It’s all subjective and based on your personal level of interest. From a technical standpoint the time needed is based on how fast your computer can compile everything, how fast you read and understand the instructions, and how much effort you want to put into it.

So yeah, a weekend could be reasonable.

Or they’re bored. I’ve done Linux From Scratch before. It’s fun. It’ll teach you a lot about building and maintaining a distro.

Do it. Take a weekend, and indulge yourself.

Ahem.

That just made this 1000x funnier. Thank you!

Oh god. That is so me. Always with the “if only” mentality. If only ________ then I could do ________.

And of course, it never gets done. 😅

This is the equivalent of a woodworker building jigs and other tools with their thousands-of-dollars of equipment.

Source: me. I do this. 😬

As is a lot of other countries. It’s a growing trend that should alarm everyone.

And countries like Russia, North Korea, and China should all serve as examples of what happens when ruling parties get their way.

For clarification: they will only remove the tile, not the copilot app. They state it’s non-removable, and say it’s not a service that runs.

However, my concern is what is to stop Microsoft (or LG) from enabling it in the future?

The point isn’t whether it’s needed or not. It’s not about space or features. The point is that a major player made a design decision and bucked the system. And while there may still be some phones with audio jacks, the majority of mainstream phones don’t. That major player is still successful, and other companies followed suit.

Can we agree this is what should happen to HDMI. No?

🤦‍♂️

There would be uproar, but like the audio jack on phones people would come around. All it would take is one big enough company to pull it off, and the rest would follow.

This wouldn’t work to scale. If Valve paid to license the spec for the Linux kernel, it would have to pay for every person who downloaded the driver, which is far more than the amount of people who buy the Steam Cube.

Unless of course you’re suggesting that the kernel driver for the new spec become closed source.

If you haven’t already found it, you need to change your global git config (~/.gitconfig):

git config --global init.defaultBranch main

(or whatever you want to call it; e.g. daddy would work too)

For any existing repositories you want to run the following command in the existing repository root (./.git/config):

git config set init.defaultBranch main

I haven’t used Twitter in so many years (long before that shithead stepped through the doors holding a sink). 🤷‍♂️

Those comments. 🤮

Is it even a bar (standard) anymore of it’s low enough to be laying on the ground?

Don’t forget AI, for a toilet.

A billionaire who didn’t pay the bills?

I don’t know which would be more appropriate: shocked Pikachu, or shocked Futurama Fry?

Color me curmudgeon, but automated dependency updates should never be a consideration.

Also, one thing I do like that Github does is that it can be configured to send you a report of dependency changes (in yarn, for example).

When I see these generation-hating comments — specifically older generations hating on something the younger generations do — I can’t help but think about whose fault it is for whatever slight the older generation feels.

Who created digital clocks? Who created iPads and iPhones? Who created video games? Every single generation has their own slang that each previous generation fails to understand (not because it doesn’t make sense, but because the previous generations are too lazy and/or stubborn to learn).
