Everything is enshittification. And you better like GNU/Linux, or else…

At first I read SIMD bucks and I thought they must take optimizing code seriously.

I think you guessed right. It could be phrased more clearly but I think they were just pointing out that since your comment is partially censored and your instance is known for word filter censoring, in their opinion your instance is not suitable for commenting properly. Maybe they wanted to inform you in case you didn’t notice or it was just a dig at lemmy.ml.

It’s not good for readability when random parts of text gets removed. I’m not familiar with the topic of this thread so I can’t deduce what Raremoved even means.

I think it’s just that raremoved part. Which comment didn’t make sense?

Someone commented on my post about Devil World that what I experienced was Tetris effect. When I was scrolling vertically on my phone I would occasionally experience sideways scrolling similar to the game mechanic even though there certainly wasn’t any sideways scrolling happening.

Another one was when I was playing Portal. Traveling via portals became my usual method to move around in every dream I had those days.

I think he meant having the 3,5 mm jack in a phone.

Maybe their necklaces and earrings don’t adhere to OSHA regulations. I don’t know. Everyone has to use their own judgement when posting and I think it’s better to mark NSFW when in doubt, but there seems to be at least two different ways people use NSFW feature so sometimes the choice of using an NSFW tag might not make sense.

Sii-Sii la Chinese ^_

Why is this downvoted? They’re similar words and could be mixed up. Apparently it’s silicone.

You mean collage? I agree. I think your suggestion would work best if it was also made to look like an obvious collage. If it was accurately photoshopped to look like the penguins were actually there it would look silly.

I played it occasionally but, as you said, it wasn’t very interesting game for young children. I guess it was interesting only subconsciously (the vivid dreams I mentioned in the other comment). Maybe it would have been fun game if I were an adult at the time.

We didn’t really have arcade in our town but there were some coin-operated games around. I think it wasn’t very long period of time they had Polybius but I remember playing it occasionally during that time. I was quite young so I didn’t fully understand the gameplay and can’t really recall any elements of it anymore. Only thing I do remember is I used to have vivid dreams about it when I hadn’t played it for a while. That sort of made me interested to play it again every once in a while. Though I must have been terrible at that game so I don’t know why I even tried it that many times.

I didn’t really thought about it when they had changed the machine to different one. I would rather play the Street Fighter II or whatever they had put there instead because it was much easier game to understand. There have been occasional dreams I’ve had much later in my life about this game but other than that I don’t really think about it. Sometimes after having that kind of vivid dream I do think for a while that it would be nice to give it a try again but I don’t know if they have the game anywhere or if it’s possible to emulate via MAME.

Would you agree that man page with good example section of common use cases would better serve the purpose or do you think there has to be separate tool to show only a short summary of the manual?

I don’t understand why people think this is such a useful thing. Sure it has some good summaries but you can’t find all info there whereas man pages should have everything. It’s also good that tldr has examples but I think it’s something man should more often have too. So why would people rather use this than man?

For example I often forget the order of pattern and file in grep. I can look it up easily in both man and tldr. I also forget what was the short option for recursion. Was it -r, -R or either or something else entirely? I can easily do a search on my pager to find the option in man but there’s only long option available in tldr. That’s Too Long Don’t Want to Type.

I like the Impact font one the best. Makes it more old school. Someone should make a motivational poster of this because we clearly don’t have enough of this meme.

Apparently posting a very old meme that is funny because it’s not funny. Also making a reference to something not many people know about, moaning about learning to use new software being waste of time (I don’t understand what was the issue. Maybe I was off-topic), and having an opinion that Apple is any good.

Not sure what you are seeing but I thought it was an empty reply from Mastodon. Then I opened it in browser and there’s actually a picture attached.

But in many cases Windows is pre-installed so it doesn’t matter if installing Windows is equally hard. People don’t have to install Windows in order to use it. In order to get normal people to use Linux there should be similarly no barrier to entry. I’ve seen companies selling used laptops with Linux distro of choice pre-installed. Something like that could work.

A ‘pager’ is a utility that takes a markup text (say, Roff) and displays that text, formatted, in the terminal. The first pager was nroff(1) for the aforementioned Roff, and you may still find nroff(1) on UNIX-based systems.

Wouldn’t it be less or more (or most) that is the pager part and roff being the part that does formatting for terminal. As far as I understand roff does the runoff of the text file. It formats the text properly and inserts all the necessary escape codes for terminal. Then that can be piped to pager which shows the text page by page.

Looks like an interesting project. Didn’t try it but looked into the source code and I think there was not really any keybindings similar to less. I suggest adding at least g, G, C-f and C-b.

But would it be possible for this project to utilize external pager? That would make the development easier.
