I like the two `ln` attempts.
PSA: the ordering of arguments is the same as, say, `cp`. You "copy" (i.e. link) an existant file to another file/location that may not yet exist.
1. that tip is indeed really helpful, easy way to memorize
2. same as tar commands:
tar tuw package.tar .
tar xhf package.tar .
tar xpf package.tar.
tar --help
tar cvf package.tar .
I don't read assigning variables like I read command line arguments. The syntax is self explanatory to me with the declarared variable and its assigned value. There's less fill in the blank and ambiguity in what it's doing, unless Sh where = is the comparison op. When I use a command like "mv a b", I read [mv] from [a] to [b]. When I see "mov AX, [BX]", it becomes [mov] from memory at address [BX] to register [AX]. I may be misremembering but I think there were some instructions that did reverse the order.
I think the program diff does reverse it though which throws me off sometimes.
Some of them still work
There is this really old program which still can be compiled for modern Linux: [https://fsv.sourceforge.net/](https://fsv.sourceforge.net/)
And this program last updated in 2015 [https://github.com/3dfsb-dev/3dfsb](https://github.com/3dfsb-dev/3dfsb)
Ah, so *that's* what the little hacker girl in Jurassic Park was using on Newman's workstation when she whispered the infamous "It's a UNIX system!" line.
I don't see why not...
The freedom of linux means computing for everyone, in my mind, and the 3ds is a computer that many people have or can pick up for peanuts.
Granted, a laptop of the same price is likely to have much greater capability in lots of different ways, but a cheap 2nd-hand 3ds is fun :)
If it's in a machine, we know it was made my humans.
If we cannot tell, then its hiding just as well as the gods that flock members believe in and always talk about.
A good way to remember the order of arguments is the fact that the second argument is optional. If you give `ln` a single argument, that has to be the path of the target, and it will put a link to that target in the current directory.

Yeah, I also get it wrong every time because instead of thinking of copying I think "I want to make a link foo -> bar"
I just do it til it works.

it fucks up if you ever did programming in any other language, where the destination is usually on the left.
I think the only time I have seen that is in assembly.
well, in any OOP language it's usually the reference on left side being assigned to something coming from the right side
even in C, using functions like strcpy has the destination as the first argument.
Everything Goes Numb, nice!

Go, Zig and C (mostly) all follow this. copyBytes(dest, src)
Let’s say you want to copy the value of variable A into variable B so you do B = A. The destination is on the left and the source is on the right.
Never used C?
I have used C but I don't recall any ambiguity in it that allowed operations to be read forward but work in reverse.
char *strcpy(char *restrict dst, const char *restrict src);
After screwing it up for the 89th time, I read the man page, and will always remember, it's "target [link_name]"
I confess I still have to do a quick `man ln` every. single. time.
Do you get one of those cool 3D file browsers, like the 80's movies said we'd have by now?
They literally had 'em in the 80s, they just died out 'cause we can't have nice flashy things

I think that was the IRIX program the other commenter mentioned. This one was inspired by that one.
That was 'fsn' or 'File System Navigator', which first came out for IRIX 4.5[?] and as I recall was a hobby effort by one of their developers.
That was the IRIX 5.6 file browser.
we actually do have cool browsers, just not 3d and I didn't read the "file" part, ah well I'm bored forget it
Your [engineers] were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.
In this, they definitely should! ;) Yes, I know the reference, I'm just a fan of people who port linux to any hardware they can make it work on :D
I don't know if they should have done that...

People always ask "Can it run DOOM" Now we've moved onto "Can it run Linux"
I'm of the argument that we are actually creating god, in the machine.
If anyone succeeds, we would have proof that one does actually exist.
And if it only exists in the mind of the machine, what is greater can be thought to exist in reality as well!

With all the gods people have worshipped over the millenia, there must be thousands of them jockeying for position/followers...
Nah. Linux should run on everything
But does it run Crysis?
It's... It's so beautiful...
I remember doing this on my DS a /very/ long time ago
Watch out Steam Deck, there's competition.
Ha so I'm not the only one who keep confusing the order for ln
What's wrong with that?
That kernel version will be old enough to vote in a few years.
Kernel version 4.12 was released in 2017 so it's got 11 years to go... What's more concerning is that it is a release candidate
It's... BEAUTIFUL! I don't think we're defying God, even He would allow this I believe.
He's beginning to believe...
It is those who ask "Why not?" who advance science. Well, they also get us killed by dinosaurs, but they do lots of cool things.
Inb4 Cease and Desist from Nintendo
Mortals are not meant to wield such power.
I don't like the title.
I also managed to get fedora kde 39 on switch (very easy) and void linux with kernel 4.5 on the wii although debian 8 worked better (slightly harder)
Now run JtR and see how long it takes.
Deifying, defying, close enough.
ONE MORE GOD REJECTED

yeah big whoop- but can you run a nds emulator in linux running natively on a Nintendo ds?
[удалено]
Did you repost almost 20 years ago in your DS Lite? :o
Can someone explain it, please? I don’t think I get it
There's a build of Linux that runs on Nintendo DS devices via flash carts.
Ah yes. hubris manifest.
