I had a VM but somehow the virtual drive got corrupted? And it wouldn’t let me install, update or uninstall VC++ runtime as a result. I’m gonna try again later, but it’s a worrying start.

The point of use flags is to make it so if you don’t want to print, every package that would otherwise pull in CUPS as a dependency can be compiled without it. Stuff like that.
Gentoo also has a good system for handling multiple concurrent installs of different versions of some packages, e.g python.
If there’s software you want to install from source that uses automake it’s pretty simple to build your own package for it.
Very much a system for doing things your way, and a good way to learn linux IMO. To that end, no there is no installer, but the process is not that complex. Boot a live USB, partition and format a drive, download and extract a base system, install a kernel (there is a fits-most-needs one available now), install a bootloader. Reboot into your new system and continue installing what you need from there.
No, you`re right.
This looks like a python programmer that is mad they have to write C# Java…
I am not gonna lie, a part of me wonders if it was staged or set up somehow by his own side, or just a sufficiently deranged right-winger hoping to galvanize support for Senor Orange here…
Whenever I read something on the lines of X`s new Y, I think of Curt’s new hat.
No problem! To expand further, I am 99% certain it would be perfectly viable to have a single disk volume group and just take advantage of LVM’s ability to create, resize and delete virtual partitions on the fly. I think you could also put all your disks into a single volume group, then ask it to not spread your logical volumes across multiple disks, if you wanted to. Could get a bit fiddly though.
You are correct, LVM combines 1 or more disks into 1 or more storage pools that can then be allocated out to logical volumes as needed.
If you just up and pull a disk from a pool (volume group), you’re gonna have a bad time. You can, however, migrate the “extents” allocated to that physical disk to another in order to replace the disk, and your logical volumes can be set up with RAID-like redundancy. There’s a lot of options on how to manage it.
IMO you should use LVM2 or one of the high level filesystems that have similar features, and then dynamically create partitions and mount them as needed. E.g. Suddenly need 50G for a new VM image? Make a partition and mount it where you need the space.
I would like to use IPv6 but google and MS are having a dick waving contest with competing implementations, as I understand it. So fuck it.
See also “ornitho” (relating to birds) and “pter” (wing) creating the term ornithopter for a heavier than air vehicle that flies by flapping its wings. Famously seen in Dune, but I think also back in the day people actually tried to make them, long before aircraft existed.
Something like this, I assume. :/
The antagonist of Cataclysm is actually legitimately scary.
It was a strong point of the original and Cataclysm…
NGL I kinda want a Polestar.
Huh, didn’t know that. Even if he ended up going to jail (hahaha), he’d still be eligible?
Is there still gonna be a debate? Didn’t Trumpo just get convicted on 34 felony charges? Surely that disqualifies him from running. (Not a USian so I dunno)
I never liked the idea of my “likes” being a browsable list. What’s the point of retweeting, if likes are browsable?
Glad it 's finally changing. Broken clock, I guess.
I’ve had another try, this time I set chattr +C on the image directory just in case my using btrfs was causing issues.
