Most people, when talking abstractly about data privacy, are all for it, I think. But then see how many of us participate in bonus programs when shopping, carry smartphones that track our locations at all times, give all kinds of permission

I remember a time where I was playing "A mind forever voyaging" every day while listening to "Jazz impressions from New York" by Dave Brubeck on endless repeat. Good times. Both are excellent pieces of art and I can atte

The problem is existing shell scripts not written by yourself.

Ah, right, sorry. I confused it with Voyager 6.

Would that potentially break shell scripts that rely on the standard ls behavior?

Completely OT, but I noticed in the last two days or so that I'm getting way more (often unskippable) ads before youtube videos, despite running uBlock Origin. Has anyone else noticed that too?

Thanks for clarifying once again. This confirmed what I understood you meant. I think your tie-breaker argument is totally fair which is why I didn't even try to contest it. But now that I'm thinking about it a little bit more, I
