Once something makes it to Linux, it's very hard to root out. As long as there's even just ONE dedicated developer keeping it alive, it'll remain there.

John Carmack made it a point to show Doom 3 doing exactly that, in 2004, 19 years ago.

I mean, you can just run "boxxy aws" if you don't want to make an alias. That's your solution for "intercept without requiring aliasing" As the program intercepts file APIs for all processes launched under it,

A hidden file, even. Stop using "ls -A" and you'll be fine.

That's just plainly false. Their private life was not affected by what JK Rowling has said. Rather, their political opinion differs and a choice to be offended was made. As political protest, the mod decides the best course of action w

No collision on the pipes makes it trivially easy to just keep pressing the same letter to stay alive. Don't need to care about wordle progress, and hardly even on the flappy bird part.

It's not accurate to say AsciiDoc only has a single implementation, there is the original AsciiDoc written in Python, and also there is AsciiDoctor written in Ruby. Unfortunately, AsciiDoctor is merely _mostly_ compatible and deliberat

Opinions are just that, and cannot be wrong. It is possible to not enjoy the Beatles at all, it's even possible to do so while recognizing what they did for music overall. I do think the Beatles were (and still are) a little bit overra

Flat-earthers aren't by their nature demonizing and dehumanizing groups of people. If done in sincerity, they merely disagree with consensus about the nature of the planet we're on. It's quite a drastic change from that to an

I've never been sufficiently convinced that most "flat earthers" are actually serious about it. The movement seems to consist of a large ratio of people claiming such just to troll.
