He’s not being an arse. You shat on a man’s life work. It’s something he was remembered for. Also, Samba has been a life saver more times than I care to remember.

I have been around since production servers were predominantly HP-UX, Solaris, and AIX. I settled on Vi because it was the one common editor that was preinstalled on every *NIX OS, including Linux and you could jump right into edit mode while reading a file without having to exit the preview first.
Nano is fine, but one you’ve gone through the pain of committing Vi to muscle memory, there’s no point to switch.
One hundred percent, but don’t forget Jony Ive. The mythology of Steve Jobs is built on the genius of Woz and the designs of Ive.
So a perfect open source name then.
The myth of Steve Jobs needed the actual genius of others to exist. Steve’s gift to the world was recognizing and pointing out actual gifts tonthe world that would have otherwise gone unoticed or not brought to their full potential.
If Steve was still around, he would have taken Ronald’s idea and had it rebuilt with a little polish and an exorbitant price tag.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Finally done with the distro-hop: My return to Fedora
3·1 month agoI am pretty sure I started with either Halloween or Mother’s Day because Red Hat Linux for Dummies came with Red Hat 2.1 which I am pretty sure came out in 96 or 97. I know Red Hat 6 was released in 1999, because I was neck deep in Y2K work at the time I installed it on my Compaq laptop.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Finally done with the distro-hop: My return to Fedora
20·1 month agoI have been on this Linux jam since 1996 with a CD copy of Red Hat that came with a magazine (Byte, maybe?). In 2018 I made the jump to Debian based distros specifically because I got tired of the surprises. Now my lab runs LMDE. The only thing more stable and boring is Debian Stable itself.
Like you said, I want to focus on my projects, not have the OS be my project.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.ml•GOG confirm they are working towards GOG Galaxy on Linux
26·1 month agoI believe thatbis the point of GOG Galaxy, otherwise you can just use the native installers.
Hopefully they add Wine/Proton integration like Steam and Heroic have.

Linux@programming.dev•Proton VPN's anti-censorship Stealth protocol finally lands on Linux
52·1 month agoIt’s the author conflating “Linux” and “open source”. In their statement, Proton states “Linux community” snd the author promptly writes “open source community”. Knowing the difference between the two seems like a requirement to write for a tech publication, but maybe that’s just my crazy opinion.

In this case, we are a little behind schedule, but working to rapidly catch up.
In the Cyberpunk TTRPG universe, the original internet (known as the Net) collapsed during a catastrophic event called the DataKrash, which occurred on June 3, 2022.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Interview via MS Teams? How about NO.
6·2 months agoOur clients are some of those “biggest companies in the world” (US and Europe). Sadly, Oracle is very much so in it.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Interview via MS Teams? How about NO.
171·2 months agoOracle is the choice if you need a high performance RDBMS capable of processing extreme amounts of data at extreme io rates. Nothing comes close for enterprise level applications. THAT SAID, it requires a special kind of individual to be able to get the most out of it. Even better if that person knows of the existence, value, and use of the many undocumented v$ tables, etc.
Once you can migrate most of your data out of an RDBMS, you options open up significantly.
For smaller projects. Oracle makes no sense, unless the expectation is vast and rapid growth.
EDIT: Oracle is the most evil corporation in tech. Those who know, know.
Nice. Could you recreate my mess using it? We all carry bad habits and inneficiencies, so I’m down to learn a cleaner, more efficient way.
find dir1 – find something within directory “dir1”
-type f – specifies that what you are looking fir is a file
-name ‘crunk’ – the file name is ‘crunk’
-exec bash -c – for the results, execute bash command
The command executed is move (mv)
‘mv “$0” “${0/crunk/chunk}”’ {} ; – move from crunk to chunk
User @zeppo@lemmy.world is who mentioned the use of “rename”. Mentioning in order to grab their attention.
My guess is that he was doing a “find . | grep filename”, which is a way to output a list of all occurrences within that directory structure, hence why they mentioned grep.





I can’t wait for multikernel based Proxmox VE.
