And Tolkien's Legendarium is just a bunch of hastily-written bedtime stories for Chris, right?

I'm sure Fabulous Bill has a couple of attachments that would make even Slaanesh blush.

Some people are just really passionate about their tiny yellow plastic toy soldiers all having imaginary penises. The penises are important to them. They can't bear to imagine a Legio Custodes that doesn't have a full armament of cock.

chroot was introduced in 1979 for Unix. arch-chroot is a wrapper around chroot that provides additional functionality and a tighter integration between the system and the new root.

Oh, you use pacstrap and arch-chroot, do you? Back in my day all we had was cp and install and we liked it that way! Kids these days wouldn't know how to install SLS without their Yays and Pac-men.

Actually, Jon scores 2 by the time The Survey is conducted.

Link is NSFL. Seriously.

Goth girls were hunted to extinction by the rolling giants and the mall ecology collapsed as a result. The niche is now occupied by urbex enthusiasts and Julien Reverchon.

Could be asbesthos sheets. Still regrettably common in former Soviet countries.

 

Minecraft and Factorio ain't shit next to Conway's Game Of Life.

Low effort meme while flatpak update finishes.

I understand why having eight very specific versions of the same library is important. Doesn't mean it isn't annoying.

TranscriptFLATPAK EMPLOYEE: what would u like?
ME: one flatpak update please
FPE: so u want "a whole bag of updates?"
ME: no, just a "flatp-"
FPE: I definitely heard "more updates than u could ever handle"
ME: please, no--
FPE: JERRY, FOIST UPON THIS MAN "A FUCKASS LOAD AMOUNT OF UPDATES"

It's a Creative Zen Stone that I got as a Christmas gift in 2008. I just found it in a drawer, and it's still holding charge. The last thing I put on it was The Life And Times Of Scrooge by Tuomas Holopainen, in 2015 -- I don't know why, at that time I definitely had a smartphone.

It has a headphone jack, which immediately makes it better than every smartphone produced in the last several years, and it can easily drive my 80-ohm Beyerdynamic. The audio quality is as good as one can expect. The only drawback is that it only holds 1GB... my old CD rips had to be compressed to hell and back.

Let me reiterate that this has been sitting untouched for a decade and was immediately ready for action. No login, no annoying software updates, expired subscription, or remote bricking by the manufacturer. Eat my shorts, Spotify Car Thing.

P.s. A Lifetime Of Adventure is a banger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWwSVOo5K_k

LED lights are great, but I miss having a mini hot plate on my desk to mindlessly touch and burn my hand.

(Do kids even watch cartoons these days, or do they go into scrolling withdrawal before the first commercial break?)

 

I just tossed a fistful of pistachio shells into my mouth.

 

INTERFACING [Trivial: failed] - The umbrella bounces off the side of the bin with a clang and a clatter. It comes to rest on the cold concrete, in the middle of a puddle of trash juice. It is no more pitiful a sight than before.

Philip Rebohle, DXVK's founding developer, stated in an interview that he started the project "to get one specific game to work". Later, he explained in a forum post that he was a bit of a Nier fanboy, and that it was a relatively simple game to use as a test subject for DXVK.

Rebohle was later contacted and hired by Valve. Wine already had a D3D11 compatibility layer, but it wasn't nearly as far ahead as DXVK at the time. It's fair to say that Linux gaming wouldn't exist in its current form if not for one guy's appreciation for Nier Automata. Rebohle still works at Valve, currently conributing to VKD3D-Proton.

 

re: this article.

The title is a joke. "Free, but you have to make an EGS account" is a bit too rich for me.
