I wonder if this is heaven or hell 😅

I have ~/git for fit repos, and a dedicated ~/git/ext for repos I do not own, but have locally cloned for various reasons.

Sounds like dogs barking at/with each other in the night back when I was growing up. You’d hear the occasional how-how-hoooooww from one of them, and others would join in. Wolf’ish in some ways. The city I grew up in was much less crowded back then.

Now: I guess self driving cars fill in the void left by dogs not barking at each other anymore.

Nominative determinism is pretty accurate. Steve Jobs did generate a lot of jobs. Bill Gates had a lot of gates to his name.

</joke> just in case it wasn’t obvious

Balls of plastic. Descended from balls of steel 💪

Based on other posts by the author (they have posted AI generated art before, and attribute when it’s not AI generated), I’m pretty sure this is AI generated.

The fine print in the mastodon toot:

Fine print: Happy first of the fourth!

Says Happy first of the fourth, implying first of the fourth (month - April), which is what I based my own hint that this was an April fools joke in a veiled way.

Sauce listed here in my post.

The reference to the first of the fourth (month - April) implying it is an April fools joke too, in the same place.

I run KDE on opensuse Slowroll - Intel i9 processor with plenty of RAM.

Check btrfs snapshots, and consider disabling them if you don’t really need them.

Here’s my story some time in the recent past:

Similar freezing issues that got more frequent. I have network and CPU monitor widgets on my desktop, and noticed my CPU usage peaking during freeze.

Ran top, saw #btrfs was doing a lot of processing. It was running snapshots.

I’d like snapshots, but a responsive system is more important to me: I have frequent backups of most of my stuff anyways.

Once I disabled btrfs snapshots, I stopped having the periodic freezes (which I also noticed were often some time after system/flatpak updates).

Nobody cares about the $135000, I told you!

See how the socket looks like a V?

That’s how you remember it’s meant to be used to exit vi.

Spiral Linux. It’s Debian with customizations on top. You probably have a HDD. Flatpak/snap won’t play well with that.

You could try Opensuse tumbleweed for newer stuff, not sure how well your machine would hold up.

Puppy Linux might be an even safer choice than spiral Linux if you really want to stay lightweight.
