tbh ubuntu just werks

pretty decent corporate backed distro

proof?

it would probably be easier to take an existing matrix client implementation and make it look like telegram.

i don’t think the ui will be much of a problem, the backend stuff: communication with the server, enryption, device validation will probably be the most complicated to implement.

But if you do it, I’d probably try it. The existing matrix clients are all not very good.

Looks like a Dark Souls 1 Big Boi Skeleton

the default systemd service will run caddy as the caddy user i think

otherwise you can choose any user to run a systemd system service

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

what?

mine is /maɪ̯n/

me is /miː/ (UK), /mi/ (US) or /mɪ/ (northern England)

baroque is /bæˈɹɒk/ (UK) or /bəˈɹoʊk/ (US)

do you just want to add an /iː/ between fr and fr?

/fɹiːfɹ/?

i don’t understand why most people on the internet don’t use IPA for conveying pronunciation

while it is more complicated, and unless you are a phonology nerd, you have to look things up (including me), it is incredibly more concise

it is, in fact, the only way to concisely convey any pronunciation (excluding single language focused phonetic notations)

different english dialects have different pronunciation: e.g. fur can be /fɜː(ɹ)/, /fɜɹ/ and /fʌr/

While this is not the case for your comment, others also use made-up words for conveying pronunciation. Ghoti is a perfect example why that is problematic.

afaik english doesn’t have rolled r’s

but i appreciate the humor
