@mhoye I’ll dig them out first thing tomorrow. Sorry for the tease (not near the computer)

@mhoye quake3 on a hot key, configured to a given map, skill level, and 5 minute max match length. Fantastic palette cleanser

@mhoye oh another really good one: adjust the key repeat delay interval from the default (in my case reduce it a lot: something like xset r rate 200 30. No idea for wayland). I think that’s Like being bitten by a radioactive spider

@mhoye a keyboard shortcut to change my wallpaper to a random one from a list

New blog post: Linux Mount Namespaces https://jmtd.net/log/mount_namespaces/ #containers #linux

Spent the afternoon digging into the guts of Linux namespaces and… the horror

Bandcamp's new Playlists seem to be Bandcamp's old Playlists, with a new sharing feature. Odd that their new announcement page leads with all the things you can't do with them: https://bandcamp.com/about_playlists; also a bit perplexing that you still can't access them on web at all, mobile app only 🤦‍♂️ #music

One of those evenings (hell, days) where I had the urge to create, but no goddamn spoons to do it

@mhoye I’ve never seen “which” as a built in before. Hmm! I’ve seen “command -v” used as an alternative when “which” isn’t installed. Or is it an alias? (“whatis which”?)

Didn’t realise it was international goth day but wore a NIN shirt by coincidence

And my killfile grows another line longer.

@neil In fact if you’re curious it’s Debian-uk, seeing as you’re both a Debian user and UK based, you might feel at home

@neil I’m still active in one channel and it’s a lovely tonic for all the crap happening elsewhere

@algernon on the basis of the penultimate toot, I’d recommend looking at crm114. But it likely fails the criteria in the toot I’m replying to
