That is definitely not right. That sounds like you don’t have a shebang or it isn’t defined correctly. The shebang has to be the very first thing in the script, with no whitespace before it. It gets read out by the kernel, which very dumbly checks the first few bytes.

And well, such a shebang should also work for Python or the like. If you copy the first script in this link into a file script.py, then run chmod +x script.py and finally run ./script.py, does that print Hello, World! ?

I have fish set as the default command to run when my terminal emulator starts, but my system-wide default shell is bash and I always throw a #!/bin/sh or #!/bin/bash shebang at the top of my scripts either way.

With that setup, I hardly notice fish’s syntax differences. Are you using it like that, too?

Yeah, modern computers often feel like a scam. Obviously, some things are faster and obviously, we can calculate more complex problems.
But so often, programs are only optimized until they reach a level of “acceptable” pain. And especially with monopolistic, commercial software that level is close to infinity, because well, it’s acceptable so long as customers don’t switch to competitors.

Either way, the slowness that was acceptable twenty years ago is generally still acceptable today, so you get much of the same slowness despite being on a beefier PC.

I guess, those don’t work for hidden/minimized windows.

Perhaps worth considering a bspwm-like workflow. Rather than minimizing windows, you put them onto another workspace. Just absolves you from dealing with the whole concept of minimized windows…

It’s still effectively Chrome under the hood…

It was so funny, too, because even back then, they had already set an end-of-life date for 2025.

Do you mean 36 = 18 there? Otherwise, I’m very confused. 😅

Yeah, when I found the meme template, it did say that, too, but I wasn’t sure if that information is actually helpful to someone reading alt text. Personally, I only know the guy from the memes. 😅

Yeah, I tried it in my other comment, and at first it started with “I think, folks…” which was already a dead end, because any continuation I tried would eventually need a “they”. Kind of wild that something as basic as plural can fuck you up. 😅

Yeah, I figured, once I actually thought about it. 😅

I mean, yeah, I studied computer science. Presumably, I’ve been taught the majority of these at some point. I just absolutely fucking hate mathematical notation.

Due to your comment, I’m guessing, top-left is multiplication then, even though I was also taught in school to use × for multiplication.
Top-center might be logical AND? Top-right might be function composition? Center-left and center-right might be ranges, unless those dots indicate multiplication, then no fucking clue. Bottom left is set intersection. And one of these circles or crosses is probably the Cartesian product.

So, I mean, I do know some of this shit. In truth, I was just deriding mathematical notation with that meme, because well, “Set” is the only actual word in all that mathematical notation… 😵‍💫

I’m now imagining you going to the grocery store, pretending to be your twin, to get the employee discount. 🙃

I think, you usually post, if you got a thing to say. And thus you want to say that thing, not look for formulations all day long…

Mastodon instance where you can’t post the letter “e”: https://oulipo.social/public/local 🙃

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks! 🙂

I believe, Geiger counters are not supposed to make regular noises…?

Yeah, had to think of this right away:

Would love to know, too. To my European eyes, it looks like onions, potatoes, apples and tomatoes, but surely they have some different produce there. Whatever is in the bottom-left does look unfamiliar, at least…

The problem is that Nazis love to appeal to some hypothetical right to freedom of speech, because they want to shift the Overton window. That is why people are being particular with the wording here and why your post is getting downvotes.

It also makes it hard to answer, because, well, if you are a Nazi, expect to be banned from various communities and instances significantly faster than on Reddit. Supporting the harm of others is not an opinion worth tolerating.

The moderators on my instance have banned people for repeatedly asking what exactly is allowed to be said, and I’ve come to support that decision, because yeah, Overton window and all that.

But what if your kink is personal attention?
