I’m too deep into the android ecosystem, sadly, but if I found a good Linux phone I’d try it.

What problems have you had?

This is like a google voice number? Do they do VoIP and voicemail transcription, because I don’t have a replacement for Google voice yet.

Edit: yes they do voip, voicemail, and transcriptions, but they do not do RCS yet. When they do, I might consider switching, especially if I can use their voicemail for my regular number, like gv.

JMP does not (yet) support these features:

• RCS, which allows for video calls over the phone network.

That’s funny, I never use 1 and 2, but I use 3 often.

I used to use tap to pay, but I recently acquired one of those adhesive credit card holders that has obviated my need for to pay.

I have an old car and just have my phone in a holder if I need to see turn by turn directions. Unfortunately the credit card holder fucks with the phone stand a little bit, but it mostly still works. The few times in my life I used android auto I disliked it.

I most often use voice assistant to ask for a song to play on Spotify. This was really convenient with “hey google” while I was driving or had my phone in my pocket listening to headphones, but I live without it these days.

I would second kubuntu as I use it daily, but I don’t mind the snaps.

What is ros

Thanks I hate it

He used to be fun… Like 25 years ago

He’s gotten a lot better

Thanks for the explanation, I was wondering if it had to do with CPU cycles.

I guess I’ll continue to use cat for short files to sdout and less for longer files, if there is no actual repercussion. It’s just such a common “don’t do this” topic I was wondering if there was a good reason not to.

I think the beer in the “wrong” glass might be an apt metaphor – it might be fancier to use a specific glass, knowing the history, appreciating the golden color of the beer, (it might also affect the head on the pour? Idk) but there is also nothing wrong with drinking it out of a normal glass.

Edit: I’ve never used view, but I have a distant memory of once using more instead of less.

I guess I still don’t understand why?

The end result is that the contents of the file ends up in the STDOUT.

For your other examples, if you use a hammer to push a screw into wood, it won’t be secure and it damages the wood. Using a board to drive a dowel through a plank might work in a pinch, but it is easier to use a hammer.

What is the bad thing that happens if you use cat for its side effect rather than to concatenate?

Why would you do “less -F <file>” when “cat <file>” is easier to type, and reminds you of cats?

Is this the same as BtrFS?

That high school was nothing like what was depicted in Grease.

I still like Ubuntu, as long as everything works, I recommend getting the LTS release.

The models seem to be getting worse at this one task?

I used to like kexp song of the day but they changed the format.

Let me know if any of these have ads I’m pretty sure they all don’t.

I remember touch

Screen is great! My favorite though is byobu, a pretty screen

IIRC they warn people not to use recovery emails if they’re concerned about leaking information, idk why though
