It’s enjoyable if you watch it in the context of it’s time. You can’t compare it to the Villeneuve version.

Matt Keeslar. He played Feyd in the 2000 miniseries.

I love i3wm. Incredibly lightweight and minimalistic.

I know how it feels man. Every time I try to sell bootleg DVDs from the trunk of my car, the cops shut me down. Big copyright is just killing the free market, I say.

Gibberish? That’s poetry. I sang it to Billy Joel’s ‘We Didn’t Start the Fire’

How do I subscribe for more garlic facts?

I always pronounce it “fezzik” like Andre the Giant’s character from The Princess Bride.

LFS (Linux from Scratch)

Get a load of this guy - he’s got ladies just coming up and talking to him.

I think I’d like my money back

The script just does all the actions that you would otherwise be manually typing in the terminal. When it’s finished, you have the same minimal environment as if you’d done it manually, but with less work.

Exactly. And the archinstall script makes it almost as easy as Ubuntu. I think this comic is obsolete.

You might want to check out the i3 tiling window manager. Shit’s under 50MB and makes every other DE I’ve ever used feel bloated and laggy.

Inspecting the file with a hex editor would give you lots of useful info in this case. If you know approximately what the data should look like, you can just see where the garbage (header) ends and the data starts. I’ve reverse engineered data files from an oscilloscope like this.

The main benefit is that when people get tired of distro flame wars, they can move on to init system flame wars.

I use a combination of both. Objects are declared const, all members are set in the constructor, all methods are const. It doesn’t really work for some types of programs (e.g. GUIs) but for stuff like number crunching it’s great.

My current and all-time favorite laptop is an older MacBook Air (Intel) running Arch Linux. The quality of Apple hardware combined with Linux is unbeatable. I can’t wait until we get a reliable Linux distro that runs on Apple silicon.

This is the trust-fall of Poe’s law.

Some projects achieve total perfection and require no more support. No, I can’t name any.
