Tramort,

Is hardlink the same as ln without the -s switch?

I tried reading the page but it’s not clear

Tramort,

Ahh! Cool! Thanks for the explanation.

How is everyone handling the 2FA requirement for GitHub? (docs.github.com)

Just wondering what people are using to meet the 2FA requirement GitHub has been rolling out. I don’t love the idea of having an authenticator app installed on my phone just to log into GitHub. And really don’t want to give them my phone number just to log in....

Tramort,

It’s fine. The added security is huge

The problem is when they want you to install their TOTP app in order to authenticate (I’m looking at you, steam… fuck off)

Tramort,

Oh, that’s awesome!

But I don’t have root

Tramort,

GitHub is not an offender right now, but I can easily imagine Microsoft forcing some MS OTP app in the future

Tramort,

It’s not that the app is good or bad. It’s that you are FORCED to use it when there is no technical reason for that requirement.

Let me reiterate: fuck valve

Tramort,

Thank you!!

Tramort,

You may be grieving two different things

One is the permanent loss of any possibility of receiving the parental love that every child deserves.

The second is the actual human being that was your parent.

Separate the two.

Grieving the first does not require you to grieve the second.

And remember that there are no "should"s in grief: we might grieve over something that has no logic behind it, and we might not grieve when someone else thinks we should.

Ignore all of that.

Focus on what your grief is telling you is important, and use any future opportunity for growth to grow in that direction.

It’s all that any of us can do.

Tramort,

How many dice did you test, and can we see the rest of the spreadsheet?

Tramort,

This assumed you only tested one die.

If OP tested a thousand dice, and this is the one that came out on the bottom, then it’s incredibly likely it’s just random because of how many dice were tested.

MULTIPLE COMPARISON CHANGES THE RULES OF STATISTICAL HYPOTHESIS TESTING, and the OP is giving us a single result from multiple comparisons which are censored.

Probably an innocent mistake, but not valid.

Tramort,

Do you have to use Earth or can you model a hypothetical planet?

Tramort,

It looks cool! Thanks!

Tramort,

Right?

“You’ve selectively chosen the evidence that is most damning, but it’s an incomplete picture!”

“That’s correct. This is an adversarial legal proceeding, where we select and present the most compelling evidence of guilt, and you select and present the most exculpatory evidence… would you like to present any evidence?”

“No thanks, we rest.”

Tramort,

I didn’t know what leap was, and the news release didn’t tell me.

Going to the website says that it’s a “brand new way of building openSUSE and a new type of a hybrid Linux distribution”

I’m still not sure what that means, but that’s all I got.

Tramort,

“threat” is just competition, right?

Fine 'em, EU!

Tramort,

So gross.

Genocide, theft, and piracy.

Tramort,

You’re getting a lot of good advice. Whatever distro you decide to use, try to find a live CD that lets you use it on the PC without installing it. That should ease your mind tremendously.

Tramort,

I really like your posts; thank you.

Can you help me understand how atomic distros work when you need to, for example, install a small script which is unsupported in the packaging, but takes liberties by creating folders or assuming some kind of file structure?
