CarrotsHaveEars@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Realizing Arch isn't for me after updating broke VLC46·15 hours agoThe closest to Arch, a rolling cutting edge distro, is probably
openSUSE TumbleweedVoid Linux.
CarrotsHaveEars@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Recommend a simple, small cheap laptop < 15" I can chuck in my bag for use in coffee shops!11·1 day agoI would argue that if brew is installed on a Mac, chances are, OP won’t even notice it’s Mac OS, unless he looks into the detail or having some specific Linux use case. OP only mentioned writing some C programs.
Until the new Temporal API comes along, there are some libraries we can use.
- luxon
- dayjs
- or compile chrono (Rust) to WebAssembly
CarrotsHaveEars@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Europe is slowly ditching Microsoft: why it's happening & why it could fail.2·4 days agoI don’t. This is how it looks like on my Voyager.
Point is (again), it takes zero effort to cross post a video or article here. Windows is historically having a high market share ratio, and people are migrating to Linux nowadays. That’s good news to the Linux world. Even someone merely mentioning ditching Windows has an implication of adopting Linux instead.
But what if more and more posts implying this by only mentioning how bad Windows is? Is this a community for Windows circlejerk, or do we share informative stuff that’s directly related to Linux? How about we share more article about how great Linux is (or can be), instead of how bad the competitors are becoming?
CarrotsHaveEars@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Europe is slowly ditching Microsoft: why it's happening & why it could fail.2·4 days agoWhat’s wrong with going back to pen and (e-)paper for office? My point is, if you are going to post something in the community, the word “linux” shall at least be in the title.
Good title example: Europe is slowly ditching Microsoft for Linux
It’s nobody’s fucking business when someone ditching Microsoft, then adopt BSD, Solaris whatnot. What matters to this community is someone adopting or ditching Linux, or they do something remotely related to it.

You can also wake up the original Stram Deck with USB if you don’t mind.
Why does every one need to compare every distro to NixOS? We get it. It’s neat. It’s immutable. It’s indestructible. But they are fundamentally different stuffs.
CarrotsHaveEars@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Windows seemingly lost 400 million users in the past three years — official Microsoft statements show hints of a shrinking user baseEnglish152·14 days agoThey would have way higher ratio of supporters if they stayed at XP or 7, and just keep security patching it but no, they deliberately sabotaged their star product with Vista, 8, 10, and 11. They deserved it.
CarrotsHaveEars@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Researching making the switch from Windows on my main PC and I have questions.111·15 days agoSince OP uses it for freelance business, self-hosting and stuff, I recommend even one step further, by a new computer and try to replicate all workflows there. Don’t fuck with the old one until one day OP suddenly noticed that he hasn’t booted his old computer for one year, then he can sell it as parts.
You dislike mosquitos all you want. Some species rely on them. There’s always something. They exist for a reason.
Alternatively you can just install screen doors, wear long sleeves, and use mosquito repellent.

Or burning gasoline, natural gas, trash, anything.

Ah, so I see you switched to Linux and made the time travel. Cheers.
CarrotsHaveEars@lemmy.mlto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Thunderbird email client makes connections to sites that have nothing to do with sending and receiving email, for "telemetry" and other questionable reasons21·23 days agoThe original post was two years ago. Why talk about it now?
How about long-press on the address bar, then choose “Copy”? You can paste the link in the chat box with your friend.
Not true. Many laptops especially ThinkPad have a secondary M.2 slot.
Yes, and no, sir, you missed the point. The procedure here is to allocate then give away, not reading a fixed-length returned value.
Say you can only afford to have ten bytes in the stack. You allocate
char s[10];
then give it to a library to parse something. Also telling it to abort if it’s going to be longer than ten bytes, of course.
char c; scanf("%c", &c);
We know you were being satire. IMO it is of decent manner if you add “/s” to be explicit so when responding a serious reply, because this is not a satire comment chain.
