I am still deciphering my emotional response to, "Why have a Linux system when you could install Linux in Windows?" What are equivalents? "Why have plain pizza when you could have it with anchovies?" "Why use milk when you could have twice as much by adding water?" "Why catch a cold when you could just catch COVID?"

I'm a firm believer of Hanlon's Razor, but over a week, Facebook has flagged a post and a comment of mine, both about Mastodon (and including a link to http://joinmastodon.org)
TIL "never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanlon's_razor
First, I enjoyed the joke. Second, it should be noted that the Java-brand of OOP is not representative of true OOP (eg https://data-flair.training/blogs/is-java-an-object-oriented-language/). Reminds me, I still need to learn CLOS!

I'm telling you, w3m or any other text-based browser wins right here! The content we care about is usually text, forget about popups, ads, and subscription requests!

This is one of the major benefits I've enjoyed about #Clojure Garden #css for four years: easy nesting of the rules. Nice to see css proper may catch up. https://github.com/noprompt/garden

The new show had an incompatible tone with the original pilots, being firmly rooted in our reality like the movies at the time. In our history. But unlike those movies (X-Men, Sam Raimi's Spiderman, Hulk, Batman Begins, Hellboy, etc) Gregg Taylor doesn't seem to see cheesiness as conflicting with realism. Darkness with lightheartedness. Magic with pseudoscience.
And he got better production quality without professional support! And as much time to tell his story as he needed.
5/5 Fin.
great to have that all in one place. I can relate, I usually use archlinux docs even if im not on archlinux specifically because I know they will give me the command line way of doing things. Plus Archlinux is fairly vanilla.
good stuff. I appeciate the distinction of AWK vs SED, which I've been fuzzy on
