That's why even though I like the weird and esoteric stickers you see here, I myself prefer the `unixstickers` style I think you're talking about. Debian, Arch, GNU, Python, bash, Ruby, Git,…

You mean the `Include` directive, right? Not "load"...but I guess that's just shorthand for the concept. So you split your main ~/.ssh/config file into smaller, reusable files…

At this point, don't AI agents help a lot with this and diminish the need for the workflow you're describing?

I almost didn't click through to the catalog, but boy am I glad I did! Some of those drawings are so aesthetically pleasing.

Where can you buy uppercase PYREX today in America?

Omarchy is a very fast moving target at this point. I have every expectation that in the near future, they'll develop a package manager. I agree that Omarchy is not yet a "real distribution&…

If you seriously think DHH and collaborators are "alt-right", you haven't met many alt-right people.

I've installed and used vanilla Arch from scratch on at least three different machines, but this time around I wanted Arch on a ThinkPad but didn't want to spend a few hours configuring and …

That commentary proves that the guy doesn't get it or is being a willfully obtuse hater. One of the big reasons people have been gravitating toward Omarchy is because they don't want to spen…

OK, I have to admit I cracked up and lost it at "Dude's got the vibe of a cat." That's such a great line with such rich, pointed meaning packed into only a few words.

Launch NetNewsWire and don’t close it until the sync is complete. If you close it before the sync is complete, you will have to start all over again Yeah, that's not going to be a workable solu…

NetNewsWire will choke out on you if you have a large number of feeds, because of the way it is designed.

It's called the "Rule of Textuality", a component of which is: "Store data in flat text files." This principle recognizes that text files are human-readable, easily editable w…

Yes, I know. I was responding to the grandparent, not you. I get it.

You don't need to drop $300+ on a Tom Bihn to have a totally functional backpack with a laptop sleeve, for cryin' out loud. So many backpacks have it, and it's not a premium feature.

Ha! I used to be a land surveyor before I was an engineer. I had one of those vests and yes, I did put a laptop in there a few times during lunch breaks when I didn't want to leave the laptop in …

Good description of what Omarchy really is. It's for two groups of people: 1/ (biggest group by far) People who are new to Linux on the desktop and, to a lesser extent, want to get out of th…

Way, way better than Ubuntu. And it adheres to *NIX philosophy by making all the config editable via text files.

You're talking like Oxford is some school for shitdogs now A rather crude way to express it. But I don't think that pointing out that Oxbridge isn't always a first choice implies, um,…

So PYREX denotes the Corning brand, and pyrex the imitation of the original (that explodes in ovens)?
comment
Has anyone written a better explainer about the difference? Corning's entry isn't that helpful. Particularly interested in the safety issues and practicality in terms of kitchen use. Also, I…

They should just change it back to Mocha.

They should just revert the name to Mocha.

I have to admit, when I discovered this I was a bit disappointed. For a long time I thought it was just a great brand name somebody came up with instead of the founder's last name.
comment
For a sec I thought the same thing. Anyway, "Leatherman" is a totally great brand name. So good, I wish I'd thought of it first.
