@mikoto
do you prefer a written tutorial or a videotutorial?

@rin
maybe those who have it moved to US, and those without it stayed in Asia? :P

@nytpu god this is so fucked up.

Whatever happened to UTF-8's original design goals.

It's one thing for UTF-8 to say that o (U+006f) + ̄(U+0304) should be displayed as ō, but they're still separate codepoints. With that, I could still claim "user error".
But when they say that U+006f followed by U+0304 is equivalent to some other codepoint, breaching the abstraction layers... I have to say Unicode is unsupported.

@ariadne and the problem is that these two sentences are a mutually-self-fulfilling prophecy.

Every time an Xlibre user shouts "Wayland is RedHat's conspiracy to enslave us", one GNOME developer becomes a tyrant.

Every time a GNOME developer says "We killed X11 on purpose", one Xlibre user becomes a conspiracy theorist.

@ariadne right, and some people may reasonably disagree on which technology is best and decide to use a different distro that uses a different technology.

It only gets weird when someone says "those other people are evil tyrants and who trying to coerce us to using their favourite technology"

and then suddenly someone from the other side says
"those people are evil conspiracy theorists and you shouldn't use their software because using it will make you evil as well"

docker build:
is inherently idempotent - it will just reuse a cached image if the source hasn't chnaged

ideal ansible module for docker build:
runs docker build anyway, checks if actually had to rebuild anything, reports status accordingly

actual ansible module for docker build:
"The only idempotence check is whether the built image already exists. This check can be disabled with the rebuild option."

:blobfacepalm:

@BrodieOnLinux
you don't even have red hair

@piggo try installing different versions of Xen until you find a version that works :P

@lynnesbian
I heard of a different 321 rule:

After 3 HDDs you had to dd_rescue

each time taking 2 days to get your computer back up and running

the next computer you set up should maybe have backups from day 1

if you can think of the perfect way to do backups before you start using it

@hj
@rin
I thought that was 1.5 G

imagine python but like, backwards-compatible

@quad @loke @simon_m
Brodie has been reading the mailing lists and seems to have come to a similar conclusion.

I've read a few threads, and it seems to Kent, making things easy for bcachefs users is a holy end that justifies all means.

It kinda looks like:
- I need this to help my user recover from filesystem corruption
- we have a system, it says you have to wait for the next release
- but your system is stupid, in this case it doesn't have any benefit

@quad @simon_m
yeah, basically there's a rule:

only bugfixes after -rc1
features wait for merge window

and Kent notoriously submits features after -rc2 or even later in the release cycle

@simon_m @quad
it has been

but also

Linus has threatened to remove bcachefs from mainline on at least 2 occasions

@BrodieOnLinux is this the same person that claimed responsibility for DDoSng All Things Linux?

Does anyone know what's the cheapest way to obtain the text of the EN IEC 62040 standard?

Or maybe some summary / educational material based on it?

I'm not planning to make a UPS or anything, just curious what's the contract between a UPS and the grid it's connected to.

@cjd omg this is beautiful

@cjd it has a bit of maxwell's deamon vibes

what the hell? Does TWRP's encryption work?
