> Any of the standard utilities may be implemented as regular built-in utilities within the command language interpreter. This is usually done to increase the performance of frequently used utilities or to achieve functionality that would be more difficult in a separate environment.
@eldersnake I personally would prefer having that problem and there's a cool way to fix it
@eldersnake It would be as safe as shell script under CGI, it could be done in a safe matter. Put it under a chroot and it's safer. Didn't get a chance to build anything with it lately. It would suffer from the same problems as CGI in general (slowness).
@eldersnake @slashdot What desire for revenue? Anyway, I installed and used Brave for a while, not a big fan of their ads either.
@eldersnake @slashdot I believe it's a good idea to not minify your JS, HTML also.
@quark I dissagree? Why escape?
@quark @stigatle We have 2 ppand awk scripts that do that. You could put them under CGI.
@prologic Was wondering the same thing.
@eldersnake @slashdot To be honest, I don't believe in either good or evil.
Ok, was temporarily banned on https://tildes.net/ because I said “they don’t need to escape” on this thread https://tildes.net/~health/yv0/thousands_of_people_are_trying_to_leave_qanon_but_getting_out_is_almost_impossible
@mckinley Site is cool
@quark I also forgot to say, that was a friend's story. 🤐
@eldersnake I was talking to a girl over Tinder 1-2 months ago that the most boring documentary to put you to sleep would be one about a single cricket. Only one! The whole documentary. He would be walking, jumping and chirping.
@eldersnake Depends on you understand by "interesting".\n\n> Food for observation\n\nVery well said!
@eldersnake I don't believe "thinking" as we commonly believe of it, as an act or action fits reality. Understanding comes from observation, not as goal in itself.
@eldersnake> I’m thinking of devs who don’t take the time and effort to understand;\n\nI just explained how understanding works. 😋😎 \n \n> Understating is done tru observation, hence effortless. Only when there's effort there's "lazines"
@laz Also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanlon%27s_razor
@laz\n\n> Problem is, makers stop releasing updates which forces users to upgrade, at least to another entry level phone.\n\nI'm not 100% sure it's planned obsolescence but chances are pretty high it is.\n\nHere's a good video on the topic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5v8D-alAKE
@eldersnake Depends on what you understand by lazy. I don't believe bloat is consequence of laziness, It's a consequence of misunderstanding. Understating is done tru observation, hence effortless. Only when you add effort there is "laziness".
Faster is not necessarily better.
In The Anti-iPhone Linus argues that you don't really need a flagship phone for everyday use, I believe that's the future for computers also. We're building faster CPU's to run bloat.
@jlj @eldersnake Would be nice it was in 3B+ sweet spot.
@lyse @prologic @anth UNIX timestamp-ish
@stigatle @prologic I observed some twtxt, twitter, mastodon, facebook, instagram, etc... bridges would be nice.
@prologic Yeah, would be nice to have docs for that.
@eldersnake I'm pretty sure they're going the update the Pinebook too considering the release of Quartz64.
@quark What are the new screen sizes?
@prologic Docs for?
@eldersnake Ah, you have an older model. The RPi2 4 also recommends a 3A one https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/type-c-power-supply, so you must have an older model. No reason to change if it works.
@eldersnake There's also https://pine64.com/product-category/rock64/
@stigatle Chromium is usable, but only with a few tabs open and simple sites are prefered.
@stigatle Would be nice to! I would also like one, can't afford it and they're also out of stock due the silicon shortage. I'm considering repairing one of my old X220t in the meantime. I ran OpenbBSD fine on the Pinebook, it works great if all you use are terminals.
Raspberry PI owners, why aren't you using a https://www.pine64.org/quartz64b/ instead?
@lyse @jlj Yup, awesome! Good job!
Morning!
PinePhone Pro
@prologic @eldersnake \n\n> Hopefully the in-app browser doesn’t look this terrible on real devices\n\nWould be nice if. 😋
@fastidious Yeah, I remember the time when I googled "bookface.
@movq There's a series I case you didn't notice. There are 3 articles. https://christine.website/blog/series/v
@laz What is bigbluebutton?
@eldersnake It's a good idea to read this https://christine.website/blog/v-vaporware-2019-06-23
@fastidious @stigatle Maybe he's rebuilding the plane,
@stigatle @prologic @lyse He just made a wallpaper. 😁
@jlj @prologic \n\n> Tandem bicycling for the visually impaired\n\nCool idea, good job, yeah would be nice to blog.\n\nIs https://www.tandemonium.fun/ the new web site, the one you're building or is it the old one?
