Instead of my favorite, which is very well known, I've chosen to promote a different awesome song in an adjacent genre:
Destiny Potato - Addict
Excellent song, and the buildup + guitar solo = chefs kiss
I for one prefer demon linux over fish linux. In fact, that's how I first dipped my toes into the world of unix-ish OSes with FreeBSD 3.3.
Too much attention from the cult elders. "Now they'll give ME the attention I deserve!"
Hopefully this will result in the purity spiral I've been waiting for.
No.
First we need a better system for resource allocation. Monetary systems are extremely inefficient, but they're far better than the "trust me, bro" approach of many of the alternatives.
A global post-scarcity society could in theory take over, similar to how it works in Star Trek, but there are a lot of other hurdles that need to be overcome first.
As long as proper distribution of resources requires an effort, it will also need an incentive to do so. Currently this incentive is provided by allowing for a profit margin, and while this does also provide a mechanism for skimming off the top, at least said skimming can be somewhat controlled by a free market ensuring better circumstances for those willing to skim less.
And those who let both of those camps do their thing as long as they can use it to amass political power and/or wealth.
Get well soon. Nothing (too) serious, I hope?
Tonight: peaceful nothing. Playing Helldivers with some friends both old and new has a high likelihood of happening.
Tomorrow: No plans. Probably watching Resident Alien with my significant other.
Sunday: Packing my work backpack and a suitcase, as I'm leaving on a work trip early Monday morning.
Yes, definitely. It's easier now that I'm part of operational support and can oversimplify it by referring to myself as an IT dude, but back when I was part of the field rotation, when I tried to sum up what "offshore seismic survey technician" is, I was sometimes asked "so, how's it like working on an oil rig?".
I wouldn't know, I've never been on one. I've been on ships around them, but never on the rigs themselves.
This was in 2004 or so. And no, they're not.
In my book WSL and VM share the same downside in that you're only abstracting Linux functionality in relation to the hardware.
Linux really shines when it has full access to the actual hardware as opposed to asking it's environment nicely if it's allowed to do something.
For example, I routinely need to change my IP address to talk to specific networks and network hosts, but having to step over the virtualisation or interpretation layer to do so is just another step, thus removing the advantage of running linux in the first place.
Sure, VMs and dual booting have their uses, but the same uses can be serviced by an actual linux install while also being infinitely more powerful.
I played around with WSL for a while, but you notice really quickly that it is not the real thing. I've used virtual box for some use cases, but that too feels limiting ad all of the hardware you want to fully control is only abstracted.
I would say that unless he has a really good reason why he wouldn't want to go for dual boot, then he should do just that.
Summarized back story of this legendary beauty: When NZ was drawn into WW2, some heroes began thinking of armored defense. Bob Semple decided to make one, making this the best (and only) Kiwi tank ever built.
Valheim. I think the game needs to scale better when playing solo.
The meadow was a simple and chill starter level.
The forest was a lot harder, but still reasonable. I struggled with the boss, but I managed.
There was a plains biome on my way to the swamp, and after checking it out I learned quickly that it's not somewhere I should set foot again for like a million years. It took me quite a few tries (and boats) to get my stuff back.
The swamp was really hard, but I pulled through, mostly by simply avoiding those huge lumbering root-looking monsters. I had to cheese the boss by firing a million arrows from my boat where he couldn't reach me.
I got insta-pasted while searching for silver in the mountains, and it's pretty far from my main base, that's where my body still rests. It's been well over a year since I last launched the game.
It's an incredibly great game, but having to gather all the metal for my gear from scratch is just so demotivating.
