Wonderful news - Jerboa is fine, but more competition is always a good thing.

Bartenders are a case that you’ve missed. A standard cash rate is $1 per drink. Bartenders have a lot of leeway when it comes to how quickly you’re served, and how strong your drinks will be, so tipping well may be in your interest.

You don’t need echo if you use the here string:

sed 's/ on mobile//g' <<< "I will not be using reddit on mobile."

True, I was assuming zsh/bash - https://www.shellcheck.net/wiki/SC3011 has the posix-compliant equivalent.

I’ve been trying to learn “Iambic 9 Poetry” by Squarepusher, really trying to improve my harmonics.

Something that helps a lot if your practice is getting stale, is to play at 1/2 or 1/4 tempo and really focus on how each note sounds. Playing full speed can mask a lot of mistakes.

I was also there since 2008, and was a heavy user. I’ve checked in a few times in the past month (a lot of my more niche communities haven’t moved over yet), but I don’t comment or interact anymore. Once Relay dies it’s off my phone (it’s already lost the homescreen shortcut), and if old.reddit dies I’m done forever.

Meta’s Twitter clone. The smart thing they did was convert over Instagram accounts, so there’s a ton of semi-famous people on already. It’s got a ton of attention in the past two days, just for being Twitter sans Elon.

Having worked network support, the number of times I’ve been on a screen share with someone who opens an excel sheet from the share drive that holds all the root passwords for every network device they own is high. A bad actor could take down some very large companies with some simple social engineering skills.

They moved to a system where it would just auto-sale you the title if you kept it too long after the due date, which people were furious about when they showed up with a title that was due back a month ago. Netflix really ate their lunch though, Blockbuster online was too little too late.

I could very well have been that developer. Usual story, sales promised the world, that our vmware-based system would run on anything and everything, and of course it’s all HA and load balanced, smash cut to me on Monday morning trying to figure out how to make it do that before it goes live on Wednesday.
