Yes you have seen it correctly, I'm now including __links__ the sh & console based browser, in my workflow, since it uses few resources, doesn't understand many of the modern languages, which results in pleasure and fun on the internet. You can even use links on a serial console like my Wyse terminal!
An Adblock is not need in this modus operandi.
The places which are properly coded, do not need even JavaScript are where I frequently get my information from

This Saturday as part of the Everyday Algorithms exhibition: Reimagine your relationship with machines in this workshop to produce queer love letters using Bash scripting with @siusoon and Mara Karagianni. 
Saturday 5 April
12pm — 3pm
The NewBridge Project, #Newcastle upon Tyne, NE2 1AL
This workshop aims to challenge the gender norms in free software development. We will begin with a cultural introduction to Unix and #Bash, exploring how they interact with the operating system. Bash, a command line interface and scripting language created in 1989 for UNIX Systems, is useful for system administration and automation. 
During the workshop, you will use the terminal, either in pairs, in groups, or individually, to write and create a #queer love letter in Bash. These letters will explore various forms of desire, intimacy, and struggle, allowing us to reimagine what our relationship with the machines we use might look like. 
Free, booking is essential: https://thenewbridgeproject.com/events/introducing-bash/
man7.org is an invaluable resource for Linux users, providing comprehensive and up-to-date man pages with clear, detailed explanations of commands and system tools. It’s a must-visit for anyone working in the terminal, and the effort put in by the curator is truly appreciated. A huge thank you for keeping this gem running!

Matrix Räume in Synapse aufräumen – einfach automatisiert

It's super annoying that #macOS has much, much fewer customization options than #KDE Plasma. Even a simple option like enabling wrapping around the virtual desks ("spaces") is not available, and the only way to enable that is to pay for a third-party app.
CLI is a better world. I installed the latest version of #Bash via #Homebrew. Now I can use all my Bash scripts.
It's possible you've not heard of #boxyBSD
I was lucky to get a TIL moment when @stefano boosted it's existence into my feed.
However you should know about it, learn something about the user perspective from proxmox in the process, while working with a boxyBSD VM.
Here are some nice screencaps of the boxyBSD site so you can ask nicely for a VM and learn to play with one of the *BSD flavours from a distance.
I'm sure you can duckduckgo the address of boxyBSD when you analyze the screencaps, right?
#bash #proxyLB #freeBSD #boxyBSD #sh #zsh #ksh #csh #netBSD #openBSD #POSIX #proxmox #loadbalancer
I am a fan of #golang. I don't say it enough. My love of #python, #bash, and #BASIC, I wear on my sleeve, but among the many other languages I code in, I almost always appreciate an opportunity to use Go. It just clicked for me in a way rust never did.
(Obligatory disclaimer upon realizing the date that this is not an April Fools post.)
It has arrived. proxyLB v1.1.0 the loadbalancer for proxmox clusters. Instead of telling you the features of this major version I invite you to read about it yourself, download proxyLB then play with it.
As with any great Open Source project, this has grown out of a necessity that @gyptazy has for his other amazing project boxyBSD, which just needs a versatile tool like this.
Now go and play.

#Bash's ctrl-o timesaver, 20241223,
by Thoma K,

... wonder if that is available in (plain) zsh via key bindings ...
Does anyone have a good recommendation for shell/bash script replacements in 2025?
Thinking maybe guile?
Today in bash :
$date --date='-1 month' +"%Y%m%d"
20250303
That is because 31 Feb is not a valid date.
$dateutils.dadd today -1mo -f "%Y%m%d"
20250228
That works!
Bashing vs. Building
Collectively, do we like reading stories about bashing people or things?
Or do we liking reading articles that build new ways?

Mal wieder so ein unverzichtbarer #Talk auf den #CLT, bei dem man auch nach 20 Jahren #GNU/Linux noch inspirierendes Neues entdeckt.
I am in urgent job search mode, so I'm gonna throw this out here and see if anything comes of it.
I am a #Canadian, fluent in both #English and #French. I have experience with several programming languages. My strongest proficiency is with #Haskell and #C. I also have a reasonable grasp of #HTML, #JavaScript, #SQL, #Python, #Lua, #Linux system administration, #bash scripting, #Perl, #AWK, some #Lisp (common, scheme, and emacs), and probably several others I've forgotten to mention.
I am not necessarily looking for something in tech. I just need something stable. I have done everything from software development, to customer support, to factory work, though my current circumstances make in-person work more difficult than remote work. I have been regarded as a hard worker in every job I have ever held.
TIL The bash $TMOUT variable. That solves the spooky mystery of disappearing tmux tabs on production machines.
