New to the community and been considering a change from Debian to Guix. I love emacs and I also have a ran a declarative distro in NixOS. I never used the lisp like languages before so that will be a change but I'm willing to learn. Just hoping to learn about the struggles you can face with daily driving guix and any great advice if I decide to switch! Thanks in advance for commenting!
So I got a CS degree which at this point is nearly impossible to get into because I didn't get into the field right after graduation (due to taking care of a parent), my degree is near useless now. I'm thinking about getting into diesel or automotive work because it sounds the most interesting outside of aviation maintenance (which requires schooling). Sadly I got too much debt for schooling (57k) so that might be out of the question. Is there any career path for these fields without schooling or should I get into a union and do something different (electrical)? I'm not a very strong or big dude so physical demands can be rough for me but I'll try and aim to build up some strength for it.
I want to avoid the construction field,plumbing and I have no clue how id fair with HVAC. Here in Eastern KY there's not a lot of opportunities so the trades or something medical is mainly what seems to be ok here. Outside that I was suggested with going to a lube shop and do oil changes and such but it seems like the only career path in that is literally just manager and I don't want to be a manager. I really just want to do the job make a reasonable living and not deal with a bunch of employees and such and just focus on doing a great job and not being constantly stressed out. That's what I'm hoping to do because Im really not much of a people person to begin with so I just want to be good at getting stuff done. What paths are there for me?
Was mowing the neighbor's yard and some fishing line got wrapped around the blade area. The line was cut but my cousin told me the fishing line could've got wrapped up in the drive shaft to stop the blade from moving. Outside of that it could be a belt or pulley issue?
If you don't have much money and a CS degree but want to learn devops, what are some affordable or free ways to get into the experience of learning devops?
I'm also curious about what experiences you all had to get you into devops and what you enjoy most about it?
I'm just a software engineer at heart and by trade (barely if that). Just seems like an interesting field and want to learn more 😎
When you all got into Gentoo, did you feel like it was truly a great learning experience for getting deeper into Linux and the fact that you could really build your system the way you wanted to?
Was there things that took a while to get used to doing?
What was the point that made you fully decide on being a full time Gentoo user vs other distros?
Just trying to gauge if I were to run Gentoo down the road if the experience will be something I can really grow from and be more hands on with Linux in general. I've built some packages for various distros for practice to gain knowledge of their build systems and such and just gradually learning more of the terminal commands. Slackware for example was one where I had to fix broken slack builds and deal with things not being preconfigured well out of the box which I think was a good learning experience looking bad. Just wanting to expand my knowledge
I've been suggested if I really want to dive into Linux and learn it my options are... Gentoo, Slackware, and. Linux from Scratch. Which would be easier and have better help and documentation for when you get stuck? The goal is to learn how to fix broken packages (not configured right etc) and just get a deeper knowledge of Linux.
Just want to say as someone who is from Ohio and lives in KY but works in WV a lot, y'all are great and you got some very nice towns and cities. Ive been to Point Pleasant, Milton, Ona, Teays Valley, Charleston, Huntington, and Hurricane so far with work. I'm not the big city type but I love these smaller cities and towns. Really beautiful places here and I just want to say thank you for making feel welcomed while I work here.
Thank you WV folks!
Hi Dark Souls community! I just joined the community today and got both games above yesterday. I'm gonna beat DS1 remastered first on ps5 before doing ds2. I'm coming into this series from Elden Ring which I was able to do fairly well by getting platinum after ng+3. I'm hoping to enjoy this trilogy too!
On DS1 I'm a knight and I can parry the enemies so far decently in the first part of the game. Any tips on builds for this knight I could do? Any tips on both of these games coming from Elden Ring? Looking forward to the challenge of this trilogy and hope to be apart of a great community! Thanks in Advance!
I'm here in North Eastern KY (family is here and near WV border) and it's been a rough transition being an Ohioan. Folks seem to treat me like an outcast since I didn't grow up here. My family is all from here though and when it's just me... I'm thinking about really staying in KY and trying to have a full life here. Growing in Ohio, I don't want to go back there and I'm trying to make career changes so I can find work for me here in KY since tech is dead and most dont want to hire anyone with a CS degree because they think you'll bolt for the money. I have traveled down to Paintsville, Prestonsburg, and Salyerville so far in south eastern KY. Really loved those areas and would love to know what it is like to live in south eastern KY in these places and others like Hazard, Harlan, and Pikeville. If things go right I may move to one of these areas later in life. Hoping to hear from locals in these parts about living in these areas, job market, and overall quality of life. I'd love to work in the datacenter in Prestonsburg. Prestonsburg was my favorite city thus far in this part of KY.
If any locals to these parts got info would be great!
Just keep getting the same error of "unplugged or rebooting" the dish has a pretty clear view of the sky but this keeps happening
I created a warrior starter character and want to make him a high DPS build with the rapier. My focus is dealing a lot of damage quick, high critical damage from parrying, and stats, armor, shield, talisman, flask, and rapier suggestions to achieve this. I'm aiming to really have a lot of fun with this character since i've already got my platinum trophy for this game. Time to have fun! Any ideas out there? Thanks!
Edit: Base game only i dont have the DLC yet
