Do you realize that you can pay 0% if you pay a card in full, and still get the reward?

Why are you trying to take something away from me just because you’re terrible with money?

Say goodbye to rewards cards if this happens.

LLMs need to get better at saying “I don’t know.” I would rather an LLM admit that it doesn’t know the answer instead of making up a bunch of bullshit and trying to convince me that it knows what it’s talking about.

Let’s use Tor Browser as an example since that’s one of the programs that typically gets installed with a tarball. Once you’ve downloaded and extracted the tarball, you’ll want to navigate to the extracted files. You can do this in the terminal using CD commands, but I think it’s easier and a little more intuitive to just use your file manager and navigate to the folder that way. Once you’re in the correct folder, you’ll want to right click on an empty space and select “open and terminal.” Now you’ll have a terminal open and it will already be in the correct directory. From here you’ll want to run the “start-tor-browser.desktop” script. To do this, simply type ./start-tor-browser.desktop and you’ll be able to follow along from there.

Running programs from a Tar image typically involves running a script. You just have to change the name of the script to match whatever they have in the directory. Auto complete is your friend here. You don’t have to actually type the entire name of the script, you only need to type the first few letters and then hit tab.

A tar file is similar to a ZIP file. The easiest way to uncompress them is by using your file manager and right clicking.

Problem is is that is that too many people insist on doing things the Windows way and they get frustrated because of it. For example, instead of going to the software center, they choose to download their programs from a website, even though that’s not how you’re supposed to do it most of the time. They’ll also spend hours trying to get Windows only programs to run, when there are alternatives available that work just as well.

Following in porn’s footsteps I see. Can’t pause a video without getting an ad shoved in front of your face.

Every time I see that “this incident will be reported” message, I picture some poor schmuck in a cubicle getting pulled into the boss’s office and interrogated for two hours about why they tried to run a command as sudo.

One thing I’ve noticed is that it pretty much always takes two days to deliver your items. The only difference is that Amazon will let your order sit in their warehouse for a few extra days if you don’t have Prime.
