I’ve never used swipe typing, so my data is probably garbage, but its kinda fun.

It seems to be the agreed definition in Astrophysics, that in order for a stellar object to be called “Star” it has to have nuclear fusion. While a redefiniton would be possible, there is no need and it would just cause confusion.

That’s exactly why I want OpenWrt on my router. To have that kind of control.

Anyway your answer is completely unrelated to my question.

The modem manufacturer might send traffic data to themselves. But the modem would need router capabilities for that, wouldn’t it?

Thank you!

After posting this yesterday when lying in bed trying to sleep (i posted directly before going to bed) I thought of a similar reason:

Since (as far as i understood it) a modem is just a device that converts between 2 different types of internet signals, the ISP also needs one on their end to connect me to their data center. So it would be way easier for them to spy on their end of the cable (or signal, or whatever type of modem is used) than on my end, since there isn’t really much happening in between.

tbh i’m pretty happy installing everything through Lutris

it works great for gog games and pirated games

deezer arls and qobuz access tokens from https://rentry.org/firehawk52 to dowload with https://github.com/nathom/streamrip

to make a good interactive shell

IFS is a special shell variable in bash, ksh and POSIX shells that lets you configure how the shell splits words

by default it splits at spaces tabs and newlines

I use fish a shell that is intentionally not POSIX compatible. While it borrows some principles from Bash and POSIX, it simplifies a lot of things and removes most footguns. Words are split at new lines in fish, which admittedly can also cause troubles, but not nearly as often as in bash and other POSIXy shells.

for i in path/to/dir/*
  dosomething_with_my_file $i
end

where is the problem? fish shell doesn’t split arguments at spaces

the standard keyboard layouts (qwerty, qwertz, etc.) are mostly trash

are there any good alternative keyboard layouts for your native language (finnish if im not mistaken)?

In Germany there is the Neo Family: Neo{,2}, NeoQwert{y,z}, Bone, Mine, … as well as offsprings of that, but I guess you need your diacritics: å ä and ö. While Neo layouts have these diacritics available, they are made for german, so only ä ö and ü are easily accessible.

not really

You can easily escape spaces with \ and my modern shell (fish) suggests and completes filenames for me anyway, so i don’t have to type more than the first word in more than 90% of cases.

How about “cool file name”?

All my systems use modern file systems that are case sensitive and can contain any character except / and \0.

holy fuck i didn’t even notice the chin text on that glowing emoji

WTF

When i wrote my comment i typed “i know Luke Smith is a bigot” at first, but then toned it down to “controversial” because i haven’t really watched or read a lot of him to know for sure. But that image basically confirmed what I thought I knew about him.

yeaah true

I know Luke Smith is controversial, but this Blogpost of him is kinda funny and fits the topic:

Why I Use the GPL and Not Cuck Licenses

the manpage has me covered tbh

ever heard of ghoti?

i don’t remember
