Hell, my docker compose alias is a function now because I can't be assed to cd to my compose folder before running compose, and wanted to be able to still choose if I -d and/or what containers I wanted to start/stop.

So this is why alias in fish are literally functions...

These people are a critical part of the computer ecosystem. Without them, no one would use any settings other than the default. We may not have yet discovered the dark theme.

Good meme.

postman hands him card reader, he instantly asks where the settings are

This is awesome XD

"Bro this screen is too bright, is there a dark mode?"

every command he runs is an alias

Okay thats me. I love my aliases, I store them in separate files in ~/.config/fish/conf.d

postman hands him card reader

I'm not getting it. I guess I don't interact with postmen enough, because I have no idea how a card reader is related to mail delivery.

Perhaps it's about payment-on-delivery.

Pretty usual in Slovakia, though you'll be generally charged some extra for not paying in advance. Usually something like €1.

Idk, but it could be because the payment of the delivery is done 'via surname' to the postman when the package is handed over. So the bank can't track on what you spend your money on (in case you are afraid they do). This option exists at least in Germany. However, it costs an high extra fee.

I dont think we do that in germany, shipping is always paid in advance

Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (3 replies)

It's called "per Nachnahme", C.O.D. in English. You'd pay the postman for your parcel and the post office would pay the sender. It used to be quite popular in pre internet days. You whippersnappers wouldn't remember. Not used a lot any more these days.

Interesting, never had this

crater2150@feddit.de · 3 pts · 2y

In my experience, if a seller in Germany offers that option, it's 5 - 6€ extra, I don't know anyone that ever used that service. Probably was more common before online payment was easy.

Now do the “purist” that spends their entire life trying to strip everything possible off to “save memory” when they should probably just use Alpine or NetBSD.

I personally do most of my heavy scripting in python

baseless_discourse@mander.xyz · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Python is great for scripting, but the advantages of nu and powershell are the ease of interacting with system utilities and the availability of common commands like ls etc.

of course, you can always do subprocess.run or os.listdir(), but that is not as simple as scripting in nu or powershell.

Lightfire228@pawb.social · 2 pts · 2y

This is true

Although, i find this isn't as much an issue if you use python's STL as much as you can

Pathlib and shutil are really handy for file manips

But, yea interfacing with external CLI utilities like git is a PITA

Oh there's also xonsh which is just a shell built put of python
