Nailbar

I recently had some processes lock up on Linux, and after searching what the “D” symbol in ps aux was (Uninterruptable sleep), i found this little line:

The only non-sophisticated way to get rid of them is to reboot the system

I have OpenSuse Tumbleweed, Arch, and some version of Ubuntu. I’ll probably replace Ubuntu with Tumbleweed eventually.

Here me thinking what a theme called Shit Down the Road would look like.

I had to leave Slackware when I got kids. Kubuntu took less time (for me) to get the usual stuff working on.

Kids got older, and Kubuntu was getting annoying, but I didn’t make it back to Slackware because now… I use Arch, btw.

I would totally botch trying to communicate with aliens. How would you have done it?

Add a drop table statement to it while you’re at it

I’ve had about 15% success rate with my attempts at AUR. I don’t have the patience to figure out why things don’t work, I guess. Either ended up with a flatpak, or decided it wasn’t that important to me.

Wobbly Windows is probably the first thing I enable on a fresh system.

Every time.

Ubuntu’s use of Snap made me go back to Arch.

Maybe this time I can get blur behind semi transparent windows to work 🤔

My path have been Slackware > Mint > Kubuntu > Arch > Kubuntu > Arch.

I forsee myself switching between a “care free” distro and Arch many times in the future.

Or add wine before it.

3.something in the late 90’s for me. I remember thinking their version jump from 4.0 to 7.0 was the stupidest thing ever.

Slackware was my first distro I ever properly used.

The comment above claimed only people who never used PHP hate on it. The point was a counter claim to that.

It wasn’t a serious question 🙂

Sounds like you’re talking about good old vi or vim.

Is Ctrl + ⬅️ for typing ‘b’ then?

I was hoping that link would have been an example of what that would look like

Found it. It’s just obfuscated to make it harder to copy.

It looks like it’s decompiled from something, so all the variable names are missing and instead presented with whatever index they had in the binary.

But that’s just a wild guess. I don’t know what actual decompiled code looks like.

Edit: scratch that, it’s just obfuscated code to make it harder to copy.

MicroProse? Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time.
