I went to the baker and asked, "Can I have 3 wasps please?"
The baker said, "We don't sell wasps!"
I said, "Well you've got 6 in the window!"

My wife said that she wanted a divorce on the grounds of my gross immaturity.
I tried to reason with her but she said, " Look, that's it. I've had enough. I can't take it any more. It's over. Period".
Then I started laughing.
So she said, "What's so funny?"
I said, "You just said "period"!"

When I was at school the teacher asked me to name 5 animals from Africa, so I said, "4 monkeys and a lion, miss?"

Three grandmothers are chatting about getting old.
First one says, "Sometimes I'm standing by the fridge with the door open and I can't remember if I was just going to get something out or  put something back?"
Second one says, "Well, sometimes I'm at the top of the stairs and I can't remember if I just came up or was about to go back down?"
Third one says, "I'm lucky, I'm not having any of those issues, touch wood."
She knocks on the table then says, "Hang on, there's someone at the door."

A bloke misses the last train home. He decides to get a taxi for the 30 mile journey.
The taxi driver says, "Do you like riddles and puzzles?"
Bloke says, "Yeah, I don't mind. It will break up the monotony of the journey. Go for it."
Driver says, "OK, who is this person? Brothers and sisters have I none, but this man's father is my father's son."
The bloke is stumped for the whole journey. Not a clue.
When he arrives outside his home, he says to the taxi driver, "Nope, I can't work it out. Tell me."
Driver says, "It's me! Brothers and sisters have I none, but this mans father is my father's son, it has to be me, doesn't it?"
Bloke says, "Cool! I'll tell my wife when I get in. She likes riddles."
So, he goes indoors and tells his wife the riddle.
Wife thinks about it for an hour then says, "Nope, I give up. Who is it?"
Bloke says, "It's the taxi driver that brought me home!"

Meanwhile, another idiot has forged some £18 notes and thinks that, to be clever, he'll go into the bank to get them changed.
The cashier says, "Did you want 3 sixes or 2 nines?"

A guy goes into the bank with a sawn off shotgun and says to the cashier, "Give me all the cash!"
Cashier says, "No, I don't think so."
Gunman says, "Did you not see I have a sawn off shotgun pointed right at you?"
Cashier says, "Did you not see you've sawn the wrong end off?"

A guy wins the lottery and decides he will treat himself to a proper expensive watch.
The one he buys cost £500,000, is solid gold, diamond encrusted and is accurate to within 1 second in million years.
He's at home that evening admiring his watch when the News at Ten comes on TV.
He hears Big Ben's chimes for 10 o'clock and looks at his watch which is showing 7.30pm?
He slaps his son round the head and says "I told you to stop messing about with the bloody television!"

Based on the question that "if a tree fell in a forest and no-one was there, would it make a noise?" - If a man was in a forest mansplaining something and his wife wasn't there, would he still be wrong? tongue

I wanted to paint a tree and was told to go to the tree paint shop. I'd never heard of it, but apparently they have branches everywhere?

I was walking down the road and saw two council workers. One was digging a hole and the other was filling it back in. I asked what they were doing and one of them told me that the guy that plants the trees is on holiday!

I went to the R.S.P.C.A. head office today. It's really small. Not enough room to swing a cat. smile

See signature for the link to my Miyo based variants. Just MiyoXM at the moment.

Next stop: MiyoAWM+ which is MiyoLinux upgraded to Daedalus + AwesomeWM + Jonaburg's picom build.

Looks a bit like this so far:

Thanks for the feedback. Glad you like it. smile

#17 Re: Devuan Derivatives » [MiyoLinux] New Releases Uploaded » 2024-08-16 12:57:52

Hi all,

I recently created a spin called DXM but unfortunately, it wasn't as complete as I'd hoped so, while I was thinking about what to do with it, I decided that rather than start from scratch and build it up, I'd take something with a proven track record like MiyoLinuxJWM from 2022, update and upgrade it to Daedalus, add my DXM configs and see what happened? The result is MiyoXM!
The downside is that compared to DXM's 860ish packages it comes in at more like 1160(I was aiming for a lower package count).
The upside is that it's basically MiyoLinux with a twist, and it works a lot better using that as a base! smile
In case you're wondering, Miyo(Dan) himself is endorsing it and is happy for me to release it as MiyoXM. It is very minimal and the idea is to make it your own as per Miyo's philosophy. wink
If anyone is interested, the link to the iso is: https://u.pcloud.link/publink/show?code … mh17LarHR7
DXM is still available to download but needs some tweaking. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it because I'm planning a version of MiyoXM converted to AwesomeWM next. Not sure what to call it but MIMOSA came to mind: Made It My Own Super Awesome. I don't get out much. tongue

EDIT: I neglected to mention the username and password although I'm sure you could work it out easily enough. miyo and miyo. smile

@GlennW

Here is the link but it's still the same as when I uploaded it originally. I've been a bit busy elsewhere recently but I will get around to fixing it eventually. smile

https://u.pcloud.link/publink/show?code … pn2yRs6YTX

You(or anybody else that downloads it) would need to possibly follow T_A_P's instructions above regarding changing grub efi for grub pc in the live environment and/or adding wireless firmware if you need that too?

I built it to be very minimal and to work on my system, and it does, very nicely, hence it may be missing some packages for different use cases.

#19 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Devuan spin/rice » 2024-08-14 20:33:53

You can call it whatever you like. That you are getting some enjoyment from it is the main thing. smile

@m1k3

I sent you an email. wink

@T_A_P

I'm glad you like it. smile
It's not exactly ground breaking but the result of years of distrohopping and just not quite ever being satisfied.
Plus the overwhelming urge to keep fiddling about with things. wink
My philosophy is "If it ain't broke, fix it until it is!"

They both begin with the same letter? Dee and Dubya. wink Easily done.

@rayburn

I'll send you a link in a PM seeing as how you were the only one showing any interest in it originally. I am working on an improved version as I said above.

Moulder.

#24 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Devuan spin/rice » 2024-08-02 20:10:27

Yeah. What T_A_P said ^^. wink
Thanks for pointing out what was wrong with it. And still only 868 packages! Impressive. Glad you like it. smile
I am in the process of converting an old Miyolinux JWM from 2022, updating it and upgrading to Daedalus then adding the DXM configs(or WXM if you like tongue) because he did a better job of it than I did so it seemed to make sense to kind of refactor that rather than try to be clever and make my own from scratch. It's around 1150 packages so far but I might try to get that down a bit lower.

Moulder.

#25 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Devuan spin/rice » 2024-07-31 11:43:18

OK, I think it's ready to share.

Maybe I was a bit hasty. I tried to install it from the original snapshot and refracta didn't seem to be working, so I'll have to have another look at it.
Sorry to the 10 people that downloaded it so far. It does work as a live environment though. smile
Miyo was kind enough to mention I should include/exclude certain firmware too so I'll look into that as well.
For now, I'm removing the link to the download.
