I see it as: mv is just renaming a file, in this case a directory file, with a different full name (path)

I learned the proper meaning of tar flags a long time ago, but then I accidentally saw a post somewhere describing “czf” and “xzf” as acronyms in german accent: “Create Ze File!” and “Xtract Ze File!” and now everytime I use tar in the simpler ways I hear in my head a german voice shouting these words as I type the flags.

That’s how I think about it too. I guess the original description was a bit vague, what they did to the americas. It includes both. First invasion, then immigration.

I could be wrong, but to me those words describe the initial phase. Once established as a society, the rest involves people moving into this society, which I would call immigration.

This can actually be harder than it looks, you have to get the angles right for the eyeballs to really touch. At least that’s how it was when I tried it.

It creates an effect where surrounding air is pulled with the stream due to the Bernoulli effect. It’s the same thing that pulls shower curtains in when you shower. If the fan is a bit inside the window, surrounding indoor air gets pulled into the stream, moving more air out in total.

The “x just means y” argument has its merits, but there are many words that “just mean” something, but after being used in a bad way now are considered offensive. “Retarded” just means “slowed down”, and “negro” just means “black”. So then the question becomes, who gets to decide if a word is offensive? People with dictionaries, or people who feel offended? Either way, I think society should be consistent.

I did the math for the saffron too, it would be (the equivalence of) $300 in Sweden.

thread as in threaded posts as opposed to other parts of the fediverse with another layout. it’s not about the instance Threads, but the type of fediverse service allowing a lemmy/kbin type of conversation.

I have come to appreciate Palatino more and more over the years. Especially at display sizes.

The difference, and the best part of the fediverse imho, is that if you’re not happy with someone elses rules you can become your own admin and set your own rules. The more we centralize power the further we go against that idea.

Things you can do in finland: tango, fight with knives, computer stuff.
