Some might argue it requires a terminal level of brain worms to understand what is being said with rule 8. But I for one find beauty in this exactly level and flavor of petty, and I come to the fediverse for it.
One could argue if all she increases is distance away from OP, then there is a form of vectorized movement in polar coordinates with OP at 0 and his GF moving in the direction of maximizing the space between them 🤔
That has been my method, I wondered if there was something better. But if I stumbled into the answer, that works too!
What high seas have good sources for music these days? I feel like a lot of music is harder to come by on the trackers I’ve searched. Occasionally I can find a particular album but is the more niche stuff invite trackers only?
Oh my mistake, I didn’t mean to demean at all. Yeah I think even in your example there are baked in knowledge we’ve picked up that we don’t realize, and that a very likely response from fully fresh eyes would seeing the synopsis is “oh this isn’t for me.”
I use the neckbeard to destroy the neckbeard
Agreed! You can look elsewhere, and that’s how I, and I think many other folks, learned. The OP was talking about the manuals though, specifically mentioning /usr/bin
. So to restate my point is not to say it’s impossible to learn linux, but that man pages are weird and bad place to push folks looking to learn.
Agreed, and I think a larger part of it is that most folks pick it up based on context after long enough, so it’s rarely explained. The square brackets are optional arguments. So I could use ssh 192.168.1.1
or ssh postimo@192.168.1.1
with the first asking for the account after I connect, and the second just asking for the password. You can see how the computer took it in the response you got. hostname ]192.168.1.1
being it saw the and assumed everything after was the hostname and included the ]
It’s worth noting that you can’t just connect to a random machine like this, they need to also be running an ssh server. But I wouldn’t expect you to know that without reading a great deal more of the documentation 🫠
The idea that manuals in linux are a good way to learn and understand new software is peak linux neckbeard bs, and I will die on this hill. I congratulate OP on the exact type of autism that lets them feel this is an effective and useful method for learning new software, but if there is desire to have a greater adoption of linux maybe its bad to be snarky at folks for not instantly understand the terminal based documentation conventions of some dudes in the 70s. Maybe an alphabetical* list of all possible options is okay for referencing or searching, but is objectively insane way to learn or understand a problem.
Anything ever come of this creep and his “favorite magic tricks” usb drive?
