KDE’s Discover pretty much does what you want in terms of being an all-in-one GUI package manager. If you're comfortable with the terminal, topgrade can upgrade pretty much everything and offers great flexibility is terms of configuration.

Also, a good rule of thumb is that, if you want GUI programs thats show up in “start menu”, search specifically for GUI programs. In this case, that would be something like Peazip. In KDE, the file manager Dolphin can extract stuff for you using Ark, which is installed by default.

I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect CLI programs to appear in the “start menu” because they are usually intended to be launched from the terminal.

These fuckers have done a lot of disservice to feminism. Feminism is supposed to be about equality, not hating men. The only thing that comes from behaving like these is that these men start hating women. No one is benefitting from it, except for maybe the sexist scumbags.

 

I'm sorry but I'm frustrated by the blatant misuse of AI by my students and colleagues alike. It's so obvious when they don't understand what they've written.

Vibe coding is to coding what microwaving is to cooking.

That's me with whiskey and ginger ale.

Hate to victim blame, but what a moron. Microsoft is definitely at fault here, but so is this guy.

He "moved" the data to OneDrive. Why the fuck would anyone do that? He wants to migrate to a new larger drive, but why did he feel the need to delete stuff before verifying that his data has safely been migrated to the new drive? A single drive to store anything important is very dangerous in itself, but this is a different level of stupidity.

I had few TB migration at the start of this year. I vehemently follow the 3-2-1 rule for anything important. (I actually do more copies than that for personal photos and documents.) But I still have the old disks just in case. I can't fathom doing something like this. Maybe I'm overreacting, but ffs it's stupid.

Anyone who thinks trump won't fuck them in an instant is a moron. Especially if they're brown.

What's next? Lead? Arsenic? Radium?

There are many who don't even have that choice. If it's not a stranger, then it's nobody. I know I have people to talk to when I'm down, but it'll be very selfish and will show lack of empathy if I think everyone has that luxury.

That's a stupid product. Also, can't stand this guy. He's extremely obnoxious, shills cloud services, and seems to give opinions about things way out of his expertise.

Did he really? That's kinda surprising. Do you have a link?

Sure, playing chess needs intelligence, dedication, and good chess players are smarter than an average person. But it's waaaay exaggerated in movies. I'm a math researcher, and in any movie, my department will be full of chess geniuses. But in reality, only about 10% of them even play chess.

 

I'm trying to pull manual shots from my Breville Bambino, and it simply isn't working. I'm following the steps in the manual. (Press and hold the double-shot button for pre-infusion, then release it for the extraction to start, and then press again to stop.) The issue is, the machine stops midway, before I press the button. Seems like it's doing the pre-programmed double shot volume, and stopping after that. Does anyone has experience pulling manual shots from this machine? Should I contact Breville for a repair?

Edit: It fixed itself after performing a factory reset.

I currently have a zfs pool with mirrored vdevs, and it's working well. It only has HDDs. I was planning to add an SSD I have lying around as a Metadata Special Device, since I've read that it can improve performance by quite a bit. I've also read that if I do that, and if the special device dies, I lose my pool.

Now, I don't want to buy new SSD pairs for mirroring this one, so is there a way to ensure that the metadata is also stored on the HDD as usual, along with the SSD? I guess I want it to work like a cache for the metadata, and not the only place for it.
