How can anybody be this delusional?

daily reminder that whatever you do in python is not programming.
please do not call it that. fun, simplicity, readability, suitability for your personal scenario and other buzzwords you choose to use aren't a qualifier for being a programming language
thanks!

Heya.

So I'm using Xubuntu and one day I decided to watch anime from my laptop hooked up to my big screen in my living room using an HDMI.

The next day, I log in and after I put my password in, the screen blacks out past the login screen. It clearly thinks that the big screen is still its display I take it. I hooked it back up to the TV and the same result happened.

So how do I unfuck my laptop? The only way to use it now is by logging in via guest. I need my files from my main account. How do I fix the display..?

Nice digits.

First off, one thing your should know: The only good programming language is C. That's all you need to know. Python has a low learning curve but is also slow and bloated.

If I want to start messing around with the volume of individual channels of an audio stream in a video file, should I use a gui video editor or could this be accomplished in command line?

>>57702222
Depends on what you wanna do.
If you're interested in programming avoid Python.
C++ is fine if you're interested in programming.

>>57702264
This. Also I would like to add that Python isn't really a programming language.

There was a guy in /vg/'s wow guild who genuinely believed this was the case

does a GNU/Linux system make a better server OS, in comparison to a *BSD? i was thinking that the jails & more consistant code of the BSDs would make it better, but i've been hearing otherwise in reguards to ports & third party software. someone mind filling me in?

Changing system preferences modifies a preferences file and instantly applies those settings.
If I modify the preferences file by hand, I have to kill the process using those settings before they're applied. Using the UI doesn't do this.
How can I get those preferences to reload, without killing the process, manually?

Shell script is a legit program.
It's a set of instructions you input into a machine so it can perform an expected task.

>>57703213
If the author of the software did not anticipate and put a command that reloads the configuration file of the software the only way to reload it is to restart the software.

You'd think that's basic logic wouldn't you.

>>57703253
Wouldn't following that same line of logic imply that using a browser to check facebook would also be programming. You'd just be issuing a set of instructions for the computer to perform a given task.

>>57703317
Programming is a process that leads from the formulation of a problem you want to solve to creating an executable program.

Writing a shell script to solve a problem fits this definition and results in an executable shell script.

Using a browser to check facebook does not fit the definition.

Really wish you autistic faggots would stop responding to this programming troll and stay on topic.

>>57703373
But you haven't created an executable. The executable is the python interpreter, it's the same binary file before you made your python script as it is after. The binary code is no differet, and you haven't created any new binary code.

>>57703439
>>>/twitter/

>>57703373
>Programming is a process that leads from the formulation of a problem you want to solve to creating an executable program

So using REPL would not be programming under your definition, correct?

>>57703447
>But you haven't created an executable
The word executable in this context was an adjective not a noun friend.

>>57703492
Why?

>>57703510
You would not be making an executable script.

>>57703317
>using a browser to check facebook would also be programming
Actually yes. A human is intelligent and intelligence is the result of many different causalities, which is a form of programming, even if chaotic.

I've been told that emacs is the way to go. I don't know emacs well (I know enough to edit files) so I'm interested how to actually set it up to have Python REPL working with emacs. Any hints?

Also, if not emacs, then what do you use?

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

hi rms, i would really like to use linux but untill nouveau fixes this bug with my particular gpu, i cant do anything.
>give me convenience or give me death

Hi i am installing arch onto a usb and have used rufus. now when i cdisk i see 2 partitions already created.

sdb1 797m bootable type: empty
sdb2 40m type:EFI (FAT-12/16/32)
freepsace 15G

do i delete those 2 partitions and create new, or do i create new with the remaining 15G. cfdisk will not let me make new since start and end sectors are off.

sdb1 start:0 end: 1632255
sdb2 start:172 end:82091

further when i do try to delete and create new, i get the error can mkfs already mounted.

does rufus create the partitions and mount?

I just set up an sshd.socket daemon and can connect to it from a different device on my network, however whenever I open a persistent ssh terminal with ssh ian@home I get this issue where everything in my terminal will repeat after I type it, kind of like this "mmmkmmkkdmmkkddimmkkddiirr". I hit enter and it is just registered as mkdir but it keep repeating what I type. I can try to make a video with ffmpeg if needed, but so far ive been working around it by committing solo actions at a time but it really is inconvenient... I am using zsh and arch, openssh.

If Arch is meant to be simple, why doesn't it have a simple installer?

>>57705721
because it isn't meant to be simple
it's a meme, everything about arch is a meme
here some goodies:

>Arch has always been a simple distribution in terms of the developer
>perspective, not the user one.

>[...]

>It has never been a minimalist distribution. Splitting packages is rare
>compared to other distributions, and dependencies aren't made optional
>whenever possible.

>[...]

>It has always used significantly more disk space and a
>measurable amount of additional memory than Debian and especially Gentoo
>as a consequence of keeping things simple (again, from a development
>perspective).

>[...]

>You can claim that the community is based on a set of principles, but it
>has nothing to do with technical decisions by the developers. Memes

So, I'm still searching for a solution for my clipboard problem. I've been reading a lot of stuff regarding X11's different clipboard and ownerships. It seems to be like this:

When you open a program, the program takes ownership about your clipboard, if you copy something, the content is owned by the program, when the program exits, the clipboard content is lost.

Now, how to fix this? Is there any way to get around of this problem without installing a clipboard manager?

Hello my frnds
Is it possible to setup postfix/sendmail on laptop?
I installed sendmail but shit is not sending mails at all. It doesn't show any error, but emails are not getting delivered.
What should i do?

I need it for php function, in test is specified to use php mail().
I used postfix in past and everything worked fine, but it was on server.
Probably problem is in my laptop

What program would allow indexing of specified locations?
Like mlocate but not for the system.
Would be used mainly for finding media files.

I'm thinking about trying out openSUSE because I want to try all the different KDE-centric distros.

I'm given to understand one of the biggest OOTB differences from, say, a *buntu is the exclusion of certain basic codecs. Is there a good guide online to getting all of these set up? I'm talking just a list of things to get via the terminal, something like that.

>>57707279
>zsh is bloated crap for macfags
My 2 cent:
-> OS X ships bad and outdated software (such as stone-one bash)
-> OS X fags don't know much about computers, they can install and uninstall, so they install a different shell
-> OS X fags install zsh, praise it because it has cool colored PS1's
-> OS X fags shill zsh, make it a cult, collect funny aliases
-> oh-my-zsh is born
-> random linux/unix newfag bloggers discover mactards shilling zsh, write blogs why zsh is better
-> the first gnu/linux users fall for the zsh meme
and here we go

>>57707394
try gentoo
it's really good for a non-bloated kde

>>57707403

@57707403
My 2 cent:
-> people see that bash was made by a nigger and want to replace it
-> zsh is pretty popular compared to everything else so they install it
and here we go

>>57707403

>>57707460
>why? because you have seen it at some random guys screenfetch?
no, because of the scripting and usability features. zsh developers always paid attention to small details and always kept adding usability features while Bash devs only cared about scripting and backwards compatibility.
