  • As a Brit (but European at heart and strong “Remain” voter), I am quick to remind fellow Brits that English is a language heavily derived from our European ancestors: French, Latin, Germanic (Proto-Germanic, “Old English”, Old Norse, Romance, etc), Greek, Dutch, Spanish, and more.

    I know the United Kingdom has been a royal asshat throughout the centuries but the mark of Europe is intense and undeniable; without Europe, there is no such thing as the English language (except perhaps a number of proper nouns that are rooted in the Celtic people and their ancestors) [Edit: see crappywittyname’s comment below].

    I hope our European siblings can find solace in the fact that “English” is a distinctly European language that is full of words from all of our tongues.

  • If it’s any consolation, it’s Nintendo’s Legal team that are really rolling with it. There’s hope they’ll recognise they’re hurting their brand and Legal’s leadership will be kicked to the curb.

    Don’t blame their developers - they likely have nothing to do with it, even Game Freak.

  • That means you probably ran a few commands.

    The first will have added the GPG public encryption key of the package signers to your system so that your system trusts the key and can validate the package is signed by the trusted key.

    The second command will have added the vscodium package sources to apt (the package manager for Ubuntu) so that your package manager is aware of where to find the vscodium package.

    Finally, the last command will have updated apt so it knows of the newly added package sources as well as installed vscodium via your system’s package manager.

  • I went wild and started using it for servers about 5 years ago and I shit you not, it’s far more stable than I would have thought. I parse the blog for update notes if there’s any big changes to anything I’m using but given most stuff is offloaded to containers, I pretty much yolo a yay -Syu every week. Zero issues.

    I had more issues with Debian and Ubuntu due to bugs in stale packages or weird default configs than I have running bleeding edge vanilla via Arch.

  • I lived on a mixture of Lynx, Links2, and Browsh when I first lived on my own as I couldn’t afford internet so I used a friend’s who lived down the road. As I had to use a huge antenna to get signal, I suffered slow speeds and packet loss so I spent a couple of years in text-based browsers.

    I got so used to it, I used Browsh for a while after I got internet access to my rental as I can grown quite attached to a terminal-only system and ditching DEs and WMs.
