Last Notes npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1m9p…4fja Why 18.04 EOLNLLTS (end-of-life no longer long term support)? :P I mean you can use Ubuntu Pro with it I guess but still... npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1tmk…0y85 I'm pretty sure it's #ladybird, not #ladybug. Same animal, not the same browser name. :) But yes, also excited for this. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub18dc…dkle I have yet to actually meet an "extremist" in real life. Maybe that's just because I'm lucky though. On the other hand, I've seen people try to redefine extremism in order to make a group they dislike look bad. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt I wish laptop batteries were still made the way they used to be. I have a Lenovo 3000 C200 machine here, 32-bit, 1 GB RAM. The thing is almost 20 years old (released in 2006), appears to still have its OEM battery, it's so old parts of the hardware are showing signs of failure... and the battery still works like a champ. It's wild. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Alright, Windows app was a fail, but other things are working out well enough. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt alright, I am victorious! npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Welp, I'm on a roll tonight. First I installed #Haiku (a BeOS clone) without fully wiping the old Debian installation off the disk, so that didn't work, then I did a proper install... and forgot to mark the partition as active. 🤦 I may or may not emerge with a working install by the end of the night if this keeps up :P npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt I need a terminal that, when I try to open a new instance of it, it just pops open my existing terminal window with a new terminal tab (as opposed to making a whole new window). I keep finding myself with anywhere from three to ten spare terminals open and wondering "how did I do this?!" npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1m9p…4fja You're thinking of Wubi (Windows-based Ubuntu Installer). It no longer is an official thing, but it appears to still have an unofficial fork going. https://github.com/hakuna-m/wubiuefi npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1tal…f0uu This is the funniest thing I've read all day. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt I wish my cat were quantum. It would make it so much easier to deal with the fact that she wants to be both inside and outside at the same time. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt BTW this is a bit of a rant over the fact that Windows 11's ISO clocks in at over 6 GB, and I'm about to have to download that whole insane thing just to get a plausible-looking VM setup screenshot. Or I get to doctor the screenshot. I'll probably end up doing the latter. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Made this abomination trying to NOT have to download the whole whopping Win11 ISO just to get a user interface screenshot for some documentation. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub142f…qdrj You might be interested in the Fedora Everything ISO - it's a netinstaller similar to Debian's installer. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1ypg…zl93 rofl my boss needs to see this npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Alright, lesson learned, don't listen to new music albums while trying to work. I just had a song I hadn't heard before bring me to tears right in the middle of the work day 😅 Switchfoot's "On Fire" if you're interested in crying with me. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt For the first time in my life I listened to Kutless's "Strong Tower" album all the way through in one sitting. I'm amazed - never have I heard an album from any band where every. single. song. is absolutely incredible. If you haven't heard actually good Christian music in a while, go listen to it - it's free on YouTube Music. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1ted…lz9z I had no idea this existed. I will be using this I bet. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt I dunno what they put in these "dessert bars" but for this price they had better be good 🤣 (don't worry, I didn't buy them) npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Why is it that every single time I have a really complicated problem with a seemingly bizarre cause, I describe it in detail to someone else and then realize the fix just as I finish typing a whole wall of text. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt The moment you realize sed might not be the best tool for this job. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1w57…rdk0 The important part is that you *feel* cared for. /s npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Did you know you can sometimes "crash" Bash by assigning zero to a variable? Well, now you know. I wrote a blog post about it: https://open.substack.com/pub/arraybolt3/p/or?r=26c8fr&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Been listening to this pretty much on repeat today. This is of my favorite bands, and after listening to the lyrics closely it's one of my favorite songs of theirs. :) npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1hkl…rgsc ah, only now did I look at the alt text. :P npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1hkl…rgsc wait this isn't serious is it??? npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1h8f…0uau but you have to provide your physical home address to download it? No thanks, I'll stick with KVM. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub19yu…k4fq neat, sounds like a fun project. I'm very busy most of the time, but I can at least try to do something like that hopefully. