Is it possible there are other 3rd party repositories that have a more up to date version than the Pop_OS repos?

Not a BBQ expert, but regarding point 2/3 I always cut my chicken breasts in half essentially regardless of how I cook them.

Dumb question, but have you looked at a "complete" list of all SNES games (like this)? If yes, have you watched gameplay of all these games? Should only take a few hours.

EndeavourOS has an i3 version. That's how I started i3, and I'm still running it after almost 2 years. Comes pretty well set up in my opinion.

Manjaro has me dying, lol.

I would recommend learning vim in that case. I'm not sure about the availability of vi(m)/emacs on the systems you remote into, but if I was a betting man I'd say vi is more available than vim is more available than emacs. But if you learn vim and are stuck with vi one time it's still better than nano (for me, but I'm sure you're quite good with nano). Another benefit that extends outside of your text editing experience is that vim motions are offered out of the box for a lot of linux utilities (less) with no setup, or can be trivially added (tmux), which gives you familiar keybinding almost everywhere as well as an improved ergonomic (and likely speed) advantage.

Thanks for the insight. Just to be clear, your suggestion is: auto-update as much stuff as possible and don't worry about it?

WordPress update model? (self.wordpress)
submitted 5 months ago by Buildout to c/wordpress
 

I manage a WordPress site hosted on SiteGround for a friend. The website keeps going down due to updates of some sort or another, and I'm trying to resolve this issue.

SiteGround forces major and minor auto-updates at least every 3 days (if available), and offers the option to autoupdate plugins (which I have on). Inside of the WordPress admin page, none of the plugins are set to auto-update, and I can see some offering to update individually/manually.

My question is this: what is the intended update model for WordPress? Should I just set everything to autoupdate to the extent possible? Although I'm facing issues now, my other software experiences tell me this is a bad idea. I'm used to "update when you want or need a new feature, but nothing will break if you don't", but is this just not how WordPress was designed?

Thanks!

Dying. Works every time first time and they never come back.

Community page says there are 11 posts. When actually viewing the community I see 3. Did they get deleted or is there a bug somewhere?

Solution: Enable "View seen posts" in account settings.

I was going to delete due to the flash glare, but on second thought it looked kinda grimy. Meter boxes right outside of an art store.

 

The print preview is taking about 2 minutes to generate in Firefox, and for the last 15 seconds the entire Firefox window becomes unresponsive. I am only "printing" to a PDF to save, and I have no printers connected to my (modern) laptop.

When I tried on Chrome for comparison, it takes about 30 seconds (still a ridiculous amount of time) but without the freezing behavior.

I tried setting print.prefer_system_dialog to false (which does not generate a preview that I can see), but Firefox still takes just as long to pop up the system dialog and the window still freezes.

I only really care about fixing the problem with Firefox. Any suggestions are welcome, thanks!

Info:

  • Mozilla Firefox 121.0
  • Google Chrome 120.0.6099.129
  • 11th gen Intel laptop on Arch Linux

Tagged pole (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago by Buildout to c/graffiti
 

Clean little tag I saw on a fallen pole.

 

I am getting an error when uploading an image from a local file:

SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

Even after the error the file name appears in the image name section, but when posted no image is actually included. I have seen another similar post to this about a month ago, but OP said issue was fixed (not the case for me on Linux and Firefox). For what it's worth, the issue also appears on Photon (in addition to standard UI).

 

An actual article from an orthopedic practice has some hilarious and troubling phrases, and just generally goes off the rails halfway in.

Some important quotes:

  • "Scumbags should avoid activities that can cause too much pain, such as squats, twisting, running, jumping, or any type of high-impact activity."
  • "In reality, [squats] are not the best way to gain the most muscles. The squat is the best."
  • "deadweight is a type of weight gainer"
  • "the addition of the glutes, glutes, and truncles"
  • "Why is there a woman with the heaviest body?"
  • "think about hip levels lower than shoulders"

The absolute gall to sling garbage like this with (obviously) no proofreading at a time when AI generated text was known to be highly unreliable (2022-10), and then have people entrust their bodies to you. Of course, I'm not condoning using AI blindly now either.
