Race conditions can make you a racist,
If you

1. Are behind the wheel of a racecar
2. You are on a racetrack

Then there’s no nice way to say it, you might be a racist, drive safe

400? Seconds or years?

Firefox has built-in cookie-deletion when you close the browser/tab, it’s under settings/privacy i believe

I heard a guy saying that linux was trash, he had tried it once but it didn’t have drivers for anything and what did exist was difficult to install
So I asked him when it was that he tried it

I think he said something like 1998…

“So this here is a rock”
“Uhh, in english please?”

Internet solipsism; you realize you’re the only real person on the internet

Edit: solipsism probably isn’t the right word, i think i heard a word for this but can’t recall what it was

Shitting on windows is the most Linux thing you can do

Display manager I thought the d stood for Desktop, but i’m thinking of de, i see i’ve been mixing up terms, i’ve also been under the incorrect understanding that window managers and desktop environments were mutually exclusive, e.g. a desktop environment like xfce would conflict with a window manager like i3

Those scripts look cleaner than mine, perhaps i should give it another go, i’m currently on ubuntu, but many of the packets being 15 years out of date is starting to get annoying, i miss aur with its [xxx]-git packages

Quickswitch or automatic switch to a different profile, i often found myself enabling an external display and disabling the built-in one, then when packing down my laptop i forgot to manually configure the built in, meaning when i got home i had a laptop with a blank screen, Sometimes i was able to log in, open a terminal and enable the screen, other times i would have to reboot it. Something that could automatically enable the builtin if no external display is connected would’ve gone a long way for my usecase (my attempts at writing scripts for that never worked from what i recall, something got messed up when going to sleep)

Doesn’t xfce use a dm? What kind of display configuration does it give? A gui for manually configuring the layout or something more?

Based on my search when i looked into arandr earlier, and also my search now, it cannot :( looks like it’s just a graphical interface for xrand

But looks like there’s a different project, autorandr, that looks promising, it won’t automatically run when a display is connected or disconnected, but that’s easy enough to do with an udev rule or something

Until now, i care a ton!
Oh wait, “Nobody who matters”
dang, nevermind

mister_monster seems to suggest it is though

Aren’t there any applications that can automatically manage displays? Many dms let you cycle through "only primary, “only secondary”, “mirrored” “side by side”, is that something that has to be built in to the wm/dm?

Is that something arandr can do? I couldn’t get it to do anything useful, so i ended up writing some scripts on top of xrandr to do it

I’ve only tried EndeavourOS with the i3 wm, it was better than setting it up myself from scratch, but it still left a lot to be desired (in particular; no way to deal with external displays as far as i could tell, except using xrandr)

But i guess it’s more focused on the desktop manager options?

How much is a “substantial amount”? There’s not thaaat much porn on e621, most of it is marked safe
Well a lot of it is…
Well some of it is…
I’m relatively sure i saw one marked safe once…

Haven’t had it happen to me, but a guy i know dealt with it but saying “no don’t touch it, it doesn’t bother me”

His screen got covered in porn whenever he turned out on, hot singles in his area…

I had an update take like 20 minutes

Though that was primarily caused by the machine having like 200kBps download speed

I also use arch btw

Upgraded my 1 EndeavourOS machine 5 times today.
Didn’t reboot and all was fine.

I had a similar error, though not from the compiler
Error message just read this should never happen
