dammit! where can I send you my “spat coffee on keyboard” cleaning bill, huh?!

this is next level insanity and I am in awe.

indeed. it will serve you well in many, many… situations.

pretty much. learning things without a corresponding “oh… shit.” moment, just never quite stick with you the same way.

or, if you are really lucky, you can poke the right locations and release the magic blue smoke from the chips. super fun and all the cool kids are doing it.

GNUs Not Unix. I don’t recall him claiming it was. if he did, well… :-/

didnt finish the video but, seriously, one of the best laymans explainations I have seen of emulation and thin compatibility layers.

yes, but you really don’t want to nat if you dont have to - gets too messy too quickly when direct IP connectivity is right there.

@shadowintheday2@lemmy.world parent comment is correct. check routes on device C. make there is either a default route or a specific route back to A via B.

seeing it now on fdroid.

they are. props, however, for system76 branching out into their in-house hardware.

this resonates so much…

“ok, which one of you crackheads decided an unconstrained recursive C function was a good idea right her… oh.”

this thread is it in a nut shell. the x11/wayland situation can trip things when it really should be super seamless. that will be fixed soon enough.

if you are ok with an Ubuntu base (which these days is drifting further from its Debian base) then regular mint is great.

if forced…

1. Debian stable (or sid if you loathe/love yourself)
2. lmde
3. mint
4. something other than ubuntu
5. …
6. ubuntu

not hating on ubuntu, its just been moving away from where I am at.

the Rust kernel could be many years away from being finished.

the number I saw floating around was 3 years to production useful. regardless, C’s end days as the go-to, large systems level language are drawing nigh.

edit: tear

…that wireless mac is looking suspiciously shopped and non-existent.

understood. tinycore is a live installable distro, so you can still test it on bare metal.

pick the GUI flavor and kick the tires for a while.

the repos are browsable inside the package manager - I would imagine they are browsable outside as well, but I have never had cause to do so.

honestly, give tinycore a shot. fire it up in a VM and take a look around - it really is an amazingly useful distro.

if the install had finished and the installer was simply reading the flash drive to clean itself up, unmount filesystems and reboot, then chances are you are fine. However, as a personal rule I never allow an installation to go into production if there were any unexpected anomalies during installation. its just not worth the risk.

I understand caution when approaching things like secure boot - it can absolutely be abused by monopolies. however… barring inherent or implementation flaws and ensuring that signing keys are under user control it conceptually (and practically) allows for some useful things.
