It's not the syntax that's impressive. It's that most people who don't know C, likely wouldn't consider array access to be commutative.

Isn't "Eurydice" Greek, so I would expect it to be pronounced more like [eu̯.ry.dí.kɛː], so nothing remotely similar to "you"?

I know this is not what you want, but actually:

   $ apropos dns
   [...]
   resolvectl (1)       - Resolve domain names, IPV4 and IPv6 addresses, DNS resource records, and services; introspect and reconfigure the DNS resolver
   [...]
   $ man resolvectl
   [...]
     dns [LINK [SERVER...]], domain [LINK [DOMAIN...]], default-route [LINK [BOOL...]], llmnr [LINK [MODE]], mdns [LINK [MODE]], dnssec [LINK [MODE]], dnsovertls [LINK [MODE]], nta [LINK [DOMAIN...]]

           Get/set per-interface DNS configuration. These commands may be used
           to configure various DNS settings for network interfaces. These
           commands may be used to inform systemd-resolved or systemd-networkd
           about per-interface DNS configuration determined through external
           means. The dns command expects IPv4 or IPv6 address specifications
           of DNS servers to use. Each address can optionally take a port
           number separated with ":", a network interface name or index
           separated with "%", and a Server Name Indication (SNI) separated
           with "#". When IPv6 address is specified with a port number, then
           the address must be in the square brackets. That is, the acceptable
           full formats are "111.222.333.444:9953%ifname#example.com" for IPv4
           and "[1111:2222::3333]:9953%ifname#example.com" for IPv6. The
           domain command expects valid DNS domains, possibly prefixed with
           "~", and configures a per-interface search or route-only domain.
           The default-route command expects a boolean parameter, and
           configures whether the link may be used as default route for DNS
           lookups, i.e. if it is suitable for lookups on domains no other
           link explicitly is configured for. The llmnr, mdns, dnssec and
           dnsovertls commands may be used to configure the per-interface
           LLMNR, MulticastDNS, DNSSEC and DNSOverTLS settings. Finally, nta
           command may be used to configure additional per-interface DNSSEC
           NTA domains.

           Commands dns, domain and nta can take a single empty string
           argument to clear their respective value lists.

           For details about these settings, their possible values and their
           effect, see the corresponding settings in systemd.network(5).


   [...]

Not too bad in my opinion. (I didn't actually knew before how to set the DNS server, never needed to do it.)

WSL2 is a different product from WSL1, not a different version. Is WSL3 now a different version of WSL2 or another separate product?

That's maybe, because (I was wrong and) it's LF, but pressing return produces CR, which is differentiable by an application.

Isn't that what the command "apropos" does?

apropos ?

Yes, shame on me. Should have conducted ascii(7) before making bold statements.

Or make them in charge of the servers, then they stop trying to destroy things pretty quickly and start to use their energy for constructive things.

2/3 of German voters(!) were not for Adolf Hitler[1]. Doesn't change the fact they got 1/3 of their country removed for that choice.

I think that is different, alone because the companies still call it "Google" and "Facebook" themself.

Establishing precedent. Uncovering who is with him and who is "the enemy".

Why it just shows what happens on the paper?

> Then you might really like ctrl+k. Go to the middle of the line and it will delete everything from the cursor to the end of the line.

Actually it stands for _K_ill (opposite of _Y_ank), so you can get it back later too. Not sure, if that is also the case on Mac.

The "proper" CUA shortcuts work in the terminal too. (Ctrl/Shift-Ins)

That's because C-J IS ANSI Carriage Return. It's basically the absence of any special treatment.

> In what I would consider to be a fatal regression, GTK 4 just aliases <Control> and <Primary>, leaving the apps to do the work.

Gtk4 makes some many dumb decisions, that I always code new programs against Gtk3. They also deleted so many useful widgets and essentially said "We don't care implement it yourself". I can't afford my programs to become unusable just because they completely lost the plot, so I intend to keep using Gtk3 forever.

> because linux never picks the correct method

Because linux is not an operating system. A specific operating system will have some specific behaviour.

It would fit Prolog. You terminate the program, by proving that it doesn't exist.

There are different kind of arts. There is the art of a craftsmen and there is beautiful art. The former is rarely exhibited in museums unless is also has an historic value. It's the kind of excellence with that you do your work and it can be in fact in every kind of work you do.

A collective of workers in a field can very much decide what they want to get payed for. Craftsmen did exactly that for centuries, and that's in fact what makes them being known for quality and is thus in fact their business moat.

Why would that be unreasonable? Generating some power somewhere, sometime isn't hard. Generating the right amount at the right time in the right location is. (In other words logistics.)

So yeah the cost is in moving and storing the electricity by maintaining and expanding the infrastructure.

A => B or A <=> B ?

He certainly could advice "patriotic" top-level DNS servers to change "a few things".

What makes us sure, that his public statement reflect his opinion?

Depends on you definition of desirable. If the point is that the current enabled us to be existing, then any other state is less desirable simply by the fact that isn't the one that made us existing.

The most detailed and correct map is the territory itself.

> then I don’t see what will stop them from continuing to spread

Speed of light/information, and physical matter.

All the forests in central europe are artificially planted or influenced after the middle ages. Whole of Italy used to be full of woods before the Romans.

Which to be fair, would maybe actually work, and there are political positions that want to achieve such an economic system. Not that I would necessarily agree with them.
