I hate that. I had my home built to spec a few years ago. The exterior siding is cedar shake stained a chocolatey brown with forest green trim, and the interior is white walls but with natural wood trim, pale golden laminate wood flooring, and two tone hickory wood cabinets, and the interior doors are all just natural wood unpainted.

I’ve leaned into the wood aesthetic with my DIY standing desk and custom pine desktop stained a dark red oak color, among various other earth tone color hints, and splashes of brighter decoration here and there.

Was going for “cozy cabin/cottage” and I think we nailed it. It’s very rustic.

I really hate the modern trends of white, black, steel, and glass.

You’ll have to pry my 70% and 75% keyboards from my cold dead hands. Smaller keyboards are much more ergonomic if you need to also regularly use the mouse.

I don’t see how it’s not. I have all the desktops and gaming PCs in my house running EndeavorOS and it’s been a flawless experience, much better than Windows. Heck, I’ve been using Linux for my general desktop since 2015. I only kept a Windows install around for gaming, and that’s not even needed anymore.

Even the difference in the installs is utterly absurd. Linux install from USB to full desktop deployment is 15-20 minutes, tops. For Windows, it was more like 2 hours and a bunch of hacks to work around their Microsoft account bullshit.

What exactly “isn’t ready” in your opinion?

Well shit. You’re right, I’m mixing up grub rescue and emergency mode. Yeah, you would need a USB rescue disk to fix this most likely.

My bad, I’ll update the original comment to avoid confusion.

It’s only needed is the OS isn’t booting. Running a repair every boot is not needed.

Not true, it’s grub rescue, appears after grub if the OS can’t boot. I’ve encountered this countless times at work over the years in customer environments.

Yeah, that’s the other 10%. 😂

Doing dd wrong or rm -rf on / aren’t gonna be salvaged this way, but if it’s a bad disk sector or somehow corrupted system file the above command will sort it out. You wouldn’t believe how many customers VMs I’ve had to use that on in the past when they were in a panic. It’s a 2 minute fix in most cases.

Important Edit

The information below applies to emergency mode boot when grub is intact but OS isn’t booting. It doesn’t apply to grub rescue. Sorry about that folks, I screwed up here and don’t wanna misinform.

Protip: If you see this error, press”e” on grub boot to edit your commands and add the following to the end of the kernel line in grub:

fsck.repair=yes

Then boot.

Fixes the issue like 90% of the time.

It’s why we’re able to fix all the things. We dogfood shit setups, unsupported configurations, and weird edge cases so you don’t have to.

I spend a bunch of time in log reviews in my current role. “Googling the error message” image is literally hanging on my office wall.

No, that can only be attributed to the great Omnissiah.

Give me more of this and less of the politics. This is what I come to Lemmy for.

You have my sword.

I will forever advocate good coffee methods. An electric kettle and a French press or Clever dripper will always taste better than a Mr. Coffee pot dripper. Even with less than great coffee brands/grounds.

Thundercats 2011 was the shit. Watch it if you get a chance.

It’s a deeply complex game dating back thousands of years. It’s extremely compelling, difficult to learn, and you could spend a lifetime mastering it. I can understand why the church fears it. Who has time for a sermon when you could be studying Tsumego and learning Joseki?
