I still have all of mine as well, including my first: a samsung sph-n200.

It’s numbers man don’t take it too seriously

Counter point: not necessarily. Example: I was born in the late 80s. I really grew up in the 90s and 2000s.

Haha you are definitely the person that came to my mind but my client only shows the plaintext username now so it’s a bit harder to spot you

Yea if we’re talking about biggest cultural impact I don’t think final destination is even in my top 50. It’s not even in my top 10 horror (IT, Psycho, Blair Witch Project, The Shining, Alien, Jaws, Saw, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Silence of the Lambs, The Exorcist)

Steel cut oats in my instant pot every morning. 1:2 oats to water, a little vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, 4 minutes high pressure with 10 minutes natural release. It doesn’t take long until it’s just a habit you never want to break. Your colon will thank you.

Hey now, microwaved frozen pancakes don’t count as actual pancakes!

I’m curious if you care to share more?

It’s great that you cherish that. Love that for you.

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.

Yea I come from the generation of reddit departures that left because of API lockdown and elimination of third party apps. Nowadays a lot of people join Lemmy because they got banned off of reddit for reasons of varying respectability. I would say it’s diluting the concentration of tech intel, as you say. Oh well.

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

Lol why are you getting downvoted this isn’t even a hot take. You are 100% right regex is famously enigmatic even among experienced software engineers.

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.

Pretty sure WinSCP is the best SCP/FTP client on any platform.

Is your point that you’re more likely to experience security vulnerabilities when using FOSS? Cause past a certain point of development that’s not generally the case.

That sir is some fluffy corn bread

Haha reminds me of a lanky white guy I knew named Will Smith.

Ah posts that age like wine
