That's fantastic

It's dope, been using it to populate my Proton Drive recently. One of those tools that should get more recognition for being so awesome.

That's really neat! I love seeing creative takes like this. It's fun to see some fresh life breathed into an old favorite.

really appreciate you reporting back, thanks for sharing!

Here it comes

You are incredible, thank you so much for sharing!

We will always be stronger when we work together.

Such a neat piece of software, I remember streaming internet radio (somafm) and trying out different skins on my windows xp laptop back in the early 2000's and just feeling like the cyberpunk future had arrived. Milkdrop was my gateway drug. Fun seeing it make a comeback, I hope it develops a healthy community and we get some good software out of it. Internet drama be damned.

Proud of you both, be good to each other and have a great time. Thanks for sharing your lovely story!

Seriously, some solid snack game there, they fucking missed out

excited noises

Seriously, this was pretty cool, thanks for sharing!

Well we certainly appreciate it, thank you for your service tonight

The headline and the contents seem to be very different. Am I having a flashback?

This post has the best comments, thank you all for sharing!

Neat! Thanks for sharing!

This is an underrated comment here

I'm reading this again and had another thought. On an average Debian server reboot-required is really only ever triggered by kernel upgrades and those happen more often than you want but also not very often. They are also usually worth installing for either security or performance improvements.

It's usually ok to just set a convenient time for unattended-upgrades to run, let it watch for reboot-required and then reboot automatically. If your services can't handle starting at boot or turning off gracefully then you will have other problems anyway.

On the other hand, if even a few minutes of downtime every couple of months at a scheduled time is too much, just disable AUTO-REBOOT in the config file and do it by hand whenever it works for you. It's all good. Do what works best for you, that's the best part of Linux.

needs-restart is another great package that will check if package updates should restart any services to take effect and restart them if so. Goes nicely with unattended-upgrades

There's a package that handles most people's needs called unattended-upgrades. Has some options and some logic to do things like this. Check it out and let me know if you have any questions. Been using it on hundreds of servers for 5+ years.

I like your style cowboy
