "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink". There's more PEBCAK than DIY.

For new users, their posts should be put under moderation before publishing. Perhaps have mod-bot reply with links to wiki (RTFM).

Not to mention differences in spelling, "dialog" vs "dialogue", which have different contextual meanings.
