  1. Wrote a silly script to showcase how to use unshare + chroot/pivot_root in order to manually enter a / without needing privileges:

    gist.github.com/mid-kid/9293f4

    I rarely see anyone mention how this can be done without needing to reach for or systemd-nspawn, and I think it's important to see how you can leverage the primitives that drive container technology.

    The script can be simplified, but not without sacrificing correctness. I hope the comments help.

  2. What's better than a screenshot? A desktop snapshot!

    I spent a couple of months creating a set of scripts to build a image out of my install, with all the packages, patches and configurations it involves.

    Doing this allows me to create an archive of not only what my desktop looks like, but what it *feels* like. keeps changing, and with it, my setup. It's hard to bring back old configs.

    Check it out: github.com/mid-kid/RocketISO/b

  3. There is now an interesting guide by @mid_kid (mid-kid.root.sx/git/mid-kid/bo) on installing from just source and a tiny 200 byte kernel. At the moment it's a bit longish and starts with then pivots to to obtain 64-bit toolchain and finally bootstraps from there.

    Potentially some steps could be optimized, and removed but it works.

At the moment it's a bit longish and starts with #livebootstrap then pivots to #LFS to obtain 64-bit toolchain and finally bootstraps #Gentoo from there.

    Potentially some steps could be optimized, and #LFS removed but it works.

  7. Now here's something really special - I don't come across things so refreshingly kewl this often. I follow and test with AlienBob's Ktown endowed LiveSlack CDs but I've been running my own installed from scratch Slackware -current workstations (or moving them to new machines) that I've continued maintain w/bleeding edge software for many years.

    This is more like the latter (My warm and fuzzy, just how I like it, personal OS install) than the former (LiveSlack CD) - You're getting the benefit of seeing how someone else sets up their machine to incorporate their daily business flow, with all the kewl tweaks and progs right there for you to moll over. You can run it as/is or take it as a starting point to diverge from, incorporating your own style and improvements for years to come.

    You prolly wanna bookmark this for sure and I know that I'mma spin this up myself this week!

    A couple of things that I feel are pertinent to mention:

    - You start off with a running system, like any #LiveCD, but already tweaked with plenty of customization and integrations to make this a plug and play daily driver right out of the gate.
    - It's a great way to skip over the parts that led you to believe it was too much work to justify getting started with #Gentoo.

  10. Make script kiddy a company role.

  11. I grew up at the perfect time to be an annoying twat with ASDFmovie references when I was young, and join the boomers in annoying the now kids with six seven.

  12. Sticking "caution! high voltage" stickers on my PCBs like it's a badge of honor

  13. I'm going to cry, piss my pants, shit AND cum

  14. The problems were there from the beginning - yes, they solved the service problem by being more convenient than the alternatives, but while I had no idea in which ways they were going to abuse their positions, they were always going to be the arbiters of what you would see and listen to, as well as how you would be allowed to access it. As someone big into free software, no interoperability was just never going to cut it. Similarly, there was always going to be a subset of media unavailable...

  15. As someone who's never purchased a streaming subscription, seeing influencers and publications wake up to "maybe streaming is bad actually" and act like it's a trendy lifestyle by driving up the price of iPods and PSPs, is wild.

  16. Your Hours in April

  17. (real talk, this setting is great for everything except /var and /home, just mount those separately as subvolumes)

  18. Mount your btrfs partitions with compress-force=zlib:9 . Nobody has ever regretted mounting their btrfs partitions with compress-force=zlib:9

  19. Shoutouts to the type of that makes it blatantly obvious there were supposed to be sex scenes, and it doesn't take much digging to find the author's patreon or w/e where they keep the NSFW bits.

  21. Reminder to plug your old and dusty cartridges into your console occasionally, to avoid them corrupting themselves over time!
    Ideally, you can verify them using this tool: gbatemp.net/threads/corrupted-

    My copy of smash was behaving wonkily (hanging at random moments, mostly), and even though I've managed to get into a fight, the tool is finding many other bad blocks and fixing them :)

    Really happy to learn that fandoms are alive and well ♥️

  28. TIL still makes new PIC18 designs with modern peripherals like I3C, cheap development boards, and even a DIP option. Hard to find exact dates but the one I'm looking at (PIC18-Q20) lists 2021 in the copyright.
