  • I met my future wife in irc in 1994. In 1996 she moved from where she was to my state, and then in 2000 we got married, and have been ever since. The Internet was way different back then. I tell that to anyone using one of the current/past crop of dating apps.

  • Linux Best Practices
  • You can't do this on Linux anymore either. Unless you are on a way out of date system, you need to add the --no-preserce-root flag as well. And I think it still prompts you to make sure it is really want you want to do.

  • Superiority brings controversy
  • I mean, there is nothing stopping you from installing whatever version of the library that is required in tandem with the latest version. You could even put it somewhere other then a standard library location and start executing your binary with

    LD=/my/old/library ./myoodbinary

    and have it dynamically loaded at runtime.

    The only time this doesn't work is when it is something in the kernel that breaks the binary... But you can run an older kernel that has back ported fixed.

    I get where you are coming from with proprietary binarys that the devs have abandon. But to me that makes all the more reason not to run that software in the first place.

    Edit: also the kobo desktop Windows app runs under wine I think...

  • Superiority brings controversy
  • Define old binary. The a.out and elf format haven't changed in a very long time. If you mean something from an old system with unmet dependencies, it will run, but it will crash and warn you that some library isn't found. It will still run up until that point tho.

  • Favorite line or scene from Spaceballs... GO!
  • One of my friends recently got scammed online. He should have known better. But when he got the ticket and the number on it was 123 456 789 10 11 12, I had to tell him that was the same as the combination on my luggage

  • Sinéad O’Connor & The Chieftains - The Foggy Dew

    piped.kavin.rocks Piped

    An alternative privacy-friendly YouTube frontend which is efficient by design.

    Piped

    My mother introduced me to the chieftains. This is the song I always think of when I hear Sinéad O'Connor mentioned. Her voice is just so pure and cutting... What is there not to love?

    What are the best/highest quality Video Games ever made?
  • One of the best I have ever played which falls into adventure, puzzle, RPG, strategy , and open world is probably star control 2, the urquan masters. It has an amazingly well crafted story, the music is great, and a bunch of different aspects to the game play. This still is one of my favorite games of all time

  • Willett small batch straight rye whiskey

    Well, I picked this up on a whim when I visited the package store. It's hard to describe but if I were blindfolded I would think I was drinking a 15 year old scotch. No rye spice that I can detect, but definitely smokey/peaty. 109 proof but you can hardly feel that... I personally am not a fan... I'm not going to throw it away but I certainly don't look forward to a glass.

    The funny thing is when I shared some to a friend who drinks nothing but scotch and he didn't like it either... Thought it was too bourbony. Which is pretty bizarre from my view point.

    Anyway, I give it. A 2/10... I will not be looking for another bottle

    Edit: well there are a ton of positive reviews out there so maybe it is just the batch I got? My bottle is a lot darker then most other reviews .. maybe I'll have to find a different batch.

    "Not logged in" error while logged in
  • First log out of lemmy.world. it's called remove account....kind of scary but it won't hurt. Turn close liftoff and go to system settings -> apps. Find liftoff and select storage and cache. In that menu select clear cache. Close the settings menu and go back into liftoff. Choose to add your account again and everything should be fixed... Or at least that fixed it for me.

  • how does everyone feel about "finished" bourbon?

    i picked this up yesterday and it was really really good! it has a great full flavor and is very smooth.

    i have tried the angels envy port finished bourbon and was not super happy with it. maybe it was psychosomatic but i could almost taste the port in it. on the same note, i have drank several bottles of the Litchfield distillary Port cask finished bourbon, and really really enjoyed it, so maybe it isn't all in my head.

    anyway, redemption isn't normally one of my go-to brands but i couldn't resist trying something different and new, and i was pleasently surprised. i would highly recommend it.
