131·2 months agoJust curious: If you’re willing to use Discord, why not Google?
I don’t think these things are universal across software,
They are not.
but never with the options switch around
Life pro tip: always put the force flag first on any command line you write (that has such a flag), to ensure that it’s the first thing seen by everyone (including your future self) reading that command line.
Imo not really noob-user friendly.
In what way? It would make it entirely invisible that the archive file isn’t just a normal folder, it would be possible to use it just as if it were. What would be unfriendly about that?
The operating system could mount it as a virtual drive, then all its contents could be used directly just like any regular folder.

I settled with Debian because ‘apt-get dis-upgrade’, of course.
A friend showed me an early version of Debian, probably sometime around 1996, and it was immediately obvious that this was the way. It’s been Debian for me ever since.
This includes the Linux greybeards too.
I never switched to Windows, but switched directly from AmigaOS to Linux, in 1994.
You might find this project interesting:
As already mentioned several times, selfhosting a mail server is not recommended unless you’re particularly interested in hosting a mail server, but with that said, you might find this project interesting:
3·5 months agoI would really want to have a really good open source SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) app, with good secure key management and excellent transfer performance. So far, I haven’t found any such app.
“These features and experiences need to be trained on information that reflects the diverse cultures and languages of the European communities who will use them.”
No, they do not, these features and experiences don’t need to exist at all.
I don’t really see the big problem here?
The primary problem in this story is the lying. If there are Bluetooth earbuds in the box then it should say Bluetooth on the box.
However sometimes people don’t realize which community they are in and they just look at the title.
Guilty as charged. After reading the title it didn’t even cross my mind that it could possibly refer to anything other than mobile apps so I saw no reason whatsoever to look at what community it was posted in as the app I came to think of as a good recommendation is cross platform.
Yes, it is.
I’ve been running my own mail server for decades now (a quite odd hobby, I know) and that’s not to be recommended for anyone who doesn’t have a particular interest in e-mail. SMTP is from the early 1980s with roots in the 1970s and has had layer upon layer bolted on since then. It’s a fantastic mess.
When I finally learned about Pocket just a few years ago it surprised me greatly that I didn’t know about it before and now I use it daily:
In general, no. Most malware that runs its own process simply uses some name intended to make you not notice it. But it is possible, in Linux just as in every other operating system that ever existed, to imagine that some unusually sophisticated malware manages to exploit some unknown vulnerability to gain full control of the kernel and then all bets are off, then it would be able to do anything.
While I don’t know what exactly you mean by sysadmin, it sounds to me as if you’d be better at setting up (and maintaining) CI/CD than most normal developers and that’s something that’d be very valuable to lots of projects out there.
I have in my life met a number of people to whom you might want to explain that this was how they were supposed to behave.
