  • We are same. I sometimes use comments as kind of tags, like

    xinput --disable $(xinput --list | grep -i touchpad | grep 'id=[0-9]\+' -o | cut -d= -f2)  # Disable synaptic touchpad trackpad pointer
    

    or

    python3 -c 'from ctypes import *; X11 = cdll.LoadLibrary("libX11.so.6"); X11.XOpenDisplay.restype = POINTER(c_ubyte); display = X11.XOpenDisplay(None); X11.XkbLockModifiers(display, c_uint(0x0100), c_uint(2), c_uint(0)); X11.XCloseDisplay(display)' # swap caps CAPS CAPSLOCK
    

    or sometimes I’ll add # works at the end of a long string of attempts (usually involving dialing into a regexp), like

    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Eow '\d'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Eow '(\d)'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -ow '(\d)'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -o '(\d)'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep '1920x1080'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -o '1920x1080'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -o '\d920x1080'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Po '\d920x1080'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Po '\d+x1080'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Po '\d+x\d+'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Po '(\d+x\d+)'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Po '(\d+x\d+) pixels'
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Po '(\d+x\d+) pixels'|cut
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Po '(\d+x\d+) pixels'|cut -f1
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Po '(\d+x\d+) pixels'|cut -d\ -f1
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Po '(\d+x\d+) pixels'|cut -d'' -f1
    scrot --quality 1 --compression 0 --format jpg - | convert -scale 10% -scale 1000% -quality 100 - RGB:- | i3lock --image /dev/stdin --raw 3840x1818:rgb --nofork
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Po '(\d+x\d+) pixels'|cut -d' ' -f1
    xdpyinfo|grep dimensions|grep -Po '(\d+x\d+) pixels'|cut -d' ' -f1 # works
    












  • Maybe the term is being taken over by eco-fascists, but I’ve considered myself an anti-natalist for many years and I’m only playfully misanthropic.

    I don’t go in for the Malthusian claptrap. I just think it’s more ethical to adopt an existing, actual real child rather than make a brand new one. I think this is a really really compelling point, and I wish more parents would seriously consider it before choosing to follow their biological imperative.

    It’s like with nihilism, where everyone agrees life is ultimately meaningless, but some people are real babies about it (pun intended).
