This is the way.

Do you miss fish at all?

I just made my own server right when Discord came out and invited my friends. Very curated, only for us. I am also the lord of it, which is a bonus lol.

ADDICTION MF

It should definitely not-even-kidding be completely illegal!

You made a full transition? Or just when you are working with the data and configs?

In fish, man export:

export is a function included for compatibility with POSIX shells. In general, the set <> builtin should be used instead. When called without arguments, export prints a list of currently-exported variables, like set -x.

So it’s not really a proper built-in command, but a wrapper around set. But for all intents and purposes… 👍

fish is also a much nicer language to write scripts in than bash

I rewrote my entire ~/.local/bin repo of scripts from bash to fish and they are probably 50% shorter on average, actually understandable after not reading them for 6 months so highly maintainable, and actually fun to write in comparison. Argument parsing is also such a breeze.

I love it. Been using it a few years now and I’ll never use a Bourne style shell again, interactively. Nushell is the only other type of shell I’ve my eyes on, but that seems more useful if I’m in a position where I need to process a lot of data like logs or something.

Sooo again, just go with Arch. 👍 It ain’t that hard, and very worth it. An install of Arch can survive for decades.

Kay. Well, you do you. 👍

Yeah that was never on the table, you’re all good. Modern smart TVs post 2015 shouldn’t need anything extra IMO.

Ah okay! No I have μBlock with untouched settings, so that’s probably not enabled in that case. Thanks for the tip!

Now all that’s left is to try and fix that artificial 5s delay on YouTube which is pretty freaking annoying and shitty by YouTube.

I’m not looking for tips on this, I know how to circumvent these things if it’s possible. It’s a matter of principle.

lol, Firefox isn’t a “normal” browser?

Either way, sites can get around that. But do tell, which browser do you use? w3m, elinks, lynx? One of the other ones here?

Clicked the cookie link, done.

You clicked Accept or Don’t accept?

Firefox reader view worked well here.

I use Firefox, and while that is a good trick I have used and will surely use again, a lot of the time it’s a matter of principle for me.

If I can’t read the article in the normal way because they refuse to let me because I pick one of the choices they give me, then I will not partake in their content ever again.

Funny you should mention Manjaro out of all distros, because I hear a lot of people recommend against using Manjaro for various reasons.

I don’t recommend using a distribution that doesn’t have control over its repositories.

Strong insinuation here. What do you specifically mean has happened when you are insinuating that Arch doesn’t have control over its repositories?

Thanks so much!

I have μBlock Origin but that doesn’t take away the cookie dialog covering the page. Do you have some extra setting in μBlock or some other ad blocker?

I also learned from TV, mainly Friends, Scrubs, Family Guy, and similar, with and without subtitles. Then had a gf/wife for twelve years who was native English speaking from across the pond.

I’m good with math and music, and such people tend to also pick up languages easily, or so I’ve understood. I would say I speak and write at a native level though thanks to being with that woman for so many years and communicating with her in English, and doing daily communication online in English for decades now.

Also having a curiosity where I look up words I don’t know, or when I see new words. And I’m interested in a lot of fields where there’s a lot of advanced lingo which also helps. People I listen to are well spoken and good with words, which inspires me.

So I guess all these things combined made me quite proficient. 🤷‍♂️

I literally couldn’t break out of the cookie consent loop. I had to leave without being able to read the article. Nice site bruh, will never visit again…
