recently someone posted a book that detailed how to build #floppies from scratch (including the ferrofluid etc.) I thought I had saved or boosted it, but apparently not. Unfortunately I can't remember the exact title, maybe @nina_kali_nina knows? In general the book was talking about magnetic storage, and was from the 80's (I think). Please boost.
EDIT:
Found it thanks to @vaporeon_ and @gloriouscow , it's "Magnetic Recording, Volume 1".
The Debian project started in 1993 and celebrates its birthday on August 16th of each year: Debian Day. This year we'll have at least 19 gatherings in 3 continents; c u there! #Debian #Debian33years #DebianDay #DebianDay2026
Is there a way to quit `less`, in linux, such that it leaves the current output on the screen. Like I `less` through a file, I find in the file an example of a command that I want to run. I quit. The screen blanks completely and now I'm back at a prompt, but the thing I need to type into the prompt is gone. On some systems `less` just leaves its current display up and scrolls up one line for the prompt. But not on this system. Why.
Also: Same question but vi.
EDIT: See answer in next post.

Trans people aren't important to the government, please do say that out louder for everyone to observe please. I hope the government can stop their facade of caring for queer rights and just straight up say they would rather we all stop existing.
Fuck you.

The Solicitor said that the new amendment has taken away the concept of self-assessment as it was leading to problems. "Suppose I am a biological man, and I think I am a woman and get a TG card, and suppose I start using the ladies' toilet...this is happening," SG said.
