Greensleeves is almost 500 years old. I'm sure there were other very popular songs when it came out, but Greensleeves had to staying power to still be here. What do you think is today's Greensleeves? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

B.P.E. by Girls5Eva I had this song in my head all day yesterday. https://open.spotify.com/track/7jYbX7gU0Pe2b0nZR7OSH5?si=P9aE_s8ER3unRraCRrV0dA Surely it will be known by all in the future... hehe.

Why not use bash-completion? The running example you gave is dangerous - you could end up running one or more of the wrong executables.

It is so convenient and free. in c/memes@lemmy.ml

FOSS or GTFO!

Who do you consider a Great Author of the last 50 years or so (first well-known work after 1970)? I'd like to get a feel for who's who in modern literature. Any language/culture. Fiction only. in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Daniel Suarez "Daemon" series was fantastic!

Does anyone run their desktop environment containerized? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

At work the only option I had was to get a Macbook, but I don't like MacOS, so I installed UTM and I run Arch Linux (ALARM for aarch64) as my desktop. It's functional, but of course I'd rather have a beat up, 5 year old Dell or Thinkpad so I could just run Arch natively.

VM suggestion for gaming? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

I've been a Linux gamer for a few years now. I don't have Windows at all. Between Steam's "Steam Play" and Lutris, you can play most games without issue. To find out if the games you want to play will work on Linux, check https://www.protondb.com/ and https://aclist.github.io/. Good luck!

Home Alone, hehe

Does mountain dew taste better than black tea? Yes. Does it also cost 30 times as much to get the caffeine fix? Yes. in c/memes@lemmy.ml

I love the giant, inexpensive tins of ceylon tea at my local international market. If you can afford it, buy a bottle of rose water to add to the tea. Perfection. And of course, don't throw away the leaves - steep them again - the second steeping is even better than the first one.
