Do you get output if you use that exact tail command without the grep pipe?

Wow!

I’m guessing that WordPress will be forked soon …

I read that you’re manually tagging them, so your process can be whatever you want to do.

For example, you can leave the images in their current folder structure and create a separate folder structure with symbolic links to an image, so in the character folder would be symbolic links to all the images like that. They also don’t have to be unique, an image can be in multiple categories.

Alternatively you can use a spreadsheet and generate lists there.

Finally there are plenty of photo album applications that allow you to tag images.

Walk into an Apple store and show the genius at the bar …

Your modem will likely keep connection statistics which will tell you how much data was downloaded and uploaded.

Ookla speedtest.net will give you an indication of your network speed. I have a cron job that logs the speed with their cli client every 5 hours and I use it to keep my ISP mostly honest.

The resulting data can also be used to map peak network congestion so you don’t end up with network buffering issues when you are watching the latest episode on your favourite streaming service.

Next step: Apple removes hardware from box and ships aspiration only.

It absolutely is.

It’s possibly also how they’ll get broken up by the DoJ.

I think that every single provider tracks your activity and the vast majority of them use it to optimise their service income from you, either by giving you better engagement, ie. making you use the service more - endless searching for content for example, or by selling the captured tracking data to the highest bidder.

I experienced this crazy onslaught of advertising to the point of reducing how much I watched YouTube. I was pretty upset and not at all inclined to pay, especially since YouTube was even putting ads on my own videos without me seeing a single cent, because my channel is too small.

Then my partner bought me a few months of a Premium Subscription as a Christmas gift.

It was pointed out to me that I watched more YouTube than any other streaming service which I was paying for.

Combined with background music on mobile, it’s changed my life.

I’m still unimpressed with the business model, but the alternative is so far worse.

Find me a self publishing video platform with the reach of YouTube that doesn’t require self hosting and I’ll happily move my content there.

You could use a cron job to grep through the file and reformat the output into a webpage, markdown, or plain-text file.

A.I., Assumed Intelligence

Bruce Perens is currently working on a new licensing model called Post Open requiring that business with sufficient revenue to pay up.

In my opinion it’s criminal just how often this happens. Big business making obscene profit off the back of volunteer work like yours and many others across the OSS community.

A.I. or Assumed Intelligence

So, a profitable half and the one that will go bankrupt?

It’s staggering to me the number of black cars being sold in hot countries like Australia. Not to mention just how hard they are to see against the background of a bitumen road.

My first recommendation is to become familiar with one flavour of Linux. Debian is a solid choice and it will give you a good understanding of how a great many derivatives operate.

The command line is a tool to get things done, it’s not an end to itself. Some things are easier to do with a GUI, many things are easier to do with the command line interface or CLI.

Many Linux tools are tiny things that take an input, process it and produce an output. You can string these commands together to achieve things that are complex with a GUI.

Manipulation of text is a big part of this. Converting things, extracting or filtering data, counting words

For example, how many times do you use the words “just” and “simply” in the articles you write?

grep -oiwE "just|simple" *.txt | sort | uniq -c

That checks all the text files in a directory for the occurrence of either word and shows you how many occurred and what capitalisation they used.

In other words, learning to use the CLI is about solving problems, one by one, until you don’t have to look things up before you understand why or how it works.

Yeah, good luck with that. In Australia they stopped paying and now the media organisations that relied on this income are pretty much stuffed.

This reads like an ignorant rant about a transient fault at Google.

I had a Mac Mini as a media centre before I had an Apple TV.

Purposely bought a server model that fried both its drives, never to be seen again. It was not a happy experience, or one that I’d recommend.

The UI alone required both keyboard and mouse, you’re forever dealing with on-screen alerts, none of the software is really intended for full screen use 100% if the time, etc.

On the plus side, you can have an on screen clock all the time if you want, something I’ve never achieved with the Apple TV.
