…more fancy such as using tar -X, which works for me. I’d never actually tried it before. The ‘weird globbing’ it uses is regular expressions, which are worth learning how to use. Run grep "$expression" $_tmpfile where $expression is a line from your exclude file to see which files it’s going to match and exclude.

I don’t know what fd does, but at a guess maybe what you’re missing is that tar includes all the files in directories you give it? So if you exclude ‘foo/bar’ but include ‘foo’ then foo/bar will be in your tar file.

What I do is basically tar cf `ls ~ | grep -v $files_to_exclude` but if you want to exclude something that isn’t a top-level directory you’d need to get slightly more fancy.

Suddenly I’m worried about AI’s energy draw. “6 percent of global electricity” is not a small amount of electricity.

The model year and other relevant info is found in the first part of the VIN. There’s no legit reason for it to demand the whole thing, which it does.

I have no data on that. Cheaper and easier to get tlds like .world might be the most dangerous of all.

Ah, so chimps are monkeys in the same way that whales are fish.

Can someone explain for the non-biologists? I never heard of chimps being classified as monkeys.

If it’s that bad, could you maybe give people a hint as to why we’d want to watch it and what it has to do with linux?

They’re probably just as dangerous as .com sites.

If we’re including television I’m disappointed that nobody mentioned Blackadder.

If not, Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Anachronism means something else, especially with respect to movies.

Guess I should’ve gone with “Academic? It doesn’t even cover ancient Greece.”

Academic? History of the World Part I? I guess you could say it has about as much academic rigour as the average Mel Brooks movie.

Sure, the project is already bloated with so much complexity that what’s the harm in adding a little more? If you’re genuinely confused about it, see the entire rest of the Internet for details.

It has some advantages. It can be configured with simple text files and normal filesystem permissions. The sshd code is mature and has a proven record of good security. It doesn’t add yet another thing to systemd that has no business being part of systemd.

You should really be more specific. All of them have more content than netflix hulu vudu and prime video combined.

[false claims that] journalists gave the recent PS5 game Stellar Blade (pictured below) bad reviews because its female characters are too hot

That seems an inadequate way of summing up the Stellar Blade controversy which on the whole was considerably more ridiculous than that.
