I don’t think we need a judge to tell that.

Also the irony that some “is it down”-detectors using Cloudflare are also down.

This escalated quickly.

I think the renaming is the right move, in order to not confuse anyone. Congratz “on the upgrade”. And well done asking what the community thinks before doing this. I wasn’t a fan of this, if the name was kept. But this way, it makes perfect sense.

For that I would rather recommend a terminal browser like lynx, w3m or links2 in example. curl is more like a single web request to download one piece of raw file (an html page or an image in example). It is not meant to interpret websites and display results. If you want save webpages for offline view, then something like wget.

Only if you are dependent on Ai, because you cannot program yourself or don’t want to.

I would just use an old phone, either yours or maybe from your family. A dedicated alarm clock that stays at home and is always charged. It has only one job: alarming. No need to make yourself dependent on a random online website. This can be done offline.

I don’t think so. Because they are different systems with different goals and different needs. If the community was named “Steam OS”, then it would make sense. But this community is not about the operating system, but the device itself.

If no password is needed to do authentication, then any script and any user is able to do whatever they want on your system. Basically every script and application has root access by default. That is something you do not want to have. Even more important in multiuser environments.

Still same to me.

Looks like one of the better tutorial / documentation series in a blog I have seen a while for Bash. Most are short and shallow. I think this is NOT an Ai slop. I won’t read it, because I know most of the basic stuff and some advanced stuff too. But from quick look I could recommend this. Well done.

Backticks are not very distinct, as they can be confused with single quotes (depending on the font). Also $() shows the beginning and end of the command very clearly. This is even more important when you have multiple of them in some variable in example. Not to mention that you can nest $(), but that is something I personally don’t like to do anyway.

There are some functional differences too: https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Command-Substitution.html , such as that backtick command set as an alias in your bashrc will be executed once on load. While $() version is executed every time you execute the alias. Also backslash is literal in the backtick variants (with exception). All in all I never use backtick command substitution; it’s confusing, limited and deprecated.

Right, I completely forgot about “Super”. It might even be the more common term.

The “Windows” key is just called “Meta” (Edit: or more commonly “Super”) key in Linux. It’s used for hotkeys, especially stuff that has to do with window management. I also set a simple press on it without other keys, which would open up “krunner” (to search or run apps).

!(r.SendNow || r.DryRun) requires you to read the entire statement and then negate the result. While !r.SendNow && !r.DryRun each part of the statement stands on its own and is negated for themselves. That is how I read. I like the Ai suggestion more, because that is how I would write it myself. What I like about it is, that the negation of is right there with the variable. It gets more important, the more you divide sub-expressions in multiple lines.

I take it.

One can promote and recommend something without using it.

Pretty cool. I know consoles could do this already and always wondered if it would be possible on Steam Deck too.

Thunderbird. I even use Thunderbird as my RSS reader too.

JSON output support for various commands, making it easier to parse flatpak command output programmatically

Nice. Instead manually parsing the stdout data, now there is a “proper API” to get information.
