im having a hard time copying what i wrote above cuz im on jerboa mobile, but the kernel version from uname does indeed match the directory in which its looking (see above)
i get it, i collect them too. but only retail releases. no way to control the quality if the source isnt authoritative.
to me, if youre 1-to-1 copying a retail blu ray, then authoring isnt required. if youre ripping it and compressing it (losslessly or otherwise), keep it on a nas for easier access. but if youre downloading a movie from the web and burning it, i dont see the point, since its already been compressed most likely, or at least you cant be sure its a great copy. especially with the audio side.
i knew a guy who used to make full backups of redbox blu rays for archive purposes. that made sense to me.
as to why might you be trolling, well, this is the kind of troll post id make haha
if this isnt a troll, then you are one of a dying (pretty much never existed) breed
burning dvds or copying vhs tapes made sense years ago bc you needed a converter to plug your computer into a tv, and the quality was iffy. now most machines and tvs are compatible with hdmi, so going from digital to physical is like printing a mapquest route and taking a picture of it with your phone
except they massively decreased the rate for the top recently, and they very likely will either do nothing or increase it a small amount this time for brownie points
that website is particularly hard to read on mobile...
the royal "we"
to me, it matters if its backplane or frontend patchwork. just my 2 cents

yeah, i've built an iso using archiso (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Archiso, https://github.com/archlinux/archiso). i'm running the 2 modprobe commands while booted into that iso (the live environment).
i have the following packages installed on the live iso when building that image:
my next steps would normally be
cryptsetup -v luksFormat /dev/vda2which asks for a passphrase, creates a key in slot 0, and seems to succeed in encrypting the partition.
cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/vda2 map-rootthis asks for the passphrase to unlock, but gives the following response:
device-mapper: reload ioctl on map-root (253:0) failed: Invalid argumentand then my formatting step
mkfs.btrfs -f -L "fs-root-btrfs" /dev/mapper/map-rootclearly doesn't work.
"pacman -Q cryptsetup" yields "cryptsetup 2.8.6-1"
"uname -a" yields
Linux larch.domain.net 7.1.3-zen1-2-zen #1 ZEN SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu, 09 Jul 2026 20:39:38 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linuxi initially tried this on my laptop, bc i didn't expect any trouble. but i'm working with a libvirt virtual machine now until i figure out the issue.
cuz they dont store msgs on a server. feature, not a bug
i think this comment was meant to be ironic, as replacing democracy with socialism aligns with my beliefs. maybe im wrong tho

i think if you ask that question, itll result in abolishing the minimum wage, in the usa anyway
does stapler really mean forklift, and lager really mean storage, in german?
i get a lot of simpsons pictures in the image results for some rsn

basically youre asking the ai to generate chunks, then check those chunks. it might work

i have no idea what to think about this, but im in favor of crazy new ideas and directions. will this be good?

does nobody else notice this is absolutely and obviously an ai generated image?
not to say that wal-mart is helping anyone at all. but this was clearly designed to spark outrage.
