I have fish set as the default command to run when my terminal emulator starts, but my system-wide default shell is bash and I always throw a #!/bin/sh or #!/bin/bash shebang at the top of my scripts either way.

With that setup, I hardly notice fish’s syntax differences. Are you using it like that, too?

Yeah, modern computers often feel like a scam. Obviously, some things are faster and obviously, we can calculate more complex problems.
But so often, programs are only optimized until they reach a level of “acceptable” pain. And especially with monopolistic, commercial software that level is close to infinity, because well, it’s acceptable so long as customers don’t switch to competitors.

Either way, the slowness that was acceptable twenty years ago is generally still acceptable today, so you get much of the same slowness despite being on a beefier PC.

I guess, those don’t work for hidden/minimized windows.

Perhaps worth considering a bspwm-like workflow. Rather than minimizing windows, you put them onto another workspace. Just absolves you from dealing with the whole concept of minimized windows…

Hatte letztens 'ne Gurke gekauft und in den Kühlschrank gepackt, dann 'ne Viertelstunde später entschieden, dass ich die zum Abendessen in die Pfanne haue. Da hat mich mein Kühlschrank bestimmt auch so angeschaut.

It’s still effectively Chrome under the hood…

It was so funny, too, because even back then, they had already set an end-of-life date for 2025.

Do you mean 36 = 18 there? Otherwise, I’m very confused. 😅

Yeah, when I found the meme template, it did say that, too, but I wasn’t sure if that information is actually helpful to someone reading alt text. Personally, I only know the guy from the memes. 😅

Managed to get around the top-corner to recover health and from confusion. Went back to them, got instantly confused again, but somehow one of my confused weapon hits randomly one-hit K.O.-ed the sling goblin. And then managed to hammer down Ijyb, too. 🎉

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk. 😎

…and apparently, the goblin also has a trident. 😅

For whatever reason, it doesn’t use it to poke me across the one-tile-gap, though.

Oh no, her wand isn’t running out and another goblin with a sling found the way… 🫠

Yeah, I tried it in my other comment, and at first it started with “I think, folks…” which was already a dead end, because any continuation I tried would eventually need a “they”. Kind of wild that something as basic as plural can fuck you up. 😅

Yeah, I figured, once I actually thought about it. 😅

I mean, yeah, I studied computer science. Presumably, I’ve been taught the majority of these at some point. I just absolutely fucking hate mathematical notation.

Due to your comment, I’m guessing, top-left is multiplication then, even though I was also taught in school to use × for multiplication.
Top-center might be logical AND? Top-right might be function composition? Center-left and center-right might be ranges, unless those dots indicate multiplication, then no fucking clue. Bottom left is set intersection. And one of these circles or crosses is probably the Cartesian product.

So, I mean, I do know some of this shit. In truth, I was just deriding mathematical notation with that meme, because well, “Set” is the only actual word in all that mathematical notation… 😵‍💫

Ich finde, sie sollten in wahrer Unicode-Manier verschiedene Flaggen je nach angefügten Farbwerten zulassen. So ein Uwu-Löwe mit Pride-Flag würde bestimmt Anklang finden. 🙃

I’m now imagining you going to the grocery store, pretending to be your twin, to get the employee discount. 🙃

I think, you usually post, if you got a thing to say. And thus you want to say that thing, not look for formulations all day long…

Bin gespannt. Schon klar, dass Pünktlichkeit und Zuverlässigkeit größere Probleme sind, aber mit Sauberkeit und Co. habe ich eigentlich kein Problem.

Mastodon instance where you can’t post the letter “e”: https://oulipo.social/public/local 🙃

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks! 🙂
