Wait until you learn about vim keybindings. Instead of moving your hand to the arrow keys, you can stay on the homerow and movie up down left right from there.

I've tried onion rings at at least 5 different resteraunts. All of them just tasted like heart failure. Don't know how they are popular.

Tubular with Sponsor block. Makes playlists like Pitch Meetings a lot easier to binge when it skips the end credits. (Didn't even know PewDiePies homelab video had a sponsor until I went to YouTube to leave a comment)

It appears to be a serious video too. Lost brain cells watching it, so I don't reccomend

My arse has had my back when my friends left me.

What's a really popular game franchise you just can't get into? in c/[email protected]

I think I/we were too old to get into pokemon. I tried 3 games, and got bored about 4 fights in. I'm sure back when that was the peak of gaming, it was amazing. But now after modern games, turn based gameplay is just not for me too

Yeah. That looks like something Codyslab will do...

Bragging about Linux is hard (lemmynsfw.com)
 

Cant wait for the day I can delete Discord and never look back.

Get a ThinkPad+Gentoo they said. It will be fun they said. (lemmynsfw.com)
 

1hr+ for a general update* (following the guide. Pre-kernel)

On a more serious note, gentoo is fun... On competent hardware. This is a 4 core Celeron N2940 with 4gb of RAM.

*emerge --ask --verbose --update --deep --changed-use @world is too long to type...

Do you wish your father (who proved who is OK with punching his children) a happy birthday? (lemmy.world)
 

On the one hand, my father lost his dad when he was 12, so he is not perfect. I want to assume he is atleast trying his best. But this past year, "his best" was "OK with punching his children" and as far as I know, hasnt seen his grand children. (My sister has a kid. Living happy with her partner. Since sister and partner is not married, my dad doesnt acknowlege them.)

Im OK with skipping the birthday text to father, but mother (who i still talk to) insist i send the text.

Gentoo help: sys-kernel/Installkernel (wiki.gentoo.org)
 

Im following the handbook, and I'm up to configuring the kernel. (In a vm. Skipping the optional installing firmware/microcode for now)

Trying for an OpenRC system, but it looks like all the steps need systemd.

All the videos I watched seems to skip this step and just go to Kernel configuration and compilation, but I dont want to a) mix old videos and up-to-date handbook, and b) blindly copy commands. I understood mostly everything untill now. Just this kernel step where I got lost the first time I tried to install gentoo.

Micro Transactions actually suck (lemmy.world)
 

Younger brother asking how to get earn minecoins. You cant. Have to buy them. That dissapointment in his voice. The heart break i feel as the older brother.

Cant imagine on christmas, parenta go all in on the new system and popular game, then to realise that thier child cant have the max amount of fun* without paying extra.

Am I allowed to use gentoo if im not 40+ or dating? (lemmy.world)
 

On a more serious note, how does updating apps on gentoo work? I understand that everything is built on your system, but then if the app is updated, do you need to re-compile every time?

Before I moved here, this was easily a trick question. All made up answers. (And im ashamed to know the answer)

Swapping out SIM cards before my flight tomorrow (lemmynsfw.com)
 

Daily drive a Pixel 7 Pro with GrapheneOS. Does 90% of my daily needs while use my PC for the last 10%. Planned to use a spare phone with Stock Android for my holiday. Pixel 7 SIM card tray broke inside the phone. I love the Pixel software features, but with this, fingerprint issues and past battery issues, i dont know if i want another pixel phone after this

Finished high school 7 years ago. been working for 6 of them. first time i reached $10,000 in savings (25yo) (lemmy.world)
 

Too embarassed to tell anyone I know IRL, but am excited for my new future. Been throwing alot of money with small things. PC, alcohol, movies (and im ashamed to say, funko pops). Recently i took the plunge and cut out alcohol in an attempt to get my life together, and i feel like i have a whole new start.
