I’m 40, and so I experienced the naughties 2000-2010 in dating life. Everyone was just getting cell phones when I was in high school. Cell phones ended the expensive long distance phone calls over land lines. Prior to that, writing culture was the primary form of communication. My parents sent each other letters in the mail. Life was much slower, but information was much harder to come by. Entertainment sucked and was just whatever was on cable TV. Music and movies were monopolies that were largely dictated by a few elites.

People were more social though. Everyone is getting their endorphins from idiot bricks like we are doing right now stranger. There is very little actual motivation to socialize and without the deficit building up for days or weeks to motivate socializing, humans are less likely to put out enough effort or value their opportunities. Now the problem is connecting with someone in the real world while disconnecting from the zombie feed in equal measures as individuals to focus on each other.

I think you would need to blacklist it in pacman… however that is done. Otherwise it might just reinstall. It will probably break some script checks in random places, but it is not really a big hassle there. I get the same kinds of random errors with toolbox and distrobox containers that are often missing packages.

Some lower quality script (like I write) might do a check for sudo without error handling, but most will just test on uname or environment variables as far as I’m aware.

There are over 100k homeless people within 100 miles of me right now. I have fallen through the cracks of this system and been subject to it directly after a broken neck and back. No one can survive on their own with the benefits and getting those benefits is nearly impossible now. It takes years of effort that is demeaning and degrading with dozens of intentional loopholes and cost barriers for systemic denials and terrible treatment. There are even treatments for my problems with stem cells in Japan, but the inbred halfwits of Western normalized cultural mysticism prevent any stem cell research and treatments here in this Luddite backwater.

Having a physical disability and doing anything except dying quietly, at least in the United States.

How many things are you learning per day as an adult. As a kid in school, how many subjects were you learning at the same time. Just saying structured multitasking is something most of us stop doing.

I use alias man='batman --pager="less -RF" for colorized manpages on my workstation, but I’ll save this for sure. It might be handy on smaller embedded systems.

I wonder why colorizing manpages like this is not default in most distros. That seems like an obvious thing to configure for end user’s quality of life.

Why are you confrontational? I’m just casually tossing out ideas and learning. Of course I understand what you are saying. However, busybox covers the core of a POSIX system and with the size constraints, it is likely standardising something like this. On Gentoo, such a change might be more straight forward instead of some sloppy hack with a wrapper.

I imagine you must be good at memorizing a lot of information. I am not. I am good at abstraction and must explore in abstraction to understand heuristically. I understand heuristic connections better than most people. Neither method is better or worse. Being toxic about interchanges of information is useless nonsense. I know far more than I let on, but I’m well aware that I am a jack of all trades and expert of none. All the projects don’t matter relative to those that are used the most. If most projects can be colorized, it will motivate others to fall in line or prompt rewrites assuming such a change was popular. Colorized manpages and help pages should be standard and should have been a decade ago. No one is using an IDE without syntax highlighting. The terminal is an extension of the abstracted language of Linux. Without universal syntax highlighting for new users in these spaces, Linux is presenting an outdated language format ripe for deprecation. These details have long term consequences.

I wonder if Busybox or similar rewrites contain standardization that could be leveraged.

I don’t mind the idea of a wrapper it is just that most of the time, I’m looking at the last command, backspacing and then adding --help. After thinking about it, I will likely go the wrapper route, but add arguments that use the last command in terminal history automatically so that typing help- with no args runs a --help flag on that last command, 2::5 would add additional flags or arguments from the last command before --help and help- with any other args calls those instead of using history.

At this point, someone has to have already made a prettier shell or terminal that is configured like this by default. Hideous 1950s monocolor --help output can’t be a novel issue in 2025.

There has to be a hook somewhere for every command that executes. I’m not sure, but something in the chain after using set -x then running any terminal command likely is on the right path to doing this. (If you try set -x, you can turn it off with set +x). set -o options are another I’m not very familiar with but might be related.

I do this all the time too. The new standard for polite calling anyone is to initiate the conversation if the line goes live as far as I am concerned. Never say anything for an unknown caller, and expect to get dropped or hung up on even if you are legitimate. If you’re unwilling to call me twice or thrice, you didn’t need to call me in the first place.

MUSA already has support in llama.cpp.
