if OP is using gentoo then there is a very real chance they aren’t able to take screenshots yet.
back in my gentoo days it took a while to get that set up. although it wasn’t exactly a top priority

everything is simple once you know how to do it. i think a lot of the arch recommenders likely don’t realize how difficult some of these things can be the first time. it’s the same with any kind of specialized knowledge i think. it’s one of the reasons why teaching can be difficult. but the arch community has been super helpful in my experience
please don’t make me read another bjarne book. the last time i read one it made me want to stop programming
C++ is a bazooka that only fires when it’s pointed at your feet
what if i want to answer the question but i have none of the relevant knowledge and also don’t really understand the question itself?


it feels like monopolies have become so common and widespread that companies are starting to forget that sometimes you can lose customers after raising prices.
i gave up on gentoo when the updates started making my laptop so hot that i had to point my bedroom fan at it in college. i was thinking of doing LFS but by that point gentoo was turning into such a headache and i wanted something simpler. i switched to arch afterwards, but now i mainly just use macos and let tim handle all that stuff for me. although i’m tempted to try arch again when im done with grad school and have more time
mine as well. it was awful
i think the gentoo pacman looking guy is cool
computer science exams must have been so easy for you
i chose my first linux distro based on difficulty (gentoo). needless to say it took me two weeks to get my computer to boot up and load i3 without problems.
we’ll be done with it exactly when the next fad picks up steam


it also bothers me when people say “my algorithm” to refer to the thing that recommends posts to them. people shouldn’t ever say “my algorithm” unless they personally own a copy of the kick-ass prog-metal band
it is possible to rigorously say that 1/0 = ∞. this is commonly occurs in complex analysis when you look at things as being defined on the Riemann sphere instead of the complex plane. thinking of things as taking place on a sphere also helps to avoid the “positive”/“negative” problem: as |x| shrinks, 1 / |x| increases, so you eventually reach the top of the sphere, which is the point at infinity.


running copilot on a 95 or 98 server would make even less sense


how could it be installed on a 2022 server if copilot launched in 2023?


Will uninstall actually get rid of it?
maybe for a couple months


i would like to give it another try at some point because it seems like it will probably feel really nice to use once i get the hang of it. but the lack of documentation is pretty rough.
i also think that for nixos, a lack of documentation is a much more difficult thing to overcome. other distros can piggyback off the arch documentation for most things, but that doesn’t work as well for nixos.


i think i would’ve probably had to package the specific kind of vim that i needed, because i wanted neovim and a gui too or something. this was also like 3-4 years ago so its possible the documentation for this kind of stuff has considerably improved since i tried, or that there are now packages that make this sort of thing easier. and it’s definitely possible everything existed at the time and i just couldn’t figure it out.
but i ended up with a similar feeling to the one you described: stuff is easy when you do it their way, using their tools; but things are very hard to do if you deviate from the path.
i know this is just sort of an inevitable part of the design paradigm they use, and that everything probably works very nicely if you learn their language and the various ins and outs of the operating system, but i just wasn’t willing to commit that much to it.
this feature will be entirely optional until microsoft realizes nobody in their right mind would enable it
