I see why that’s an issue.

If your distro ships with the tool inxi, you can dump a lot of data about your system with inxi -Fazy. Folks might be better able to help you then. The -z flag filters sensitive information.

I just put a bunch of stuff on this pc and would rather not have to switch back to mint.

If you move that stuff to a partition that’s different from where root lives, switching operating systems shouldn’t be a problem. You can just mount the data partition on your new OS, if the need arises.

- God made us special.
- Nope, evolution.
- But we’re still better than animals! We can cooperate.
- Have you seen wolves?
- Well… we have emotions. Something no animal can ever have.
- Elephants mourn their dead.
- But, but, … we have a sense of “self”.
- Even crows recognize themselves in a mirror.
- Tools! What about tools! We are separated by them by our ingenuity.
- Boy do I have news for you.

I have a feeling that such a conversation could be had about LLMs either now or in the near-ish future.

it has come in clutch a few times

Massive disrespect for not learning a thing.

To answer the original question, even though @RedWeasel@lemmy.world’s advice really is superior:

All commands that can be executed via your shell must live in your $PATH or their subdirectories. You could enumerate all files in there, filter by being executable, and run them with the --help argument.

You can then filter these commands by their exit code. If --help is a recognized flag, the exit code should be 0. Otherwise it should be something else. (Running every command blindly might be a bad idea though.)

Without the Google Search deal, Firefox will have less resources to build a competent browser.

Firefox has neglected their browser for years, pursuing vanity features like pocket instead of implementing standards.

My initial guess was that sudo would eat up the echo’d foo as the password. Maybe sudo works differently when invoked via zsh?

Can’t reproduce.

16:22:48:~/tmp$ echo foo | sudo tee newfile
[sudo] Passwort für bleistift2:         
foo

16:23:02:~/tmp$ ls -l newfile
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4 Feb 23 16:22 newfile

Unsubstantiated claim: Any set of rules that aim at distributing money according to some merit can be exploited in a way that those who get the most money are not those providing the most value.

Or less formally: Any game can be cheesed.

The last comment has this:

Maybe start rendering pages right?

maybe everyone here is just a rude little shit.

Or maybe you’re just a snowflake that can’t handle criticism.

Is this not rude:

I checked the code and I’m appalled. There are more BLOBs than source code

No. The commenter is voicing their own feelings and explains why they have them. There is neither blaming nor rudeness here.

And this:

I understand that removing BLOBs isn’t a priority over new and shiny features. But due to recent events, this should be rethought.

It would have been nice if you had explained why you think this is rude. The author expresses understanding that the maintainers’ priorities don’t align with the author’s. This seems to be an uncontroversial statement to me.

Then the author explains (I agree, it’s more a hint than an explanation) why they think the priorities should be changed. In my view their argument is sound. Again, there is no blaming or rudeness here.

They should have opened with a complement

I assume you mean “compliment”.

I’ve often heard of the “sandwich technique” – start with a compliment, then voice criticism, end with another positive thing. I find this is an appropriate procedure when voicing open feedback, that is, good things and bad things. However, this is a Github issue. Its whole point is to point out a perceived problem, not to give the maintainers a pat on the back or thank them.

I cannot fathom what in this issue description gives rise to your concern. It’s worded very calmly, clearly explaining why the author thinks these BLOBs shouldn’t be there, expressing an understanding that it’s not a top priority and even closing with a thank you.

A text editor that doesn’t assume that the keys on my keyboard are in the same order as yours.

Aww. I confused “communities” for “instances” when I read the title. Thanks for pointing it out.

Your data quality is questionable. You list only 2 communities for feddit.org. Lemmy Explorer has 148. I doubt that they’re all ‘suspicious’. And if they are, then that flag is itself suspicious.

Please avoid any and all situations in which you might have the chance of handling any kind of categorized data, for the sake of all of us.
