I never understood why everyone uses it as a ignore list. In my own and work repositories I always exclude everything by default and re-add stuff explicitly. I have had enough random crap checked in in the past by coworkers. Granted, the whole source folder is fully included but that has never been a problem.
Man, I always found that weird but never looked it up…
And I thought that “8” had something to do with “netes” because it somewhat resembles the pronunciation 🤦♂️
Yeah, if you get this exception and not doing anything not-“normal” then the chance is high that there are multiple versions of the same class. A possible way to trigger this is when extracting code to a separate module without changing the package. If you copy instead of move and change something you will have a bad time. It is also possible that the IDE complains but building and executing works.
Fun times!
First time I read in windows update “we are commited to reduce co2 emissions” I was like “wtf”.
THAT is very shitty. My problem is that after using it for a bit apps start freezing for a split second all the time. Most notable is firefox. The frequency and duration of them increase steadily. Then opening a new program might freeze the system fully (or wait minutes/hours until it unfreezes). It has something to do with memory allocation “according to” dmesg.
This is currently happening to me and I hate it.
Something between linux kernel 6.2 (working) and 6.7 (broken) and all I have at best is a generic warning message that yields just a few results and all are unrelated.
Jumping from the default kernel with zfs to the xanmod kernel using a manually compiled version of zfs. I don’t rememeber a whole lot but it was quite… interesting. Next would be a suddenly vanished efi partition and my f* mainboard refusing to boot ZBM.
Bonus: my currently still unfixed problem is a very weird freezing/stuttering of the whole OS and the only (useless) “lead” I have is workqueue: fill_page_cache_func hogged CPU for >10000us 4 times, consider switching to WQ_UNBOUND
Only thing I can remember right now reading about is that is is “not finished” and “not production ready”.
I mean there is some truth in that because when I tried switching to it some months ago, it crashed in the first 5 minutes of using it. Haven’t triey it since. Others report using it all the time without any issues.
Not sure if it is equal on all distros but on every one I have used it’s a readable string of muliple components. One of them is “usb” for a usb mass storage, so if it is the only one you have connected to your computer it is very obvious. For like sata disks it has the manufacturer and serial on it so you can match what drive it is you want to write to. Also, the name is pretty unique (on your sysytem at least, globally I don’t know), so even if you swap hardware around, you cannot write to the wrong storage if you got the right name. Like “sdb” can be reassigned, but the id is an id.
Not sure what problems you had. I am using a secondary drive for steam for years now on xubuntu. I think they even get re-added automatically now if you started steam before you mount the drive.
Windows: “While updating I found out that some weird thing was set as first boot priority. I fixed that by setting it to myself. You are welcome!”
They somehow got the message and actually implemented that it can *checks notes* open emails.
