I was also going to link this. I started using zfs 10-ish years ago and used dedup when it came out, and it was really not worth it except for archiving a bunch of stuff I knew had gigs of duplicate data. Performance was so poor.

It says it’s a tautology because it’s a tautology.

docker handbrake has a web-ui, thanks to virtual frame buffer and vnc. It works just like the desktop version, because that’s what it is, but in a browser.

It’s probably rain clouds trapping heat from escaping into the atmosphere, and humid air equalizing the temp by sucking heat off of high heat capacity surfaces like rocks and cement, warming the air.

That’s just my guess though. I have no relevant scientific expertise.

I did not! Interesting feature.

Not powerful, but often useful, column -t aligns columns in all lines. EG

$ echo {a,bb,ccc}{5,10,9999,888} | xargs -n3
a5 a10 a9999
a888 bb5 bb10
bb9999 bb888 ccc5
ccc10 ccc9999 ccc888
$ echo {a,bb,ccc}{5,10,9999,888} | xargs -n3 | column -t
a5      a10      a9999
a888    bb5      bb10
bb9999  bb888    ccc5
ccc10   ccc9999  ccc888

I’ve switched from using dd to using pv to write disk images to removable media.

Don’t run killall on aix before reading the man page!

Great call out! I first used ftp about 30 years ago, and lftp has been my go to for about the last decade. I rarely need it anymore, but I still use it for quickly transferring files with my homebrew switch.

I love jq, but I wouldn’t call it “surprising simple” for anything but pretty-formatting json. It has a fairly steep learning curve for doing anything with all but the simplest operations on the simplest data structures.

Also, you can make yes return anything:

yes no

Aka the sphincternet.

Who needs grandma’s love and attention when an artificial surrogate can consume it and dump it all into an aggregated user profile of grandma instead? /s

Meanwhile, my late grandmother was the kind of woman who would notice the television distracting from a conversation, turn it off, and say “tv dominates the room.” I miss her a lot.

Plus AI can’t eat grandma’s peach cobbler a la mode.

TIL, thanks for sharing that.

Yes. Here’s a random listing on CL.

In the opposite end, what is the cheapest device that you could watch YT on? I’m thinking one of those retro game consoles, which are like $60, run Linux, and have WiFi.

We’ve been using the spray can to create our planned path, which helps navigate unfamiliar levels and find your way through complex areas.

He’s 8. He loves destruction, so this is a great game for him. The puzzles got to be a bit challenging after 5-10 levels, but there’s a sandbox mode that he loves goofing off in.

Also he loves that all the vehicles function.

Teardown is 50% off. My son and I have been having fun with it.
