  • I have studiously avoided learning any bash scripting for the 17 years I’ve used Linux, so all I can say is good job! Actually just today I found a command that I needed to get a certain appimage to run without crashing, and I remembered enough that I was able to make it into a script (I struggle with whether it’s !# or #!). Having just done it today, I can confirm you don’t need to include ‘/bin/bash’, just FYI. I believe that is assumed.

    Yeah the decline of union membership is what I feel really limits working class political power in the US. We’ve basically ceded all our power (I understand the reasons are not so simple), and our concept of solidarity. I don’t know how we can really build any persistent (and effective) movement without organized labor.












  • It’s good that you know what you desire and value. It might help you to understand that many (most?) people do not consider small talk to be dishonest in any way. Think of it like this: I see someone who sparks my interest and I want to get to know them better. Let’s say I walk straight up to them and say “I saw you and you sparked my interest, and I’d like to get to know you better.” OK, well what comes next? How do you get to know someone (total stranger) better? It’s going to involve talking about random stuff until (hopefully) you both end up feeling comfortable with each other. The other thing is about that first part (“I saw you/wanna get to know you”) is heavily implied by you walking over and saying hello.
