  • Sabayon Linux. I’m not sure if it’s still releasing updates, the main website is dead. It was based on Gentoo and later funtoo, but had a package manager of precompiled binaries. You could still use emerge if you wanted to. Definitely a weird and interesting distro

    Blend OS is trying to do the declarative nixos thing but with an arch base. That’s pretty cool.

    ClearOS was Intel’s attempt at an immutable os. From what I remember it was really fast.

    Edit: actually it clear Linux not clearOS. Edit: also clear Linux is stateless. I don’t know, there’s a lot about it I don’t understand




  • Showing off is an important part of social MMOs. If anyone can have the really cool looking thing for some cash then what’s the point of grinding? For a hardcore player, what do they have to show off their prestige?

    It’s pretty important for an MMO to respect its most active players. Not to mention, what do new players have to look up to? To think, what do I have to get that? If the answer is “oh I just have to fork out some dough”. That’s kinda disappointing





  • I’ve always wanted a battlefield like 40k experience. To be a little guardsman who gets krumped by the greener faction, or eaten by nids or spikies.

    I’ve also been really enjoying games that are controlled with programming (the farmer was replaced has been a fixation recently). So I’d really like to make something like that. Like old school RuneScape, but the only way to play is to program a bot.


  • “chown” is a command for changing the users and groups who own a file. But the options “775 xyz” are used with chmod, a command for changing what permissions the owners and groups have over a file. I’m not sure what you’re trying to do so I can’t tell what part of the command is wrong.

    Either way you can run a command with elevated permissions by putting “sudo” in front of the command. Or by switching to the root user by using the command “su” or “sudo -i” (if you have sudo access, but don’t know the root password)
