  • macOS switched from AFS to samba for file sharing & time machine backups a while ago; it's been a while since I had first-hand experience setting up a Mac, but based on that fact I'm pretty sure samba is more straightforward to use. ... it annoyingly mangles unix file ownership, & permissions though, as mentioned above in https://lemmy.ml/comment/10204431

  • That's not a consideration in favor of grouping h/j as the 'back keys', and k/l as the 'forward' keys, though. It's perfectly comfortable & intuitive to have the index finger on the key that goes forward.

  • Why, though? Why is it so obvious that j 'should have' been [edit: up]?

  • doas is likewise configurable; though the mechanism that keeps track of the timeout is different on OpenBSD (where doas originated) & Linux ---- and there used to be some reservations about the latter implementation.

  • There's a linux port for the SGI file browser featured in the movie: https://fsv.sourceforge.net/ ---- haven't run it in ages, though; I don't know if it's still functional.

  • Same in Turkish; I think it may be Greek in origin. I used to think that it's baby-talk, like many other primordial words like 'mamma', 'baba', etc; but it doesn't seem to be universal like those.

  • Not using KDE right now; but I'm happy to see that there's finally an official Breeze theme for Qt6 apps.

  • Yes, just as GNOME stands for GNOME has NO MErcy.

  • I am afraid that the need to understand how tools work will never go out of fashion. Not everyone's horizons are limited to one-time quick & dirty solutions.

    chatgpt makes it ... go, amirite?

  • This is the gunslinger linux youtuber guy, right?; maybe he should try installing arch while reassembling his gun blindfolded, or some stupid gimmick of that sort; that would be a challenge.

  • Yeah; & by the way, warp is funding fzf, as there's a big thank you banner on fzf & fzf-vim's github pages nowadays. I'm glad fzf is getting support, of course; though it feels odd somehow.

  • Also animate it at ~10fps, making it visibly sad when it can't retrieve the files you ask for.

  • To me this is complete nonsense --- but they (warp) seem to be funding fzf ... which is good on their part, I guess.

  • You can define a bunch of aliases in any shell environment for that. Or use a history manager (a database client essentially) that groups commands you've entered so far based on frequency, return value, working dir. when they were issued etc.

  • I was intrigued for a moment; installed the package; then got greeted with this -- I don't think I'll proceed any further:
