That’s a great list of working stuff. Brilliant. I hope that one day that’ll be on a device that isn’t impossible to find here.

Yes. Most of those are just costs. I’d replace that with building a customer base and doing the math for how much of it you need to keep income over costs. That’s what kills most business ideas.
In a developing country rates also go down with civilization as people learn how not to breed like bacteria. But once it’s about choice, that starts to be a good list. I’d almost list safety as a common theme in them. And in Russia… yeah.
This one seriously made adult me very uneasy.
Simpsons also, a bit, iirc.
Not a bad trip. Funnily enough, DD is probably one of the few things I haven’t read yet. I probably started work cat’s cradle (pretty late).
And there’s a lot of people in the world that effectively get told this all their life.
Some for things that aren’t even their choice.
Everybody definitely doesn’t.
I don’t think I’ve found amazing things recently. Things worth using and things better than the alternative and things that are promising to maybe one day be great, yes.
But I’ll single out one little thing: dust. https://github.com/bootandy/dust
Dust is meant to give you an instant overview of which directories are using disk space without requiring sort or head. Dust will print a maximum of one ‘Did not have permissions message’.
Dust will list a slightly-less-than-the-terminal-height number of the biggest subdirectories or files and will smartly recurse down the tree to find the larger ones. There is no need for a ‘-d’ flag or a ‘-h’ flag. The largest subdirectories will be colored.
It’s like a killer combination of du and sort oneliners that actually shows me what I want to know: What’s the big stuff in this dir.
Depends on the machine and… maybe other things. I used to think that, too, but on my current machines I can step backwards just fine.
It’s probably a much more intensive operation requiring processing a lot of the file from before and throwing away current buffers or something.
It was not. 30 years ago, it would have been very good, though, as a lot of media was still SD.
Device, maybe. What happens to the games bought from a DRM monopoly?
Names actually have a really high collision rate, so for collecting information they’re not good. You don’t want all the different John Smiths’ data clumped together. They’re useful once you start sending personalized stuff in though.
don’t recall it having a cpu
So, what’s updating the display? Power supply imps?
Why did the reuse old master tapes?
Money. Or the perception that there isn’t money to be gained from the replication and maintenance of the archives.
Paper doesn’t last, is hard to store, and the information density is miserable.
And for bigger data sets, the capacity isn’t there. And writable media is getting more rare. Probably because of the same reason.
I think those should work, but if you’re entirely degoogled, maybe running a container would work?
