Thanks for sharing. That was wild... You probably have more tabs than I have bookmarks.

Interesting. I still don't think I could use that workflow. I use bookmarks, and the dropdowns in the bookmark toolbar when I need to organize links into groupings. And even then I only keep the necessary dropdowns in my list. Everything else I organize by bookmark folders and subfolders.

What? Even 500 tabs? I don't understand this. I get about 10 open and I can't read what they are. Please share a pic of what it has to look like with that many tabs open because I totally do not get this? I feel like this would be akin to asking "I can't see out of my car windshield because I have completely covered it with sticky notes. How can I get to where I need to go?" This is not how browsers were designed to work.

Same. I also have an old Backbox distro that I used daily for years and every once in a while fire it back up for shits and giggles.

It will also keep you from rolling out of bed at night.

Lemmy seems a lot less toxic than Reddit.

Not sure I am seeing the same. I posted a message about a bash command yesterday and it was almost immediately downvoted. And I have no idea why since it should work for what the person asking wanted/needed. That was one of my big issues with reddit was the sheer negativity that came out of that site and I know I am talking about a single downvote here, but it makes me pause. It has happened more than this one time which is why I get that feeling. I think some people really need to revisit the use of the downvote.

FYI, you don't need to either on linux. Look up sudo.

Don't forget things like locking everyone into their ecosystem. Case in point, Minecraft. On the pc using Bedrock I can connect to any server. Xbox and Nintendo versions I know for a fact you can only connect to approved servers. Not sure about the PS version, but I would venture it's similar. So why would I want to limit myself by playing their locked down copy of the exact same game?

Maybe a little primitive, but I copy my .bash_history file to a folder with a dated name every afternoon using a cron job. Then I can just grep that for commands I know I ran in the past. 'sort -fu' will remove the duplicates in the results.

No worries. I thought it was funny.

Must have been Bush... I think the word you were looking for was precedent.

That's exactly how I ended up with a steam account. Bought a Civ V cd and the game isn't on the cd, just an installer for steam and a key.
