Fuck yeah I did, but only if I pull up to a McMansion with a larger order and get no tip.

Section 8 no tip? I get it.

McMansion large tip? Thanks have a nice night.

McMansion no tip? I’ll remember you and shake your soda next time. Probably stop at the store for snacks and a pack of heaters on the way too.

Idfc how much you order or if you’re 1 or 15 people, or anything else like that, but rich stingy cunts get judged.

(Also if you order and immediately hop in the shower making me stand there knocking for 5min when I show up, I’m mad and think you’re dumb. Just shower after you eat or before you call ffs, I have two other runs in the car getting cold because you thought you were slick.)

Nope! It’s a third, different cylinder.

(A cannon for anyone unfamiliar)

I would because I’m a Red Dwarf fan if these Smegheads didn’t make it so expensive.

The only thing I can think is because

A) Nostalgia farming worked really well for them in the 80s/90s, and they are unable to realize now is different

B) They probably are making money on these unfortunately (though not as much as they want), and it is likely because a known and trusted IP is easier to sell than a fresh untrusted idea that could flop worse. The fracturization of the industry oddly doesn’t help (like, back in the day everyone was watching the same things at the same time, now with 30k different streaming services it’s almost impossible to put up the same numbers as back then).

That said, I still hate it lmao.

Of course, afaik almost no billionaire’s money is liquid either, it’s in properties and businesses and shit.

Like I’m sure bezos has plenty liquid, but most of his billions is just a valuation of amazon/aws/whatever other shit he owns.

Like, if we wanted to take all his money we’d have to completely liquidate amazon and aws, and his house etc, selling the assets off to whoever can afford it, it’s not just breaking into his Scrooge McDuck vault full gold coins.

Not that it’s impossible, it just seems that many people don’t realize this and think it is just the Scrooge McDuck vault.

Another remake. Yay.

When will it end? I won’t even waste the SSD space pirating these cash grabs.

Tbf, I don’t read unames, and my app shows the pronouns in line with and the same color as the unames, so I don’t read those either.

Literally no clue who I’m even responding to right now. Doesn’t really matter who it is either, my response would be the same regardless of your race/gender/whatever else.

The one exception is whenever I see something profoundly stupid I will sometimes check the uname and go “ah yes cowbee again how predictable” but that’s just pure entertainment and learning who here not to waste energy on, most comments are just comments and don’t warrant that level of self preservation.

Used the terminal yesterday to search my piracy drive full of movies and shit in a directory structure, find any duplicate files by size/md5, and then it piped the results into my terminal editor of choice where I commented out the lines corresponding to files to delete, then it deleted them for me. Saved a couple hundred gb, and idk how to do it through a gui (besides the insurmountable task of clicking through all those folders.)

Not only that, but turned out I had a bunch of dups in my image folder too that I wasn’t prepared to deal with right then, so in vim I just :/folder and n n n n repeatedly to get to the next relevant entries, made it even faster.

Took maybe 5min (not counting wait time, I ran it, made dinner, and came back and it was ready for me.)

Now, I’m going to peek at that forgotten picture folder in the GUI because I have NO idea what’s going on there and it’ll be helpful for me to get eyes on it instead of reading filenames, so I do use that too, for me it isn’t all or nothing, it’s both, some things are just better CLI and some are actually better GUI, and some can be either depending on how I feel today.

GUI: Oh shit I still use a lot of keyboard shortcuts.

Friend: Just download the Ghostbusters app and…

Me: This requires GSM, has 27 trackers, and needs all the permissions…

Friend: …so?

Me: Then lemme use your phone for it, I’ll pay you back in cash.

Speaking of fires, what time does that store close and the people leave?

More than one way to skin a building.

You cannot stop me, that’s false imprisonment and you have no authority in this jurisdiction. I will be leaving, or I will be pressing charges. Your choice. That’s not even close to enough for reasonable suspicion (which is debatably actionable anyway in most circumstances).

Thanks, I’ll try these out!

Hey I have a quick question I haven’t been able to find the answer to regarding nnn, if you don’t mind.

So, I have nnn and the plugins set up as normal, however I need to run some of those plugins as root. If I sudo nnn, my plugins don’t transfer, so I put the plugin files in root’s .config and the line in root’s .bashrc, but I can’t figure out how to do the source ~/.bashrc command part for root’s .bashrc.

If I source /root/.bashrc it says permission denied, if I run it with sudo it says sudo: source: command not found.

You wouldn’t happen to have been down this road before, would you?

Thanks, just gave it a quick checking out, think I’ll quite like it when I figure out how to actually use it lol.

Tbf, whenever there’s a private tool like graphene, tor, tails, whonix, mullvad, matrix, jabber, pgp, etc?

Yes, criminals will use it, because of course they don’t want to get caught for crimes just as much as we don’t want to be tracked in general (maybe more, because crimes lol).

But also, criminals use roads, trains, busses, the USPS and private mail carriers, normal phones including SMS and calls, facetime, email, they drink water and eat food, on and on.

“Criminals use it” is a fucking stupid reason to ban anything, in fact it’s a good reason we should adopt it too in terms of privacy, because if it works for them doing way worse than I am, then it ought to work just fine for me too. Besides over half of those criminals are just using WHM or whatever is the go to these days, define “criminals.”

I find sometimes the gui takes a while to manipulate say 300 folders. Like if I want to move all the mp4 files from a folder structure into another directory but leave everything else you can use something like

find /path/to/piracy/directory/ -name '*.mp4' -exec cp -r {} /path/to/piracy/storage/ \;

And it’ll send em on over.

And I didn’t remember that command, I had it in a script, so to find it to post here I just typed:

cat ~/Documents/scripts/scriptname/

And hit enter, and it gave me the info in the file. Tbh it was even easier than that, with tab completion I just had to type:

cat Doc[tab]/sc[tab]/sc[tab]

But back to the piracy, then to delete everything left over from that first script (like .nfo files) just

cd ~/piracy/directory/
rm -r *
exit

And will remove everything instantly.

To make it easier you can make a script with the first command, even chain it with the same for avi etc, and you could probably have it auto clean the source directory afterwards, but I like to do that manually. You can also (in most piracy programs) tell it to run a script on complete, so you could have that all automated by that process (if you don’t store them in an external drive like me.) And you can get way fancier with it too, I’m very much still learning, there’s way more that can be done pretty easily. I do still use the GUI sometimes too though and for some stuff it is easier, it’s definitely not an all or nothing thing, both is better!

Also I’m totally not a pirate that was just an example…cough cough.

I’m open to it, if you had to pick one to try first out of all tui file managers, which would it be and why?

Bonus points for “it makes batch renaming and other file ops way easier!”

Moving files, deleting files, text editing, converting files, stuff like btop, a lot really.

When I started I watched a few “linux cli tutorial” and “bash basics” or “bash for beginners” type videos on youtube and followed along in my terminal like a class, pausing when needed. That’s all it took for me to be off to the races learning more because of just how easy it is to do a lot of stuff, and I still learn more all the time.

Couple tips (really some of this applies regardless of cli or gui):

• Keep offsite back-ups, just in case. Worst case scenario you reinstall and replace your files.

• Be careful with sudo but otherwise you’ll be fine. That’s not to say don’t use sudo just be mindful.

• Learn just the basics at first and then learn more as you go and get more comfortable, I kinda use the unix philosophy for it here and only learn it if I need it, most often.

• You can save semi-commonly used commands to a txt file and reference it later, really helps for stuff you only use every now and again. There’s also the history command and ctrl+r but I still find the file useful.

It really isn’t as hard as it had looked before I started, and I use it constantly now.
