It does, in fact, stop! Persevere!

Thank you very much!

Wait, what? That’s so cool! Care to share somewhere I can start looking into this?

I don’t know the size in bytes, haven’t cared much about it for some time now. It also very much depends on the definition of minimal. My minimal != your minimal.

I’m referring to use flags, which allow me to not have a bunch of features I don’t use compiled to begin with. Less code - fewer headaches.

I run Gentoo.

It’s made my fundamentals stronger.

It allows me to run the minimal number of codepaths.

Every now and then it makes me happy. Sometimes proud of myself. All because I solved some problem that was helped by the mindset Gentoo had set up.

For those curious - it’s engine-x.

Used systemd for years; realistically my first init.

Switched to Gentoo.

Switched to OpenRC.

Lost logs at work on a server.

Some small inconveniences show up on systemd.

Yea, systemd is not that great.

There are people saying they don’t want to care about an init system, but it’s the same attitude as of those who don’t care about what car they drive. Yes, it gets the job done, but that’s not good enough for me.

I want the job done properly.

Been running my mail server on arch for six years and counting. Best decision given the circumstances!

Tiling WMs are just faster. So much faster. They remove so much annoyance it’s really hard to put it to words. Binding programs to workspaces is what finally sealed the deal for me.

I’d hazard a gueas it’s not touching a system drive, but rather saving all files as a regular user.

It’s a Class A address, reserved for loopback devices. While not any sort of default - yes, it could be used as home :)

That is something I’ve already run into at my previous workplace. The name escapes me atm…

There’s a wonderful android app called Imagepipe. Does a few things, but stripping exif data is one of them. Workflow is also great!

I realise that won’t help against people simply recognising your cat, but it’s useful for protection against bots and stuff.

Tell me you don’t understand what you’re talking about without saying you don’t understand what you’re talking about.

What’s this bear-porridge symbiosis I’ve been seeing lately?

It was, but it’s been back for some years now

This is put so beautifully!

Is this from some sort of q&a?

That is not at all the case in this context.

The problem is running GUI code as root as it’s never been vetted for that. What you want, effectively, is to have EDITOR variable of your session set to kate and open system files using sudoedit. I’m a terminal guy myself, so this exact thing is enough for me. Having said that - I’m sure someone will chime in with a plugin/addon/extension/etc that adds this to the right click context for what I assume is KDE. Or you can try looking for that om your favourite search engine.
