Now I could. A few minutes ago I posted one, and it went to the void. I can’t delete, though. I get a lovely 403.
Can I create a post?
@bender@twtxt.net Ahh I see hmmm I don’t know this either 🤣
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I might give it a shot. 😃
Skimming through the manual: I had no idea that keeping the “up” cursor pressed actually slows you down at some point. 🤦
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I use Alt+.
all the time, it’s great. 👌
FWIW, another thing I often use is !!
to recall the entire previous command line:
$ find -iname '*foo*'
./This is a foo file.txt
$ cat "$(!!)"
cat "$(find -iname '*foo*')"
This is just a test.
Yep!
Or:
$ ls -al subdir
ls: cannot open directory 'subdir': Permission denied
$ sudo !!
sudo ls -al subdir

@thecanine@twtxt.net With the teeth this looks like a vampire dog. :-D And I don’t get the reference either.
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Oh, that’s great! I haven’t heard about any of them before either. There’s also a caveat though, that I ran right into the very first time I tried this in zsh:
$ ls > /dev/null
$ echo $_
--color=tty
Yeah, exactly what you think:
$ which ls
ls: aliased to ls --color=tty
Alt+.
is going to be my favorite one! In the above, it would also give me /dev/null
, which might be probably more what I would expect.
@prologic@twtxt.net no, good man. Follow the link, follow eet! :-)
@movq@www.uninformativ.de omg yeah! this one looks cute too (i’m weak to anything tux related!) but the commercial release has so much unpolished charm i love it! btw it’s on [internet archive(https://archive.org/details/TuxRacerCD) if you wanna download & play it :]
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I like the animations in your version much better than the ones from ExtremeTuxRacer. 😊 And there’s no little dance at the end of a race!
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com You mean Control R?

@bender@twtxt.net I SANG ALONG IN MY HEAD LMAOOO
I also just noticed that the performance issue doesn’t affect all games. 🤔 Sigh, I’ll just downgrade for the time being. Not in the mood to fiddle with this.
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I guess that qualifies as an “Arch moment”, albeit the first one I encountered. I’m running this since 2008 and it’s usually very smooth sailing. 😅
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah, YMMV. Some games work(ed) great in Wine, others not at all. I just use it because it’s easier than firing up my WinXP box. (I don’t use Wine for regular applications, just games.)
Just discovered how easy it is to recall my last arg in shell and my brain went 🤯 How come I’ve never learned about this before!? I wonder how many other QOL shortcuts I’m missing on 🥲
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz 🎵 Grafana ana bo bana fifo bo bana gra fana!🎶 Don’t mind me, I am nuts.
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I recommend you to remain curious without crossing the threshold. Unless, of course, you truly want to follow a never-ending rabbit hole. 😂
GRAFANA IS DRIVING ME NUTSSSSSSS
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com i’ve been curious about searxng!!!
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org as long as i get to see silly little tux sliding around in a silly game older than me it’s ok even if i committed windows/wine crimes to see it <33
I probably should implement some editing feature in tt
. Sure, I can easily edit my feed in vim to fix typos. But then I still have to manually remove the old message from the cache so that the new message is inserted on next reload and I don’t end up with “duplicates” in the message tree.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Must be a decode ago that I last used Wine. I wanted to play GTA2, but that didn’t go as planned.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de And there the air raid siren goes off.
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh no, how unpenguinly! But at least it runs, even races. :-)
pledge()
and unveil()
syscalls:
@movq@www.uninformativ.de That sounds great! (Well, they actually must have recorded the audio with a potato or so.) You talked about pledge(…)
and unveil(…)
before, right? I somewhere ran across them once before. Never tried them out, but these syscalls seem to be really useful. They also have the potential to make one really rethink about software architecture. I should probably give this a try and see how I can improve my own programs.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de arch moment
Wet t-shirt contest time! After our forest stroll I just wrung out the damn thing. Fuck me!
Speaking of Wine, Arch Linux completely fucked up Wine for me with the latest update.
- 16-bit support is gone.
- Performance of 3D games is horrible and unplayable.
Arch is shipping a WoW64 build now, which is not yet ready for prime time.
And then I realized that there’s actually only one stable Wine release per year but Arch has been shipping development releases all the time. That’s quite unusual. I’m used to Arch only shipping stable packages … huh.
Hopefully things will improve again. I’m not eager to build Wine from source. I’d rather ditch it and resort to my real Windows XP box for the little (retro)gaming that I do … 🫤
@movq@www.uninformativ.de i’m grateful that this works at least!
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz lol, oof, well, better than nothing. 🥴 It appears to run quite well. 🤔
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz UPDATE: getting it to run natively through a VM and other means all failed! so i did the cursed thing and tried the windows installer in wine…..
@thecanine@twtxt.net i do not get the reference but this is very cute!
Back to the future
from start to the end.
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com fuck yeah!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de missing libraries :( i expected it though
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yup 👍 Super interesting sruff 👌
@prologic@twtxt.net Ahhh, right, my bad, I could have easily found that. 🤦
There’s also a project page which lists some limitations of this study: https://www.media.mit.edu/projects/your-brain-on-chatgpt/overview/
It certainly sounds plausible. “Use it or lose it.”
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think it’s here on MIT’s website: Your Brain on ChatGPT: Accumulation of Cognitive Debt when Using an AI Assistant for Essay Writing Task 🤔
Felt the need to make this stupid reference - nobody will get, most likely. Feel free to guess (the file name and todays date, are both a hint), any other notes and opinions appreciated too, idk if I ever drew a standing one, from the front, before.
Achievement Unlocked: I have finally gotten to sit my ass down and watch Back to the future
from start to the end.
@prologic@twtxt.net But is there a source for it? Am I too stupid to use that site? 🤪
i.e: the “~30-40% drop in cognitive capabilities” for chronic users of Chatp GPT 🤣
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I was more interested in the MIT research tbh 😅
@prologic@twtxt.net … or just bullshit.
I’m Alex, COO at ColdIQ. Built a $4.5M ARR business in under 2 years.
Some “C-level” guy telling people what to do, yeah, I have my doubts.
@prologic@twtxt.net This doesn’t cite any sources, might as well be satire. 🤔
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Awww. :( Can you tell why? Missing libraries or does it just segfault?
update on tux racer: ofc it doesn’t run on modern linux LMFAOOOOOOO i’m installing red hat in a VM right now
@doesnm.p.psf.lt@doesnm.p.psf.lt so sorry for your suffering, and loss. :-P
To really annoy my neighbors and everyone in a 5 mile radius, I might take my Model M and type a blogpost on the balcony. 😈
