Spanish town bans penis suits and sex dolls from stag and hen dos
  • When i lived in Brazil, i observed the same on the island of Florianópolis and tourists from Argentina.

    Never expected to see my town named here lol

  • Your installation is about to get exploded
  • Also for some reason the image gives me serious Sam vibes.

    That's because it is!

  • Two chemists walk into a bar
  • Works on Voyager at least.

  • Youtube is now unusable without a frontend
  • Or PipePipe (at the time it was basically Newpipe with comments to me)

  • Arch and Gentoo users reading about NixOS
  • Could you explain what these bugs are? I'm curious.

  • What is the most difficult problem that you have fixed in linux?
  • Well, in this scenario the image file had 512 bytes sections, each one is called a block. If you have a KiB (a kibibyte = 1024 bytes) it will occupy 2 blocks and so on...

    Since this image file had a header with 512 bytes (i.e. a block) I could, in any of the relevant Linux mounting software (e.g. mount, losetup), choose an offset adding to the starting block of a partition. The command would look like this:

    sudo mount -o loop,offset=$((header+partition)) img_file /mnt
    
  • What is the most difficult problem that you have fixed in linux?
  • Not a Linux problem per se, but I had a 128GB image disk in a unknown .bin format which belongs to a proprietary application. The application only ran on Windows.

    I tried a few things but nothing except Windows based programs seemed able to identify the partitions, while I could run it in Wine, it dealt with unimplementend functions. So after a bit of googling and probing the file, it turns out the format had just a 512 bytes as header which some Windows based software ignored. After including the single block offset, all the tools used in Linux started working flawlessly.

  • COSMIC Store Prototype
  • You should edit that to say Gnome Software (aka Gnome App Store) instead of just Gnome. People are going to think you're talking about the whole DE.

  • temperature
  • For sure! At one point in winter I had to wear a second pair of pants to get through the day, and it was only in the 10°C range...

  • temperature
  • Yes, that was my first thought!

  • temperature
  • I mean, you can use decimals, but I understand your point.

  • Can you say shibboleth
  • Yep, so that corroborates my comment. If you know someone british they may speak hegehmony.

  • temperature
  • To be honest, a 10°C range is way too much variation for me to consider it as the same 'category' (at least in the 0°C ~ 40°C range). I say that as a Brazilian.

  • Can you say shibboleth
  • I think US citizens say 'Hedge-emony' while the british say 'Hegeh-emony'. At least that's what google thinks lol.
