I think the standard is ~/.local/bin, for the people that like standards.

You'll love zoxide then.

In my experience (not in Android apps but in Arch Linux updates) parallel downloads are almost always waaay faster. Magnitudes faster. Using multiple cores? Is it the bottleneck actually enforced by the server? I don't know, I just know it works.

And if they did it, it's because it works on Android too.

In every post of this kind I am amazed at so many people using nano instead of micro which is SO MUCH BETTER while being the same thing at the same time.

I am a fan of Python's or Rust's official conventions.

For package names, tho, I don't get why this-is-used over this_clearly_better_system, as I would expect a double click to select_the_whole_thing, whereas it does-not-happen-here.

It's a shame that Proton VPN has no official flatpak. The Arch Linux AUR package's been broken for a long while now.

Many street numbers do not exist in OpenStreetMap because no one created them! So if you know about some area with this issue, help edit the map!

Let's face it, if you install Linux (or even Windows!) for your mom, you put VLC in there.

Yes, some other tools are better at some things, but VLC is the perfect choice for the "standard" user.

A glass back is not necessary for wireless charging. There's many materials that can fit there, the glass choice is purely for "premium" feel.

I was kinda referencing warp, a supposedly new terminal that was also written in Rust, had AI stuff, started on Mac, and finally got a Linux version, which lasted 30 seconds on my computer once I saw there is no option to use it unless you make an account. Yes. For a LOCAL terminal. Nuts.

Kobo is open source? I don't think so.

I think simple always wins, and that is Upvotes + Downvotes. It gives you the size of both sides of the coin, while it also allows me to kinda see "woah, this post is generating lots of engagement", whereas score + % may show a 2 + 50% and I don't really know what that means.
