Quick #bash tip: When you have a complex command on your history, that you need to change before re-executing, press <CTRL+X><CTRL+E> and Bash will open up your default editor with the line loaded on it, change what you need and exit-save to execute it.#linux #commandline

@boilingsteam for me, it's today. It's the São Paulo's founding aniversary. Thing is, I forgot and clocked in, I just realised an hour later, when I noticed the daily meeting had been cancelled :ablobcatcry:

@boilingsteam the Deck is spawning it's own software eco-system and this is awesome.

@boilingsteam No trackpads nor gyro means most games will be unplayable without an external controller. And by that I mean Dualshocks.

@boilingsteam I'm dumb, so I paid almost $1,400 for mine.., It's called "Brazil Tax". Thanks to the shitty politics, everything electronic here costs twice as much as in the US... 😡

@boilingsteam There was a brief period between 1991 and IIRC 1996 that the tariff was about less than 30% with an exemption for the first $500 (reset every 6 months). Then a POS of a president called Fernando Henrique Cardoso bumped it to the current levels.

@boilingsteam Nope. Protectionism like that ALWAYS backfires.

@boilingsteam Computers that are assembled (meaning, putting the motherboard on the chassis) on the duty-free zone in Manaus (capital of the state of Amazonas. Yes, in the MIDDLE OF THE AMAZON FOREST!!!) are exempt. But final assembly != than a thriving technology industry.

@boilingsteam It would save me about $200, but the visa costs about $160, that is assuming I don't get stopped by the customs when coming back and forced to pay the tariffs. It would only be worth the risk for more expensive stuff, like a fully decked MacBook.

@fell @selfhosted@lemmy.world @selfhosted@a.gup.pe @selfhosted@kbin.social #Podman ? Ok, sorry. Try https://www.pgadmin.org/. You'll still have to run the database yourself before you can administer it with pgAdmin, tho. So get used to apt/yum/dnf/docker/podman/etc.

@BrodieOnLinux Just because it's in Assembly, it doesn't mean it can't be bloated. As someone who used to program an MSX in Z80 Assembly back in the day, I can most definitely say that ASM programs can be as bloated as anything else.

@aral The code of Hamurabi, carved into stone 5000 years ago says "Establish the law over the land, so the powerful does not harm the weak". This should be the basic function of any state, especially in our age. The fact that assholes like Musk can do whatever they want unimpeded is proof that the American Congress failed at it and became completely bankrupt from a moral perspective.

Sam Altman's Crypto Orb Scam arrived in my country. This is an egregious theft of peoples most valuable personal information, since what's given in return have no value at all, while giving Altman potentially billions of Dollars once he starts selling this data.#crypto #scam #SamAltman #WorldCoin #privacy

#Fellon #Ellon wants to re-write all the Social Security software in Java, in just a few months.Thing is, those systems track the US's social security legislation and court decisons very closely. It's spaghetti code mandated by law.It would be a miracle if the system could be re-written in 6 YEARS. Six months are just delusions of a deranged mind.#ellonmusk #Fascist #socialsecurity #Trump #deposeelon #FuckTrump

@ThatWouldBeTelling @autolycus @mike805 The earliear success of Tesla and SpaceX were in spite of Musk. As soon as he started forcing his will on them, we got the shit show that is the SSybertruck and starship.
