Oh, that gives me hope we won't get rushed plot.

I feel like writers panicked that we have only one episode left in the season but the romance is not even started.

There's suddenly a whole lot of action

We want to inhibit when running stuff like pacman, wget, cp or mv

There is already a separate systemd-inhibit command that does exactly what you need. Trust your users, they are capable of googling it (most of the time).

Only pacman and wget will benefit from suspend inhibition, because it will prevent breaking network connections. cp and mv will resume working just fine even when you hibernated your laptop while cp was executing. And in that case it's less bug-prone to scan your system for active TCP connections to external addresses instead of adding a hack wakelock inside your terminal or inside wget.

It is also a poor idea to mess up with system-wide settings from some command when the user does not expect it, you'll likely to get a thousand invalid bug reports that sleep mode is broken when some service randomly decides to use wget to continuously read from local Unix socket.

Yup. Now we have long-range WiFi filling that niche.

  • They split off from Google.

  • They are not using satellites, they shine a lazer from one fixed tower to another, with range about 20 km.

Well, you know, a jar of Marmite in your hand gives you those impulsive urges to smear, I mean, spread it on random food.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Good luck! I just grabbed what was lying around, and it happened to be a cookie. Next time I'll probably fry peanuts with Marmite, but that recipe is already widely known, so it's kinda less exciting.

I have mixed sour cream with Marmite to make it spread more evenly over banana, and the taste is... not good. The salt overpowers all other components. It's even worse than plain Marmite banana, because you can actually taste the banana before Marmite diffuses over your tongue. The best combination was cream banana without Marmite, to no surprise.

Marmite cream oat cookie is a surprising discovery. The overpowering saltness of Marmite is balanced by the overpowering sweetness of the oat cookie, the same way salted caramel works. I don't think the cream is even necessary, you can rub Marmite on the cookie's hard surface much easier than on the soft banana.

That's because the article that started the whole argument tried very hard to present an expected behavior for embedded chips as a security hole.

Linux desktop on Android have been attempted many times with variable success, and it goes way beyond command line, see UserLAnd

It brings all Linux desktop apps to your phone, and all you need is Bluetooth mouse.

Do you need to edit an audio file? Try looking on Play Store, every audio editor has ads and subscription and offers only cropping and equalizer. But what if you need cross-fade? Open your Linux VM - bam! Audacity! All the audio editing tools you can ever need, and ten times more that you'll never use!

Do you need to make a meme? Go download some shitty meme maker from Play Store, that will only let you add text to ten preset images. Or get a photo editor that has twenty sepia effects but won't let you combine two images. But a simple sudo apt-get install gimp command in your Linux VM, and you get a pixel-perfect image editor with transparency support, layer support, and a thousand brushes, and you can even plug a graphics tablet into your Android tablet and have stylus pressure making brush strokes of different width, or just use an Android tablet with stylus support, the pressure works there too.

Do you want some more esoteric thing like sqlite3 database viewer? Well, Linux VM is your only choice.

It becomes even more important if you want to buy a cheap Android tablet and ise it as a kiosk for some business. Run the backend server on your Linux VM, run the frontend in the Android web browser, and you don't need to buy an expensive POS terminal.

Nope. You'll only know how good is it when you run it on the actual hardware. Yeah you can install apps on Android emulator, but what makes or breaks custom ROM is driver support on actual hardware.

 

If combining two things from a fridge could be called a new recipe. It tastes good, I promise.

The shop also had regular sprink bottles with the same cologne, but this bottle is shaped like a fuel can, so it looked manlier to me. It contains 80% alcohol, so it's also a disinfectant and an after-shave.

 

I don't need any fancy tiling window managers. One fullscreen window per desktop, and 12 virtual desktops, that was my workflow for 10 years. Then I incorporated KDE activities into my workflow, which are exactly like virtual desktops but switched with Meta-Tab not with Ctrl-F1 - Ctrl-F12. Wonderful!

And then, Plasma devs broke it. Switching activities now puts my foreground fullscreen window (one per desktop) into background, and switches keyboard focus to the desktop. Give me back my keyboard shortcuts, and you could also rename Plasma back to KDE while you're at it, thank you very much.

At least there is a bug opened, but it's doubtful that Plasma devs will fix it before Debian 13 release. I can't even find motivation to update my OS anymore.

 

Also works for searches 'Times new roman' and 'Courier new font', but not for 'Lucida console font' or 'Dejavu sans font'.

Washed tomatoes and pasta

  1. Get half-kilo of fresh tomatoes, three onions, and three carrots. You can use the cheapest tomatoes for this, the heat treatment will average the taste. Wash everything. Chop onions and carrots, dump into the frying pan. Add salt.

Onions and carrots

  1. Fry diced onions and carrots in a pan, using a generous finger-thick layer of oil, preferrably olive, until the onions don't sting anymore and carrots start to soften.

Simmered tomatoes and hot pepper

  1. Cut tomatoes in 2 pieces each, you'll mash them anyway so thin slices do not matter. Dump tomatoes into the pan. Cover with a lid, cook on a slow fire for about 10 minutes until they become sauce. Mash and stir each 3 minutes so they won't burn. Cooking less will preserve taste of fresh tomatoes, cooking longer will make it taste closer to canned pasta sauce. But they won't have that taste of the can that you will get with canned tomatoes.

The secret ingredient and spices

  1. Add the secret ingredient - half-kilo of canned pork. This is an optional step - if you prefer taste over calories, it's better to prepare a separate meat dish instead. If you want to add hot pepper, add it now so it will spread uniformly.

The secret ingredient

  1. Boil pasta while tomatoes are cooking - the standard 500 gram package will do, preferably something with a lot of surface like penne so it can soak up more sauce.

  2. Dump Italian or French spice mix into the pan. Turn off the heat, let it simmer for 1 minute so the herbs will soften.

Finished pasta

  1. Dump pasta into the pan. Done! Plating is optional, you can eat it straight from the pan. And the next day you can prepare another wonderful dish - yesterday's pasta re-heated until it's crusty.

I often want to copy some phrase from a post to search it on the web. Long-pressing post text minimizes this post into a single line, which is not very useful IMO, I would rather have text selection cursor like in a web browser.

 

I've unlocked all weapons in Vampire Survivors, and I'm too bored to grind the remaining 14 unlocks.

Please recommend me some proper, $10 up-front games.

 

I've alrealy played all versions of Space Marshals, Tesla vs Lovecraft, Tesla Force, Jydge, Crimsonland, Grind Infinity, Solomon Keep, PewPew, and Vampire Survivors (although it's not twin stick but close enough).

Are there any new twin stick shooters, preferrably something I can pay for once and without IAP going up to $100?

 

I want to open large image with comments below when clicking on a post, like in Jerboa
