If you can't manage it with Shell scripting you should take a look at Python. I've written Perl for many years but in the end switched to Python because the internet and resources you can find are much more quantitative and qualit

I've reported some bugs and one thing that I always hate is the GPG Key. It is always a huge hassle to use for some reason and for half of the time it doesn't even seem correct or the other party isn't even using it themselve

by 878654Tom 3y ago
Is the focus of Mozilla not primarely their browser anymore because of this acquisition?

We had something like this but for French. The website was used for real tests and assignments but the answers would be loaded somewhere even if the test/assignment would not show you if you got it wrong. So we made a Javascript one-li
