ah. I’ve been doing linux things, but maybe i’ll try out gridchat next time i’m on 9front
Are you on oftc?
Depends on the tech job. A lot of corporate IT support jobs care a lot more about troubleshooting windows because that’s what the employees use
It will never matter what your login shell, unless you have bash specific scripts in your login. chsh -s /bin/fish $(whoami)
is fine.
They’re bringing in all this fentanyl and stealing jobs from hardworking ma-and-pa black market fentanyl manufacturers!
That looks awesome! Having used fvwm, I’m a fan of the scrollable desktop
libs don’t care about democracy abroad. It doesn’t count as democracy if it oppises US economic interests
i mean, chown is just a binary. takeown is probably pretty similar, right?
It says in the article that he explicitly stated it was a clone, so yeah. only bad thing was being kinda a jerk when asked to take it down
Exactly. It feels more like making a snake clone with fun features. Second guy learned some stuff, but was a dick about it. Ultimately no one was hurt tho and this doesn’t seem like a big deal
But games and art aren’t exactly like that. People train by copying great art, and code and games especially are iterative. It’s not like he took a super useful thing and made millions by claiming he invented it. He took a game, made a clone and added features, admitting it was a clone. Like snake and pong and brickbreaker.
Maybe I’m bad at itch.io but it looks like they are both free. Lemme offer another analogy.
Your and your friend have sandwhich parties and one day you compare notes. Your friend’s sandwich is really good, so you make it yourself and add some things. Now you really like the sandwich so you throw a sandwhcih party with the new sandwich and tell everyone it’s based on your friend’s sandwich.
Then your friend asks why you coppied his sandwich and you’re a jerk about.
That’s how this reads to me
Guess I just don’t understand how it screws the other guy
I feel like it matters that he’s not selling it though… He liked the idea, added features he liked and is sharing what he made. He also mentions that it’s a clone. He sounds like a jerk, but like…
also great for old windows disk recover. Testdisk is awesome
Depends on what I’m doing. For most of my use cases, not really. For universal paperclips, I worry it’ll melt
My t430 is still going, but my x201 is in better shape.
Especially just getting into linux. Ext4 works well enough, when you learn enough to care about what it doesn’t do well try something then
I like ext4 because it’s easy. If anything breaks, ANY live USB can fix it. I use fat32 for my removeable drives, because anything can read it. I don’t use journalling for anything manually, but I imagine it’s useful when my disk crashes because I let my laptop die
