vlc --help outputs text with colors which makes it so much easier to skim

jq is sort of like awk but specifically meant for JSON so it should be a lot easier.

If you view the source of the homepage, you’ll see some HTML that starts with this:

<div class="archive-dropdown-wrap">
    <ul class="archive-dropdown">                       
        <li><span class="chapter-label">Issue 1</span><ul><li><a href="https://strongfemaleprotagonist.com/issue-1/page-0/">Cover

That’s the HTML for the drop-down. Although if I were you, I’d look into taking advantage of WordPress’ JSON API, since that website uses WordPress.

For example, here’s a list of the images uploaded to the site in JSON format: https://strongfemaleprotagonist.com/wp-json/wp/v2/media?per_page=100&page=1 (Limited to 100 entries per page)

Not bad for a first meme. I rate it 6½/10. We’ll be watching your meme career with great interest. 👍

They think this will take some of the heat off of them. Hopefully no one actually thinks this is a reasonable compromise. If I want to help an elderly family member install something on their phone during Thanksgiving dinner or a family reunion, I’m not gonna want to wait a day. Uncle Paul’s flying back to Florida tomorrow morning!

I don’t know your exact use case, but I suspect that learning Godot might be very worth it. It’s a really intuitive engine.

I wouldn’t give someone I barely know a second or third chance after being told to get out and then ghosted. If he doesn’t respect you, that’s an absolute dealbreaker, in my opinion.

Fuckin’ “A.”

Good example of why I don’t rely on technology I don’t control. I want my workflow to be future-proof and have a predictable cost.

AutoHotkey. I’ve been meaning to try out AHK_X11 although I don’t think there’s a Wayland option yet :\

Oh and CorelDRAW. Inkscape is not bad but its UI is not quite as slick.

Wear Sunscreen

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, Sunscreen would be it

I’m so dumb. I thought this was gonna be about “free as in beer” media

When I first decided to switch to Linux, I started exclusively using apps that were available on Linux. This way I was able to gradually transition my workflows one app at a time without any rush. When I was ready to install Linux, I did it on a new computer so I still had access to everything on the old computer and there was no risk of going computer-less if the installation went sideways.

Also, keep in mind that Asahi only works on M1 and M2 Macs. (If you have an old Intel Mac, you can just run normal Linux without Asahi)

Oh and Veronica Explains has a great video about her experience with Asahi.

Downvoted for no neofetch

I haven’t seen them say anything about their older phones so I would assume this only applies to the new one
