Yeah. I know. And I could tell, but it drives me batty. But also: thorn is an English character!!

Has someone who can mostly read Greek and English. I hate this. I hate this so much.

This assumes IBM will act rationally, which doesn’t have much recent precedence.

Oh. I like this idea. This is the kind of thing AI would be good for.

This is what I use too. But, I would like to not have a Google device as part of my chain. (I say on my Pixel phone, with stock android).

I use to give people shit that the default ls command was from 2002. They finally fucking upgraded it in like 2020. But yeah. That’s some old fucking software.

I think Colorado could force AZ to do what they want just by threatening to turn off the water.

When’s the last time you used Wayland? I tried a few years back and there were quite a few paper cuts.

I’ve been using sway for about six months and there is one obnoxious paper cut, and one thing that just doesn’t work.

The paper cut for me is a java app that won’t render menus correctly. Most menus work, but there are a few that don’t draw properly.

The one thing that still doesn’t work is deskflow.

Screen sharing with zoom and Google meet and jitsi work fine. Keyboard input changes work fine, and most things are just hunky dory.

Uh… Have you tried Fish? Or even a modern ZSH? Like oh my ZSH?

I guess I don’t want notepad tools. But I can set my key bindings in ZSH to vi bindings and do things like:

$ cat <<EOF | sparql --data=some.ttl --query=/dev/stdin
SELECT ?s ?p ?o
WHERE {
  ?s ?p ?o . 
} 
LIMIT 10
EOF

And that gives me a real basic text editor. Granted with syntax highlighting on, it thinks I’m trying to do ZSH scripts. But if you needed a ZSH script it would be perfect.

Second, tab works great for auto complete, it even suggests stuff (as long as you have that enabled, or the command supports it. Some clis do not have support for auto complete, but the shell does)

Modern shells are pretty fucking awesome.

I don’t know any hieroglyphs, but I do know cuneiform. Would rather read cuneiform than regex!

This is the one I use! Might have to look at regexer though

I have had a paper map direct me through a gated community. Thankfully the tools in the truck unfastened the hinges. Still bugs me. It was a county road!

Same. Same. I know some people use their phones, or GPS devices, but when I’m backpacking, I want a paper map and a compass. I bought two a few months back for planning a trips this summer.

I think it might be more the fact that he is a workaholic and expects everyone else to be. But yeah, I don’t think he is quite as progressive as he thinks he is.
