You are assuming here that I know what I want. What if there is no obviously correct answer, and even in the Everett branch that generates the optimal content for the file I’ll still think it can be improved and tell it to destroy the universe?
What if there is no correct answer?
I just use this:
#!/bin/bash
keep_generating=1
while [[ $keep_generating == 1 ]]; do
dd if=/dev/random of=$1 bs=1 count=$2 status=none
echo Contents of $1 are:
cat $1
echo
read -p "Try generating again? " -s -n1 answer
while true; do
case $answer in
[Yy] )
echo
break
;;
[Nn] )
keep_generating=0
break
;;
*)
esac
read -s -n1 answer
done
done
Why parse the HTML manually when sed
is a standard utility and you can use it to parse it with regex?
Nope. That’s an old meme, that still checks out. There is still hope for Windows 12.
Windows uses AI to determine what’s best for you. GNOME just decides it generally in advance.
What do you mean by “improving”? This alarming warning appears because Firefox requires permissions. Let us look at the permissions listed there:
App permissions should not be about “this app cannot be trusted because it asks for scary scary permissions”. They should be about “take a look at the list of permissions the app requests and determine whether or not it make sense for such an app to need such permissions”.
Nearly every app should have a warning
No. If you put a warning on every app (except for the most trivial ones that don’t actually do anything useful) then the warnings mean nothing. The become something more than ass-covering legal(ish) BS.
Do we… want to be in the know?
What if Windows decided to update after you finished checking the equipment? I mean, they do use AI to determine the worst time for an update…
For extra irony, sell him an NFT to the source code.
I think the problem with OOP is something you can see whenever legislation is linked with prestige (it happens a lot in real life). The number of good possible rules is quite limited, and the number of people who want to make a name for themselves by championing them seems to be infinite. If you can’t find a good rule to claim as your own, you have to pick a bad rule and try to gaslight people into thinking it’s a necessary and beneficial. Enough people do that, and we end up with modern OOP.
Which one should have taken the other to kourt?
If you use Edge than you probably use Windows, which means that Microsoft can already mine your data. I guess it’s better to have your data mined by only Microsoft than to have it mined by both Microsoft and Google?
I wanted more workspaces, so I decided that ~
is 0, -
is 11, =
is 12 and backspace is 13.
That’s nice. I’ve later googled it and found out that I could have added 3
to the end of the grub command to make it boot in runlevel 3 which does not trigger the GUI, but I guess your way could also bypass boot issues that prevent even non-gui boot.
I also see that there is runlevel 1, which is kind of an emergency mode, so maybe that would be the best thing to use?
As long as I can get into the terminal I can fix the GUI. What really sucks is when it something that runs in the DM init sequence was using Python but a Python upgrade changed the import path and no it keeps restarting and I need to boot from a USB to disable that service so I can log into something and properly fix it.
What happened to Dexter?
