“Wah wah I’m a victim look they’re going to attack me any second now!”
I hope you figure out whatever’s destroying your sense of self-worth and causing you to attack margainalisized communities to protect what’s left of your ego. That’s both a dig and a genuine dose of sympathy.
Someone feels called out?
Some people like to be victim, some like drama and some are Mimosa on behalf of others. Augenmass is needed in such cases, instead of joining the drama.
No?
Yes, sometimes it’s better to just leave the shitty person to be shitty but not calling people out also validates their shitty opinions. I’m glad you’re in a place of privilege to just ignore it but maybe practice your own fuckin’ augenmaß and butt out if you don’t have anything constructive to say.
Wait, what happened here? Is this picture supposed to be offensive somehow? Is there a place you can see deleted lemmy comments like you can see deleted reddit comments?
He refuses to update the identification info for contributers? Why? It’s the least they can do for people who offer their time and expertise for the project.
Presumably he’d be happy to do so if they got married and changed their name, so it sounds like he’s probably a transphobe, right?
Could we please let this 30+ year old joke just die?
Many here will be seeing this for the first time. For others it will be a fun reminder of something they haven’t seen for a long time. Still others will find it to be the same old tired shit they’re sick of.
When you see the same old tired shit on Lemmy (or any social media), just move on. There will be plenty that is new to you.
You know I’ve known for decades that -9 is basically “nuke it from orbit”, but does anyone know what the “9” actually means or where it came from?
You can use kill -l
(lowercase L) to see a list of signals. But IIRC it’s the same as -KILL
.
EDIT: fixed the signal name.
It’s the number of the signal sent, 9
is for SIGKILL
. You can send various signals with kill, and depending on how application was made it may react on all signals with dying, or meaningfully process most of them. Afaik, SIGKILL
can’t be processed by the app, and it always means just that: “die already”.
Checked in Wikipedia, that’s about right but there are more details I left out, mostly because didn’t know about them, too: POSIX signals
A bit like when we renamed all the master/slave terminology using different phrasing that’s frankly more useful a lot of the time, I think it’s about time we got rid of this “child” task nonsense. I suggest “subtask”. Then we can reword these books into something that no-one can make stupid jokes about any more, like “how to keep your subs in line” and “how to punish your subs when they’ve misbehaved”.
I don’t think changing a profession’s terms to “prevent stupid jokes” is a smart move.
