So all Ukraine needs to do is take out the interpreter, replace them with one of their own and boom 30 new troops for the Ukrainian army.

I would bet that most actually happen within close vicinity to a toilet or are at least submitted from one.

Just need to wait long enough to make it three fiddy

On the couple of AUR packages I maintain neglect I have been approached via email to add people as co-maintainers. I don’t always have the time to keep the packages up to date so I was happy to let someone else help out.

Might be something worth looking into rather than an orphan request.

It’s the other way around. Nintendo is a law firm with a game dev hobby.

His ex-wife was Connie Booth who played Polly the maid not Fawlty’s wife in Fawlty Towers, she also co-wrote both series with Cleese.

The lack of backwards comparability is because of the large difference in architecture.

The PS2 was a128 bit custom processor, the PS3 had PS2 hardware in the original fat versions to achieve backwards compatibility, it was dropped to reduce the price.

The PS3 was a 64 bit (I think) custom PowerPC processor.

With the PS4 Sony switched to x86_64 processors making the console essentially a PC with bespoke custom hardware. The PS5 is the same but better speced components as the tech moved on. That’s why the PS4 & 5 are compatible, they are essentially using the same architecture.

Microsoft is a similar story but they went all in on emulation of their old consoles which is why only certain games are allowed, they only allow the ones tested to work with the emulator.

If you really want to learn something, go learn it. What’s stopping you?

Work.

If I don’t work full time I can’t afford to house or feed myself.

Work wipes me out mentally leaving me no mental bandwidth to spend what precious little time I have left to go learn, even if I want to.

I would love to be able to dedicate time to learning like I did when I was at university but even with the government funding available to me I would have to upend my life.

I do spend time doing learning around things that interest me but it is depressing how little bandwidth work leaves for me to do that.

This actually already exists but it’s quite pricey: https://www.eightsleep.com/uk/pod-cover/

So the main part of a computer that controls everything has a specific set of things it can do. Imagine that each of these things can be triggered by a button on a control panel.

Every company making this part of the computer has their own set of things and layout for the buttons to trigger them and you have to pay them money to learn what the things are and how to press the buttons.

RISC-V offers a set of things and a button layout that the community can freely see and use.

In this example a computer program is just the list of instructions saying which buttons to press in what order.

I love this because it means Picard is even more of a bad ass rebel.

If you find it please share, I’d love to take a look, I’m terrible with remembering knots.

I usually go with Train Track, but I’ve had to replace my laces recently while away and could only get ones that were too thick to double up in the eyelets so reverted to Ladder.

I find these very similar in feel to the straight methods but you can get them much tighter. Also depending on the shoes you can hide the verticals for the train track method behind the eyelets which has a distinctive look.

If you like this sort of thing check out Ian’s Shoelace Site, has hundreds of examples of this sort of thing for every scenario possible.

This is starting to feel like their way of blocking Fallout London from releasing indefinitely.

You have forever changed the way I communicate from this day on.

Basically.

I build on my laptop and then add to the repo stored on my NAS.

I’ve also got chaotic-aur set up as they tend to build the bulk of what I need from the AUR so I only have to build the more niche packages I use.

I did something similar with Puppet a while ago, it also runs as root so hot the same problem.

My solution was to set up my own package repo for the AUR packages I needed and just build them periodically. This way I only have to build them once for all the machines.
