Yeah fuck that shit. I was on a good stretch of not thinking about Artax death for I don’t know 1 or 2 years and this post comes from nowhere like sucker punch. This is like the twisted version of The game. Dammit.

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.

And the fact that these big software companies are more valuable than TSMC and ASML shows how stupid these evaluations are.

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.

Papyrus is mentioned and I feel the call to bring this SNL’s sketch: Papyrus to Today’s Luck 10000

This is the only series that I rewatch a bunch of times. I miss it so much, after 1 or 2 years I have to watch it again.

It is so good, I wish people would freak out more about. Weirdly enough I wish they do not make sequels, as not to tarnish this beautiful, perfect series.

I may be wrong but I think judges are not elected nor politically appointed in Brazil (I think the exception is the supreme Court). They are like other public jobs that you have to pass an exam and compete with other candidates.

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

An old but gold would be any Max Payne game. I only played the first one but boy, was it awesome. I think it ticks many of what you mentioned:

• 3rd Person
• Story- driven (it has a great narration and comic book style to tell the story between chapters)
• solid gun fight with the famous bullet time. There is no upgrade, just new guns
• Not complicated, go forward and shoot things
• No attributea at all.

The only thing you may not like is the graphics.

I totally agree with elements of a art genre being used and becoming popular and all. I guess that is in part how new genres form. And that no work is “true” 100% in a genre otherwise it would be just more of the same and all that. I just feel that there is a line, a feel to say that this work core genre/vibes is cyberpunk instead of having cyberpunk elements. And for sure there are works that defy having a core genre at all and is really a blend of genres or its own thing.

I just want to push back slightly, in my opinion, about Ghost in the shell forgoing the low life. I think it is not the main aspect and main theme but I think it shows it in the aesthetic of the city and some characters like the garbage truck driver. I feel if it had no low-life aspects the profession of garbage management would look different.

After seeing a compilation video of Philomena Cunk telling stories or her mate Paul now every time I see that name in my mind I read “my mate Paul” with her voice.

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.

That says something about you… and me.

*And vim~~/nvim~~.

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