useful extra things re: trivial unit files fur systemd 

@MindmeshLink

  • under the service section, WorkingDirectory=/path/to/desired/working/directory; if your script picks up configs from the current directory this will make setup simpler
  • to run as a user who is not root, User=username, in the same section
  • if needed, you can specify as many Environment="ENV_VAR=whatever" lines as required under that same section
  • (you can also specify an environment file with EnvironmentFile=/path/to/file; the syntax is in VAR="contents" furmat)

trivial unit files fur systemd 

@MindmeshLink the trivial systemd script fur daemons that are Just A Purrocess You Simply Run From The Command Line is

$ cat /etc/systemd/system/my-unit-name.service
[Unit]
Description=name of this service

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=[command line here (you can use spaces)]

# the following make systemd automatically re-up the service every time it downs, which is usually desirable behavior
Restart=always
RestartSec=1 # you usually want some throttling in case it keeps exiting immediately

then run systemctl daemon-reload, and then systemctl enable my-unit-name.service (.service is optional). use systemctl status my-unit-name.service if you want confurmation that it worked fine.

standard output and error should automatically get logged to the systemd journal; you can view that output with journalctl -u my-unit-name.service

re: dune, orientalism 

@noracodes (from what i remember though your assessment of the movie’s lack of such symbols is accurate)

re: dune, orientalism 

@noracodes (i never read the books so i didn’t notice)

re: dune, orientalism 

@noracodes i liked the movie’s overall purroduction design and aesthetic sensibility a Lot but this aspect of the movie is unfurtunate

Snowflake Challenge 2024: challenge 2 

fur , i am setting myself some goals:

  • this is by far the most impurrtant goal to me: i have a somewhat ambitious, embarassingly self-indulgent, and somewhat purretentious fic i have started writitng; i hope to actually put it to paper this year
  • while i am a furry, i am not much into the fandom aspects of furry fandom. aside from, uh, the funny number website (which is a bad website, i hate that i use it). i would like to rectify this, but i do not know exactly how to start
  • i have two mainline sonic games that i have purrchased but not yet played; i would like to get to them. making a let’s play of sonic 06 in purrticular would be very fun
  • i would like to a video essay on the sonic movies, to hopefully introduce criticisms that i think are, frankly, quite basic, but rarely made
  • i want to draw again
  • i would like to handwrite letters
  • i really need to get back into meowstodev. there is too much to do, but getting the instance up to date, and then incorpurrating the changes from (i think) hometown that we wanted, would be a great start

this is so many goals lol
