I can’t find where your comment is. Can you please add a red circle so I can read it?

Here is a basic way to configure the service:

But this method has significant drawbacks and probably won’t work for most use cases, so do what works for you.

[-] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 44 points 1 year ago

No other info whatsoever.

And then you go hunting for other people's config files.

[-] kibiz0r@midwest.social 32 points 1 year ago

And those configs are clearly the result of someone else stitching together three different examples from different versions, with some settings that are silently ignored in the latest version or only exist when compiled with special flags.

[-] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 year ago

But hey, it works for them, so 🤷... they have no idea how BTW, but it does work...

Computers are as much ritual and magic as they are understanding. The Tech Priests of WH40k had the right of it.

“Just follow the build instructions on GitHub”

1000 error messages ensue.

[-] ChapulinColorado@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago

That’s your own darn fault. You were supposed to know the 0.0.1 version was GA instead of assuming 0.0.3-alpha was stable. You would have known if you read the 2000 line README. On the second dependency there is no README though, so just use the latest and hope it’s still compatible.

[-] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 year ago

Last commit 8 years ago "Updated for Linux 4.5"

[-] lennivelkant@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 year ago

Then do some digging and find that the GitHub instructions omitted some particular dependency, make a mental note to contribute a PR to the documentation later once you've got it working, get it working, promptly forget contributing that documentation, move distro later, try to reinstall the same program, make the same mistake, same discovery, learn nothing, repeat ad nauseam.

I'm trying to learn Houdini. I thought, "Oh, I'll just download a template and see how it should look."

Even already-made templates are apparently out-of-my-depth.

OpenSUSE microOS guys be like

"Just gotta enable the OEIS menu in the .sysbin folder and it'll make that program CHIM, that should solve your problem"

What it looks like when I ask "how do I put Cura on the taskbar"

[-] Macros@discuss.tchncs.de 28 points 1 year ago

I don't know why such answers get so many upvotes.

The real answer is: Right-click -> Pin to Taskbar. (In sane desktop environments like KDE. If you choose to install Fancy DE Alpha 0.0.2, you know what you got into!)

Yeah we are in a meme community, still I like my memes based on reality, makes them way funnier.

(Also having a standard place for documentation for everything is a blessing!)

[-] accideath@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Sure but it’s not a rarity that forum answers expect you to be very familiar with linux file structures and terminal commands. If you’re a beginner who runs into an issue (as beginners do), you oftentimes need to find a tutorial and then tutorials that explain the tutorial. It gets even worse if you’re not on a debian/ubuntu based distro (although, to be fair, if you’re a newbie, that’s sorta asking for trouble).

I'm concerned if CHIM is what I think it is, I don't think I want the computer doing that.

You don't want your computer to gain incredible, godlike powers?

This is some unnecessary red circle shit right here.

[-] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 year ago

But look how pretty it is 😊.

[-] Shadywack@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Clearly added for emphasis, crucial instructions, we might mistake for other instructions in the picture.

[-] variants@possumpat.io 23 points 1 year ago

As someone who works in manufacturing this makes prefect sense and wish more instructions were this clear

[-] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

How 🤨... tighten, but don't...

[-] Petter1@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago

Tighten them but tighten them not too much but make sure not to tighten them too less, I guess

[-] babybus@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

Tighten but don't overtighten them, probably.

If you did tighten, DO NOT LOOSEN.

[-] leftzero@lemmynsfw.com 18 points 1 year ago
[-] medicsofanarchy@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Clear your mind. Simply "be" the screws. Do not aim for completion, for one is never complete. Also, it's upside-down.

[-] untorquer@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

It's hard enough to express this in a first language

Don't use sudo to run this command, but do so if it doesn't work. Using sudo may break your system.

[-] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

The sudo thing should really be explained like "if you want this implemented system wide, run it with sudo, if not, don't use it".

I did not think there was that much to tightening. I read the whole damn thing.

[-] frezik@midwest.social 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

If you love that, NASA has a whole 100 page PDF about fasteners:

https://ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citations/19900009424/downloads/19900009424.pdf

One particularly notable part is about split lock washers. They're useless, often detrimental, and need to go away. NASA said so in 1990 and there's no reason to think this has changed.

[-] ian@feddit.uk 8 points 1 year ago

English is slightly ambiguous here. As tighten has 2 meanings. Turning a screw clockwise is to tighten it, as opposed to loosen it anticlockwise. But it's quite loose. Finally, to make it tight and secure, you tighten it with one last turn.

[-] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

Shouldn't "screw in the screw" be used instead of "tighten the screw" when you're just inserting it fully but not tightening it?
