I wouldn't want to sully my repo with something as useful as a gitignore.

I understand the frustration get how annoying it is but I also can see it from leah perspective. Honestly I think this is a misunderstanding and I don't think anyone is trying to be toxic (at least not initially. The your work was shit comment is rude af)

This may not be what you want to hear but I think you should consider whether all this argument and feeling bad is worth the potential upside. What happened was shitty but you shouldn't let this ruin your day.

Can someone explain to me why github apparently has bad UX/UI? I always thought the UI has gotten really good over the years.

[Edit] Like there this huge argument in these comments about the release button being all wrong. ??? No clue what people have against it. I thought it was fine? You can use it or not. People link to it if they want it more prominent. Someone explain?

[Edit 2] Also what's up with the people who are vehemently against uploading bins to GitHub releases. This is literally what github is doing on their own repos. Not trying to say that anyone should feel obligated to release bins (CI/CD is a literal job title). People are releasing software for free because they want to. Let's not look a gift horse in the mouth.

Idk I'm gonna stop reading this thread. its driving me crazy.

Oh metaprogramming! I'm doing a dissertation on this.

My thoughts on this? I think people should care less about what software other people use.

Man, display servers look hard to develop and I'm glad we have two amazing/successful projects to choose between! I think the devs who work on X are doing an amazing job and it's amazing to see how passionate the devs/users are for Wayland.

If bobby tables likes to use x because they know how it works and are comfortable with it, let them work with x! If you think it's okay to judge/pester/shame people because some software they choose to use, shame on you! In the end, does it really matter what you use.

Log in as root to avoid trying to make sure no files in /home/ are being read/written to.

Step 1: copy data to new drive. Mount new drive to /mnt/. cp -ra /home/* /mnt/. -a means that all permissions remain the same which will mean that your user can still read them. Check the man page for more details. This command will take a while. Use -v to see progress. You should see a folder with your username appear.

Step 2. Prepare /home for new drive. Move the files to a new folder. This is done to make sure you can still easily go back. mv /home/ /home-bak/ keep your old home dir safe in case a mistake was made. mkdir /home/.

Step 3. Mount your new drive. Mount your drive to /home/ and check if you can login. If everything went correctly, you should be able to just login. Finally you need to update your /etc/fstab to include this new drive. This will make sure your home drive mounts when you start your os. If everything is working, you can delete your home-bak as well.

feels like an ai image. Something feels uncanny and not quite right

Why wrap a CLI tool in a docker container? Wouldn't it be simpler to directly compile nyancat to multiple architectures if the goal is to make it run on all platforms?

Me too melon. me too.

Check your storage connection! If storage disconnects, your OS will freeze and stop responding to the keyboard. Also, the os won't be able to write any logs because the storage isn't attached. Even power off won't work because the os can't read any files. This feels very similar to your problem.

For me, my motherboard had a faulty drive controller which would randomly stop working and drives would no longer appear connected.

I'm not sure whether you have the same issue as me but it has the same characteristics as mine. Hope this helps!
