I couldn’t tell from the picture, but she looks a lot fatter.

I might be ootl on this one. Who is she?

In my head canon, Pippin helped gandalf avoid this fate.

Or soda. Or sugary drinks in general.

It’s called git. It’s been distributed from day 1. GitHub was an attempt to centralize it.

There is one big caveat to universal time:

Future dates: If you use utc here and a time zone definition changes, you’re boned. You have to store local time and offset for just this one usecase.

I have been using unstable on desktop for at least 15 years. Every time a new stable was released that would cause a month of just staying off updates till things stabilized. Recently it’s not even had that issue.

I’ve had to pin a package or two in that time, but unstable has been rock solid otherwise. I even run it on my server.

MS DOS v4.somthing. (1995)

Slackware that came on three 5.25" floppies. (1997)

First hard drive Linux: Debian.

Eventually red hat for several years, then back to Debian based (mint etc) around 2005. Been using Sid (Debian “unstable”) for a long time.

The original saying is “If at once you don’t succeed, try, try again.”

So yes, try exactly two more times.

There are no Linux gatekeepers. There are assholes everywhere, that’s the human condition. I came across these assholes and I learnt that I should take advice and consider it myself.

If you close your brain and listen to random online people without thought, you’ll have a bad time, Linux or no Linux.

This stereotype of people in Linux or open source as assholes is FUD spread by people who have a vested interest in spreading it.

I’ve found people mostly very helpful and courteous.

You picked a Hitchcock frame as a meme and didn’t go for one from Birds. Shame!

Edit

Time to replace Philosoraptor with Sarcastiopteryx.

I have been running sid (unstable) on my desktop since 2013. I’ve had maybe 4 issues in all those years. This is through multiple ram, diak, power supply, motherboard upgrades. It just runs fine.

Everyone who thinks they are in the bottom right, is in the bottom left.

Not sure if it maps to your requirements exactly, but check out the UHK:

I have a v1 and a v2. Very happy with both.

Existing established open source projects? Basically never.

My own piles of shit with open source licenses? All the time.

The point I was trying to make is you can choose the mood (or the mindset) with which to face your current circumstances.

Either what you face is a situation or a problem. By definition a problem has a solution and a situation does not. If it’s a problem (there is a solution) you work on the solution. If it is a situation (there is no solution) you can’t change it, so just accept it and move on.

I find that I get joy everyday from the little things - tasty food, good company and nature. I don’t let the big things dictate my mood.

Life is what you pretend it is. A study found that a year after a life changing event (losing a limb/winning a lottery) most people were not any more or less sad.

You can consider that you are a forgotten one of billions of on a tiny speck of rock lost in the vast swathes of space-time and so nothing you do matters.

Or you can consider that all that space-time and other stuff has about as much influence on your life as your life has on it and choose to ignore it and enjoy the life you have free of consequences.

Or anything in between.

The only constant is that life is short. What do you want to do with your limited time?

I noticed that upper case select, drop etc are not prohibited.
