@nixCraft I can't even tell if scraps is a typo for scrapes in this context.

@nixCraft Dude. Why the FUCK would you want to download *anything* from Microsoft!?!

@nixCraft still they increase prices with 20% to 40%. Cloud first strategy with MS 💸🚀

@nixCraft I had aliases to grep and edit crontab

For important cases, my crontabs live in a file under versin control. Then I just I replace it with 'crontab crontab-for-this'.
AFAIK the edit option existed in 4.3 BSD (first time I used cron) but for some reason I opted using file under my home directory. Could be that the default editor was vi (or ed) and using emacs was much easier.
But yes, for odd jobs in random computers I just kick crontab -e.

@nixCraft Just switch to Dvorak. Problem solved. E and R are on opposite sides of the keyboard.

@nixCraft That's beautiful, dude.

@nixCraft No need to verify backups if you don't make backups!

@nixCraft @briankrebs

@nixCraft I've been a Debian user for almost 20 years and I've been using the same simple coffee machine for almost 10 ...

@nixCraft Oh, that's why one of the arguments to kill is THAC0!

@nixCraft I've always found them kinky. Touch, mount, head, etc.

@nixCraft ahaha :catraLaugh:

@nixCraft

"And then..."

@nixCraft gotta also be pounding F2, F10 along with DEL

For some reason, this Mac Mini comes with a removable SSD. However, RAM, CPU, GPU, and everything else is glued to the motherboard.

@nixCraft

If COBOL was so bad, why are they paying COBOL devs a fortune?

You know, they say the only way to write a truly secure app is to create an empty file or repo. But even then, some JabaScript-powered IDE will probably crash trying to open it, and boom! You've got a security vulnerability. 😂

@nixCraft @9Lukas5 Content Warning "Blood".🙏

@nixCraft totally relatable!

@nixCraft Stop complaining, you're holding it wrong!

@nixCraft@mastodon.social How to rizz a girl with Arch Linux

@nixCraft Sounds like a challenge to stop him, huh, girls? :0340:

"Wait, don't leave me!"

@nixCraft A while loop, that is intended to terminate, must move the state in a direction such that the exit condition is eventually satisfied. Not sure this is happening here.

@nixCraft laughs in IPv6

@nixCraft Mh, I mean Dual Stack already has the v6 part not behind a NAT, sooo... this is already the status quo. 🤷‍♀️

@nixCraft You guys have a public IP address?

@nixCraft so, it is ok to talk about emacs then?

What's the first rule of Vim fan club?

You must know at least 5 different ways to exit Vim. But you'll still somehow manage to get stuck. 😂

@nixCraft Unfortunately "until it stops getting security updates" is effectively the same as "until it dies" for many, though some ignore it longer than they should. LineageOS can help some there.

Hopefully my P8P makes it through all 7 years of its updates+support.

@nixcraft I bought my current phone for Mario Kart Tour, Im using It until It dies.

@nixCraft I see at least three zoologically named packages, you definitely have a fun night ahead

@nixCraft
Is not a feature, neither a bug; just small non functional or not lethal mutation.

@nixCraft speaking of animal names, I can't seem to find package python3-numba on Noble Numbat and this combination of strings is being frustratingly difficult to Google for

@nixCraft
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@nixCraft the reason why i got 365 licenses already and wont stop buying more :D

@nixCraft I have 420 licenses 😂

@nixCraft cutting down costs in prevision of the revenue loss from Google paying Mozilla to make Google it’s default browser, caused by the defeat from Google on court on a antitrust case, brought by the Departement of Justice of the United States of America.

Sadly, Mozilla didn’t cut on AI crap.

@nixCraft If I had to guess, they wanted a stake in the ground in case there were monetisation opportunities. There were none.

@nixCraft because they need the server to run IA
