Most cli stuff is a lot easier than programming. If you can't use cli then by definition you're a shit programmer.

Of course if you simply don't want to use cli that's a different matter.

Git wasn't the first version control software. I remember using sccs back in 1991 and apparently it was written all the way back in 1972 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source_Code_Control_System

Sounds like somebody's never had to visit Winchester.

No, bangs is a hairstyle. Also "bangs maid" sounds like the third person singular. If you have multiple bangmaids, that would be the correct plural. For the most part the plural form is found by sticking an s on the end.

It was definitely an awesome show but I hated the interlaced format. Every time they skipped from one section to the next they had to reintroduce it and give a "we got this far" segment; it always felt like the show was at least twice as long as it needed to be.

It'd have been so much better (for me at least) if they just focussed on one thing at a time from start to end, especially when one of the experiments was fairly gruesome exploding bits of dead pig or whatever, you could skip over that in its entirety.

But maybe the show was aimed at people with the attention span of a ferret.

Ohh I thought it was something to do with sexy underwear. This actually makes a lot more sense.

I still prefer United States of Moronica.

Yeah you're absolutely right. The solution is to develop a comprehensive approach to blocking all the crap. Initially this can feel a lot like a game of whack-a-mole but it does get a lot better quite quickly.

Where the platform tools fall short you can use other tools to fill in the gaps. I use uBlock Origin for a whole host of stuff but specifically here for blocking posts containing certain keywords. It's not perfect because it also blocks humorous British fart jokes, some card games, and a certain snooker player (Judd) but those might be rectified by extending the syntax somewhat.
