    !TIL You can tell pacaur which binary to use (instead of pacman) via the $PACMAN environment variable. That means you can seemlessly have it call pacsrv instead or pacman in the background: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/3m0iu8/ihave3computersrunningarchistherea/cvbbpoh/

    #TIL (I guess) that it became no longer practised in speaking the German language to trill the 'r' sound because Hitler had a tendency to do so. Could have sworn that it was phased out of spoken German west of Prussia long before that but hey.

    !til that I can use Chromium with Firefox's Library (the bookmarking tool): just drag a URL from Chromium into Library, and it will create a bookmark, even picking up the document title. This is a big time saver for me! (It works more-or-less with Epiphany, too, but the title doesn't come across.) #browsing #bookmarking

    !til about lemon market - when a buyer is uninformed or has no means to know about the quality of a product he/she is more willing to pay only the average price of a high quality product (peach) and a low quality product (lemon). This drives away high quality good producers and results in a market of inferior quality products (lemon market)
