Props to Alpine and Kali for disabling this bullshit out of the box (lemmy.world)

Context for newbies: Linux refers to network adapters (wifi cards, ethernet cards, etc.) by so called "interfaces". For the longest time, the interface names were assigned based on the type of device and the order in which the system discovered it. So, eth0, eth1, wlan0, and wwan0 are all possible interface names. This, however,...

Arch is too well made to be made by reddit. While redditors are drawn to it, they could never have actually made it themselves.

Those damn imperialists providing weapons to a sovereign country in order to protect itself from it's imperialist neighbor trying to annex it!

JackRiddle ,

Some clients allow you to filter posts with specific words in the title, so you can filter out posts with heathcliff

If it is a matter of survival, sure. But if it is a luxury, like it is for many of the people who consume the most?

JackRiddle ,

Afaik, we could produce food way more efficiently if we did not produce meat. Meat takes a lot of land, food, water and energy, because the animals use a lot of the energy they are fed in the form of crops just to live. That doesn't all get converted to meat. In terms of pure energy, being vegan is way more efficient.

JackRiddle ,

If that's your interpretation of this post, sure.

JackRiddle ,

Listen mate, I know you really don't like to be challenged on the ethics of something that you really don't want to change, but most of the replies here seem to be civil and pretty well-informed discussions. You knew that a lot of vegans and vegetarians would show up under a post about animals being gassed, you could have scrolled down if that made you uncomfortable, or written actual arguments for your current beliefs, but instead you decided to write replies that add nothing to the conversation, making you the insufferable twat.

Ps: yes, I know this is an insufferable reply. I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself. Have a nice day!

JackRiddle ,

I feel like the vitriol also in large part comes from this. A lot of people know that it is unethical and wrong but in order to acknowledge that they would either have to change their behaviour radically or acknowledge that according to their own morals they are bad people. Most people can pretend that they don't really have a choice or can't really change, but when they meet someone who has made these radical changes, they get confronted with the reality and get instantly defensive in order to keep the illusion intact that they are "morally good", taking out their own insecurity on the person that made the choice that they haven't made.

JackRiddle ,

Can we stop being intersectional? Can we stop doing other things? Can we stop caring about issues? Can we regress? Can we regress? Can we regress?

JackRiddle ,

Arch is great, but not very beginner friendly. It might be better to start with somethin debian-based like linux mint, and install arch once you get used to using the commandline and know where to find answers to your questions etc.

JackRiddle ,

Idk, but I can recommend you a few that are less usable

JackRiddle ,

Anywhere where meat is not subsidised tto hell?

JackRiddle ,

We are at a solar maximum, and we're supposed to go down now. But we aren't. We're going up.

Dat is geen nederlands, vriend

That's not dutch, friend

JackRiddle ,

Pretty sure that was the intention¹

¹I mean... it has a footnote and everything

Do not set up your entire config in one file please, break that shit up

But I do love nixos(I am the person in the image)

Fifth glyph found in your post, a hitman is approaching your location

Modification: wording is now good-ish

Waltz, bad nymph is great, I will use that in the future

JackRiddle ,

House of leaves, a good book you should read a physical copy of

JackRiddle ,

The page layout and other features of the book are unique, and it doesn't really carry over well to an ebook or audiobook

JackRiddle ,

You seem to agree with the post, so why does your comment read like you are trying to show you are superior to it?

JackRiddle ,

No but you see I, a stranger on the internet, agree with the message of the post. Therefore, it must be correct, as one is unable to lie on the internet lest their shins be removed by the cyberpolice.

JackRiddle ,

Recent but a slightly oldschool kind of recent. No slick guis or clean corporate layouts here, just ancient hardware controlled with a terminal.

JackRiddle ,

Please do remember that the banking industry provides banking for the entire world, instead of ~ten thousand people. It does cost a lot of energy, yes, but the energy per person is far less than with any cryptocurrency.

JackRiddle ,

The poor get poorer and the rich get richer because of the economical system we live under, not because of the banking industry. Crypto isn't going to solve that.

I agree that banks are not to be trusted, but a blockchain hasn't proven to be a safe option either.

You also just skipped over my comment. I take that means that you acknowledge that crypto is extremely wasteful and would never scale unless gigantic changes were made to how it functions?

JackRiddle ,

I think there is only like one gendered species of trees left, if I remember correctly. Their dad's a neither/both.

JackRiddle ,

Sure, but they weren't as militarised back then. They were violent pieces of shit with sticks rather than machineguns.

JackRiddle ,

Pedophiles are not a sexual minority, they are people who need professional help so that they don't harm children.

Objectively the most based organisation in the scp world

Trying to get head from the 4chan ai.

JackRiddle ,

Is that legal? When you sign onto a proprietary platform you usually sign away your rights, but with lemmy this isn't the case, so scraping your data to use to train AI would violate copyright laws, right?

JackRiddle ,

They could, and we couldn't stop them, but I think they legally couldn't use content from other instances or even from users from other instances. Not that that will stop them, of course.

JackRiddle ,

My steps for looking up something are usually

  1. Check the arch wiki
  2. Check the gentoo wiki
  3. Search for something related to my own distro
  4. Search for anything else
  5. Cry
JackRiddle ,

I actually had to use the transcript this time, the font and colors are aweful.

JackRiddle ,

Does anyone have that one deranged response on this from some random tumblr blog about how this is actually brainwashing us to accept abuse from authority figures or whatever?
