EDIT: There’s a fix. https://unpackerr.zip Automatically unzips these rar containers into coherent files for importing via sonarr/radarr. I suppose you can do this manually with tar if you’re brave.

I like watching DF but imo it might not be everyone’s cup of tea. It’s probably the best game I’ll never play
TLDR you might be interested in the rust-based scheduler one of the Canonical Devs released as a PoC. Seemed to be designed similar to your needs of keeping the system (particularly games) responsive even whilst running heavy tasks like kernel compilations. You can swap out schedulers at run time on Linux iirc?

that’s true but the Jerusalem post isn’t a primary source in this case, the direct source would be a Knesset press statement.
I’d say least prefer a rule on serving these sites behind a cache link so the ads and clicks aren’t registered!
Or they found out about his time at Epstein Island and didn’t wanna fuck w that
Once again asking that we don’t directly link to the fucking Jerusalem Post, which is barely more reputable and progressive than if the daily mail began demanding its editors to browse stormfront forums for 8 hours a day
I think a lot of new indie Devs, having little knowledge of the actual state of the industry, see a publisher offering them big money to make video games (their dream!) and ignore (or lack resources to properly interrogate) the fine print. There are countless examples of publishers simply destroying indie Devs on a whim like this.
I didn’t say you have to know everything, just like I don’t know everything in my house and how it works, but I do know how to do basic repairs so I don’t pay loads of money for a guy to come and unclog a drain. I know how to reset my circuit breakers, how to change a fuse, how to change a lightbulb.
That’s what the terminal is. No one here is telling you to write a bootloader in assembly or meticulously study kernel environment parameters. No one advocating for basic knowledge of a terminal likely has knowledge on subnet masks, compilers, or other low level systems that a modern Linux abstracts for you.
But! I know how to update my packages from a terminal. I know how to install a package outside of a repository, or one that’s not listed on my graphical package manager. I know how to export an environment variable to get my software to work how it should.
That’s what “knowing the terminal” gives you. It’s a basic skill that unlocks you from being a mere “user” of a system to an owner of a system. I don’t think everyone will ever need the terminal, but there are people who are replying to me that seem to have a genuine fear that people have knowledge of their computers in a meaningful way.
Knowledge is autonomy for whatever you do, and there’s a reason why the most profitable of systems are the very systems that are locked down abstracted and “user friendly” in all ways that harm a user’s rights and freedoms.
I don’t think it’s a theory rather than an objective fact. A lot of “traditional” computer skills have almost totally gone extinct because consumer devices are designed to hide as many system features from you as possible.
The saving grace is that even being raised without it, you end up needing these skills to become a developer of any decent calibre. That gives at least some route for these skills to transfer to new generations.
If you want to use Linux without the terminal nowadays it’s pretty easy. But also I think the fear of the terminal is part of the culture that consumer electronics have cultivated where people don’t know (or want to know) how their systems work.
If you take the time to use it, not only can you save yourself time, but also learn a lot more about how you can fix things when they go wrong! That kind of knowledge gives you so much more ownership of your system, because you don’t have to rely on your manufacturer to solve problems for you.
Same for Mac and Windows too, the terminal is something that shouldn’t be necessary, but when it is it helps to know what you’re doing. :)
I installed mint and zorin on virtual machines (theyre easy to set up in windows with virtualbox) and then just put them fullscreen and used em like my actual computer for a bit. Very useful for learning stuff without the commitment of a proper install.
The trick to writing a JavaScript web app is that first you consider literally any other technology to solve your problem and only then consider using javascript.
Fair dos. In general I’m in the camp that proprietary software using open software isn’t as bad as them using exclusively proprietary code, but enforcing has always been pretty hard so I’ve never been one to complain when people do libre-forks of stuff.
That being said, I did see post a while back that was a great example of what’s possible under the best case scenario!

I use a Lenovo 14APH8 (Ideapad Pro 5) which is essentially the same system specification. Pretty brilliant laptop but the drivers have been struggling until this year, finally! Especially with high DPI, high refresh rate screens where memory corruption is easier to run into.
Brilliant post by the way. I’ve just spotted that Smokeless UMAF which might help alleviate the issue I’ve noticed on my laptop which is Lenovo giving me 28GB of RAM but only 1GB of DMA Buffer. Absolutely bullshit when my Steamdeck runs fine with 4GB and barely touches the swapfile. I wonder if this’ll let me get the true 780M performance I yearn for!
EDIT: Hell yeah UMA buffer override lets fuckin GOOOOO
This is very cool. Im a fan of Nix from a tech perspective but im still not sold because of its poor UX, among many other complaints. IMO it’s the future of the Linux distro, but now that might be closer than before!
Yeah I didn’t realise they were rar formats from how they show up on disk - Usually people name.their.torrents.like.this so it fucks up typical file name conventions.
I’ll keep that in mind too, thanks! Not using qbitmanage yet though I’ll have to look into that 👀
