Funny enough, in Portuguese, the names for the sets are dirty direct translations of the Spanish versions, but applied to the French icons. It didn’t make much sense to me calling a losange “golds”, or a heart “cups”, a leaf “swords”, and a clover leaf “sticks”.

Edit: autocorrupt

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

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,...

Brazilian bars like this sometimes have whimsical illustrations on their walls. This place is playing on the fact that it’s barely anything more than a watering hole, selling cheap alcohol for the locals to inebriate themselves with.

I really, really hate this picture. Everything is wrong with it. The pleading eyes to what can only be assumed is the adult behind the camera makes it extra bad.

I miss the sound themes. The animal theme was really cool with its sounds.

I mean, yeah, don’t ever buy a Mac, but what’s up with the multiple monitors? Do they struggle with it?

acockworkorange ,

If they did that we’d discover a minix system sending your fingerprints to CIA. and we can’t have that now, can we?

acockworkorange ,

Can you get to 2FA with a 4 digit PIN, at least?

The scale is shark > bear > man > moose. Don’t fuck with moose.

Fedora is recognized as the Gnome distro, though. It really is a branding issue.

acockworkorange ,

I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt in that they misspoke when saying trademark. Clearly it’s not that, but those nuances are not universally known.

And branding is not something up to popular vote. It’s, by definition, an image someone or some organization wants to project to the public. To them, they have spins for other DEs/WMs and that’s enough. And why wouldn’t it be?

Yeah, I was pissed when they went away from it. It was great for small screen devices.

The Sign ( lemmy.stuart.fun ) Englisch

For context, in case you don't have kids (therefor you probably don't watch Bluey), the family in the car (the Heelers) was selling their house to move for a job but ultimately, the dad (Bandit) decided staying at their house with family was more important. As a final act of demonstration, he lifts the for-sale sign out of the...

What’s Hashicorp? I’ve looked at OpenTofu’s homepage and their “what’s OpenTofu” section let me with more questions than answers.

acockworkorange ,

Consider they are morons. They did delegate the problem to the person they saw was the expert and implemented the expert’s idea. They didn’t have much patience, but you can’t dispute the delegation.

In the specific use case of kernel programming, maybe. But the Standard Template Library is awesome.

Happens to the best of us. But you improved because of that so there's a silver lining.

My childhood friends started saying that anyone working after noon on Friday is disorganized and I think it's beautiful.

acockworkorange ,

It is. You should try to move to a career where you sell the results of your labor, not the time it takes to achieve them. Easier said than done, I know. Good luck!

acockworkorange ,

Yeah, shouting at your subordinates in public is utter bullshit.

acockworkorange ,

This happened on kernel 3.8, he stepped down on 4.18. That's plenty of time time for as lot more fuckups.

acockworkorange ,

I meant Linus' behavior was a fuckup. And he probably fucked up a lot between this example and his stepping down.

acockworkorange ,

So two wrongs make a right? Or could this have been a civil private email instead? And if civil private conversations aren't working, then it's time to part ways.

acockworkorange ,

Of working with Linus? Yes, it probably did.

acockworkorange ,

Acceptable, yes. But a good manager knows not to shine a spotlight on the mistakes of the team. There's nothing to gain keeping it public that you wouldn't also gain by keeping it private. But your team's morale is kept high if you sing their praises instead of their shortcomings.
