Standing still for too long? Go to jail for loitering.

Crossing the street? Go to jail for jaywalking?

Existing next to a cop? Arrested for resisting arrest, straight to jail.

Have any money on you? Money is arrested for looking suspicious.

Easiest? More like... The only way.

My teacher explained as sqrt(poop^2) = abs(poop). Yes, he wrote poop on the blackboard.

You can't hard link across docker volumes. In the second example, you need to remove the /media/movies and /media/downloads volumes, only keep /media.

After fixing this, only future downloads will be hard links. Use a deduplication tool like jdupes to create hard links for the already downloaded files.

Ah, the neighbor starter kits

First couple of minutes would be nice to catch up with world events. I would take some time to find money making strategies, like learning what to invest in, or what about to buy. If the person has any knowledge about some revolutionary technology, it would be nice to learn about it. Maybe we could use the knowledge to advance mankind. I would also want to learn about things to watch out for. Maybe I should move to some other country because the one I'm in goes to shit.

Foldables are just an expensive compromise between phones and tablets. For the same amount of money you can buy both, a phone and a tablet, which will last a lot longer.

Yes, that could work. I just switched to Google Messages which, other than being from Google, is pretty good.

Pulse is shit now, it's been acquired by a sketchy company.

Age of Empires 2. Love the game, but I'm terrible at it... I can barely beat the medium AI. I was defeated in pretty much every online match.

Jellyfin or Plex media server on the NAS.

To view content, there are several options. Both servers have client apps for various platforms, this usually provides the most features and best experience. Another option is using a browser, both come with an integrated web server. The third option is through DLNA, which is a protocol for media streaming that many players already support, but it may be a bit more limited.

I think video platforms should be hosted by the government, like public libraries. They are very difficult to run at a profitable rate, and YouTube is basically a monopoly in this space. But it has an incredible value to society.

What are you going to use it for? You have to give us more details, a vague question will lead to generic answers that will probably not be the best choice for you.

You haven't used Ubuntu Server... The resolv.conf is managed by the network manager (NetworkManager if I recall correctly). But if you configure the DNS in NM it won't survive the reboot because there is another layer on top, cloudinit.

A dishwasher... For a family, it saves a huge amount of time and water.

Kindle hardware is shit. It's built extremely cheaply, and it's not made to be repaired. I have a Kindle with a broken display, asked Amazon support if it is possible to replace it, they said it's not and they don't sell parts.

So let me get this straight. You buy Phillips Hue devices because they work offline. Then they change how the devices you bought function making them only work online forcing you to create an account and allow them to collect data.

This should not be legal. This is a breach of contract, they modified the contract after you already signed it (by buying the device). If they want to do this, they should offer full refunds to anyone that wants to exit the contract, or only apply the changed to new devices.

Wow, that's exactly what I have been missing in my life. Amen, brother!

What I think the biggest problem with the traditional package managers is that (1) they don't isolate packages from each other (when you install a program files are placed in many random places, like /usr/bin, /usr/lib etc) and (2) you can't have multiple versions of the same package installed at the same time.

This creates a lot of work for package maintainers who need to constantly keep packages up to date as dependencies are updated.

Also, because of this, every distro is essentially an insane dependency tree where changing even one small core package could break everything.

Because of this, backwards compatibility on Linux is terrible. If you need to run an older application which depends on older packages, your only choice is to download an older distro.

This is what snap and flatpak try to solve. I think they are not great solutions, because they ended up being an extra package manager next to the traditional package managers. Until we see a distro that uses flatpak or something similar exclusively, the problem is not solved.

Also renamed xml, renamed json and renamed sqlite.
