exactly

some claim that was the inspiration for nushell: powershell but less verbose and more bashy

The Unicode bars aren’t actually stored; that’s just the graphical representation of the table datatype which you can think of as JSON

To be fair, I’m fairly sure the zsh interpreter has a POSIX sh mode

Hopefully you’re not using the sh language—hopefully you’re restraining yourself from using any of the non-POSIX extensions then

Your scripts should have Bourne shebangs

I mean, the article embeds a video plastered with “VILEISBANNED.COM” in warning tape–style text.

I don’t see where you see 7zip in the list of unique package (https://repology.org/projects/?inrepo=nix_unstable&families=1). I only see the unrelated 7z2hashcat.

Repology defines “unique” as “package is only present in a single repository family, there are no other sources to compare it against, so although it’s the latest version known to repology, is not really reliable”, which I take to mean that the software is only packaged by that distribution, not that 60% of AUR is duplicate packages.

nixos has the largest amount of packages

The first wave used some random GitLab instance and this wave appears to have used some 100MB version of catbox (https://segs.lol). Both had deleted the payload files when I tried to obtain them

if you didn’t install google-chrome-stable yesterday*

GitHub allows you to use a debit card, at least in the US. You might want to check again.

That’s easy, just say there were features they wanted

Not really with archiinstall, but indeed as you say reading the manual is an expectation. Their philosophy is “creating an environment that is straightforward and relatively easy for the user to understand directly, rather than providing polished point-and-click style management tools”, as well-summarized by Wikipedia.

wants to shape their OS and user experience as they think is best

tbh that goes for every distro. It’s just that Canonical is more hands-on with its approach. The major complaint with Snap besides performance issues is Canonical making it so that only the Snap versions of popular apps (most famously, the bundled Firefox) are available by default.

game rentals have their place

Isn’t prohibiting them from not releasing the server software after they shut down the ultimate way to not reward them for such behavior?

Thanks! I’m new to Wikinews too but my impression is that the only thing you need to cite an interview is files of the medium over which the medium was conducted: audio for calls, logs for chats, email threads for… emails, etc. (The parts that aren’t part of the interview’s conversation do need to be sourced, though Wikinews doesn’t appear to do inline citations.) So I would need that to post this on Wikinews. (assuming they allow such non–“first-hand” content in the first place, which I think they should but can’t find anything about lol)

Honestly “cultural influence” kinda sounds like “you get paid with exposure”.
