I think because “nukiuchi” would be pronounced like “NOO-KEE-OO-CHEE” and “nukitsuke” would be pronounced like “NOO-KEE-SOO-KEE” so kind of similar. I dunno though!

Katana’s are weak on the flat side. They aren’t really meant to be used for parrying. In fact, most sword fights in Japan would be over after the first or second swing. It was commonplace to hold the grip of a katana but not draw it in such a way so that your enemy has trouble judging how long your katana is and what is a safe distance to be from you. Once your opponent is in range, draw it quickly and kill them in one blow, ideally.

The act of killing your opponent in a single blow is called “nukitsuke” from “nukiuchi” meaning “to cut down an opponent” and “tsuke” meaning “to stop an opponent’s attack before it begins”.

The Sekiro and popular media image of extended katana fights didn’t really happen, but if they did, there would almost certainly be some broken katanas.

Garuda has been an A+ gaming distro for me so far, been daily driving it for about 6 months.

Capitalism and Communism are bad, there is a middle ground which is better than both and most of the western world uses it. Have a largely free market, but also have socially funded services that wouldn’t work under a free market system like healthcare.

I don’t understand the appeal of foldable screen smart phones. Seems like nothing more than a gimmick to me.

If you open /usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.icon/main.qml and search for line there’s a section called PlasmaExtras.ShadowedLabel which seems to correspond with icon text and there’s a line maximumLineCount: 2 you could try reducing that to 1 and it might fix your issue.

It looks like KDE Plasma is based on QT6 and the icons I believe are a QT6 Label so you can also add some styling to it yourself. Here’s the documentation for it: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qml-qtquick-controls-label-members.html

There is a property called lineHeight so you could just add that to the PlasmaExtras.ShadowedLabel and see if that fixes it.

Weird. I was just having an issue with pamac and started using paru as a backup and paru is working fine last I checked.

I guess it’s not so much RTS. It’s like making hard decisions. It’s a lot like Frostpunk in that way if you’ve played that game. There’s an element of danger and your villagers can easily die, and sometimes you have to make hard decisions or sacrifices.

It’s very good if you like city builders with RTS elements. There’s no combat in it at all, it’s just you and your villagers against the storm, hence the title. It has a lot of challenge missions and an overall story so the replayability is quite good.

While you’re at it, switch over to DD/MM/YYYY for the date format. The only 2 configurations that make sense is that or YYYY/MM/DD. Either go general to specific or specific to general, MM/DD/YYYY makes no sense.

Why would they be hostile to that idea? It allows you to run the VPN only on your browser instead of your entire system which is sometimes preferable.

It’s quite good and also I like that they largely support Linux. They have phone apps, browser extensions, desktop apps, and even CLIs. They also have downloadable configurations for OpenVPN and WireGuard if you want to go that route. They’ve also got what I assume are fairly basic features of most VPNs like kill switching, private DNS servers, etc.

And yet F:NV has the best writing of those 3 examples.

Writers of children’s names books are going to have a field day with the data from this study.

RIP Chester. He had a shitty life, but he made ours a little better while he was here.

You should go for a distro that matches what you want out of your system. You want stable? Find some strong LTS distro like Ubuntu. You want ULTRA STABLE? Go for an immutable distro. Do you want to use your system for gaming? Go for a distro with wide gaming support, built-in drivers with options for proprietary drivers.

It’s less about what base distro you’re using and more about what you like about that particular flavor of distro.

For example, I use my PC for gaming mostly, but also coding. I switched from Pop! (Ubuntu based) to Garuda (Arch based) and I love it because it’s really good for gaming, comes with Mangohud, Gamemode, Steam, Heroic, controller drivers, graphics drivers, etc, all optionally pre-installed. I also really like KDE apps because they’re performant and slick so I got the Plasma version.

Anyway, yeah, focus less on “this distro is Arch based” and more on what each distro can provide you as far as your personal tastes.

I think she’s your type!

This tip is super useful to me because not everyone is using a PC. On a PC sure, I would use the Home and End keys all the time. Now I’m using a laptop as my main computer and the Home and End keys are in a weird position that even to this day, 4ish years of laptop use, I still have to actually look at the keys to find them.

My favorite tips are:

You can filter the output of a command. Most commands return parameters like (output, error) so you can filter them by number like 1>/dev/null will filter the output and only show the errors, and 2>/dev/null will filter the errors and only show the output. Also if you want a command to run silently but it doesn’t have it’s own built-in quiet mode you can add &>/dev/null which will filter everything.

Bash (and other shell’s I assume) can be fully customized. In addition to the .bashrc file in your home directory, there are also a few common files that bash will look for like .bash_aliases, .bash_commands, .bash_profile or you can create your own and just add to the end of the .bashrc file ./YOUR_CUSTOM_BASH_FILE_NAME

Inside that file you can add any custom commands you want to run for every bash shell like aliases and what not.

I personally often use a simple update command like so alias up='sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt autoremove -y' which just makes running updates, upgrades, and clean-up so much easier. Just type up and enter your password. I have previously added in things like &>/dev/null to quiet the commands and echo Fetching updates... to make some commands quieter but still give some simple feedback.

There’s also the basics of moving around a terminal command as others have pointed out. The easiest and the one I use the most is if you hold CTRL+LEFT_ARROW the cursor will move entire words instead of one character at a time. Very helpful if you need to change something in the middle of a command.

I’m not sure if I’ve seen that one, I’ll have to check it out, thanks!

Is it this one? http://weebls-stuff.com/toons/alpaca-animated-music-video-mrweebl/

Or maybe you were referring to the Llamas In Hats series? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBE8C175E9FAAA34A

I was always partial to the Amazing Horse one for some reason. http://weebls-stuff.com/toons/amazing-horse-animated-music-video-mrweebl/

I used to listen to it for hours and a weird quirk of Flash animations was that often the audio track and the video were milliseconds off so over time it would get very out of sync.
