Yeah. I found that post after I, too, was banned.

Relevant discussion: !Linuxsucks@lemmy.world mod silently bans people from their community for disagreeing, and tries to hide the comments from being seen in the modlog.

Q.E.D.

Just casually admitting crimes in public.

Worth noting that it also has a bunch of free alternatives for sync, some self-hostable, and you were talking about the paid service hosted by the Tasks.org devs.

I’ve had a variation on that with hot honey and coffee grounds. Mm-mm.

I think you might be looking for something like OpenSnitch.

Found the Golgafrincham.

Hey, that’s the combination on my luggage!

There’s a lot of “X1 Carbon 6th” listed here.

Possibly my light/dark mode scripts. They change my Plasma theme, which is honestly most of the job, but also set the matching GTK theme, set the new theme in running Konsole sessions, do a bunch of manual sed edits on conf files for applications that don’t follow system theming, finally restarting plasmashell to clean up the occasional edge case where a tray icon is supposed to follow the theme but doesn’t.

FreshTomato still supports these devices.

The post was about being asked to disable background blurring specifically.

It’s not for everyone, but if “collection of perl scripts” sounds like your jam, GnuPod still works for a CLI option.

I don’t think these things are universal across software, but you can often put -f on its own, separate from other flags, or get in the habit of using the long --force flag.

When I first saw sudo I assumed it was pronounced “pseudo” because it lets you fake like you’re doing stuff as another user. So that has stuck for me. (And despite all evidence, I still low-key believe it’s a clever pun encompassing both that and the official “superuser do.”)

Everybody who doesn’t die young is going to get old and wrinkly

I’m certainly not disagreeing with you, but let’s not overlook how protecting your skin from sun exposure can help as the years pile on.

The real armies are the limbs we’ve numbed along the way.

Too many options to remember and look up every time

This is a good use case for shell aliases. If you can identify a few of your use cases, you can give each bundle of options its own command.

If you put in a little extra unroll/reroll work, you can make it mysteriously change direction mid-roll and you’ll be long gone.
