Option-Shift-Hyphen. Just --- only works when you have the text replacement thing on (the same thing that turns (C) into ©).

That sample was complete though as long as there wasn't too many tweets. I.e, as long as your query was specific enough, you _did_ get all tweets.

Why does it have to have a chat interface? What's wrong with entering airports in different fields? I'm not convinced it's needed for a "routine trip" feature, you could just have some sort of bookmark feature..

You uninstall all snaps, uninstall snapd, and block it from being installed via APT. Then you add e.g. the mozilla PPA such that its firefox package gets installed instead.

You can do that if you want to. It'll just be slower.

As a Mac user, your best bet is probably X-Plane. There's only a few short tutorials, but given your history you should have no issues :)

Well in a sense you are right that it is lazy, in that it would be quite a lot of work to disentangle those parts. So they could probably do it, but it would be costly, while just releasing the TF2 code is basically free.

Only technically. By that name, yes, but much of Markdown was "discovered" rather than invented, having been used in email/newsgroups/... for a long time.

The point they're trying to make, I think, is: Black/Ruff format, or any other formatter necessarily need to operate on universal rules. In context, sometimes these rules don't make sense. I still would love some kind of stat

I think ripgrep specifically is counted in the comment you reply to as a tool that _does_ do one thing well, and that one should use it (or grep) in combination with an ls, instead of giving ls filtering abilities.

While I agree with this project being a bad idea, both 1 and 2 are addressed by HTMX itself, via hx-preserve and Out-Of-Bounds swaps.

Huh? Messing with the system Python install absolutely can break your system. Just use venvs, or install separate Python versions for development e.g. via pyenv. You likely don't want to use the relatively outdated Python version shipp

It's saying "modern, maintained", implying that ls is either not maintained (wrong), or ls is not modern (can be argued to be true). Only one of those two properties need to hold for the entire label to fit.

Likewise. I _did_ sell those stellar tokens they gave to (longtime?) users for about 50 bucks though, before deleting my account.
