  • 125g per person if you only eat that, 80 to 100 if you eat something else too

    Good brands you can usually find outside of italy with not outrageous prices are Rummo and Garofalo, less good but still okay, and at a generally lower price, you can usually find Voiello or De Cecco

    Barilla is the most common, but outside of their spaghetti I’m not a big fan

    There are a bunch of others, but these tend to be easier to find

    That’s all, thank you for coming to my TED talk



  • It’s probably a problem with the UEFI, the windows info got overwritten, and you can probably fix this with efibootmgr

    It happened to me too, but unfortunately it was some years ago and I’m not at home to find the related notes that I took. I remember there was a windows utility to rewrite the boot loader. But probably in your case the boot partition is still okay, just the UEFI entry got overwritten and you just have to add it back manually.

    Check the troubleshooting section of the wiki page to have a tip on the windows booting location

    Considering you seem to dislike the whole concept of Bots, isn’t the Bot toggle in the Lemmy profile exactly what you want?

    It auto ignores all posts and comments made by accounts marked as Bots. Sure, the owner of the account has to correctly mark it, but I feel that can easily be solved by reporting unmarked bots.

    But I’m interested, if you would like to expand on it, how would you make a bot opt-in?
    The only way I could think of is through PMs, but that would be cumbersome, and generally unfit for purpose, for all the involved parties.







  • The Heroic Games Launcher is (IMHO) by far the best interface to gog you can have on linux.

    You can find it on the AUR if you use arch, which makes it pretty straightforward to install.

    The next version will integrate with the Galaxy API using the comet project, which should make it even better.

    The only problem I had with it is that, once upon a time, there was a bug with downloading some games (Cyberpunk 2077, in my case) and I had to compile the git version of Gog-dl and target that in the settings… but the fact I could even do that is great by itself.







  • disable this system security feature temporarily,

    This should be - if I’m not mistaken - possible using the pip env var I posted about earlier, like this:

    PIP_BREAK_SYSTEM_PACKAGES=1 sudo apt install howdy

    Or exporting it for the current shell, before running the installation

    export PIP_BREAK_SYSTEM_PACKAGES=1

    But I personally highly discourage it, because - AFAIK - if it even works it will mess up the deps in your system.


  • I’m no python expert but reading around it seems your only real solution is using a virtual environment, through pipx or venv as you already had found out, or using the

    --break-system-packages
    
    * Allow pip to modify an EXTERNALLY-MANAGED Python installation
    
      (environment variable: `PIP_BREAK_SYSTEM_PACKAGES`)
    

    pip flag which, as the name suggest, should be avoided.

    EDIT: After rereading I got your problem better and I was trying to read the source for Howdy to see how to do it, so far no luck.
