Just reconfigured /etc/makepkg.conf to use extra cores and tmpfs.. I've been compiling on the SSD with one core for so long it's embarrassing.

Wow... I was pretty shocked at the levels of ignorance with vaccines in recent history too.

I know how to do a valve check.. I probably should on my car. I did the valves on my motorbike. That was a real mission.

For sure. I've done several high level driving courses for work. TL;Dr drive slower, increase follow distance. You may arrive 30 seconds late but it would eliminate the chance of so many accidents. Learning to ride a motorbike made my driving way better too.

Oh shit.

“We have only started striking Hamas,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said. “What we will do to our enemies in the coming days will reverberate with them for generations.”

@TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee was right, it's turning into the shitshow.

 

I'm wanting to build a bike to my own specs, I thought I would be able to get a bit of a discount by buying the frame as second hand, but it's proving oddly difficult to find any.

I tried Ebay thinking that would be the one, but it's just loaded with Chinese brand frames.

Do I have to buy a new frame from the manufacturer?

 

I have to post this on my phone

Logged out, logged in again, cannot get web pages. Can ping to ips, cannot resolve names with ping. Can resolve names with nslookup. Browsing doesn't work obviously but I can get to remote ips like repo locations.

???

REALLY seems like DNS but DNS is working with nslookup and I can change the nameserver in etc/resolv.conf and see nslookup using different nameserver but still no dice when using ping/browser

Any ideas??

 

Just some lighter news to break up the doom a bit

I remember playing with 3D Movie Maker extensively. Me and my mate would make shitty movies usually ripping off James Bond or Indiana Jones.

I also used the other McZee programs, Creative Writer and Fine Artist, which were basically a fancy text editor and a fancy paint program.

It feels like we don't have anything like that today, there doesn't seem to be this type of creative game out there. I would have expected 3D Movie Maker to have unending sequels, like the one with Nickelodeon, getting more advanced with each decades pop characters, but it just stopped.

I guess I'm looking for kid-friendly versions of business applications.

Like Creative Writer is Word for kids, Fine Artist is Photoshop for kids, 3DMM is Maya/Blender for kids…

 

Just to clarify, I'm talking about thousands of torrents across hundreds of different directories.

 

Just kidding, there is no closure. I could not replicate this issue again after multiple reboots.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for their suggestions, and easier to make a post here than reply to each single comment.

 

When I was working minimum wage at a gas station many eons ago, we would have '2 for $x' specials where x is less than 2 times the individual price of whatever item.

People would often not want to buy 2, but I would ring up 2 in the till for the special price and charge them for the single. Then when the next person did the same, I would charge them for the other single.

So over the day, I would sell 10 energy drinks at say $4, but ring them up as 5 '2 for $6' specials. This would put the till up by $10, and then I would use that $10 to have a free meal.

Anyone else do anything like that?

 

Controversial take: If you are buying a car for $29 f-ing thousand dollars, with no downpayment, and accepting interest rates over 20%, and can and have afforded to pay $250 per week in repayments, you have no right to be complaining about the interest rate you agreed to.

 

...And I'm taking partial credit for that. No need to thank me, just keep shopping elsewhere. Everyone keep doing your part.