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Just a friendly reminder that anyone who randomly invites you to a Telegram or Matrix room that has anything to do with cryptocurrency or money investment is probably trying to scam you. I'm currently DM-ing somewhere around 500 people individually on Matrix to warn them that they've joined or have an invite to a scam den I ended up in. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1ftj…4fen Praying over here as well! npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1h8f…0uau This is from 2013. I don't think it's still very relevant. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1p4y…l8vj Just watch system monitor? You don't see your RAM steadily climbing, then dropping, then climbing again, and so forth? That should be visible. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1p4y…l8vj You might be looking at the results of memory garbage collection. Does your RAM usage drop at the same time the pauses occur? npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1vjd…rlky Relevant (but not Signal-related): https://github.com/element-hq/element-meta/issues/2326 npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt PSA: Yes, Ubuntu 24.04 is released, No, you cannot do-release-upgrade 22.04 to 24.04 normally yet. Ubuntu intentionally does not allow 22.04-to-24.04 upgrades by default until 24.04.1 is released. That gives us Ubuntu Developers time to fix a few more bugs and let things get stabilized better. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1vjd…rlky 0000 = 0 npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt #gotWorship #christian #music npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1drq…qujl That one extra day provides a lot of extra time for testing and getting fixes out tho... npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1fkz…8rsc Sure :P npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt (For those who are questioning my sanity because I'm trying to install Windows, don't panic, it's only for helping test Ubuntu 24.04's ability to install alongside another OS.) npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Back to using WoeUSB I guess. It's a bit tricky but it does the job well. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt meh, failed. I got Windows Boot Manager to show up, but it says that "A required device isn't connected or can't be accessed." I.e., "you done goofed trying to set this drive up" :P npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Not sure if I'm brave or crazy... but I just attempted to create a bootable Windows USB drive from within Linux using only gdisk, mkfs.fat, mkfs.ntfs, Dolphin, and cp. If all goes well, it will only be UEFI-bootable, but it *will* be UEFI-bootable. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1l3g…vu48 ...what? npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub18yv…xxyn Mine is generally "Oh, I can make this a lot faster with a bit of C." npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1ajt…0g42 Suspend is fine IMO, it's hibernate that I generally don't see a good use for. There are useful edge cases though, so if yours is one of them, then I guess a swapfile is a good thing. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1w57…rdk0 This is me every time I try to write anything in C. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub18yv…xxyn This is why I refuse to code anything except tiny, simple (and oftentimes single-use) utilities in Python. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Well this is weird. Had an old scanner that refused to power on despite multiple unplugs and replugs. It was obviously getting power as I could see some activity that looked like a RAM check, but it wouldn't power on. Went over and switched off an audio amplifier on the same circuit... and then the scanner worked. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1l3g…vu48 Sounds a bit like Frogfind but more rich. http://frogfind.com/ (https doesn't work) npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1l3g…vu48 "My computer won't restart!" "Ah, but you didn't say to restart, you said to rⓔs𝕥𝓐𝔯t. Very different." npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub18yv…xxyn Oh my word, I'm so sorry to hear you're going through this. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt This was inspired by the "zero bugs" section of the @npub16z7…fmyl April Fool's day joke, KNOME. https://knome.carlschwan.eu/ Part of the website features a "happy blue screen of death" section, so I took it up a notch :P npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Task failed successfully, I guess. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1l3g…vu48 @npub1sfz…jzap UUID wants to know your location npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub17t7…zuxj Last suggestion - OpenIndiana or one of the other illumos (successor to OpenSolaris) distributions. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub17t7…zuxj Also Redox OS works on some real hardware. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub17t7…zuxj Also FreeDOS. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub17t7…zuxj RISC OS on the Raspberry Pi 4 might be fun. https://www.riscosopen.org/content/downloads/raspberry-pi npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub18yv…xxyn I don't particularly like the cartridge/ROM reader stuff as it sort of conflates retrocomputing with retrogaming, which IMO are two different fields (one with potentially very practical use, the other with very limited use and that is very likely to lead to piracy of content or other violations of laws). Stuff about supporting old programming languages, enabling running old operating systems, etc., though, sounds neat. I personally love trying to get ancient hardware to work with modern software, and have pulled it off successfully a few times. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub16pe…55d7 Tried NeoVim, no go. Doomemacs... I'll look into that. