OK, follow-up question: what does ‘lovies’ mean?

What is this and how is it relevant to the community you’re posting in?

hence the distraint

Is this a typo or a cool new word I can use?

I like using word association as a game. It’s quick to learn, doesn’t need any equipment, and it’s no problem to join or leave the table whenever you like.

Try to get from some word (eg HOME) to some other word (eg SUMMIT) taking only small, obvious steps.

Each step should make a pair of terms that “obviously” fit together. They can fit together because they sound similar (HOME -> ROAM), or they are written similarly (HOME -> HOLE), or have an obviously-related meaning (HOME -> AWAY)… anything that makes sense to the group.

You can take turns around a circle. When it’s your turn, you announce the next link. If anyone thinks the link isn’t small enough or obvious enough, they can object and you’ll need to pick a different link. Then it’s the next person’s turn.

You can play competitively if you like (the person to reach the target word wins) but it also works fine without announcing a winner.

According to the PieFed developers page:

The API for third-party apps (frontends, bots, etc) is 95% the same as the Lemmy API.

I don’t know if there’s anything special that Voyager needs to do. Maybe it even works already!

And now the cropping is fixed, so the comments deriding the cropping don’t make sense anymore.

Yeah some of the libraries near me have a selection of video games on the shelves. At least one even has board games.

I love libraries.

What does Willow (1986) have to do with data? Isn’t it, like, a sword-and-sorcery fantasy movie?

Oh I bet there’s a character with a name that sounds like the word “data”.

My friend had light switches that glowed with a bright blue LED glow.

I couldn’t stand it. I prefer to sleep in the actual darkness.

Cheese with Japanese curry? Sounds pretty whacky, whatever shape it’s in.

Also there’s an elegant solution to keeping some rice visible out of the curry and it doesn’t involve any extra ingredients.

Syncthing may not have its own Web-based file browser but a regular Web server (like Apache or ngninx) can show a list of files in a directory without much configuration. Just point it at a shared folder. You could configure a fancier file browser like Filestash, File Browser Quantum, or even Nextcloud if you feel it’s worthwhile.

Likewise, Syncthing may not have its own concept of a “main” hoster, but it doesn’t need to: you can decide what “main” means to you. Perhaps the one you designate “main” has different ignore patterns, or a longer retention policy.

“Keeping some files remote” can be simply making sure your ignore patterns are set how you want them, if that works for you.

Color codes will pass through pipes just like any other output.

In this case, your grep is being smarter than you want and actually parsing the incoming color codes itself.

You can try a simpler program like head, tail, or even sed -n /ii/p to see it for yourself.

You can also control GNU grep’s color processing with --color but you may not find exactly what you seek.

I like it!

Quesadilla looks like there’s room to mangle it further:

or even

like there was saddle in there

MODE=0022 sounds like user perms are different from group and other.

0022 in octal perms corresponds to u=rwx, g=rx, o=rx.

I don’t know if udev “MODE” is the relevant thing here but you could try 0002 so the user part and group part are the same.

Do you mean you want to put the resulting image files into a particular folder on your computer?

I would have thought anything to do with folders and stuff is up to your scanning software, not the scanning device.

Is it possible for a game to read two mice separately? Sure. It’s not common, but it’s possible.

The game “Lemmings” was ported everywhere in the early 1990s, but the original Amiga version supported two mice at the same time (two mice, two players, two cursors).

That’s a rare example of a game that designed in some support for two mice, and that support was specific to one platform.
