Oh yeah. That’s right. But wrong place I think, like the other comment mentioned.

You don’t even need to specify the decompression algorithm anymore, I don’t even know if it was mandatory at some point but since I was introduced to Linux like 20 years ago tar would already extrapolate the decompression from the filename extension. Now for the compression I think you do need to include the algorithm, it would be nice if it would default to the extension on the supplied filename also.

I think find UI is so bad every time I use it I think about hacking a script just to make it simpler for my use case. At the same time I am very reluctant to use one of this new versions of standard commands trying to reinvent the wheel.

Some things I don’t link about find:

1. How the directory needs to be the first argument. I get the reasoning but it is such a pain, specially if you are using it with the same query repeatedly in different paths.

2. The parenthesis to set order of matches, you are doing it in the shell so you have to escape them which is never fun.

3. The fact that -name does not match partial names and there is not a version that do so you have to keep doing stuff like -name "*foo*" and of course you have to escape that shit or risk you shell expanding it. Having the GLOB version is nice but there could have a more ergonomic way to do this type, which I assume is a very common use case.

4. Actually, doing more complex logical matches is always a pain and it would be nice to have a easier way to do some common operations.

5. The fact that when you do some complex match then the -print is not automatic anymore or the the behaviour is kinda weird. And is a pain to add it in all logical branches or do it in a way that you do not repeat a lot.

Anyway, sorry for the rant.

No TempleOS (never mind. It is there… but in the wrong place) no HannaMontanaLinux and you call it a meme? How dare you.

Thank you for saying it. I have seen this on YouTube more and more and I thought I was going crazy. Videos that seems normal, done by the person and narrated by them but the script was was full of this “not just X, Y” type of pattern, and I was like “man if you gonna bother to record your narration why not at least fix the obvious LLM vibe of the text”. Like, if you gonna use AI and try to be sneak about it why not so it right. It is so middle of the road, like, not fully automated AI slop, but also not fully your creation. I question if not other parts were IA also, like the narration is now so good that I can’t pick it up, specially if not my native language. In any case, it is a shame, it like ruins all the effort the creator put elsewhere.

That is just too on the nose, didn’t they know that Frankie Boyle quote?

“Not only will America IDF go to your country and kill all your people. But they’ll come back 20 years later and make a movie about how killing your people made their soldiers feel sad.” — Frankie Boyle

It is an old joke that I thought was very well known, at least for people that know about emacs, my mistake, but hey, Luck 10.000 of you, so here it goes:

“Emacs is a great operating system, lacking only a decent text editor”

I love insta ramen. I really do, and you can do a lot of variations, and I am not saying stuff that is like cook a meal and add ramen. Just simples stuff that is extra delicious.

For example, if I like the seasoning I sometimes save extra seasoning packages to make it extra seasoned.

You can make it and drain most or all water, add seasoning and butter and that is it, awesome.

You can drain some or all water and add heavy cream or even just milk, butter and extra seasoning. I like this chicken of beef bouillon, but any seasoning that you like works, just need to be something that dissolves easily and you don’t need to cook for a long time you extract flavor.

If you are feeling fancy you can add some hotdogs.

That is it, I love it and would eat more and pass on a lot of dishes for insta ramen but when I do people think I am only choosing ramen because I don’t like the other options, like a last resort, but cound not be further than the true. I tell people I really like it and prefer it, but they have a hard time believing me.

*And vim~~/nvim~~.

I am sorry? Are you suggesting that somehow an text editor has more functionality than a fucking OS?

People keep saying that but you have to realize that laws are only enforceable or even a thing when the mechanisms in place and society wants to enforce it. There is a bunch of outdated laws that everyone kinda decides to not enforce it anymore. And here we have all the 3 powers that should keep each other in check all working together. Most of Congress (both the Senate and the House of representative), the courts and the executive branch all supporting the government agenda, and it is both on all levels of government, local, state and federal. And to make it worse, all the media corporations that sometimes work as a 4th power also support it and close to half the population also supports the government. So it does not matter if it is legal or not.

GRIS

I know that you said multiplayer, but if I can be one more voice on single player games that you guys may enjoy playing in turns I strongly recommend GRIS. It is so beautiful and I think it suits itself well for shorter play sessions.

Some of the hardest part in software development are testing, validation, code review, is so tedious, the majority of people don’t like to do it so is hard to find qualified people and so on. This AI thing just put way more stress in the already dire part of the whole development.

Hey, I know this drug, it makes your snipe zoom more stable in Metal Gear Solid.

So, what you are saying is that you didn’t see them being summoned, just that the despawn takes a couple of hours. That makes sense otherwise it would be too op.

I don’t know if that is the reason but I wonder if the recent ruling that made Firefox loose on the cash income from Google as a default search engine has them doing a similar type of deal with AI companies, even Google, like, Firefox has a built-in interface for AI and the backend you can choose but the default one is one that some AI company pay a fee to be.

If that is the case I think it is fine, it is like a wink-wink situation, you have to have it enabled by default and with a default provider for it to be worth something for someone to pay for the privilege, and then the users can simply change it be gone with it without affecting the payout. (Unless the pay or renew pay has some metric like use statistics)

How parsing (as in programming languages and commands) works is so interesting and is so hard for people to grasp and is really interesting to see how what you think is obvious is not for most people. I saw it all the time when teaching cs102. It is so hard to explain the difference that a blank space makes and why sometimes it is necessary and why sometimes it is not.

That is all to say I find it really interesting and funny when OP says double pipe, because of course it looks like double pipe, you gonna tell me That || is something completely different than a single | ?

There was a video essay by Folding Ideas (From “the line goes up” fame) about a weird documentary narrated/hosted by Idris Elba, and If I am remembering it right it was basically a propaganda/ad film targeting people like peepers and that are skeptical of the government and such. So I believe there is at least a push to make gold more marketable and in fashion, like De beers did for diamonds.

I don’t know if I am allowed to link to outside content (because the rule of no reposting outside content) but in any case it should be easy to find for anyone interested.

But then there would be less garlic :(
