I use master because I’m nostalgic. If it matters that much, though, I’ll start using trunk (like we used to back in the days of SVN).

What’s the problem with running an older OSX? https://github.com/blueboxd/chromium-legacy

I am running 10.6. Chromium Legacy is for 10.7 and above, and the same is true of a lot of software. Meanwhile, on my Linux partition, I can have Firefox Nightly if I want. It’ll run heavily, but it’s possible.

As it happens, I do have a somewhat recent browser installed in OSX, but it’s not great.

Also, running an older OS like that isn’t a good idea, as it won’t have received security patches or microcode updates.

That’s the thing, you can run a 64-bit distro as long as you’ve a 32 bit grub starting it :)

I hadn’t quite considered that somebody had implemented this. Thanks for the info!

There was also another user who gave me a link to some software that modifies mixed-mode ISOs so that they will boot on my potato laptop.

Whoa! Thank you!

I use Zsh with the Oh My Zsh! framework, and I use a different theme depending on which subuserland I’m in, by customising ~/.zshrc. For example, I use the gentoo theme on Debian and its derivatives, agnoster on NixOS, darkblood on Arch, strug for Mageia, apple on my macOS device, aussiegeek on FreeBSD, and gallifrey on OpenBSD. Different themes helps me remember which package manager to use and which distro-specific commands will work.

I’ll send some screenshots in a bit, when I boot up my PC.

I like Zsh because of its tab completion and command history. I also quite like its plugins.

Before anyone asks, I have tried Fish before, and I prefer Zsh. I have tried configuring Bash before, and I prefer Zsh. I have played with Ksh and Tcsh on BSD, and I prefer Zsh. I used PowerShell a long time ago, and I prefer Zsh.

Good bot

That’s just the order in which Mematic gave them to me.

North East England. Around here, it goes like this:

• 4-8 years: First School
• 8-13 years: Middle School
• 13-16 years: High School

then

• 16-18 years: College or Sixth Form
• 18+: University, etc.

You are probably used to the two-tier system, with a primary school and a secondary school. Around here, though, we mainly have a three-tier system.

Yeah, but high school starts at year 9 (age 13-14), so:

(Y9 doesn’t exist for a bit)

Y9 --> Y10

Y10 --> Y11

Y11 --> (Either leave school or just take a few extra weeks off)

Y12 --> Y13

Y13 --> (Leave school*)

This is done because, after the exams, the Y11s and Y13s have no content left to learn, so there’s no point in keeping them at school.

Also, as I said, my school is strange for doing this. Most, if not all, other British high schools are normal.

*Unless you get held back, stay on for another year, or go to university

TL;DR: Yeah, pretty much

Instead of moving up to the next year (the British term for “grade”) in September, we do it after the exams (finals) are over, which is in June.

My school moves everyone up after the GCSEs and A-Levels are over, which is in May or June. The holiday starts in July.

As far as I know, we’re the only school in Britain that does this.

Pretty sure that’s acid you’re talking about.

Mematic is really the only generator I can get on my phone that doesn’t suck. Unless I were to pay £4.99 per month for Mematic Pro, the watermark cannot be removed without some godawful cropping.

Oh fuck off, you absolute nitwit.

I’m sweating too. My hobbyist software brand is called X-Industries.

@sl1200@nixnet.social Thanks!

You’re welcome. Good luck in geminispace!

I have considered the repercussions of importing Japanese honeybees (which are able to defend themselves against Asian hornets), but I don’t know enough about bees to see if it would be a good idea.
