!antiquememesroadshow@lemmy.world This time it’s a bit more like archeological memes roadshow, since you can barely see the image, but whatever

Rerun of the same joke from last time :

She lost an eye getting out of spacejail

Great, he’s behaving like John Stewart

I’ll give it a go at some point and get back to you in this thread and share what happened. Thanks for this advice anyway.

Well, that company cashed them in to achieve that stuff. Government Subsidies, like Government Taxes aren’t necessarily a bad thing when used correctly.

thanks so much. The documentation that I’ve glanced just makes it seem so easy, “just replace X with Y and nothing more!”

Let’s be fair, he did work in setting up gigantic batteries and EV charging infrastructure to make Tesla succeed.

He or Tesla. IDFK. He is defo an asshole now, and probably was before too.

I haven’t tried to be honest, since it defeats the entire purpose of fucking around with Guix. I made a few posts on this, but I just fuck around with VMs when I haven’t done a “technical” activity to avoid feeling like a useless jackass, and one of the distros I wanted to learn about is Guix.

If I want to run guix install lxqt I can. But why would I want to use Guix to have a user with a certain desktop environment? I want to be able to set up machines at the drop of a hat that are all the same all the time, and I want the machine to be all the same, not the user.

If it does reconfigure successfully, it just gives a blank screen, or takes me to the terminal login prompt instead of a GUI login prompt.

I tried other things and it fails after hours of downloading packages and building. Does it seem right to you? What do you think I might be missing?

How would you translate Jabberwocky, which is made up entirely of non-existent words? When you translate “Calle Sangre” do you translate it as blood street or “Sangre street”? How about making a chinese adaptation of sherlock holmes? Do you translate the “baker” in “baker street” if you would translate calle sangre as blood street?

There are many decisions that have to be made when adapting a work for a different language, apparently pokemon made those tradeoffs.

Nope. They are configured on Debian and run on arch btw

That’s the fine details of personal situation and preference. I think we have a disagreement on perspective, and I’m glad you pointed out that specific detail, so that others reading our discussion can make a well informed decision.

I still disagree, but not because of a technical level, from my perspective, it’s still roughly the same, we just see “most recent hardware” as being applicable to different people.

And I hope you can feel that you can agree with the idea that it’s a social disagreement and not a technical one.

can you teach me how to make a config file that only has lxqt? I tried the thing below replacing XFCE with LXQT and failed loads, I’m tired of wasting gigs and hours trying to make it work when I’m sleepy.

This is just to run in a VM in Virtual Machine Manager

As a turk this was so fucking disappointing. Like really. This was our THIRD world cup, and every fucking time we fail to qualify because we are a mid tier team and in groups with giants, then face titans in the playoffs and get blown out.

The one time we make it, get placed into a group with other mid teams , then proceed to fail hard against places with barely any football history.

Fucking two out of USA, Australia and Paraguay should have been easy wins for fucks sake. Australia has so many other sports that people go for instead, USA has the same, and Paraguay aren’t that good in the first place.

not because jenkins is super old

I mean, I just updated the wallpaper on that machine to be Ask Jeeves for maximum millennial retro points for when I use it and can tell at a glance which stupid VM I am looking at.

But isn’t this the beauty of Linux? There is an option for everyone. Like you very well put it: you do you.

Yep. I fucking hate current gnome but I’m glad it exists for someone who is into it, and that they are marching to the beat of their own drum. I just don’t want to hear it. I literally made a post on this.

I am curious to find out more about Bunsen Labs.

I’d say that if you’re using such up to date hardware that you need the latest kernels and drivers, you probably don’t need the handholding of mint, so you might want to prefer fedora or arch or smth, and not Mint/Ubuntu.
