Shine Get
I mean, it wasn’t an unhealthy amount!
Spreading kindness to strangers, treating people with respect, and being a force for good on the internet is something everyone should aspire to.
Also I ate way too much glitter than usual this one time and I’ve never been able to live it down. Embrace, extend, shine.
And honestly, I find his phrasing today far more damming with its conciseness. It screams leadership.
Best comment I’ve read on Lemmy in weeks. Thought provoking, enlightening, and incredibly well written. Thank you for hanging out here.
Using Ed on an old Unix system feels like talking about WW2 with a veteran in a home except we both have shellshock.
Micro - not quite as fancy as Helix but it’s a static binary, bells and whistles included, and ready to go without config. If you’re still using nano/pico, micro is a nice step up in functionality without the complexity of vim et al.
Multiple cursors, splits and tabs, mouse support, syntax highlighting, keyboard shortcuts that are more noob-friendly / familiar, it’s great.
I’m with you. I have a lot of friends with Aspergers and other ASDs (one of the joys of a life in tech - lots of interesting and intelligent friends). Stallman’s post following his return to the board of FSF and his unnecessary public comments and debate around Epstein, his guests, and child abuse strongly reminded me of some of the troubles my ASD friends have gotten themselves into by not quite groking social cues, “reading the room”, or knowing which topics and situations welcome debate and which ones don’t or will likely get emotional responses from other participants rather than rational.
I think El Reg stated it well at the end of their article. Stallman may be a divisive figure, especially in recent years, however no one deserves to go through an illness that scary and difficult to fight, even with modern medicine on their side.
removed cancer.
Although Stallman is a controversial and polarizing figure, he is widely acknowledged as a pioneer. Without his efforts to formalize and promote Free Software, there would be no Open Source world today. There have been multiple expressions of concern across the internet, and many people wishing him the best.
That’s totally understandable. And I’ll admit, I’m still writing a fair few #!/bin/sh headed scripts as I to work on too POSIX systems. I think we’re a long long way off of the POSIX standard being superseded by something else.
You’re absolutely right. Fish isn’t really for scripting but is great for purely interactive use.
Nushell however offers a totally different approach to “scripting” and I can achieve far more in a nushell one-liner than I ever could in a POSIX shell as it’s far more comparable to Python Pandas than a shell.
For instance I can plot a line chart of file modifications over time directly in the shell with a single line of nushell. It’s mind blowing.

Been that way for decades. Or you can add it to the sidebar by dragging and dropping, or just edit Finder prefs:

Microsoft only started showing the Home folder by default in 11 I believe so it’s a pretty common pattern to not reveal the home folder (for some asinine reason).
First thing I do on any OS is build my own folder structure under my home.
The My Documents / Documents folder on Windows is a dumping ground for game saves and random applications. I no longer use it for saving my documents anymore…
It’s incredible, isn’t it? I’m already working on plugins for a variety of tasks so I can fire things off for malware analysis, push tables to data stores, and more. It’s such an obvious evolution of POSIX, I’m surprised it’s not already a standard across all shells.
Here’s a slightly better list. Call out to nushell and fish, my two modern shell favourites.
Aaah. Fedora recommends GDM anyhow I think, even for Plasma. I imagine they might be packaging things differently given how GNOME is the default (and the distro has a default) DM.
I don’t have this issue on Arch Linux with SDDM, Plasma, GNOME, and Xfce.
This is such a great idea, I never knew I wanted this either (and now I do).
Would be a great bit of feedback for the Arch devs, or even a pull request.
One way to identify libs could be looking at the package contents list since libs would write predominantly to /usr/lib and /usr/include (ignore writes to /usr/share) and probably no writes to /usr/bin. Not perfect but could give you a vague idea how to differentiate between bins and libs.
He’s been here the whole time!