Oh, so an Apple Developer ID is 100$? There's no free option?
@prologic Ha, not tonight.
Morning!
@stigatle @laz @prologic Hi, guess it's a good idea to say something myself as https://mkws.sh marker. 😋😁
Drinking
Morning!
@movq @lyse There's vis, there's neovim, I prefer vi sometimes because of startup times.
@lyse Not a big fan of vim.
@aman Welcome!
@lyse To be honest, there are times when I would mostly prefer just opening plain vi.
@quark @prologic I also mostly prefer classless CSS.
@quark @eldersnake But a <small> tag wouldn't hurt very much.
@quark @eldersnake Also, even tho the spec allows it, I'm not a big fan of using HTML in Markdown.
@quark @prologic Well, if you're sick, you're sick. 😛
@movq @eldersnake Debian/Ubuntu has the alternatives mechanism, never been a fan on it.
@slashdot World doesn't need saving.
On another note, Morning! ☕
@eldersnake @movq macOS vi is vim
Do you know any other communities I could post mkws to? On another subject, would be cool if tildeverse sites, like https://tildeverse.org, http://ctrl-c.club/ or https://tilde.institute/ would be done with mkws. 😁😎
https://tilde.news/s/ul2kis/mkws_simple_static_site_generator
Crap, I have to sign those macOS binaries.
@quark She doesn't need saving.
@eldersnake \n\n>For those working in media, be aware that titles such as “The Afghan Inferno” and “Crisis in Afghanistan” are dangerous. The chaos at Hamid Karzai International Airport right now is due to such irresponsible media coverage, which is swiftly translated into Afghan media.
@eldersnake \n\n> My dears, \nThank you all for the birthday wishes. This surely turned out to be a memorable one. I am in Kabul, safe, and despite the scenes at the airport that you all see on TV nowadays, most of the city is calm, and there is no reason for me to leave.\n\n20 August
She said western media exaggerates the events which makes matters worse over there because of misinformation. She refused to leave. She didn't sound like she needed saving or in need of escaping.
https://tildes.net/~comp/y3x/help_open_source_contributors_escape_afghanistan_open_collective\n\nMy highschool girlfriend was a few months ago in Afghanistan after the Taliban takeover, she said the atmosphere was mostly peaceful and that they were treating people in a civilized manner.
@eldersnake Send them an email!

Ok, listened to the OpenBSD song, very emotional
@eldersnake Yeah, that's my problem, I'd rather not start tinkering my phone. Might make it unusable for some time or even brick it? I don't have a back up one.
I have some positive reviews to link to I haven't linked yet.
@prologic https://jamstack.org/generators/ search for React.
@fastidious Changed it!
@fastidious If you're refering to the icon, I'm aware of that, I have to change it.
@eldersnake I didn't take the time to learn React to be honest, but I disagreed with the "JavaScript all the things" idea.
@lyse @eldersnake So agree! *smashes Post*
@eldersnake Ooops, weren't published, now they are, t is just a template for _testimonials_.
@movq @quark \n\n> There was a time (after the Perl era) when everbody built their own web site … in PHP, with MySQL. 🤣 What a mess. \n\nI so remember that. The child of that period is Wordpress.
Ok, more negative reviews https://mkws.sh/!
https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/albus\n\n> WARNING: The Motorola Moto Z2 Play is no longer maintained. A build guide is available for developers that would like to make private builds, or even restart official support.\n\nThis means my phone is not supported by LineageOS?
@jlj Including the new one, Fairphone 4?
Guys, what were your issues with the Fairphone?
@quark Updated!
@eldersnake Motorola Z2 Play
@prologic I could I guess, what other platforms are there?
@prologic No more "official" updates.
@prologic Final Android version for that model.
I highly recommend mosh!
@prologic I wonder if these are accurate https://gs.statcounter.com/android-version-market-share/mobile-tablet/worldwide/#monthly-202101-202101-bar
@prologic I'm on Android 8.0 Oreo.
@prologic That one I have, the yarn one, I don't.
@prologic I can see it now, I'm on my laptop. 😁😋😎
@prologic The emoji, lol.
@prologic @darch I can't see that on my Android phone.
