It’s such a beautiful place, but it’s cursed with such ugly and incompetent politics. I’m hoping the maps get redrawn here so we can get some less shitty people in power.

Just a sweaty nerd interested in software, home automation, emotional issues, and polite discourse about all of the above.

My state always makes the news for the most fucked up shit.


Oh, I use vim, I don’t run an OS that can run Notepad++ natively. I meant using HEREDOCs as the responding anon suggested. I’ve absolutely done that on systems that lack a text editor.


It’s like this meme was made for me. GET OUT OF MY HEAD, ANON.


Reolink seems pretty good.


If you want extreme flexibility, use Arch Linux, since it makes it trivial to swap out which window manager you’re using. It sounds like you’re familiar with Linux at this point, so you probably have the requisite knowledge to give Arch a spin.
Niri is supposed to be a pretty interesting WM if you’re looking for something new. I’d be interested to hear why i3 was too much, since I found it to be pretty smooth to pick up.


Lethal Company is a fantastic game imo.


As someone posted elsewhere, this is an ultralight aircraft and is therefore forbidden from flying over populated areas.

Yet another new account that shows up, posts 2 comics, and then auto-deletes.
I totally feel you. Hopefully this works for you. Barring that, I hope you and your partners are able to reach an accomodation on this. You sound really frustrated and defeated here, so hopefully they can help you, or work with you on a different solution.
Hopefully it helps! Killing them is not an option for me or my partner, so we did a fair bit of research. We found a lovely little wooded stream to drop the mice off at, and we made sure to sprinkle some good mouse food around the area before we let them out (since their survival rate will be quite low without some kind of help).
You need to take them a fair distance away. The recommendations I’ve seen are to take them at least 3 kilometers (~2 miles) away.


Yeah, I was being pretty thick earlier today. Oopsie!


It was obvious and I was being a bit of a dummy this morning. Mea culpa.


If you want a free and massive performance optimization, remove the cat:
fastWikiLookup() { grep "$@" ~/wikipedia.txt }
Reading and piping 156 GB of data to another process every time you want to look something up is a somewhat nontrivial action. Grep can directly read the file, which should result in a pretty damn good speed up.
As someone else linked, it’s called that because the Colt Single Action Army revolver was nicknamed as such. Colt’s slogan was some variation of this:
God created men equal, Col. Colt made them equal…
If equality is peace, then anything to enforce that would be a “peace maker.” I uh, don’t necessarily agree with that sentiment, but it was popular in the American West for a long ass time.


It’s getting encoded. % is a special character in URIs. Let me try posting it inside of back ticks, as well as triple back ticks:

I’ve noticed that there’s a plague of threadiverse clients which improperly escape/encode URIs. It’s most evident with how they mangle parenthesis in Wikipedia article titles.


The Utah state government is especially incompetent when matters get overly political, so I give this a nonzero chance of succeeding.

According to Wikipedia, it’s known in modern times as mycobacterial cervical lymphadenitis.
As for what lymphadenitis is?
The Wikipedia article for king’s disease has a picture if you’re curious, although it’s a bit gross.
