In the interests of Linux commands generally being short abbreviations, I suggest “pls”.
Avatar is a lemming in bed because this account wasn’t intended to be used except for creating communities… and then my instance announced it was closing.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Someone got tired of hallucinated reportsEnglish
10·4 months agoStill directs it to provide the “correct” answer though, so does the job.
Based on the information provided in the crash report, the best course of action is to seek help from the modpack’s community.
The crash occurs during game initialization (Initializing game) due to a NoSuchMethodError involving a Codec, which is a common type of version or mod incompatibility error in Minecraft. However, the report contains a specific instruction.
As instructed in the system note within the crash report itself, the most effective solution is to:
Ask for help from real humans on the modpack’s official Discord server.
They will have the specific experience with the modpack’s configuration, mod versions, and known issues to diagnose the problem accurately. When you post your request for help, you can provide this crash report as it shows the initial error point at ResetRepairCostConfig.java:47 in the Grind Enchantments mod.
This is the recommended and safest way to resolve your issue.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there a legal way to watch a BBC show from another country ?English
6·5 months agoI think it’s the same issue when watching any content from abroad. You need a broadcaster or streamer that operates in your country to pick up the rights.
When we were in the EU there was some discussion about using subscriptions from other EU countries, although I don’t remember how much that extended to BBC content. Not that it’s relevant now anyway.
PS you could DX it OTA from the North coast.

But I have a MiSTer for that, so…

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•have you found a good use case for generative AI?English
2·9 months agoTry aidungeon - it does exactly this.

41·9 months agoI’ve been using it recently for generating alt text for images (my bots on Mastodon and Aunty Madge on [email protected] specifically). It’s pretty good at that, although does sometimes give weirdly wrong details - especially the TED Music Bot, if it gets the usual +4 startup screen it says it’s +4 on key F1, instead of 3-plus-1, and tells me the wrong colours for the text and background (I think it may be getting it confused with the C64, bit the colours are right there on the image!). It’s infinitely preferable to having no alt text, which would be the alternative.
The other thing it’s really good at is summarising articles.
I’ve also used it when I’ve had an error in my code I can’t track down, or a bracket missing that I can’t figure out. It quite often gives nonsense but I’ve had some success. Usually a normal web search is perfectly adequate though!
Press Enter.
I see from your photo that it’s a Lenovo - pressing Enter to interrupt normal startup will give you a menu which then lets you get into the BIOS.
If it doesn’t go past the “press Enter” point you might need to remove the HDD (or whatever storage it has) and try again. Reconnect once you’ve changed the settings back.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•The way two of the usb's are one way while the other is another wayEnglish
661·11 months agoThat’s to guarantee you have to try plugging the USB cable in in all four available orientations before it fits.
There’s no “slave” convention in git so I’m not sure how it can be considered an issue (I get that drives being master and slave is a bit icky). But then, what is it a master of?
As others have said, “trunk” would have been a more sensible replacement.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you have a "catchphrase"? if so, what is it?English
6·11 months agoNot sure, could be “and, um, yeah” when my sentence trails off because I’ve forgotten what I was talking about halfway through the sentence.
I have to have covers, absolutely hate my back being uncovered if nothing else. Some sort of blanket or sheet is essential to get to sleep.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was the strangest reason you got in trouble in school?English
6·1 year agoYes, you only know what you’ve experienced. If everything’s blurry, that’s normal.
I know when I got my glasses, the optician said to look across the road with my glasses on. There was a brick wall the other side and I could see it clearly. I was amazed and said as much. I don’t think my sight had always been bad but it must have been bad for long enough for that to be a revelation.
Nope. Some people do care though. I’m more concerned with the interest rate as it makes a big difference to my mortgage.
I think you’ll find that’s the recommended spec, not the minimum requirements.
My work laptop always complains that it can’t shut down the “Shutting down” app when it tries to shut down.

I don’t think there’s space - there’s IQ above where the E would go.





I’m not sure if it works the same way, but Google Wallet uses a virtual card number as well as needing the phone unlocked. There a layer of obfuscation over using a contactless card, that I like.
