Yea I do recall i had maintained several overlays and found the way they implemented it to be great. Much easier than running your arch repo... Though its been so long I dont remember how to do it off hand other than it just sits a directory in your system you point to with config.

@abloo

@abloo It has been a few years since I actually used gentoo honestly. But I do recall it being rather trivial to insert your own modified version of a package.

@abloo While arch has been very managable I will admit that I have had some trouble with the dependency rats nest as well, especially when you try to delete a dependency or revert to an older one.

Sadly one of the big issues with a rolling system that aggressively purges older versions and relies heavily on AURs that may need said versions.

Sometimes i miss my Gentoo days just because they would actually maintain quite a few older versions for exactly that reason.

@abloo yea but then why are the other packages claiming they depend on it... iw ouldnt expect an indirect dependency to be reported that way....

@abloo im running arch here too and have some of those packages. I dont think i have wayland installed. I will look a bit closer. That is a bit stupid though considering xorg isnt even close to being officially deprecated yet

@abloo I suspect those things need either wayland OR xorg and perhaps you just dont have xorg?

We have now officially moved out of the computer age and into the loony tunes era of robotics and personal devices.

That dream of owning a robotic back scratcher that is also a juicer and can slice Julian fries all while connecting to spotify... well now is the time to live that dream!

@noelle They just spaced it out to ensure you'd pronounce it in french :)

@manu Funny, its almost like I made the whole thing up in an attempt to make a joke... doesnt sound like me at all though :)

::me as a new member of the bird watching club::

member: You know the purpose is to see how many **different** birds you can spot. You just marked the same bird over and over on your check list. Where there really that many Great Tits outs today?

me: Birds? What?

@Bradley_JF I am more than happy to try searching for "great tit" on multiple search engines... for ummm.. science.

@flamingkeys@fosstodon.org the hype on the webpage sounds cool too... no idea what the fuck they are selling me, but the words make ensure that I know I want it.

@olamundo Ahh the illusive great tit, almost as contested as the yeti/bigfoot himself.

@louisrcouture

Ever since I met my first french canadian I knew one day I'd have to visit... hopefully some day soon. There is a slight possibility I was biased by the fact that she was the most beautiful woman I had ever set eyes on at the time as a hormone infected 14 year old :)

That said I've checked out french culture, and had a small taste of Canadian, so would be very interested to see how the french Canadian culture compares.
