There are some things I swear I've only ever made work using etcher. Would be good if it could show you the equivalent dd etc commands for what it's doing

ty for telling me about dd's progress bar lol i did not know about that. i think etcher is fine but balena is definitely what is wrong with software today

carry on then posted:thankfully i never have to use dd but this is exactly the experience of using the unix environment on z systems and it's obnoxious glad im not the only one to deal with this. ibm implemented posix just enough to pass certification and then stopped. their default sh is braindead af but at least there's a tcsh

just send it SIGINFO, bing bong so simple since FreeBSD 1.0 in 1991, probably even decades earlier https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=dd&apropos=0&sektion=1&manpath=FreeBSD+1.0-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html posted:If dd receives a SIGINFO (see the ``status'' argument for stty(1)) signal, the current input and output block counts will be written to standard error in the same format as the standard completion message. If dd receives a SIGINT signal, the current input and output block counts will be written to standard error in the same format as the standard completion message and dd will exit.

a fractal is infinite by definition, they're defined recursively. you could just say fractal i just noticed that in the title and thought i'd share ty

If you are using JavaScript to burn a disk just get the gently caress out of here. There's no excuse.

thread title is referring to an unending representation or depiction of a fractal. like where you keep zooming into it and seeing all of the things your wrong about in lunix

dd is cool and good but sometimes you don't have a nice dd-able image and have to resort to the bullshit 'better make sure i have a gpt partition table and oh better set this bit to bootable or whatever' so i have occasionally used unetbootin but usually things seem to support dual efi/bios booting anyway

computers are supposed to make things easier for people to do, so a javascript ui for something like dd with a graphic icon of an sd card is fine imho, despite js being lovely.

mawarannahr posted:anyway. electron people are like “this is a godsend for productivity. here’s my implementation of dd. if you don’t like it you probably have some growing up to do.” this reminds me a bit of linux people who complain about precious megabytes of disk space if e.g. your software uses a library rather than reinventing the wheel

it’s simple, why aren’t you all using this utility with an arcane command syntax that has a high chance of ruining your computer if you don’t type exactly the right thing

Musl is fine except for its memory allocator. If you replace the memory allocator with tcmalloc or mimalloc etc then the performance difference versus glibc is erased.

# ? May 1, 2021 22:04 |

or you could just use glibc like everyone else uses/builds and packages and tests with instead of going all gentoo on individual components of a libc

Electron would be slightly less offensive if there was a cross platform html5 embedding api so that we didn't have to have a dozen copies of chrome and could just have a single syatem-managed copy of chrome. But then our pwoducts would be abwe to bwock ouw ads uwu

In the future, many of the world's running machines will be physical implementations of the JSVM + ASIC hardware for the DOM. Web development will be bare metal. Your browser will be an OS. Impressively, on a complete technicality, this switch makes LISP machines a non-meme. Dont Touch ME fucked around with this message at 04:47 on May 2, 2021 |
