Not the GP, but I want to point out that while I respect the chief maintainer and not doubt their credibility with fish's users, no one is immune to mental fallacies. GP's comment points out where there's gaps in thinking&#x2

I use FFmpeg for multiple streams and mux them into another container file format. Don't see what LosslessCut does outside of FFmpeg expect for the UI. The backend is anyway FFmpeg as another comment mentions. CLI haters I can underst

_Coding Projects in Python_ is a nice book I found and doesn't have any proprietary stuff. Just plain, offline programs one can try at leisure.

Not the GP, but I seen family to have elders who's aware and keen on not having a lot of shiny stuff in general. Computers _are_ shiny for kids in such households.

Thanks for your answer. Never realised the overlap between rm and rmdir. Actually the philosophy is a nice guideline but blindly holding on to it for the heck of it is childish. Your comment made me realise that.

While this is true to some extent, trying to be overly generic and solving for all cases is the root of the analysis-parslysis. I end up solving just the part that's needed for the problem in hand but accepting meaningful compromises a
