- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.

sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

HΓ₯j is OK. HΓ₯j can sqish
tar -xvzf blahaj.tar.gz
cd blahaj/
./configure
make
sudo make install
Now enjoy your Blahaj. (although depending on your system you may need to install dependencies after configuration. Blahaj is dependent on love, kindess, and affection.)
me: sees tar file
terminal tar..... -asidjasdaskdjasldjasd
error
me, sighing: presses up until i find the last time i untarred a file, hoping
blahaj is dependent on love, kindness, and affection.
nix-shell -p make --run make
How do you install kindness and affection? They're not on the AUR:
[[email protected] ~]$ paru -S kindness affection
:: Resolving dependencies...
error: could not find all required packages:
kindness (target)
affection (target)
I have, somehow, found love packaged though. But it's not true love. It's LΓVE (a 2d game engine) spelled with an ASCII typeset so I'm pretty sure I have installed the wrong dependency.
I still use yay, is paru better?
Paru tends to handle things EVER so slightly better. Really tho it REALLY doesn't make a difference in reality.
paru is written in Rust, yay in Go.
That's pretty much the only difference. Since Rust is objectively superior to Go (I have never worked with either language so my opinion is as unbiased as can be) paru is clearly better.
Why not just use a package manager what is this 2003?
I prefer to arrange my electrons like building blocks just like gramma did
I'm compiling PETSc right now, because the versions that package managers ship is compiled without a niche option that I need
This is so true because gzip uses the Deflate algorithm :O
noo, what did u do to my shonk >.<
made him sh|nk
-2 points for unnecessary use of tarball
Will be adding more.
Good luck achieving that compression without the bag.
Pulls out sword
If you use pixz, you can get indexing-permitting-for-random access, parallel compression/decompression and (generally superior to gzip's LZ77) LZMA compression with tarballs.
$ sudo apt install pixz
$ tar cvf blahaj.tar.pixz -Ipixz blahaj/Are you assuming my package manager!!??
https://lemmy.cafe/post/11766332, you either use yay or pacman. I don't know anything about Arch besides that because I use NixOS btw.
With yay:
yay -S pixz
With pacman:
pacman -S pixz
Just giving an example; translate to your preferred environment!

The way it's still looking at you...
If that is the GZ version, what would the BZ2 and XZ versions look like
well there's lots of wasted space where the vacuum bag is empty
