I have to use SQL at work enough that I just use that for any database I need for personal projects, almost always MariahDB. Helps me stay current on my skills I guess.
I had MRSA once, it’s so easy to spread and there is zero doubt in my mind that it could be weaponized. Criminal investigations are necessary after TWO whistleblowers are offed. I’m not holding my breath though. Boeing is too entrenched in the MIP to be investigated in any real sense of the word.
I am also an IT nerd that hikes as much as I can, when the weather permits. Too many of my local trails have decent reception so I have to just forget my phone exists for a while.
I have one of these in a box somewhere, maybe I should dig it out and see if the battery is still good.
I’ve never noticed an appreciable performance hit, but I also don’t generally swap much. Most of the time on a desktop/workstation I’m surprised to see a gig or 2 in swap. Nvme drives are pretty fast. If you are actually using swap space on a regular basis it might be worth it to upgrade RAM or use a dedicated drive for swap if necessary. I remember btrfs having swap file issues but the details are fuzzy, these days I use zfs on my nas and ext4 everywhere else.

I call them swap files but either is correct.
A swap partition is a part of your storage disk that is formatted for swap use. It could also be it’s own disk for high performance systems, but mostly for HPC.
A swap file is basically an empty disk image file that you mount as swap, the OS will use it just like a swap partition.
I prefer swap files because I find them easier to manage. I can easily delete, move, or enlarge the swap file whereas the partition will take a bit more work and is a bit riskier to change. Changing partition layouts can get very messy.
I always recommend a swap file be created when setting up a new Linux machine, even if you have loads of RAM. Some applications will use swap space to help performance, but I also like the fact that if I do something really dumb and fill up the root partition I can delete my swap file to free up space immediately, fix the full disk problem, and then recreate the swap file.
This is also how I read the meme. Codes are fine, tokens are fine. Your proprietary spyware app is NOT fine (Microsoft) and I hope you get fucked.
But on Ubuntu I don’t have to use the terminal to update my apps?
Hi. It’s me. The guy bitching about best practices every other meeting. Sorry, but some of my past and present coworkers are clowns.
Oh yeah robes are totally not hats, so it’s fine.
Obviously Glenda. You can tell by the lack of hat.
Have you tried it? How is stability?
I’ll second this, stupid good battery life but a fairly simple watch. Doesn’t do apps but it does health tracking and notifications and it’s pretty good at looking like a watch instead of a toy.
That’s fair. I don’t think I personally use ligatures anywhere and I’m not experiencing any issues with foot after using it for a few years so I might just have to stay blissfully ignorant on this one ;)
What do you use ligatures for?
Scribus has been around for a while, their UI looks like older versions of Microsoft Office. If you hover over the icon it will tell you what it does.
Maybe I’m older than you but scribus feels like comfort food, it isn’t loud and flashy and lets me focus on my work. I really don’t like the gigantic touch friendly buttons on desktop apps personally, so I hope they don’t go that way.
I cannot see any settings to change the toolbar size but I’m not a scribus wizard either.
What distro ships my favorite term foot?
That’s actually pretty awesome. Bluetooth speakers are getting to the point where new features aren’t really being released, so features like this actually helps a brand stand apart.
If anyone believes anything Nadella says they are already drunk on the Kool aid
