Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•CachyOS Is Now the Most Popular Desktop Distro on ProtonDBEnglish
1·6 months agoDependencies…? I remember accidentally installing entire DEs back in the day because individual packages required their entire native environment. So external maintainers basically had to ‘extract’ some packages from the dependency bundle to make them available without installing the entire native DE. Isn’t that sort of how it still works?

I think they just mean you’d be prompted for a password, which should give you pause if you’re supposed to be deleting items in your home folder.

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Arch users when they discover they contain 98% "bloated" Junk DNA:
4·11 months agoIf you switch your view from the level of the organism to the level of the gene, genes do have backups everywhere. You could call every instance of a gene in every organism a ‘backup’ of the others.
As individual organisms, we also tend to look at genes and evolution from the perspectives of individuals. But for genes already established in a population, preserving any single genome (carried by a single individual) isn’t very important. Genes work instead to increase their overall frequency throughout the population.
So to adapt the technological metaphor, maybe you’re better off looking at the entire gene pool as your system instead of the organism.

JF uses south of 480 mb right now on my rpi4 2gb when idling. It plays fine too, though struggles with transcoding.
