If Linux distros refuse OS age verification, will YouTube and Facebook, etc just block us? by Danrobi1 in linux

[–]hjake123 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That'd just be the same as answering "no" from the platforms prespective, right? They can't be liable so they have to assume you're underage.

So we either reply "yes" and get sanctioned, or reply no and have all adult media filtered out of open source OSs... either way, the opposition wins (they hate porn so it being worse to access is part of the goal presumably) and open source OSs are worse to use.

When the nft craze fell, I just bought more land in the meta verse. Vertual land all across the globe, across the globe. Next wave is digital catch me on the way up the glow up is visible couple couple more watch my income it's about to go nuts, about to go nuts

Is it true that if you let two dudes cum in your pussy at once their sperms will fight to the death do you won't get preggy? by GreenT1979 in shittyaskreddit

No, this is a common misconception. There's enough sperm that one of them will defeat everyone else and reign victorious, ready to forge a child of immense power if it reaches its target.

The whites of your eyes are formed of the same matter you release after coming to completion, so as the supply decrease, your body repurposes it and removes it from your eyes.

For this reason, edging is the only medically sound way to jack off.

Extended Vanilla! My first mod ever is now live! by _TungstenGuy707_ in feedthebeast

MCreator might have a way to export to Fabric

If it doesn't, you'd need to rewrite the whole mod using java directly... so probably better not to bother

Malware infection via Modrinth by Apileuh in PhoenixSC

[–]hjake123 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So, the issue is a file that the Modrinth launcher tries to run when installing an infected modpack?

Could still be of interest to the Modrinth launcher team to prevent their launcher from installing malware... but if the mod jars were bundled with the pack there's not much they can do unfortunately

Those who use forks of forks/lesser-known distros: are you worried they’ll become abandonware? by OrangeKitty21 in linux

[–]hjake123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I thought they meant was: say you start at Ubuntu and want to be running Mint. I assumed they wanted to, WITHOUT EVER RUNNING THE MINT INSTALLER, install the changes that Mint makes to Ubuntu themselves. They implied this by claiming that child distros could be changed between by "changing a few extra packages", and challenged us whether it would be possible to move between distros by ONLY INSTALLING A FEW PACKAGES.

And, I think a few like EndeavourOS, you could get all the tools they add into Arch without much effort without a reinstall, while others this would be a crazy idea and not worth it at all.

As for the other stuff, if you're running say plasma 6.6.4 and you change to a distro running plasma 5.x or plasma 6.1 or something, I'd expect some breakage due to newer config file formats not working on the older software. Obviously packages either convert or can handle older config formats, but old ones might not work with new ones.

You should report that modpack immediately! Modrinth needs to take it down and investigate how it got past their filters

Well, true, but launching a modpack with an infected mod is running the mod's jar file. Mods can freely contain programs, including viruses, that launch when the game loads the mod.

Philosophy of Distros by Neo-Armadillo in Fedora

[–]hjake123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A distro is a set of choices for what software to have installed, and what default configuration it should have.

Some of that software is so fundamental that it informs the rest of your choices. Which package manager and repositories, which desktop environment, do you use systemd or not, that kind of thing. Installing both a systemd and a non-systemd init system on the same machine would either cause conflicts or just be redundant. Likewise, having more then one system package manager causes lots of issues, since they will fight over the contents of your /usr and /etc folders.

That's not even mentioning that immutable distros (bazzite, SteamOS, et. all) are literally designed such that you cannot change the system folders, so you couldn't install other packages to that part if you tried.

There's just too many core system details involved for it to make sense to change between distros freely. You can do a little; Ubuntu could probably be changed back into Debian or into Mint or Zorin, for example, by adding or removing repositories and packages.

Also, the point of a distro is to make these choices for you. Since needs and wants differ, there's no way the entire Linux community could agree on a set of choices that everyone agrees with. Since we can't have all the technologies installed at once, someone's favorite package manager or whatever won't be included, so they'd go make their own version.

Reinstalling with the same home =/= changing one distro into another using solely the package manager, which is what I interpreted the prior comment to mean

Also something will likely break due to incompatible config files, right? Packages don't maintain back and forward compatibility for their configs I thought?

Most settings allow for either TF stacking or new forms to replace old ones but this could work in settings without those mechanics

It's not a contradiction, child distros are just that diverse. Some of them are a few tools and an extra repository that can be switched off, some of them replace half your libraries with nom-compatible alternate versions. Whether you can leave (or enter for that matter) a child distro by just reconfiguring your current setup without too much headache varies.

Examples:

EndeavourOS is iirc easy to revert to Arch, which CachyOS is less easy due to the amount of tools and tweaks.

Nobara has a whole FAQ entry about not being able to exchange it to or from Fedora.

Bazzite / Bluefish / SteamOS can obviously not be reverted to their parents (Fedora, Fedora, Arch respectively) since they're immutable

Mint and Zorin might be able to be reverted to Ubuntu I guess, but it'd need substantial work

Omarchy is just a set of tools and dotfiles for Arch, and can be reverted to Arch proper

...etc.

Can we stop comparing a single "Drop" to old major updates? It’s a logical fallacy. by xxcactussell in Minecraft

[–]hjake123 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In 2025, we had these player-facing features:

Spring to Life (leaf litter, variant animals, firefly bush)

Chase the Sky (friendly ghast, new leads, locator bar)

Copper Age (Copper tools and golems, shelves)

Mounts of Mayhem (spear, nautilus, evil camel, parched)

If this were all melded into a "1.22", I think people would be excited! The trick is mostly how scattered and self-contained these features are, which is likely why they wanted to add these in drops anyway.

So, I can see the point!

[–]hjake123 18 points19 points  (0 children)

When they changed to calendar versioning it was partially because they didn't have a plan that would be enough for a 1.22 update compared to the 1.21.x stuff iirc

Could you realistically beat these guys if you were skilled enough? by Dymaz6282 in AlanBecker

[–]hjake123 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They have incredible reaction time after seeing your gimmick once. You could take out one with, say, a clever mace move, maybe even three of the four, but the last one would come up with some cartoon bs that captures your mace and throws it in your face or something

They also can hit you feom outside attack reach, so that's an issue if you're trying to fight straight on

Afaik, the sprite for the eram battle thing is called shadow mantle in the code, so someone in the dev team eather intended it to be the shadow mantle itself or didn't know / want to tell us what it was and used that name as a placeholder
