Building Vim from source is pretty damn easy. cd vim && make && sudo make install. Just need to be careful not to run it by accident, or you'll be restarting Linux From Scratch from scratch.
The face is priceless.
Yeah they got to the section on Nvidia drivers.
Thats a sysadmin expression for sure. He has a glorious future ahead of him, and many sleepness nights.
Don't be afraid: Debian will make you cozy and warm.
Debian? Did you see the title of that book? "Linux from Scratch". Clearly its a Gentoo guide book.
Clearly it's an LFS guide book... LFS isn't Gentoo.
Clearly, it all comes to Debian.
I'd like a Romeo & Juliet story where one house uses VI and the other Emacs.
What if you use both?
Modern psychiatry doesn't have the answer yet.
Blasphemy!

We're only in the second week, so there's not much I've learned yet, but I'm taking a Linux class (for cybersec, so we're using Kali VMs), and I'm honestly excited. I already know some basics due to using Fedora as my daily driver, but I never took the time to properly learn Linux, so this class will help me to be power user and maybe fix my own shit more (Or at least troubleshoot better).
We did open vi for a short bit and yes, we did not know how to exit π
Are you doing a QA "bootcamp" or does everyone do things the same?
I'm not really sure what "QA bootcamp" means, are you talking like how people do cert boot camps? Cause no, it's an actual class where we follow instructions to do labs/simulations and the occasional quiz. There's no special test to prepare for afaik.
Babies first Distro.
And when 2 repositories love each other very muchβ¦
They fall out over a minor implementation detail and get forked.
Marital breakups always end with someone getting forked.
This is me, both the dad and the baby. Sometimes either, sometimes both at the same time. And almost never knowing beforehand which I'll end up as at the end.
Linux from Scratch?...
I'll just be here with my cozy mint π
If you like this book, you should also check out: "The cat in Redhat" and "ripgrep and PAM".
I'm a big fan of the "For Babies" series. Picked up Evolution, Quantum Mechanics and Organic Chemistry for my daughter.
