Right. Yeah I didn’t engage my brain on the & initially as i thought it was just a typo. But that should work, seems others on the internet think the same.
I like ‘exec startx’, but really if someone has physical access, unless you are doing a lot of other security, you can’t be safe.
If you switch to the VT with Ctrl-Alt-F1, and hit ctrl-z the process is suspended, but does not complete so it never gets to the exit.
At least that is my suspicion. I’m going to try it when I’m in front of a machine.
Joke’s on you. Ctrl-Alt-F1 Ctrl-z.
Vic 20 was my first. I watched my dad struggle with and eventually give up on assembly. Something-something and the microbots. I was fearful of it until I took Assembly at Uni. That 2nd/3rd year class was where the final puzzle piece of how computers work fell in place for me.
My first job was writing assembly tests for a DSP hardware design team. Fell in love. Never looked back.
Sorry my pronunciation guide was unclear, she pronounced it “correctly” my “doh” being in the classical homer-simpson sound. Not much difference in god-oh vs. ga-doh, just slight emphasis shift. Good video, however, thanks.
I just about made my wife pee laughing at me.
Me, reads post, feeling it speaking directly to me, but never having put absurdism direclty in front of me, despite my absolute die-hard adherence to it. “Waiting for Godot”, huh wonder of the "Godot "(in my head pronounced go-dot) game engine.
Ask wife, Have you ever read “Waiting for go-dot”…
“You mean, waiting for gah-doh”
“Oh-shit…”
I’d heard of the play, with the correct pronunciation, but never put it together in my head.
Anyway, I’m off to find more defined absurdism. Thanks for this so that I could get it out of the way with my wife and not in front of regular humans.

No one was able to replicate the level of health complications from the movie. Apparently he was a raging alcoholic.
Alcohol kills. McDonalds is just sorta bad.

If you have seen it. You are happy to watch again. If you haven’t, you will love it.
Just saw that this was downvoted quite a bit. Not sure what the beef was. I seriously haven’t used an alarm clock in like 10-15 years.

Mach as I love Doctorow,Down and Out… was masterpiece and the novels went downhill from there (Easter Std. Tribe was still good, as was Makers)
Haven’t used an alarm in many years. It is something you can train and get better at, just actively tell yourself when you want to wake up. Boom, magic.
If you code adding the current branch to your shell prompt will change your world.
Also, if you are getting good use out of find, you should learn to pipe the output to GNU parallel. Put those cores to work!

A sudden, dramatic shift in the way you process information is probably worth a trip to the neurologist.

Only 2 seasons, but some great interviews.
I’m not sure why you are getting downvoted. I’m optimistic for the same reasons and I think you are right about rapid growth being dangerous.
Linux was slow growth, not to mention GNU, but it is so good, and attracted the right kind of contribuitors.
Running these services has a cost and surely over the time it takes to grow, solutions will emerge. It is best to recognize those challenges and address them.
