    “I use Linux as my operating system,” I state proudly to the unkempt, bearded man. He swivels around in his desk chair with a devilish gleam in his eyes, ready to mansplain with extreme precision. “Actually”, he says with a grin, "Linux is just the kernel. You use GNU+Linux!’ I don’t miss a beat and reply with a smirk, “I use Alpine, a distro that doesn’t include the GNU Coreutils, or any other GNU code. It’s Linux, but it’s not GNU+Linux.”

    The smile quickly drops from the man’s face. His body begins convulsing and he foams at the mouth and drops to the floor with a sickly thud. As he writhes around he screams “I-IT WAS COMPILED WITH GCC! THAT MEANS IT’S STILL GNU!” Coolly, I reply “If windows were compiled with GCC, would that make it GNU?” I interrupt his response with “-and work is being made on the kernel to make it more compiler-agnostic. Even if you were correct, you won’t be for long.”

    With a sickly wheeze, the last of the man’s life is ejected from his body. He lies on the floor, cold and limp. I’ve womansplained him to death.













  • This seems like a bit of a scam:
    On your external drives you can prevent the creation of .DS_Store

    defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores -bool true
    defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteUSBStores -bool true
    

    If you really want to continuously delete DS_Store from both your internal and external hard drives you can set up a cronjob:

    15 1 * * * root find / -name '.DS_Store' -type f -delete
    






  • I really like Alien: Covenant. Micheal Fassbender is fantastic in that movie.
    Awesome cinematography, awesome vibe, awesome creatures and Aliens, and a fantastic ending.\

    It’s my second favorite Alien movie.
    Okay, thanks to that statement the flamethrowers are gonna come out; let me explain:

    1. Alien is a nigh untouchable masterpiece.
    2. Alien: Covenant
    3. Aliens is a good movie. I don’t quiet like it as much as an Alien-Movie and also am generally not that big of a fan as quite a lot of people seem to be.
    4. Alien Romulus. Okay, nice movie I guess. The are some plot holes like: How do they know Ridley threw the Xenomorph out of the airlock? She is still in Cryosleep. But generally quite enjoyable. Jumping Facehuggers are a nice touch.
    5. Prometheus. I also don’t dislike this one. Even though they got lost in the weeds on this one a bit.
    6. ……
    7. ……
    8. ……
    9. Alien 3: Bad.
    10. Alien Resurrection: Utter Garbag.
