Its perfect code. It needs no updates. Ignore the open issues about it crashing on startup.



Are split peas and chickpeas not beans?

This is 90s thinking. Why must terminal emulators only be text and only do things that a physical terminal could?

I keep trying to imagine what abandoning TTY interfaces in Linux would look like and I can’t comprehend the rework that would be required. It’s so fundamentally different.

For example, how would the SSH protocol work? How would that be compatible? Would we have to abandon SSH or always X forward?

There is definitely a pressure to extend beyond standard TTY. Tmux captures mouse action and has a window management system. fish shell has autocomplete. But both of these still use the same medium of text.

I may simply lack imagination.

TIL viu exists.

I think the issue fundamentally is that this isn’t what terminal emulators are. The terminal emulator initializes a TTY session and enters a shell environment (sh, zsh, fish, etc). The medium is text and cannot be anything else.

Begin able to view images in the terminal would be amazing alone - just like you can cat a text file. I would hate to need to launch a GUI program every time I wanted to see what was inside a text file but that is exactly what I need to do for images or PDFs.

Would be convenient. There are things like neofetch’s backend capabilities that magically embeds images, but I don’t know how it works and it might not be scalable.

Being able to collapse the output of a command would be nice as well.

Skill issue. Pipe your output to something (like a file or the “less” command)

How would you optimize 9/11?

In a perfect world no one would pirate video games. So I guess this is more of a realistic compromise.

In a perfect world:

1. Game publisher release Game with DRM

2. DRM gets cracked by pirates

3. Game publisher acknowledges the DRM has been cracked and compiles a new binary without DRM and redistributes it to customers.

TIL neofetch came out in 2015. I just assumed it was one of those packages that existed since the dawn of computers

The big common ones are i3, Hyprland, or Awesome. However, there are tons out there and there is no right answers.

But also liked when linux felt like a secret.

Don’t worry. You can still tap into that sweet sweet Linux elitism by running an Arch based system or a tiling window manager.

All future articles regarding things the executive branch does will go from “Biden did X” to “The Biden-Harris Administration did X”

Yeah but that’s what we want Skub to do. That’s the whole point of using Skub.
