@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social @tlenewspodcast@podcast.thelinuxexp.comSo my perfectly usable 2012 laptop won't be usable anymore. Sounds great for the environment =P

@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social @tlenewspodcast@podcast.thelinuxexp.com Oh by the way. Bumping the minimum x86_64 version is worse than you probably think. It goes far beyond just the kernel, so if Ubuntu derivatives wanted to keep supporting older systems, they would need to rebuild all packages.The gist of it, is that when you compile programs, you can selected which instruction sets the compiler should use (In gcc, this is done via the -march flag). If you were to try to run the software on an older CPU, you will get an "Illegal Instruction" error.

What a fucking roller coaster this week has been. Got fired from my job, then got re-hired thanks to the intervention of a supervisor. Pretty sure I just lost 5 years of my life due to stress lol

Man, i've done quite a bit of #Perl #Programming today lolLearned how to use the perldoc command (Which is fantastic).Learned how to make a "virtualenv" of perl (It's not really called that, but it's effectively what it is.) with Cpanminus.Learned how to use Arrays.Learned how to do regex.Learned how to use environment variables.So i'd say I did pretty good today =P

@johnny@gamethattune.club The 2 biggest things I like about it. Is:It's a stable language that doesn't decide to add and remove features every few months and thus breaks scripts with almost every upgrade. coughPythoncoughIt's faster than Bash by a long shot. As a matter of fact, the reason I worked on Perl so much today was because I was replacing a bash script with a perl script. It brought the execution time down from 10 seconds to less than 2 seconds. Which makes compiling and installing my program a lot faster. (If you're curious, it had to do with finding and bundling libraries, while also checking if the library was on a blacklist to not be included.)

@jrdepriest@infosec.exchange PerlMonks has helped me a lot. Especially with finding the best CPAN modules to use for a specific job!

@mjgardner@social.sdf.org @johnny@gamethattune.club And on Windows, the constant forking is even worse for performance lolIn the time i've been using #Perl, I tend to only use backticks for one off shell one-liners, or to use a system tool like ldd.

Does anyone else try to let companies/organization know when one of their e-mail addresses have been breached and being used for phising?

So, i'm wanting to learn more about #Perl, and I think the best way to do that, is to make my website in it using CGI and HTTP::Server::Simple.The basics I got down has actually taught me something interesting:The #HTTP protocol is really really simple. I've always heard it's bloated, but I think people confuse the HTTP protocol with the Javascript/W3 standard.

Sometimes I wonder how many alerts the FBI gets when a system administrator or programmer searches things up such as:"How to kill a hung child?"

Time for my annual #Email cleaning. So far on my Main e-mail i've exported 200MB of e-mails (4,200 in total) and compressed down the mbox file to 32MB. Not bad.

@wholesomedonut@fosstodon.org I can give plenty of reasons why I don't like Gnome as a desktop (I like the eco-system funny enough, just not the desktop itself.). But that'd be a long post lolMaybe I should make a blog post about it sometime.

#Perl has definitely been in the most fun i've had with programming in a while! Love how simple everything is to do, all while still having C-syntax and without a heavily bloated engine like Node. Maybe i've finally found the high-level language i've been searching for, for years lmao
