  • Ok I gotta say just we’ve had a lot of sharing of basically this exact same article repeatedly now and just spamming everything on racingnews365 or motorsportsweek doesn’t help with engagement on our relatively small community. OP: I appreciate you sharing here, but can you just choose one or two links to share each day and not just rapid firing every article all at once, and maybe try to focus on interesting and insightful articles to share and not literal repeats of something that has already been shared or sensationalist recaps of the race? You’re kinda acting like a bot and I think the amount of engagement you’re getting on your posts speaks for itself considering there are thousands of subscribers here.










  • Right I love that comic! But I think the joke there is the expectation that a unix user would be able to do something as simple as opening a .tar.gz file, something that’s a much more common experience among nix users, but truth is many experienced users would still need to look up the exact syntax (me included). This meme is more like “look at how absurd of a command you can use in bash; can you tell the difference?” I dunno just doesn’t hit the same to me. Appreciate you sharing that xkcd though.



  • How the hell are you suggesting that a single group of 10,000 to 100,000 people can “use their manpower in one day to remove everyone close to Trump”?? Are you saying that the January insurrections were a good idea? The tough part you’re not considering is that to preserve (what’s left) of democracy we need to continue abiding by its principles as frustrating as it might sound. We need democracy intact after this is all over. One could almost infer that your comment seeks to invite violence.


  • That’s fair! I’ve always seen this community as an environment for advocating Linux use to Lemmings and much of the time the memes are comparative in nature to other options (ex the current to meme in this community about vendor lock in) so I’m just injecting my own historical view about this community. If it’s not comparative; then why is it really that funny? In that case it just reads like an exam in a CIS final.


  • I could imagine a command like this being used as part of a CI/CD script doing static analysis in a virtualized environment where the build is running in a *nix container. There’s more maintainable options as well (ie easier for an entire team of developers to understand / lower ‘bus factor’).

    Lol someone is so mad about this they’re going around downvoting all my replies. Guess that’s easier than coming up with a thoughtful reply and actually conversing but whatever you do you boo



  • I some beef with this meme in that there really isn’t a way to simply do this in windows. If anything, it demonstrates the upper level of capability and function using a cli shell. People who are looking for a windows replacement would never need to understand this command or even use a pipe / regex as they were unlikely to have been doing this kind of thing with windows anyway.
