Well, uh, try training your AI with the lessons learned, and hope it doesn’t instantly pretend it never happened the very next day.

The one value proposition for juniors is that though they screw up a lot, they learn by screwing up. High turnover and curtailing your junior experience using AI are major technical mistakes on management’s part.

It really shows what a great life that we on the Fediverse are living, by making our tech independent to a degree from the largest tech providers.

It has a Garfield Kart 1 feel to it.

This is why I’m always against auto-updates, malicious packages can get in way too easily and silently.

Good idea to remember not to click zips or exes if you’re expecting a torrent file.

Luckily this malware was relatively benign, changing bitcoin addresses to malicious ones in the clipboard, so if you don’t use crypto then you’re fine against this attack. No one’s funds have made it into the attacker’s wallet yet.

Maybe as a Christmas gift to myself. My current one is an EIE pro that came with my guitar second hand. The linux “driver” only sort of works.

And it’s not likely to be the last.

If you want to delay your switch to Linux, there are scripts to enroll in the ESU, but unfortunately the local account script stopped working on the one I used. Have not tested massgravel’s. Other options are to get Win 10 LTSC, or keep your system disconnected from the Internet.

An aside: My main desktop is Linux but I am currently trying Winboat to get the last piece of my hardware dependence off (my 20 year old DAC and rocksmith 2014) to work. Then, I can finally nuke Windows off of my secondary laptop because I’m sure as hell not giving it Win 11.

The penalty of doing it wrong needs to be higher than the cost of doing jt right.

I don’t get it? Why can’t car companies just release software updates that get deployed with the regular service interval, like once every year or two? That way the repair service or dealership will be close by if problems arise.

On the topic of ‘hills to die on’, I will say I have gained a significant respect for you over the last 2 years, for sticking to your principles on this and following through on them.

We might disagree on the best way to do things. I’d witnesed you in the past receiving a lot of pushback (to put it lightly) for a well-intentioned but controversially implemented project (the whole Reddit mirroring and account claiming thing you tried). If I had been in your shoes at the time, I would probably have quit Lemmy and the Fediverse entirely for something else in order to try to pursue that vision. Yet, you’ve stayed with it, with the aim to refine your ideas on how to better bring decentralized social media to the general public. So kudos to you for your resoluteness on this.

Hooray for cancer, asthma and bronchitis! Make America Healthy Again. Lung health is like Karate – black is the best!

At least you can still make the pilgrimage over ~18 days.

But since even on normal speed trains it takes less than 9.5h from Nihonbashi to 3jo-Ohashi, only the most dedicated cross country hikers would be interested, or perhaps a group would for an annual or once every few years event.

Intel: did I hear somebody say we should announce our newest 14nm+++++++++ platform?

Character ideas: The KDE Konqi, Katie and the whole host of dragons (Yoshi style). Xenia the Fox alternate Linux mascot. Lemmy and Mastodon mascots.

Provisional name idea: Smashtest (like Minetest until they figured out to call themselves Luanti).

Other name ideas: Open Source Battle Royale

Stage ideas:

• Smart Home (Home Assistant themed),
• GRUB (a few traversable lines or options)
• GRUB rescue (one line, Final Destination style)
• Rapid Coding (a DK falls-style scrolling map)
• vim (a close quarters map similar to the Game & Watch map, optionally with walls as the characters are “stuck in vim”)
• i3 (a pre-made map styled in a tiling window way, or perhaps dynamically splits the stage during battle)
• compiz (do whatever you want as long as it looks cool, wobbly, wavy, cubey or 3d-like)
• Hannah Montana Linux or Biebian (without a picture of the person in question but the colour scheme and the shape of stage elements would highly imply it’s those distributions)
• Blender 3D interface
• FreeCAD animated assembly

Special Move ideas (that can work with most characters):

• Update (a small rest/vulnerable period followed by a buff)
• Mailing List (a beam of emails)
• Harden/Vulnerability Patch (could paint/plaster offensive move, or it could be a curl up defensive move or roll around like yoshi/sonic/jigglypuff etc.
• Release Candidate (powerful offensive move with some drawback or self damage)
• Bug catch (a forceful two handed clap in front, or using a net)

Other attacks:

• cronjob (Tux tosses a clock that explodes)
• Tail whips
• Fire breath

Obstacles, enemies, hazards:

• a bug
• a kernel panic/freeze
• the meditation guru
• firejail
• a green-coloured GPU driver
• git issues
• dependencies/dependency hell
• Blender default cube

Your game doesn’t have to have every single element FOSS-themed, as it might make it feel too nerdy, but if you were short on this kind of idea and wanted some, here you go.
