@MelissaBearTrix no wukkas... bung on a blindfold, then you won't know tis too dark, then youse can happily proceed #cunningplan
many many many hours later...

- it turned out that, despite all appearances to the contrary, in fact
#distrobox actually is [mostly] working ok in my main pooter's real โ€‹โ€‹ ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
- there clearly are two bugs with it [again, only here, not in my VMs], coz as i showed before, the process of entering the container never [seems to] complete... but i discovered by accident several hours later, when, furious at this idiocy, i had begun contemplating a clean installation of
โ€‹โ€‹ ! ... the new container/s do get listed in the plasma apps menu despite the apparent terminal hang ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
- when said new DB container terminal/s are then launched, they incorrectly continue to indicate they are
โ€‹โ€‹ sessions, but despite this mis-labelling, in fact it/they are the container ones, eg, in this new โ€‹โ€‹ sid one, pacman throws errors of "not installed", which is the first clue, then apt ofc does run ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

so, after unnecessary hours if not day of stress & profanities, i'm now belatedly orf to da races re my
#cunningplan

well now i am really getting the shits. my #cunningplan teeters on the brink of ruin, & for the stupidest most galling of reasons... none of the #distroboxes i create, will actually fucken START. they just hang at

[~] 18:31:47 Sat May 02 $> distrobox enter DebianTestingDB Starting container...
that was 25' ago

or another
[~] 18:37:41 Sat May 02 $> distrobox enter my-alpine-container Starting container...
or
[~] 16:48:42 Sat May 02 $> distrobox enter testdb Starting container... i abandoned that one after 90' of nothing happening.

gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Should We Dam The Bering Strait To Keep The AMOC From Collapsing? - CleanTechnica

A study from the Netherlands suggests building a dam across the Bering Strait could stabilize the AMOC. Is that a good idea?

@Tooden i simply cannot envisage any conceivable way that this #CunningPlan could go all pear-shaped ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

@treleanor in more recent decades ofc, straya has taken with alacrity & enthusiasm to its #CunningPlan of storing our soil in the Tasman Sea, & even NZ

#climatecrisis #duststorms

@sister_ratched yebbut mebbe the two of them cooked up this whole #CunningPlan to make a killing in the book sales? you know it makes sense!

@AMonkeyInSilk elbow's ongoing impersonation of a rwnj continuing to go very well. tbh he's rather masterful at it. simply nobody could guess that in reality he's a seething leftie firebrand. all part of his #cunningplan , shirley?

@Susan60 three thingies, fwiw

  • it's rooly good -- onya! ๐Ÿฅ‡
  • was bugging me that you look familiar [first saw this thread last night], & just now it clicked why... your original, otherwise one of the prior, profile pics was you, micro, many many times over, on a disco ball or something, & i recall i zoomed it on it one day. busted! heehee
  • "So many alterations & corrections" -- an alternative approach that would dramatically reduce sketching & revision time, would be to dash orf a quick initial sketch, then take it to a plastic surgeon as their template to apply. i see no difficulties with this #cunningplan
