Exhibit #1 of why every vote counts and every voter is needed.

That's the thing, though. Nobody's stealing his work.

His work being the prompt.

I tried dual-booting Win10 and Arch for a few months. It was problematic.

I had to set the clock every time I switched because one expected the hardware clock to use UTC time and the other expected local time.

NTFS on Linux is not good. The driver works, but there are fundamental differences between NTFS and Unix-like filesystems that makes cooperation difficult (e.g. NTFS uses ACLs instead of the user/group ownership and user/group/others permissions of Unix). Windows also places additional restrictions on the filesystem (e.g. NTFS supports file names that contain :, Windows doesn't) that can completely bork the volume if violated.

But the worst offender, and what made me nuke Windows entirely, is Windows Update. It completely fucked up the boot partition, deleted the bootloader, then died and left Windows unusable.

These are all issues that can be solved, if you know how to solve them. My advice is to go cold turkey and delete Windows from your life.

Leah Rowe probably hasn't stopped laughing since this was published.

The borzoi is what happens when you describe a dog to someone who's only ever seen horses and ask them to draw it.

"Oh, it's not from electrocution. If you fuck with the tram, the driver will get out and break your spine in half."

I've met some tram drivers who would absolutely chase down and beat the piss out of some pedestrians who don't understand that the rail infrastructure is the rail vehicle's domain, if given the chance.

I wonder how many of those people are children of immigrants.

(although, in a broader view, probably all of them are at least descendants of immigrants)

It is what it is.

This is a simple shader node group that breaks up the visual repetition of tiled textures. It uses a Voronoi texture's cell colors to apply a random translation and/or rotation to an image texture's vector input to produce an irregular pattern.

I primarily made it for landscape materials. The cells' borders are still sharp, so certain materials, like bricks, wood, or fabric, will not look good.

For example, drilling or enlarging a hole can be boring, but fixing two pieces of metal together is often riveting.

 

It's a poor imitation. A mockery of the name. A GUI addict's idea of a CLI tool.

Not entirely accurate, the person on the side track should be a pile of money, but I'm too lazy to change it now. Also, imagine, like, flames coming from the bottom-right corner.

 

I recently switched from wireless to wired headphones (Samson SR-850, probably the best for the very reasonable price) and my chair's wheels instantly started eating its cable. Right now I'm using a small plastic hook that came with a face mask to keep it off the floor, but I'd like to hear other solutions.

 

I use this in Hyprland to quickly switch between the headphone jack and a USB wireless dongle. Executing the script will show a dialog that lists all available audio sinks, with the active sink selected. It requires pulseaudio or pipewire-pulse for the pactl program, and kdialog for the dialog.

I think Starfield's main menu is neat. So I made it into a desktop widget. Files (including the stylized logo) here, wallpaper here.

I used the Chakra Petch font (AUR: ttf-chakra-petch) for the menu buttons, and Liberation Sans (with some editing in Inkscape) for the logo.
