I like to think that people, on the whole, are becoming more accepting of those that are different.
I don’t know how true that is, and there’s certainly loud arseholes out there, but maybe the common non-chronically-online person is more welcoming than 10 years ago.
Just as an fyi: If you want people to read huge blocks of text like this, please break it into paragraphs.
Worth noting that if you’re trying to block telemetery or ads or things like that, using an adblocking dns is probably the better option. Either through a pihole on your network or some online adblocking dns.
Other than that, if you’re looking for one because you think you “need” one, don’t worry too much if it’s just a personal computer connected to a router. Most distros ship with sensible defaults for security.
If you actually want to use a firewall, block all incoming and allow all outgoing is a reasonable rule of thumb if you aren’t running a server. Note that “block incoming” doesn’t block connections that the system itself started.
Wonder if we’ll have another good ol’ browser war when/if Ladybird releases.
Yeah, was more poking fun of people who cling to the while Unix Philosophy stuff like it’s some unwritten rule that must be followed.
I honestly think there’s tons of Linux software that could be broadly defined as “multiple things”.
Even looking at the links other responders have posted, I even think a lot of linux software is made up of components which are tightly coupled together.
Praise be the Unix Philosophy. May all your projects do precisely one thing, and let they not be tempted by forbidden fruit and do two things.
I used to use Super to open the application selector menu thing (similar to the start menu on my system). But I recently tweaked my keyboard shortcuts to add a bunch of ones using Super for application switching and stuff, so rebound it to Super+w.
Pure stubborness and a fear of death.
“I hate systemd, it’s bloated and overengineered” people stay, perched precariously on their huge tower of shell scripts and cron jobs.
I managed to get an Oral B one for cheap, and it’s been doing me fine. Maybe there are better brands, maybe there aren’t, but it does the job.
Honestly, what might be better than the toothbrush itself is the timer in it. Forces me to do the full 2 minutes rather than me stopping after 30secs or so.
Ignoring the consent issue, you are going to waste a lot of vaccine. And you can’t measure dosage very well, so may end up over or underdosing people. Not to mention people might have allergies or side effects which you’d need to account for.
It’s why we switched to chemtrails for distributing the gay pathogen.
If you’re worried about stability, I think the NTFS driver will probably be more widely used and tested than WinBTRFS. Of course, nothing is 100% bug free, and disks can fail at any time for no reason. Instead of looking for a stable filesystem, I’d suggest setting up backups such that a random failure every few years doesn’t cause everything to be lost.
Raise a child on their own without any exposure to language. Could be interesting to see how their perspective on the world develops.
Check /etc/skel/.bashrc
, if it’s in there as well, it was set up by your distro.
What it does is check for the existence of ~/.bashrc.d
and, if it finds one, sources all the files inside it. This effectively means that you can create script files like ~/.bashrc.d/myfile.sh
and they will have the same effect as if they had been put directly into .bashrc
. Some people prefer having one file for each “bashrc thing” whilst some prefer just having one big file. Ultimately it’s personal preference.
Yeah, I’m kinda envious of people who are like "yeah, I post nude furries on my bluesky, deal with it. I have this fear that someone will “find out” and my personal and professional life will be ruined… Or I make a massive faux pas or something.
Getting dangerously close to actually having a ref sheet. I downloaded a free to use lineart and am slowly tweaking the lineart and filling it in.
I was going to use it as a rough guide along with some written text to an (as of yet unfound) artist to make me a real ref sheet… But now I’m wondering if I’d be able to use it as is…
My character does have a rather large “mane” which I’ll need to lineart myself, so we’ll see how that goes, I guess.
… I’m also wondering how much to go “horny on main” and stop hiding my nsfw accounts. :D
Lemmy is not your doctor and you shouldn’t take medical advice from us. If it’s possible where you live, try to get in touch with a family planning clinic (or whatever the local name would be). They can get you some sti tests and give better advice than we can. You aren’t the first person to have unprotected sex, and you won’t be the last.
Ehhh… Disagree. It allows the scene to linger on the anxiety, which helps the pacing.
