@gnate If this were DS9, she could be Kira, who could also be very violent. Uncle Deadly could be Garek. Kermit as Odo. Gonzo and Rizzo as the Ferengis. Fozzi as Miles. Sisko, naturally, would be Avery Brooks.

@crazyeddie @theowashere @stx @AndrewRadev They're absolutely right. As a millennial with Gen Z kids, Gen Z likes neither avocado nor toast. They subsist solely on brand recognition and calling the music of my youth "oldies".
I went to check up on PowerDNS Admin, a tool I use for managing my DNS. I knew they were working on a rewrite.
It's now called DNSMin. It went from a single container giving me a UI and data stored in SQLite to 6 containers that need to be built when you deploy them with Docker compose.
They want to target big DNS deployments, and that's not what I need. I just want a little home DNS server that I can easily manage instead of writing DNS records by hand for BIND.

@EricBono@beige.party @adhdeanasl@beige.party Yeah. It's highly suspicious when blood is missing from a meeting.
I need to find me some in person friends so I can play TTRPGs again. Is there a special bait or something I can use?
My wife and I got last minute tickets to Sleuth at the Guthrie last night. It was fantastic, and the cast crushed it. I did not see the ending coming.

@kevin This is for Bash specifically. Each shell works a bit differently.
For login shells (interactive or not), it runs /etc/profile, then ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile.
For interactive non-login shells, it runs ~/.bashrc.
For non-interactive non-login shells, you have to set BASH_ENV to a script to run before you run Bash. You need to give the full path of the script, I think.
If you are running a script or command over sshd (rather than logging in and interacting with commands as usual), it'll run ~/.bashrc.
Here's the doc page: https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Bash-Startup-Files.html

@maxleibman Plus, if it does what you need, use it. I recommended it to my daughter who will never use Linux, but still wants a computer to do school work.
I would like to follow more illustrators and artists. Send me your favorites!

@crazyeddie @theowashere @stx @AndrewRadev You're right. You're right. It's the only thing I eat. Which is why I can't afford houses, cars, jewelry, restaurants, and all the other industries that my generation has destroyed. Leaving nothing but smoke and gauc in my wake.
@alice I was half expecting that third one to go:
Alice: I'm openly queer so others know they're not alone.
Bob: If you're openly queer, then only the bad guys will be straight.

@ajroach42 I don't think I can go an hour without someone (usually multiple people) singing in my house.
Maybe the fediverse has the answer. I have Python scripts on a Linux server that I am running as a service account. They need packages from PyPI for the script to work, and the account does not have a home directory. How should I handle the virtual environment for that?

@realhackhistory@chaos.social I can't say for the other two, but I bet Cereal is the Ghost of Christmas Present.
I'm not sure Heathcliff is intended to be strictly funny. It feels more like an avant garde / surreal sort of strip these days. What with his helmets, strange costumes, and animated milk jugs.

@flowcontrol@phpc.social I never trust anything time based. It's all just pretty close enough in my book.
I'm in the GM part of the Cortex Prime. The author leans in *real* hard into the cinematic metaphor. Every session is broken down into scenes and then beats. Cinema terminology is everywhere.
The suggestions for when to end scenes feels kind of awkward. One suggestion if characters are at a stalemate is to end the scene and start a new one with the same conflict. And that just, doesn't make sense. They even have weird shit like "very special episodes" and sessions that were all a dream.
The Pathways method of character creation seems like a neat idea.
Got myself a copy of Cortex Prime. I'm pretty excited about the modular system. I've heard good things, and I'm hoping it'll fit some ideas I have while still being approachable.

@rwg@aoir.social It provides a lot of convenience. I use it on my NAS instead of installing a NAS-specific OS.
Replying to
@enriquericos It's not a Windows-specific feature. Linux can do secure boot as well to make sure your boot partition wasn't tampered with.

@Canageek I use Chimera Linux. I decided to try it because it's a little weird. The maintainers tried to rethink what a modern Linux distro should look like, and selected the parts to accomplish that.
They use the Alpine package tools. Dinit for service management. FreeBSD Userland tools.
I like it because I tend to gravitate towards to novel ideas. It's not choosing pieces for moral or political reasons. It's looking at things practically, and making choices that would best benefit its users.

@theresmiling Are you wanting to expose it to the public internet? Are you using an off the shelf NAS or wanting to build something?

@luyin That would be nice, but it installs everything in a home directory and the user that is running this does not have one.

@ii_infinitum@mastodon.social I've pretty much just always used used and refurbished laptops. Mostly Thinkpads and Thinkbooks. I'm happy with them, and the only bit that doesn't work is the fingerprint reader.
Granted, I do pretty tame things on them. No fancy graphics things and such.

@kevin Then Debian is probably doing something before it gets to your .bashrc.I think maybe in /etc/bash.bashrc (but that might just be Ubuntu...).
If you're willing to switch to Zsh, they have the .zshenv file. It is always ran in every shell, and is ran first.

@paul_ipv6@infosec.exchange @stux@mstdn.social I was only able to buy my first house because I was buying it under market value from a friend who was moving and needed to free up a government loan program by selling it.
I would not be a home owner right now otherwise.
Replying to
@txtechnician It's relevant because several solutions I've found or have been recommended assumes a home folder. uv for examples installs itself and all the packages in the home folder, and I'm not confident in what will happen if I override those locations.
Using the distro packages would work, but a few of them are not present.
I was mostly seeing if there was already a best practice for how to handle virtual environments for non-user accounts.
