Read that one right the second time

I don’t think I’ve found amazing things recently. Things worth using and things better than the alternative and things that are promising to maybe one day be great, yes.

But I’ll single out one little thing: dust. https://github.com/bootandy/dust

Dust is meant to give you an instant overview of which directories are using disk space without requiring sort or head. Dust will print a maximum of one ‘Did not have permissions message’.

Dust will list a slightly-less-than-the-terminal-height number of the biggest subdirectories or files and will smartly recurse down the tree to find the larger ones. There is no need for a ‘-d’ flag or a ‘-h’ flag. The largest subdirectories will be colored.

It’s like a killer combination of du and sort oneliners that actually shows me what I want to know: What’s the big stuff in this dir.

Depends on the machine and… maybe other things. I used to think that, too, but on my current machines I can step backwards just fine.

It’s probably a much more intensive operation requiring processing a lot of the file from before and throwing away current buffers or something.

I’ll mention organic maps and rimusic.

Tdk makes chips, really?

Could it cure their multiposting?

No. If they want to call it sue doo or sue dough, they should have written that. :)

I also pronounce Linus Linus.

I say zsh, s s h, and sudo. But I’m Finnish and we’re literal folk language wise.

You can pick any. I guess the way is to just pick one based on it’s description or users or package availability or size and then learn to use it. And or try another one when you figure out if it has problems. Sick with the one you like the most. Or write your own.

Yes. It’s a shame, but these things seem to happen. I’m just sorry for Al.

The classic term might be eccentric. But I don’t know if you have to be rich for that.

It could work better because a web browser is the most bloated useless bug ridden insecure creeping horror ever invented.

Although I suspect this is just a web browser with some extra chrome.

I watch a lot of things labelled horror in the (mostly vain) hope that there would be a good speculative angle about alternate reality.

Using capitals

Age does not bring wisdom. Often it merely changes simple stupidity into arrogant conceit. It’s only advantage, so far as I have been able to see, is that it spans change. A young person sees the world as a still picture, immutable. An old person has had his nose rubbed in changes and more changes and still more changes so many times that that he knows it is a moving picture, forever changing. He may not like it–probably doesn’t; I don’t–but he knows it’s so, and knowing is the first step in coping with it.

And soft lavatory paper.

Most Unix systems had it in CDE, 1993. Most also had it in whatever came before.

The first platform to implement multiple desktop display as a hardware feature was Amiga 1000, released in 1985.

The first implementation of virtual desktops for Unix was vtwm in 1990.

It had been the expected default for pretty much an entire decade. Also X often supported a different size viewport and desktop so the view would scroll. Not sure if anyone really liked using that.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

My first thought was some military gear as well. A scarf or travel utensils or bag or something. Actually even the gloves I got are probably over 20 years old.

Rescued pets cats be priceless, though keeping them fed and healthy and happy can cost a fair bit.
