  • Is there any specific reason to keep the docs in the wiki section? Vs markdown documents right in the wiki itself?

    I don’t know sorry :/ I do use a document but only because I want more control over the TOC (Table of content), which is a bit strange in the wiki itself, but that’s just personal taste !

    I’m not a Dev so take everything I say with a grain of salt, but what I would do is add a comment in the code to specify the change and link to your documentation file for more details (if needed). That’s probably one of the advantage of having your documentation not in the wiki page.

    This would keep your code page clean while having proper documtation in the same repo ! However, I have never seen any project doing it like that (for a good reason probably?).

    Here is my codeberg documentation repo about anime encoding in av1. It’s probably not what you’re looking for but maybe this can give you any idea or see if this could fit your workflow?

    Just talking from experience…

    but he’s also dependent on drugs and alcohol, and was high or drunk (or both) 75% of the time we called.

    IS a big redflag ! Not because of the alcohol or any other drug by itself… But because consuming any addictive substance on a regular basis is not going to end well (physically and psychologically).

    In retrospective from my past younger self, there are a lot of other things I could have done without being drunk/stone everyday.

    I do like to popup some molly/shrooms occasionally (festivals/introspection…) But I really regret the past life I had with this overconsumption and self destructive behavior (for myself and others).I’m lucky I didn’t fall to deep into the rabbit hole of drugs (cocain, heroin…). It’s a slippery path/slope !

    As a conclusion:

    Stay away romantically from people who have an addiction issue ^^ !



  • I will have forgotten a lot; it might be a different system environment. I need to be able to re-learn everything at a later time. Simple solutions that are widely-compatible, and do not rely on my memory are preferred.

    I don’t know if you have already considered it, but you can use a git repository as documentation tool ! It’s a GitHub flavored markdown syntax though.

    Fork the project, upload it to your own git repo (self-hosted codeberg, codeberg, github… Pick your poison :p) and add your own wiki documentation about your changes in the code.

    The only thing you should keep an eye on is probably the license? But I’m not the right person to discuss about licensing :/



  • Back in the day, that’s what I did ALOT on Windows. Specially because of piracy and my younger me having no idea what he was doing XD !

    Still happens on Linux with EndeavourOS but not for the same reasons ! There are millions times more ways to break stuff on Linux but I always learn Something new during the process.

    Story time:

    Learned the other day that some config files are loaded in a specific order and depending what display manager is installed. That was kinda eye opening to understand cause my system didn’t load .profile when .bash_profile was present and I didn’t understood why ! Thanks Archwiki !

    While I do agree with the general sentiment to rewire your expectation when switching from Windows -> Linux, I do not agree with the following statement:

    Linux is NOT for you, your personality precludes you from using it.

    Linux is for everyone… Though I do also agree if you’re doing something wrong (and you will…) Don’t cry or reflect your frustration on your OS. If there are 1000 ways to break Windows, there are a million times more ways to break your GNU/Linux OS. But most of the time, you’re a doing something wrong. However, sometimes an upstream update can Bork your system… (Yeah this happens 🤷‍♂️).
