It became a real problem on reddit after a while where bots would just go grab the most popular posts of 6 months ago and post them all again. Before the bots, people would do it to farm karma, and the people would get called out for it, but it was never a huge deal because you were still getting at worst like a 60/40 split of new content to reposts. But after a certain point the ratio shifted dramatically in favor of reposts in a lot of bigger communities. I think that’s what really galvanized the hatred toward them.

Maybe I’m just a pessimist these days but all I could think about the whole time was, it’s 72F in fucking February, I might legitimately die working out here when June or July roll around. Summer is going to be real bad here.

This meme is about as old as I am so that’s very likely

Thanks to everyone, removing the space in the shebang and putting the full path to the binary solved the problem. Appreciate it!

Hey, I was working on the same problem the other day and maybe you can help me with it a bit further. If you don’t mind.

I like to run gotop on my second monitor so I can watch my system resources, and normally I just open a terminal window and type gotop and it runs and stays open and continually updates. I’ve made this command into a shell script to run at startup. Using this script presumably halfway works, because a terminal window shows up, but it tells me “the child process exited normally with status 127.” and prompts for relaunch (which does nothing except present the same message again).

Now the internet tells me that 127 generally means “command not found” which doesn’t really make sense to me because gotop is in my PATH and can be run normally without any kind of special arguments or location if I pop open a terminal and do it myself. So I’m not really sure where the problem lies. The script in question is currently parked on my desktop and when I run it manually, when logged in and everything, nothing changes except that I also get an additional terminal window that states the child process exited normally with status 0.

I’m brand new to both Linux and shell scripting so I barely have any idea what I’m doing here, I’ve gathered through individual research that I should also have a line starting the file with #! /bin/bash but I’m not actually even too confident about that part. Currently the entire script reads as follows:

#! /bin/bash gnome-terminal -- sh -c gotop

I’ve tried with and without quotes on gotop and I’ve tried with and without the hashbang and none of the four options have given me different results, which makes me think I’m barking at the wrong tree. I have made the script executable so I don’t think that’s the problem.

O wise one, please bestow upon the poor noob your knowledge. (This request is also open to other wise ones who may be passing by.)

I’ve met a couple hackers and their polycules, this probably already exists irl

Everyone has been feeling the pressure of “something is about to happen” for the better part of a decade. That pressure has to vent somewhere.

I’m moderately surprised that Tesla hasn’t already tried replacing the windshield with a big screen and cameras tbh

They’re the same picture

Fuck why are these all so correct

Aren’t a significant percentage of the COD devs all ex Raven Software employees? They were good ass developers. They just got purchased and sent to the mines.

You’re never too old to go horny on main at AO3

That would be largely because Bethesda had no hand in Doom at all beyond publishing, and frankly, I’m still impressed because I expected them to fuck that up too.

It’s amazing the good games you get when you let good developers just do their thing.

Mercy got that Glock delivered straight from the angry hands of God and it shows

Yes, but it isn’t just :chicken: or something like you’d see in Discord. It’s unicode, so it’s actually U+1F414. Egg is U+1F95A.

Ooh, also changing your post after you’ve already replied, into something completely different. Real classy. Definitely real stable genius kind of behavior.

I’m going to say this once, nice and loud and slow for you and everyone else in the back seats : Repeating a lie over and over again does not make it true. Doubling down on a lie when called out also does not make it true.

Now I’m going to do the intelligent thing, that I should have done the first time we had this exact same argument: Enjoy your block, we won’t be interacting again.

Nice try, but no.

This user has a long history of just saying things without looking them up. I have them tagged as such from around 8 months ago. I applaud your effort, but save it.

A meme (/miːm/; MEEM) is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme. A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices, that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena with a mimicked theme. (Source: Wikipedia, though other dictionaries say similar.)

I think by a broad definition it still counts. But by a broad definition, Rock-Paper-Scissors is a meme.

I know this is pedantic, but defining what is and is not a meme is actually a pretty interesting problem. It’s a basic unit of data that’s shared and replicated among thinking minds. It’s our currency of culture.
