No questions on how to exit vim 🤔 🤨?

Crashumbc ,

I haven't used vim since collage (I'm currently a aarp member) isn't it "cntrl-x" ?

ReveredOxygen ,
@ReveredOxygen@sh.itjust.works avatar

that is nano

Crashumbc ,

Pretty sure nano didn't exist in 93' oh well

gentooer ,

But pico did and nano is built to emulate pico.

Hapbt ,
@Hapbt@mastodon.social avatar

@gentooer @Crashumbc isnt pico built to emulate wordstar or something like that?

Crashumbc ,

You're way past my knowledge. I'm not a programmer by trade. I just hack shit occasionally :p

gentooer ,

I'm afraid that's from before my time. I'm born in 1996 and didn't have internet before 2008. I think my first Linux install was Ubuntu 12.04 from a CD-ROM.

loudWaterEnjoyer ,
@loudWaterEnjoyer@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Because the people are stuck in VIM

bhamlin ,

From another terminal:

ps ax | grep vim | awk '{print $1}' | xargs -- kill -9

nogrub ,

the only way to exit vim is to unplug your pc

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Correct!

rxin ,

How do I exit vmacs?? my coworker must have played s joke on me

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

You press the X button.

What does sudo apt-get do?

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

The Asynchronious Packaging Template simply collects shit from other people that were kind enough to make that shit for apt. The get part is recursive, it tries numerious times till it gets what it wants.

Hazrod ,

Why do Linux users hate Nvidia?

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Because Nvidia hates Linux users. They're just returning the favor.

Tartas1995 ,

That is surprisingly accurate

VinesNFluff ,
@VinesNFluff@pawb.social avatar

That's literally just correct. Are you sure you don't know your Linux lore?

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

I know nothing!

Lemmy.

Evil_Shrubbery ,

Lemmy Kowalski, the famous musician-engineer??

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

No, Lemmy Kilmister.

Evil_Shrubbery ,

Yes, that was the "musician" part of the reference. The engineer part was to bring it back to bird form.

Resol ,
@Resol@lemmy.world avatar

Wait, I plan on entering the music industry too, with the exact username that I use on this site. What if people accuse me of copying Mr Kilmister? Am I gonna be remembered as an absolute piece of shi-

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

You can always catch them off guard by using the Lemmy logo as an avatar 😉.

Resol ,
@Resol@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, no.

The avatar I'm currently using is actually related to my username in one way or another. Just do a reverse image search, and then spell the first word of my username backwards and you'll understand what I mean.

So I'm basically a loser from the fediverse.

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Well, you'd be the first loser musician, I can tell you that much 👍.

What is the best distro and why is it Debian?

0x4E4F OP , (edited )
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Because Debbie is a woman, and we all know why Ian made it the best distro, happy wife happy life.

foggianism ,

My favorite Metallica song is Seek an Destro.

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Seek and Distro 🤨?

eldain ,

That is true! I assume Debra had Debbie as a nickname sometimes, full points.

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

All Debras are called Debbie.

Is this the year of linux?

laurelraven ,

I think that's 2038

lseif ,

wrong! its this year, for real this time

uis ,
@uis@lemmy.world avatar

That would be second year of Unix

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Probably... maybe... not sure...

KISSmyOS ,

It's close. Last year, 49.3% of Pornhub visits were made from a Linux-based OS.
BSD-based systems were 46.7%, for a total Unix-like market share of 96%.

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Which basically means that all geeks do is watch porn 🤨?

Well, I do, but I didn't expect there were so many.

KISSmyOS ,

It just means 94% watch porn on phones.

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

I know, I was trying to be funny, ha ha ha 😂... oh well, the moment passed 😒.

Rustmilian ,
@Rustmilian@lemmy.world avatar

No. It's the the year of the Dinux Lesktop.

CaptPretentious ,

What are the important, distinguishing differences between RHEL8 and REHL9 one should probably know.

laurelraven ,

One is divisible by 3 and not 2, and the other is divisible by 2 and not 3

This is very important when checking if your software packages are compatible

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Correct!

loudWaterEnjoyer ,
@loudWaterEnjoyer@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Explain this

laurelraven ,

That is a high compatibility version for when you need to work with many different softwares at once

loudWaterEnjoyer ,
@loudWaterEnjoyer@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

But it's 4.5, which is like (9 ÷ 2) so that kinda contradicts your first statement, doesn't it?

laurelraven ,

Not at all! Since it's half of 9, it can therefore work with half of the software RHEL 9 is compatible with, but since the 4 is also divisible by 2, it can handle all of that software as well.

It's really quite simple, I don't see how this could be confusing at all...

Pantherina ,

What is a Distro?

laurelraven ,

I don't recommend them, they just cause arguments online

0x4E4F OP , (edited )
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

A distro is a set of applications preinstalled on a Linux kernel that don't seem to work as expected. Debugging tools usually don't come preinstalled with the distro.

HarryS ,

it is a tribe, they have conflicting ideas and ideologies apart from that Linux and FOSS is great, everything else is contestable. There is a hierarchy in the tribes with strong links to there initiation ritual. You are free to change tribe as much as you want or even be in multiple tribes but when war breaks out you must defend your tribe.

I am in the Arch, Debian and Alpine tribes.

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

They allowed you in all of them 😱? You sneaky devil, I bet you hide you're in the other tribes 😏.

How do I change the language to EN-US on redstar os?

ccdfa ,

Follow up: how to change to french on templeOS?

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

You have to recode the kernel in french.

Threeme2189 ,

Recompile le kernel

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Oui.

spookedbyroaches ,

In the locale picker it's called YEE-HAW not EN-US 👍

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

You don't. It's designed to be unchagable. Only the supreme leader can change that.

How do you reverse the bit-stream scalar using the systemd fractional scaling initializer?

stoicmaverick ,

There's an EMACS plugin to do it.

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

You remove the scalar with pliers, then do some welding work on the initilalizer to get it to the proper shape (systemd is known to have unstandard sizes of shape and size plugs). Then, you chop the bit-stream into single bits and insert them one by one into the initializer, hold them there, then plug the initializer in systemd and let the bits fall in it. EZ

What are programmer socks?

makunamatata ,

They are soft material artifacts that protect and warm up the programmer’s feet.

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

They're socks that programmers usually wear when they're out, not programming, because everyone needs socks when they go out. But, programmers felt underappreciated if their socks are called just like everyone elses socks, so they changed their name by adding programmer in front.

I'd like you to guess which one of these is fake:

  1. How do I install Hyprland on NixOS using Flakes?

  2. How do I install systemd-dispatcher on Void Linux RC?


Edit:

OP has answered, the answer is

that the second one is fake, the first one is real.

ook_the_librarian ,
@ook_the_librarian@lemmy.world avatar

Whichever one is fake could be real tomorrow.

makunamatata ,

There is always an alternate reality

AVincentInSpace ,

do you have any idea the shitstorm that would go down in the Void Linux forums

thecrotch ,

Is it anything like the daily shit storm in every Linux community?

unlawfulbooger ,

You’re good. I know one of these is definitely real, but the other one is plausible enough to make me think both are real

cyanarchy ,
@cyanarchy@sh.itjust.works avatar

If you didn't tell me one of these were fake I would never have questioned it.

ook_the_librarian ,
@ook_the_librarian@lemmy.world avatar

Honestly, just because one is nonsense, it wouldn't mean it's fake. I've read help forums.

renzev ,

Not OP but I know which one is fake because I remember actually doing the other one haha

0x4E4F OP ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

They are both fake. Neither of them show up any results on google searches.

PoolloverNathan ,

...Neither?
