Springtails? You can test by seeing if they jump away from you.

If so, I think they only eat dead stuff. But I also heard they can sometimes chew on roots (and there are a lot of them here…)

Yep. Would be pretty bad software otherwise. Best to set it up so it keeps one monthly, one weekly, and 2-3 daily snapshots. Then you don’t even need to think about it, and it deletes older ones automatically. You can still do manual snapshots, and it won’t delete those.

I tried playing Stalker SoC, but I can’t get the audio working. Game works fine otherwise. I’m on Arch now, but I think I had the same issue on Mint and got it fixed somehow.

-dsound switches the sound player according to the logs, but still no sound.

Switching out OpenAL.dll didn’t do much either.

Any ideas?

Why does this look and sound like the inspirational scene of a Mockumentary?

Luckily, nobody is this passionate about liking javascript.

If the pants are stretchy they could fit one of the lowest (already pantsd) branches in each leg of the jeans, and easily pull it up. You need bigger and stretchier pants as you go up the tree, though.

Did T-posing appear in anteaters through convergent evolution or do we share a common ancestor with the T-posing genes?

Hide and Seek: Snitches Get Scritches

At some point M$ allowed the free download of something called “Windows XP Mode for Windows 7”. It was some virtual machine or something. What matters is that it’s possible to extract an XP ISO from this, which I have successfully used to spin up a virtual machine! It still complains about a license key, though.

The reason I mention this is that this is still available on archive.org, and it’s signed by M$, so you know it’s legit. I don’t know if other ISOs available have such a receipt of authenticity. Probably, but I never cared enough to check, especially since I grabbed this from the official website while it was available.

The caniniarchy is inescapable

The effects of microplastics(/nanoplastics) on humans aren’t fully understood yet. We mostly know that they are now everywhere, and are being linked to a number of health issues.

This article suggests that boiling hard tapwater can reduce the intake of microplastics via the formed “scale” trapping the plastic particles.

If you have the space (on a different drive, preferably) you could use Timeshift to create regular snapshots of (parts of) your system. You can restore deleted files like this from even months ago, if you configure it like that.

The first snapshot takes up as much space as all the files you want to save, but every following one only uses as much disk space as the new/changed files since the last snapshot.

Proton can run any Windows-only game on steam, you just have to enable it in the settings. The ones for which you didn’t have to enable this either have a native linux version, or are officially supported in Proton, and should run very well. The other games may have more issues, but even those might work excellently out of the box.

“but for specific cases, it is essential to consult a medical professional”

Foolish robot! I am the medical professional!

I prefer a distro with a nice name

That’s honestly a really good distro picking strategy for someone just moving to Linux.

Maybe at some point in its journey across all the social medias someone cleaned and sharpened it with AI? Perhaps it was able to deal with the large letters, but not the small jpegged ones.

…and then once again it was compressed to hell…

I don’t think this community will be of much help with a Segmentation Fault.

Ideally you would report this along with a minimal project where it happens. In your case, since you don’t really know how it started, stripping back as much as you can from your project and uploading that would probably be helpful for the devs.

In the report you should be very clear which version you were using when it happened the first time (4.3 dev6?), and which other version also keeps crashing after this (4.2.2?).

In C an assignment is an expression where the value is the new value of what was being assigned to.

In a = b = 1, both a and b will be 1.

a = *(p = p + 1)

is the same as

p += 1
a = *p

, so ++p.