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub19yu…k4fq Not exactly a reason to not use Linux, but I once heard a story about a place in Russia where even though all of the computers ran Linux, they had to purchase Windows licenses for all of them and affixed CoA stickers on every machine. These were licenses that were entirely unused. Why did they buy them? Because the person auditing their license compliance didn't know that it was possible for a PC to have a legally usable OS on it without a Windows license. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub12hn…ln26 @npub184l…2u75 @npub1qh6…7gez @npub1tp2…4l9u @npub1gj9…wshu @npub1h70…kkwc As someone else commented, it looks like Wayland support is in the works. But if it were to remain X11-only, I would worry, since Red Hat is the primary maintainer of X.Org and they've already deprecated it for RHEL 9 and it will be absent entirely in RHEL 10. Meaning when RHEL 9 goes EOL, X.Org is essentially going to be unmaintained upstream unless other people come in and save it. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1ftj…4fen Homeservers. Blah. I use Matrix a lot, could you tell? 🙃 They're called instances over here, Aaron! npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub12hn…ln26 Tie between LXQt and XFCE. LXQt has a place in my heart because it's the default DE of Lubuntu, which I love using and am an active contributor to. XFCE though just has something about it that I love. The aesthetic is beautiful in general and it's incredibly customizable, far more than any DE other than KDE Plasma. I never have a spare system to install Xubuntu on though so I hardly use it :( npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt It's amazing how many different styles the same Psalm can be rendered in, all of them beautiful in a different way. The following three songs are dramatically different, yet two of them are directly based on Psalm 46 and the third uses a verse from it as part of the chorus. Tell me which one is your favorite! npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt It's somewhat confusing to me that many of the people who are advocates for and supporters of free-as-in-freedom software are also advocates for and supporters of piracy. Piracy and copyleft are mutually exclusive, because *copyleft only works when copyright is enforced.* If it's fine to rip off someone else's hard work because the terms they license their products under are problematic, why is it wrong for someone to rip off a FOSS dev because the terms they license their products under are problematic? You can't steal proprietary content and defend libre content at the same time. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt I'm a bit irked that many of the people who are advocates for and supporters of free-as-in-freedom software are also advocates for and supporters of piracy. Piracy and copyleft are mutually exclusive, because *copyleft only works when copyright is enforced.* If you're going to rip off the hard work of other people because you don't like the terms they licenses their services and products under, you have no right to be upset when those same people rip off the work of FOSS devs because they don't like the terms they license their services and products under. If you're going to stand with libre software, you must also stand against piracy. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Turns out if you start KDE Plasma in Arabic, the entire user interface flips horizontally (presumably to work better with right-to-left text). npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Text is one of the most fundamental things people work with when using a computer. Yet there's a lot more to text than meets the eye - text encodings, codepages, scancodes, font hinting and kerning, complex script handling, endianness, OS-dependent line endings, extended ASCII for drawing "pictures" in text, control "characters", etc., etc. I'd have to learn a fair bit in order to make a good article on it, but should I try and write an article on what a computer's idea of "text" is and the history behind it? npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt Israel-Gaza conflict stuff, graphic content (no images) npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1e2p…aqmc Ugh, that's awful. So sorry to hear that. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1mv9…5avx I mostly agree with you on this one, though I think it's somewhat of an understatement to say a *mere* 0.7% of the population of Gaza has been killed in the war. 0.7% of America's population is well over a million people, and we as a nation would be absolutely devastated if a million of our people died in war. The fact that Israel's actions are well-justified and necessary now doesn't mean that things aren't still tragic. I fully support Israel in what they're doing, I just also see that this is awful. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1e2p…aqmc Ah yes, the days when laptop touchpads still had actual mouse buttons. I still don't understand how almost every laptop manufacturer in the world decided mouse buttons were superfluous. I could actually click with perfect accuracy and precision back when they were a thing. Now I need an external mouse for that. 😕 npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1mv9…5avx I don't know of one that is free of charge and FOSS - I use Substack which is free of charge but not FOSS. You could use Nikola to make a static site blog (it's fairly simple IMO, simpler than Wordpress at least), then self-host the site on a free Oracle VPS instance. But you'd have to pay for a domain name, and I'm not sure how easy it would be to get comments going thereafter. npub1kajdlnj8g3usaj46s5djntm82rrq5fxn0y4pf2y3yqulp76mancsdqdh8c Aaron Rainbolt @npub1x7a…grqk It looks awesome on paper, but the poor software engineer who has to make a metric time to 24-hour time converter is going to cry.
