If I was a JS programmer, I’d just write a bash script to download it every week for fun.

That one was hard. I had to keep reading it aloud for about half an hour…
Wow, that’s super useful! I don’t have thousands of hosts, but even with a dozen, it would save me so much time. Why have I never thought of doing this? Thanks for the idea! (now I just need a few lonely evenings configuring the thing)
What did they automate? I’m trying to get some ideas for my Neov… uhhhh… Emacs with evil-mode setup.
I swear there is an XKCD for that
Noob. I prefer to use a screwdriver to poke around the CPU and memory lanes
Agreed, but I am more of a “Shift + I” kind of guy

What You See Is What You Get
Thinkpad T60. A relative of mine got it from their employer, IBM, as a decommisioned machine that was only used by said relative. I was 4 years old. I played hours of GTA: San Andreas, then about a year later I installed Ubuntu which sent me down the Linux and C programming rabbit hole. I learned so much. Thank you, kind relative (whom I’ll not name, not doxxing myself).
Why? Never heard of it but it seems similar to Tails. I’d rather use Tails than something I’ve never heard about, but is there anything inherently wrong with it?
Everyone has been polarised into an “Us vs Them” mindset. Keep us divided and channeling our collective rage at each other, lest we actually find power in our overwhelming numbers. It hurts.
I’m ready to get downvoted, but this is exactly the reason I’m incredibly sceptical about any conflicts going on, including wars. I just think the possibility of the “two sides” working together just to polarize society is too goddamn high. But of course, as soon as you bring a subject like this into a discussion, you immediately get bombarded with the “you are against my idea so you’re an extremist” kind of vocabulary… For example: “Omg you’re pro-russian” - meanwhile I volunteer to help Ukrainian people, but I guess I love Russia when I do that. Shit’s wild…
Donald Trump
Oh, wait. He wasn’t fictional…
Nothing, really. I only check the chats with my best friends, look at the time, and check the school timetable (I do have it on paper, but they always make some changes and then I’m the idiot for going to the wrong class…)
I personally use JetBrainsMono, it’s my favourite. What do you guys think?
As a fellow cli junkie, I made my own script like this years ago. But I got rid of it as part of debloating my system. Whenever I want to extract something, I create a directory and move the archive there.
In this case they were still using English, with minor differences. Imagine one of the Indian externals writing an internal script that utilizes the Indian localisation. You’d have to whip out a translator or dive into the docs for a tool which you may have already used countless times and know how it works when instead, they could have simply learned the English arguments for the tool.
Nothing against people not being native speakers of English, I’m not one either. I just think that this creates more problems than it solves.
Yep, and when you try to troubleshoot shit, it all falls apart and you can’t really tell what’s going on under the hood…
Yep, this sort of behaviour translates to Windows paths also. Why would they name a directory “C:\Users\Example\Desktop”, when they can replace “Desktop” with a locale-specific name, which is not just a link to “Desktop”, but a completely different directory which breaks any scripts expecting “Desktop”.
We know MS well, their choice is clear :)
So I’m not going to change it
