Who knew that getting the parent of the present working directory in a way that you can execute a script from anywheres would be such a pain in BASH.
Maybe I'll just write a tcsh script. -

@moonman @takeshitakenji NakedMud is simultaneously an interesting google search and a good example of this kind of thing in action (used to power a MUD) -

@takeshitakenji @moonman What most games and similar do that take this approach is they build the backend in C/C++ and then wrap a Python or Lua interpreter for game logic. -

@lambadalambda @sonyam @clacke To be fair, most people wonder what Terry is talking about, too. -

@rw @gitgud If anything else matters to you but the quality of the code, you're doing the same bullshit those lot are doing. -

@rw @gitgud That goes for both sides of that proverbial coin. -

@gitgud @rw Is it dead? The same people are still in the same places doing the same things for the most part. Those who seek injury, however, usually find it in ample supply. -

Found out why Thunderbird's so shit. It uses Chrome.
Er, you think a Mozilla thing would use Firefox. -

@clacke @scionicspectre Yeah, I'm sure all those medication resistant bacteria and virii took 10,000 years too :] -

@scionicspectre @clacke The idea that they're static and don't move or change over time is the fundamental error they made, but you can and do taste different things with different parts of your tongue, something you can very easily test right now if you wanted to :) -

@clacke @scionicspectre Youll have different tastes from childhood to adulthood. Let alone the species over 100 years, or more. -

@scionicspectre There's several factors. Body chemistry is one, to be fair. But it is only one, and there are many more.
Try to get any two people to agree on the taste map of the human tongue - they can't. Because it's an old standard based on a generalization that's no longer true, because we've done that whole "evolving as a species" thing in the meantime. Smell and taste are also related, so people with chronic allergies for instance taste very differently.
But there's a lot of it that comes down to undisciplined parents not even trying to get kids to eat things they don't like either - a less diverse pallete perceives differently than a more diverse one.

this has been "May answering a post at length way too seriously" :v -

@archaeme @takeshitakenji @lambadalambda the daemons run constantly in the background. OQM only runs when a user-facing page is run. -

"Until now Windows 10 has allowed users to avoid downloading updates over metered (pay-per-byte) connections, to avoid racking up huge bills. Some users were setting their ethernet/wifi connections as metered in order to prevent Windows 10 from downloading and installing updates without their permission. In its latest preview version of the OS, Microsoft is now forcing some updates necessary for "smooth operation" to download even on these connections. As well as irritating users who want to control when updates download and install, users of expensive pay-per-byte connections could face massive bills."
You have no control over the Windows 10 malware. -

@clacke @sim I think a lot of time we don't realize it until we're invested in the argument, and by then, it looks like we're "giving up" if we back off or cut off the discussion.
Me, I don't care if I do that, because my time is more valuable to me than my reputation in the eyes of people I don't care about, but I can understand not everyone feels the same. -

@sim @clacke Well, if someone isn't engaging you in good faith, trying to understand your position, why would you invest the time in discussing with them?
