Eugene :emacs: :freebsd:I'm daily using FreeBSD and Gentoo with "-systemd" global use flag, so I didn't closely watch to the latest news from the Linux world.But, really?! They removing text logs from /var/log?? I bet, at 2026 there will be binary database for configuration instead of text files in /etc/ and /usr/local/etc/ 😁<a href="https://messydesk.social/@robey/113689392683044802" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://messydesk.social/@robey/113689392683044802</a><a href="https://mas.to/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Gentoo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gentoo</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/UnixPhilosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UnixPhilosophy</a>

FrugalGamerRecently I switched from the default keyboard on my Android phone to Simple Keyboard from the F-Droid app. It doesn't have autocorrect, word suggestions, swiping/gesture support, or spyware. I originally switched for privacy reasons, but I've noticed that my frustration with phone typing has gone down drastically. I was always struggling against autocorrect to not replace the wrong thing, and the auto capitalization and such never allowed me to develop any skill in typing precisely. I'm much slower in typing now, but I feel so much more in control of the experience. <a href="https://snug.moe/tags/android" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#android</a> <a href="https://snug.moe/tags/fdroid" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fdroid</a> <a href="https://snug.moe/tags/foss" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#foss</a> <a href="https://snug.moe/tags/unixphilosophy" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#unixphilosophy</a> <a href="https://snug.moe/tags/typing" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#typing</a>

Deep insights into OS design and general UI design from a user/programmer perspective. Deceptive in its easy conversational style, very substantial in its actual insights. <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/UnixPhilosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UnixPhilosophy</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/MikeGancarz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MikeGancarz</a>

awdIt's hard to state how much these 300 odd pages have not only shaped the software I've written, systems I've developed, and the career I've had so far, but what increasingly seems to be a large part of my personality. 🤣<a href="https://techhub.social/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#introduction</a><a href="https://techhub.social/tags/unix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#unix</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/unixphilosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#unixphilosophy</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/@robpike" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@robpike</a>

Wayne Werner<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ed</a> is the standard editor. I'm <a href="https://www.gnu.org/fun/jokes/ed-msg.en.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.gnu.org/fun/jokes/ed-msg.en.html</a> was the actual man page for ed years old.From what I understand, grep is from the ed `g/re/p` pattern - g for global, re being your regex, and p being print. Fun times!Well, ed only operated on actual files, but there was a need to do the same thing but for streams. And wouldn't you know it, the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/UnixPhilosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UnixPhilosophy</a> pops up again: let's call the program `sed` for Stream ed!In my case, I only want to display the first block of matches.
