sudo systemctl stop sawtrapd

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And don't forget
systemctl disable sawtrapd
so it won't restart again.

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

sysyemctl disable --now sawtrapd to do both in one command.

but is it written in 6510 assembly, with cool graphics and catchy music with fast arpeggios?

Not even in programming but I'd have to at least test the wheel see if it's as good as I'm told

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 12 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I mean surely it could at least be optimized somewhat...

Sure wheel 7 and wheel 10 were Ok, but wheel 11 is crap.

What do you mean developer? As soon as I got a dock so I could actually use my steam deck like a desktop, I started experimenting with everything!

Obviously, I would never escape that trap...

Is the wheel FOSS? No? Guess I have to then.

But it doesn't conform to every cars specifications! A new standard must be invented!

But my wheel will be much better. I will start from the center with a very simple skeleton and build on top of it as needed. It will be very modular, elegant and easy to understand. It will be my masterpiece.

I feel this! When I need to do something in my computer my first impulse is usually to think about writing the code. Doesn't matter how many free tools are already around. Why? Because software design and coding is fun! It's not cost-effective in terms of time and effort, but way more fun than reading a manual for an existing thing and getting good at that thing. Example: right now I'm looking for a self-hosted wiki to organize my upcoming D&D campaign. As I look through the docs for dokowiki and wikijs I'm already thinking, how hard can it be to write one? A mind is terrible thing!
