  • os-probe, the thing that suppose to help grub mkconfig auto-detect windows boot menu entry, is by default disabled in /etc/default/grub.

    You need to:

    • Make sure os-prober is installed
    • Uncomment GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false in /etc/default/grub
    • probably restart for good measure
    • Find out which disk partition holds your EFI system partition
    • mount that partition on /boot
    • run grub mkconfig and override /boot/grub/grub.cfg

  • A TLDR alternative to man pages
    While a man page is for every possible flag available for a command,
    A tldr is for the most common tasks a command can do.

    tldr fc
    
    fc
    
      Open the most recent command for editing and then run it.
      More information: https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html#index-fc.
    
      - Open the last command in the default system editor and run it after editing:
        fc
    
      - Specify an editor to open with:
        fc -e 'emacs'
    
      - List recent commands from history:
        fc -l
    
      - List recent commands in reverse order:
        fc -l -r
    
      - Edit and run a command from history:
        fc number
    
      - Edit commands in a given interval and run them:
        fc '416' '420'
    
      - Display help:
        fc --help
    






  • More often than most, middle are driving the speed limit, tailgaters are angry that you are not breaking the law.
    Imagine if you’re at a Disney park in a line for a ride, and the one behind you being pissed off you’re not stabbing every person in front of you.
    If that situation is crazy, why did we normalized breaking the speed limit because an asshole keep beeping and flashing their light at you?








  • Speaking of which - can someone find the link for “Unicode does not work like this” kind of website that emphasizes that there is no simple “character limit”? Like "how many characters is an emoji? " or “Is NBSP a character”, “are non-latin punctuation marks a character”
