This thread is about the steam deck. It is a purpose built piece of hardware that runs its software in containers.

It can run regular desktop software, but it is absolutely not a replacement for “a general purpose system”.

Haha, weird.

I’ve had that happen a few times recently (wrong comment replied to) and I have no idea how it happens. For the upvotes… well it’s either there’s too many Lemdiots on this platform, or bots (oh noes!).

Isn’t that technically what Android fix 15 tears ago?

It’s a typing speed problem. The left hand hitting the 4 was too slow/the right hand jumped the gun on typing the first 9.

So, definitely aliens.

Does that mean you don’t have to get down to the bus stop?

You can make cherry juice, but presumably you’d do that by crushing the cherry meat to extract the juice. That’s different from how coffee is made. To create cherry coffee, we’d have to take the cherry pits, dry them, roast them, grind them, then pour hot water over them.

The cost of a .com Domain can be under $10/year

I just bought bitwaba.com for like 8.49 a couple months ago.

.com, .net, .org, and .social are called Top Level Domains

You can register a second level domain (e.g. “google”, "lemmy”, “cnn”) with a specific TLD, resulting in a domain name (e.g. “google.com”, “lemmy.social”, “cnn.com”)

It’s been a decade. They’ll live.

She wont

The hell it does.

You’ve spent too much time talking to my family.

That’s why I only use my socks by proxy

1 minute and 14 seconds?

That is a perfectly good cucumber! Just picked the mother fucker. The salt and vinegar will sanitize it… And now you’ve got pickles!

I don’t think I’ve had a pacman update take longer than 10 minutes before. Sounds like OP was updating all their AUR packages too.

Still absolutely a terrible thing to do on 10% battery life. I bet there’s an AUR package for “check battery level before update” out there somewhere though.

OPs meme is "use distro whose model is ‘give users enough rope to hang themselves’ " and complaining he’s at the gallows

You mean read the Arch wiki?

Mutations are also good, see any piece of software with a version higher than 1.0, or any project that was forked.

I was going to say “but ventoy only mounts the filesystem as readonly. Great for testing new distros, but not great for rolling installs you carry with you to use on different computers”

Then I quickly found https://www.ventoy.net/en/plugin_persistence.html, so TIL!

Yeah, all my Linux installs after about 2003 were liveCDs. I used to carry my Gentoo CD around as my diagnostic tools for a while helping people fix their windows machines (or just backing up everything off it before reformatting).

I think Knoppix was the first live CD I used. It was mind blowing. Now you can just carry around a whole personally configured system on a USB stick. Pretty cool.

I think you mean “Great Scot!”

Sometimes hours of work to figure out how to get a webcam to work Or how to fix grub?

The easiest solution was just “eh, I probably don’t need that anyways”
