Noxy

is nobody going to define what “runbacks” are?

I’m guessing it’s something like when you lose to a boss you have to travel a senselessly difficult and long way back to the boss to try again?

That does sound annoying and I hate when I even have to sit through a cutscene on each retry of a boss…

UGH YEP

me with Satisfactory

and maybe now Space Station 14 - nah that game is definitely still fun, a multiplayer experience like no others (well, like 13 I guess)

why the negativity about masturbation? even jokingly, it’s reinforcing a bullshit guilt that we should be trying to eliminate, not reinforce

wow you have a degree I’m soooooo impressed

I don’t quite understand this post. Is it saying that LCD panels suffer much more severe burn-in than OLED over a longer time period?

You didn’t seem to be ashamed of admitting to asking an LLM a question as if it was helpful, wise, or respectable for you to have done. You should be.

LLM is saying…

Stop. Nothing at all past those three words is worth a damn.

Following the openbsd example from the original comment I replied to, it has absolutely nothing to say about what brackets mean, so this advice would not be helpful for an openbsd system: https://man.openbsd.org/man

On my personal linux system (arch derivative, by the way), it at least mentions brackets meaning optional, but only in the context of arguments:

   [-abc]             any or all arguments within [ ] are optional.

I think this would trip up some new users. The destination, with or without the username to connect as, may not seem like an “argument” to a new user since it doesn’t have a dash before it like the example does

No worries, didn’t feel demeaned but wanted to be clear that it was an attempt to try to ignore ~23 years of ssh muscle memory to try to guess what might trip up a new Linux user

Very much true in my case - I couldn’t explain what the, like… “idiomatic” meaning of those brackets is, I only guess from context and experience, and it remains a minor peeve of mine that such symbology is widely used but rarely explained

I do a lot of couch gaming. I do have a wired lapboard for keyboard and mouse but it’s nice relaxing with a gamepad too

I’ve been using ssh for decades, you don’t have to explain it to me. It was a purely contrived example to simulate what I think a new user might experience if faced with that particular man page as their only documentation.

BS. I’ve been using linux for over 20 years and I still don’t know what those mean. I can only guess from context. It’s a stupid convention to just use symbols like that and never explain it.

From what I’m reading they are not independent buttons though. They can only be copies of other buttons. Utterly useless.

ssh connects and logs into the specified destination, which may be specified as either [user@]hostname or a URI of the form ssh://[user@]hostname[:port]

ssh [admin@]192.168.1.1
ssh: Could not resolve hostname ]192.168.1.1: No address associated with hostname

That’s how I would interpret that part of the man page had I no familiarity with ssh. It doesn’t seem reasonable to expect the reader to know what those brackets mean.

L4/R4: slow down or speedup time R5: move screen faster, also hold down to select multiple L5: something to do with the touchscreen but I don’t use it

and I say yes, without caveats.

Yeah! I use mine as a media device sometimes. With the first party dock. And with KDE Connect on my phone already since I use KDE on both my work and personal machines, adding the Steam Deck to that works so incredibly well for remote input

Totally stock controls, dozens of hours. Works really really well!
