I think 5 or 6. I’d get to experience living in different cultures without having to abandon friends and family in my current location.

Sync filters a lot in client.

And the rest of the world will say the same with respect to American spyware.

This is damn great.

Backlash. \ls would get you regular ls. Note that ls already is aliased on some popular distros with some common flags.

Something I did to someone who needed to know the effects of not locking ones screen when away: alias ls to echo 'Error: file not found'. Took them a good hour to figure out what was wrong with their machine 😅

Dd is known as disk destroyer for a good reason. Very easy to fuck yourself over.

The differences between California and Alabama are still an order of magnitude or more smaller than between e.g. Portugal and Latvia.

But indigestion is sort of the opposite of diarrhea?

For decades I pronounced albeit like “al-bayt”, instead of “all-be-it”. I only ever saw it in writing, and never hears anyone say it. Meaning made also so much more sense when I finally heard it being said out loud. Eye opener.

For men: formal handshake. For women: anything goes. Between men and women: awkward figuring out what to do.

Location: Netherlands.

But dandelion greens are actually edible. Reed has no edible parts.

I’d suggest to have the occasional look at the “most popular repos” ranking. It’s about 50% Chinese.

Super-interesting sometimes as it shows completely different tech trends.

I can’t unsee this is 🤣🤣

Oil lamps are not very complicated to make. And could be useful.

I’m a backend dev. I needed basically a single js function for my personal website that called out to some NPM package. I thought: I’ll do this the proper modern way, typescript and everything. Result: under 10 lines of code, but 12 config files (and 1.5h of fiddling with ES Modules vs CommonJS).

Snap is still alive? I haven’t heard name in quite a while.

You don’t have to feel bad for cutting grass. That’s grass its entire evolutionary skitch, albeit naturally with being grazed instead of mechanically cut.

Grass survives cuts extremely well. Most of its mass is below ground. By thriving in areas that are frequently grazed / cut, it outcompetes other plants. Natural meadows without grazers quickly turn into forests. But tree saplings don’t survive being eaten, so whenever there are grazers (or human cuts), grass outcompetes trees.

Oh wow lol.
