Lol, of course not.

... my cutting hammers are in the bathroom.

Yes. I've experimented with this too. This is the perfect use case for LLMs - there are no wrong answers, the LLM should just make something up, which is what it does.

My one thing I feel like I can brag about in tech circles is that I switched to Linux in 1995 (Linux kernel version 1.2.1), and I haven't looked back since. This was even before Windows 95 was released.

Yes. However, if you had skipped the -f, it would have been valid. Without the filename argument, it assumes it should extract from the tape drive (TAR = Tape ARchive). The tape device is probably something like /dev/rmt0, but you don't need to specify that. Using the -f is technically an exception which means "instead of extracting from the tape like you'd normally do, pretend that this file is the tape device instead."

Oh and their CEO is a rich frat boy and also probably the one with the crayons.

I'm not so sure, I'm pretty sure that guy ate all his crayons before he could do any kind of drawing.

Yes. Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law is a fundamental principle for good reason. For example, we don't actually know if anything of what we've read about him is actually true.

Who the fuck do these Vatican people think they are, to lecture others on morality? The previous pope instructed all of Catholosism that they were not to report pedophile priests to the police on pain of excommunication. And this is apparently fine by the current pope.

They are a bunch of idiots with no coherent concept of morality. All morality is based on personal responsibility, but most Christians seem to think they can ask their imaginary friend - rather than the one they have wronged - for forgiveness, and be granted it! It is absolutely absurd. I'm not saying that Christians in general are bad people, I'm just saying we shouldn't be looking towards Christianity or any of its leaders for moral guidance.

Incidentally - do you know which World War 2 nazis were excommunicated for their crimes by the Catholic church? You'd probably be surprised to know that it was only one. One! And who was it? It was Joseph Goebbels. Among all the heinous crimes commited by the nazis, what was it that Goebbels specifically did that caused the Catholic church to say "enough is enough"? I'll tell you what he did: He married a divorced protestant. "That's it," the Catholic church said, "you no longer get to go to heaven with your fellow nazi war criminals. Killing 13 million people in the Holocaust alone we can live with, but marrying a divorced protestant? No, we can't have that, that would be, like, totally immoral dude."

But surely, I hear you say, the Catholic church was against the nazis? No. No, they were not. Hitler's birthday was celebrated in German Catholic churces all throughout the war. Only in 1960's did the Catholic church apologize for its silence during the Holocaust, and revert the hitherto established doctrine that all currently living Jews - including children - are personally responsible for killing Jesus. That's why they didn't oppose the Holocaust - because the Jews (never mind that they weren't the only victims) had it coming, since they were all (some-fucking-how) personally responsible for "killing Jesus".

So, yeah. I'm not going to let these morons lecture me or anyone else on morality.

Exactly. People need to remember that this is the Internet, not their home country. We don't know where you're from.

I get your point, but he didn't create Tesla, he bought it (as far as I know). So it could be argued that these things would be happening with or without him. But with him, he's giving electric cars (at least, that brand) a bad name.

That's not how that works. In Linux, that command would simply create girlfriend out of thin air.

... no wonder we like Linux.

Well, I haven't pooped since last year, I bet that stuff is pretty damn hard by now if you really must know. 😅

It's the only one that I've found that has Smart Play. I'm not sure why not all podcast players have this, it's such a great feature. Going back to something without it, would feel like going back to the stone age.
