  • I just explain but starting how you can email gmail from Outlook and such ( familiar concept). Then tell them you could email a Facebook account using username@facebook.com (this shows they were open to it at some point), that it was a default state of things because they wanted you connected. But then they realized they can make you sign up to their own website and make more money, so now we need account for everything. But imagine you didn’t, you could access different contents in the UI/format you want. You don’t need to share screenshots of different social media (shows why it’s useful), you could just follow different people from different websites.

    So far this explanation has worked. I haven’t converted anyone, but they understand. Sometimes they try to install and see, then say “the things I want are not here” because we don’t have all the niche






  • Now I’m thinking why don’t we make an image editor that we can customize the simple UI. Like users choose which sliders and tools to put on the ui, it’ll be simple UI with like just 5-10 buttons/sliders/tools, but you van customize it to have basically anything. That way you can simply drag drop tools make new UI and then use it for specific use cases.

    Maybe already existing tools have that options. Or maybe we need to make a new one, in that case, it’d be nice if we could just add all different tools in dlls or sth, so that you can only download/keep the tools you use.


  • So basically,

    I want other people to work hard, get in trouble, and all that, so that I can just enjoy my own life not having to worry about those stuffs.

    Works great, until everyone starts thinking the same, and then noone works towards making your life better. It just gets worse and worse, because only people focusing on politics are doing it for their benefits. And then you start blaming anyone and everyone except yourself for making it worse for you.




  • This reminds me when I was applying for credit card they couldn’t confirm my identity because they were on a call with me and said this number is not associated to your name in any databases.

    I got it in my name from the provider idk what other “databases” they have with names and numbers, but I’m happy I’m not there.


  • I’m not that knowledgeable about the events. But did he name the cult?

    If someone else named the cult, and someone else wrote the Bible. And the book did not exist in his time. Then even if he was a real person that wanted good in the world, he was never a part of the religion/cult that was started in his name, right?



  • I guess it can go unnoticed, I use Arch so maybe that’s why I got more involved. I remember searching why auto completion didn’t work, then finding out I need to install bash-completions package. After knowing that it makes one curious about how it works. Then the next stage is writing it for my own programs because it obviously won’t come with bash-completions package.

    I once wrote a shell (terminal) to watch anime, and I wrote auto completion for different commands on it, it was really nice to just type play then prefix and then tab for auto completion on anime names, and even for episodes I wrote auto completion give me last episode I watched + 1.


  • Whenever someone says they don’t really like terminal because they don’t like to type or remember commands. This is what I think “they didn’t use auto complete”.

    Auto complete works for file names and paths by default, but the development can write it to only complete certain extensions. Like auto complete for image program only completes image files. Then you have completion for commands, subcommands and flags.

    Auto complete is done through calling a bash script with currently typed line, and the bash script can call other commands. So developer can write a really complicated auto complete and make it available as a binary if they want, and just use that in bash. Or you can use many tools that will generate auto complete script for you based on your commandline args.

    If you write your own scripts/cli binaries I recommend learning how to write auto complete for it. Makes it incredibly easy to use the tools.
