I don’t think it’s a joke, though it’s not universal, but many services probably either don’t process the image, or use libraries that support webp, and naively limit formats before feeding them in - in those cases, renaming the file can bypass those crappy filters, and other software will probably figure out the filetype based on the actual data.
Wouldn’t foregone conclusion mean that people do that?
Calling somebody a racist or sexist hurts their feelings, should that be allowed?
Calling somebody out publicly can hurt their livelihood and thus ability to get things like medical care, should that be allowed?
All information on the manufacturer’s servers has been destroyed, including 10 terabytes of backup materials.
The numbers might not add up, but it’s possible the hackers had access to the (insufficient, and badly secured) backups to delete them too.
What? It shows up as a footer under the description, and inside is the game developer’s description of how they used AI. Look at Stellaris for example, I remember they claim to use it minimally (in very vague words), but they certainly get to say their piece.
Literally the last two RSS items right now are about how splitting packages will require intervention for some users (plasma and Linux firmware).
Maybe a nitpick, but the linux-firmware situation is different, it’s not about needing to install extra packages (they turned the existing package into a meta package or whatever it’s called), but about that coinciding with some changes that can break the upgrade process and require you to force uninstall a package before proceeding.
But yeah, good point about plasma, the only differences I can even think of are that plasma is probably more popular, and definitely more important to have working.
Obligatory Tom Cardy
But that’s not logarithmic, that sounds like some kind of inverse scale with the asymptote at 10, meaning 10 can never be reached because that would mean actual infinite speed.
With a logarithmic scale, the speed is literally increasing exponentially, at every point, like getting 10 times faster for every point on the scale.
So yeah, I think you made the very mistake you tried warning people about ;D
While I agree with the rest, does Lutris have backup options? I never actually checked, but don’t remember seeing any of that
No, wiping it over the machine like a cloth won’t make it work better.
Ironically, doesn’t it? If you don’t know where the reader and chip are (sometimes it’s not clear), keeping the card close and moving it all over will eventually hit the spot ;D
It’s not being made “as painful as possible”, it’s just manual. Arch isn’t a distro that’ll preconfigure things for you so everything’s plug’n’play, it’s a distro that’ll give you access to everything and the power to use it however you like, but with that comes the expectation and responsibility to manage those things.
Installing arch manually is simply a good lesson in how your system is set up, what parts it’s made up of, in part because you’re free to remove and switch out those parts.
And sure, there’s no magic bullet to make sure a new user understands everything they did, but I think in the end, if you’re not willing to read, learn and troubleshoot, you might just want a different distro.
If they’re ignored files, setting them up locally won’t end up in the repo. If you put a symlink into the repo, fixing that for your setup will register as a change within git, which can cause annoyance and even problems down the line.
