  • It’s not a permanent one and it works for the time being, can’t see the reason for the downvotes honestly.

    It’s just a bad idea in general. A better option would be to patch the binary to use 15. They both have the issue of forcing paru to work with a library it wasn’t explicitly designed for, but symlinking (or copying) 15 to 14 forces the hack to be “system wide” instead of restricted to a single binary

    as well, your solution is “temporary” only if you remember to fix it, vs patching which is (by default) overwritten the next time paru is updated

    it “works”, but it’s not something i’d recommend someone else do











  • It might be your phone getting a notification, and sending that to the BT speaker, which then takes precedent over the laptop

    I usually just disable BT on my phone when stuff like that happens (on android, you can change the playback device without disconnecting, and that should also prevent the phone from stealing your headphones)



  • I think most people make the assumption that the current owner has always been the owner, and therefore they’re the cause of obesity

    It also doesn’t help that the human obesity epidemic, and “body positivity” movement tend to normalize obesity in people’s minds. I think some of the comments (mine included) are a response to this

    Also, some owners just don’t realize that they are overfeeding their pets, nor the damage that does to their pets

    But that doesn’t mean rude, insulting, or assumptive comments are justified


    I would suggest mentioning your efforts at weight loss whenever you post pics, just to head off the stream of comments about the subject. That way, people can see you’re both cognizant and proactive with the issue


  • Yo, with all due respect, he needs to see a vet and loose some weight

    Obese cats have issues grooming themselves, which causes their fur to look disheveled, as well as poop buildup on their butts

    Also, all that extra weight causes arthritis and joint pain. Not to mention a host of other health complications and organ failure

    Also also, be aware that losing weight too fast can be fatal to cats (fatty liver disease), so it’s important to discuss this with your vet

    Girl With The Dogs has some informative videos on overweight cats

  • For a while, I had to do this after every kernel update

    Turns out, i accidentally had two /boot folders. One was is own partition, and the other was on the rootfs partition. When Arch booted, the separate partition was mounted over the rootfs /boot dir, “shadowing” it

    Except, UEFI / GRUB was still pointing to the rootfs partition. So when pacman installed a kernel update, it wasn’t able to update the kernel that UEFI was booting, but it was able to update the kernel modules

    Kernel no likey when kernel modules are newer than the kernel itself
