So this was my biggest complaint when I started using it too. People will tell you that you don’t need a command prompt, and while they’re technically right,in practice you’re going to need to use it eventually.
I was a windows power user before I got into Linux and of course I ended up needing to spend more and more time in the terminal so the learning curve for me was very frustrating at times.
Fast forward a couple of years and I know bash, I learned more about how computers and operating systems works in those two years than I did in 30ish years before becoming a Linux guy, and while I still think a gui is better for some things, having to use windows at all pisses me off instantly and I feel handicapped without access to a command prompt. I mean, windows has powershell, but I don’t know it. And also the syntax is way more confusing to me than the eldritch syntax of bash (except arrays. Bash arrays are just fucked).
I’m not naive enough to think that everyone is willing or capable of taking the same journey I did, or that you can use Linux to the same extent you can as windows without opening up the terminal, but I am grateful every day I put the time and effort into learning Linux, and I fucking love it.
I’m not sure why you hate Linux but while it took me a long while to get really comfortable with the terminal I eventually fell in love with it. I love Linux so much
Stupid fucking whorediot foes stupid fucking whorediot stuff, more news at 7.
I mean. The way chicken worked before this shit in the us was already appalling . Read about fecal soup.
The movie is so fucking dumb. I absolutely love the avatar movies in 3d at the theatre but there’s zero reason to ever watch it at home. The movie really exists as a way to hold together wildly ambitious visual art
So I am in no position to help you but I do have a very strange and hypothetical (ish) question:
How feasible would it be to hack a monitors firmware and use it to send and receive data, assuming that the data being sent is encoded on, say, the green color channel of said monitor and you had an sdr or some specially configured device set up somewhere to help make this very specific and bizarre idea work?
So. You’ll hear no argument from me on how banal the thing is. The setting, the plot, the characters. None of it does anything particularly engaging.
But holy fucking shit this movie and the one before it were breathtaking visual spectacles that I’ve not seen before or since.
Shopping at home hardware is such a weird experience. You can ask questions and the people working there actually know the answers to the questions and can point you in the right direction.
It’s weird to interact with someone that isn’t a fucking troglodyte that knows nothing about the products they’re selling.
Tangentially related: setting up hammocks in my living room was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. It’s so comfortable.
Dude. I will never buy anything from and ad You fucks have been trying for 30+ years and not once had it worked.
Know what I would pay you for? A functional fucking search engine you fucking dirty myopic shit cabbages.
Fuck the whole fucking lot of you
But hasn’t history proven that Marx’s dream of an egalitarian utopia is unattainable, inevitably resulting in a proletariat that’s more oppressive than the bourgeoise it vilifies?
My players once used charisma and magic to basically trick/enslave some generic box to participate in everything for THE WHOLE CAMPAIGN. I kept trying to kill him and when that didn’t work I tried to make them feel bad about the situation because he had a family at home that had no idea where he was and when I finally managed to kill him they just brought him back from the dead. He was a level 4 night and they were level 18 when the campaign ended
Well I learned something about busybox today.
Also wanted to add that this happens when you cat binary. Not that I’ve ever done that of course.
