  • You may be interested in reading this post about the process of packaging Steam.

    tl;dr: It’s mostly an annoyance reserved for packagers to deal with. Dynamically linked executables can be patched in a fairly universal fashion to work without FHS, so that’s the go-to approach. If the executable is statically linked, the package may have to ship a source patch instead. If the executable is statically linked & close-source, the packagers are forced to resort to simulating an FHS environment via chroot.





  • Aniplex announced on Thursday that the Off Season and Monster Season books in NisiOisin’s Monogatari series are getting an anime adaptation at studio SHAFT titled Monogatari Series Off & Monster Season.

    A still shot depicting Araragi doing an intense Shaft-style head tilt, except it has been edited to extended his neck to a freakishly abnormal length

    The Monster Season is real!!

    Returning staff for the new anime includes Akiyuki Simbo as chief director, Midori Yoshizawa (Zoku Owarimonogatari episode director) as director, and Akio Watanabe as character designer and chief animation director. Simbo and Fuyashi Tou are again overseeing the series scripts.

    And Aniplex is taking it seriously! Glad to see that those Kizumonogatari re-release bucks are being put to good use. Also, slightly related: Kizu’s coming to American theaters in 2024.

    If you hate job boards then you need to find individual company “Careers” pages and go from there.

    How you go about this varies a lot by skillset and industry, but I’ll just throw out a random example: lots of Linux jobs exist in the DevOps space (think Kubernetes, Ansible, Chef, NixOps). It just so happens that lots of medium-sized software companies need DevOps people, so you can pretty easily find companies looking for DevOps hires just by browsing Y Combinator’s Startup Directory

    With that being said, I get the impression from the way your post is worded that you’re looking to break into a new career without having yet established a concrete plan. My advice would be to step back and consider specific options first. Almost all jobs like these require industry-specific certifications (e.g.: CompTIA, ITIL, AWS, Azure, Cisco, etc.). You need to look at your options, pick a certification, earn it, then go job hunting. Certifications are great for securing entry level jobs and the standards body issuing these will often provide an online directory of partner companies who are currently hiring.





  • So, it is a matter of our friendly shinobu maintainer to get them merged and update shinobu’s database with the new show info

    My bad for the delay. Work’s been a real killer for the last week or so.

    The bad news is that when that occurs, shinobu will likely blast all the discussion threads at once into the community.

    Yup. I’m planning to do the thing overnight so that the backlogged posts fall out of the “Hot”/“Scaled” queues before most users have any a chance to see them.

    This will make it hard to find discussions for the shows that people actually want to talk about

    On that note… I’m thinking about migrating from the Holo bot codebase to the Rikka codebase you’ve been working on. Probably not at the same time we load the new seasonal config… but likely sometime in the nearish future. I suspect that the new engagement-based options you’ve introduced will help considerably reduce future backlog spam




  • Nice. Flagship features like these so often feel overlooked in the Linux GPU discussion. I like to think that’s because we’re all very serious pragmatists who don’t care for such frivolous addons, even if the simple truth is that vendors are indifferent towards Linux as an end-user platform.

    In light of that, features like these coming in with 1st-party support is a welcome sign that things are (slowly) changing. Emphasis on “slow”; I don’t find it terribly impressive that Nvidia’s partially reversed the proprietary own-goal which they call NVAPI, especially considering the still ongoing parade of new (also proprietary!) standards which they insist on shoehorning into it… but I’ll acknowledge that they’re making progress nevertheless 😤




  • Sugarcoating pills is fairly common, especially for pills which are frequently ingested or target older demographics. It’s because sugar coatings are much gentler on the esophagus (i.e.: less likely to cause esophagitis, “pill burn”). Advil (i.e.: ibuprofen) is a cheap, well tolerated, and non habit-forming pain reliever – it’s about as safe as such a thing could possibly be, so hopefully that helps to explain why a sugar coating might be warranted given the aforementioned upsides (for the love of all that is holy; always read the directions on the label, it’s still quite possible that Advil is not safe for you specifically). FWIW: the bottles also have childproofing mechanisms built into the caps (… at least in U.S. markets. Not sure about elsewhere?)
