I think they meant the horse-like things on the casino planet.

I recently needed to build newer versions of some packages for Debian. Now, they're go based so the official packaging is super complicated and eventually I decided to try and make my own from scratch. After a few more hours of messing with the official tooling I start thinking "there must be a better way."

And sure enough, after a bit of searching I found makedeb which allows you to make debs from (almost) regular PKGFILEs. Made the task a million times simpler.

What sticks are you using?

Happy 30th anniversary

Almost to the day - it was July 11th 1995.

It was a fucked up thing he did, but it did give all of you a really funny story to share. Except for the piss-drinker, he's not sharing that with anyone if he can help it.

Ironically, everyone hated it because they thought it would cause fragmentation.

it's all bespoke

Unfortunately, that's by design. Mir was the display server that tried to combat that exact problem, and we burned it at the stake.

"Mad as a bicycle!"

As if the original comic wasn't reductive and unnecessarily dismissive enough, you've somehow made it worse. Let people make things if they think they have a shot at it, please.

Gnome 3 implemented 4 as a core feature and got so much flack from users for it. So they made it trigger less and less until they effectively removed it. I still see it happen, but very rarely.

Don't forget GenX, they cut their teeth on DOS and other such horrors.

They're going after the anger dollar, that's a good dollar. We've done research.

Yarr! Content!

fzf makes ctrl-r really nice so you use it more often, especially if you use tmux as well.

Slovenian Cockta is pretty good. Also, lots of opportunities for dick jokes.

I've been car A and still had car D behind me beep at me. We hate car D.

Oh, that's nice, TIL. But still, there are other projects that do just directly download from GitHub when building, buildroot for example.

Compiling any larger go application would hit this limit almost immediately. For example, podman is written in go and has around 70 dependencies, or about 200 when including transitive dependencies. Not all the depends are hosted on GitHub, but the vast majority are. That means that with a limit of 60 request per hour it would take you 3 hours to build podman on a new machine.

Not to mention, if you have the model you can print it even long after the product support has ended. No company will support a product they stopped making half a decade ago, but you'll still be able to print parts the same way.
