  • For now. Maybe. But look at Prime Video, that offered services for Amazon Prime Customers. Then put stuff behind paid "channels". Then started adding Ads to the start of a movie or episode. And it will water it down even further. Or Spotify that had ads every few songs. Then 2 ads. Then 2 very long ads. Then more ad breaks. Then You bought premium because the ads got more and more annoying. Now you are ad free. Except all the banners. Except the paid promoted Releases that get pushed in all the popular Playlists. Except ads during podcasts. Except "AI shuffle" that mixes in promoted songs.

    The same will happen to YT Premium. Bit by bit ads will be smuggled in. I mean.. right now they promote "Premium light" after (what I've found for European prices) raising prices for premium and family tiers.

  • Why is my tmux borked?
  • It was exactly that. The stupid thing is: I usually shut down my Mac at the end of my workday and on the next day and start everything I need via script and always got funny looks from my co-workers because "you can just close it and keep it running" so I tried it a few days and honestly did not think about restarting because it would have been a fresh start before.

    But now I know there's a tmux server running that I can kill when problems occur and I won't need to reboot Everytime tmux starts acting funny. So at least I learned from being dumb and not thinking about basic trouble shooting steps...

    Why is my tmux borked?

    I've been trying tmux and followed a video that showcases and offers a prebuilt config for styling and plugins. Something happended (guess I did something wrong?) the styling broke and I decided I'll go bare bones and customize to my needs when needed instead of using preconfigured stuff. I deleted all configs and caches I could find with fzf and even reinstalled tmux, but still some broken styling is present and makes it unpleasent to work with. Some of my configs seem to be present even after uninstall, as the prefix is still C-Space instead of the default. There are some oh-my-zsh subfolders that contain tmux. I don't know if those have been there before and I also don't know, if I can delete them without breaking the next thing.

    I'm on a MacBook and installed tmux via brew.

    Texas megachurch pastor resigns after admitting to molestation claims in 1980s
  • The word is 'atheist', you got the e and i mixed up.

    I have not acted like an asshole, I have just pointed out facts, while the other called religion cancer. How am I the supposed asshole? Not giving in to bad arguments is not "acting like an asshole."

    I also do not view anyone beneath me, that's a mean insinuation and most likely the beginning of a fabulous strawman.

    insert themselves in academia where they don't belong

    What would that be an what does that have to do with anything I wrote?

    I hate both religous people and athiests

    Hating people is a bad thing.

  • Old timers know
  • It's perfectly fine for some private page etc. but when you make business software for customers that require 99,9% uptime with severe contractual penalties it's probably too wonky.

  • Old timers know
  • We got our own platform based on kubernetes and cncf stuff and we don't have to care anymore about the metal underneath. AWS? OTC? Azure? Thats just a target parameter, platform does the rest. It's great.

  • A better inner-life is possible without intermixing it with intangible hocus pocus. Calling something "spiritual" or retracting to it beeing "culture" is often used as protection against criticism and I see you do it here. Something can be culture and still be criticized or called out for what it actually is. Slavery has been part of pretty much every culture at some point. Would you call me arrogant when I say it's still inhumane and criminal behaviour? And thats what I do. It's been culture for centuries, but all the time, it was also "taking drugs, feeling like beeing part of something bigger charged with magical thinking".

    edit: All you say about spirituality can be said about religion. It helps people and gives them purpose and has been culture for thousands of years. Yet, you say

    religion is a cancer

    Isn't that way more disrespectful, dismissive and arrogant that what I am doing? Whats your measure here?

  • [OpenSUSE Tumbleweed] Updates and Dependency Hell

    Hi,

    I'm in the weird spot again, where I want to update my Tumbleweed system and am lost in a dependency hell. It more or less occurs once in a while when updates drop and the prompt asks if I want to install stuff from vendor "obs://build.opensuse.org/home:wolfi323" replacing the obsolete stuff from the official openSUSE vendor.

    As soon as I read wolfi323, I get fucking Vietnam flashbacks, because it means I will have to decide for ~100 services if I keep the current obsolote version or install the one from wolfi323. Either way, it's gonna fuck up a myriad of dependencies.

    All that hassle just to do the same shit all over again because at some point, the official opensuse repos catch up with newer versions.

    I could probably wait for the official updates, but it's uncertain, when they are going to drop and I'll just pile up thousands of updates in the meantime.

    How do the Tumbleweed Folks among us deal with this?

    [OpenSuSE Tumbleweed] Move installed packages with zypper

    I just noticed, that my SSD is almost full and I think it is because of all the zypper packages I got installed. I've got another ~100gb SSD thats just for stuff (mounted unter "Misc" says it all) and would like to move some (or all?) of the packages like vscode, podman or other stuff on that second SSD. Is there a way to do that with zypper without removing and installing them again under the new path?
