Every time this point comes up, ultimate conclusion isn't the CLI is bad or can't be improved, but the VT220 and similar emulation that's holding things back. Any person who has de…

Rest of your suggestions are quite thoughtful, but > They can license feeds to specific clients only this is a bad idea.

> That would imply people will go back to installing things, hunting for feeds, copypasting urls... Nope. We could have a simple list of feeds, with a simple 'add' button next to t…

A cursory google search couldn't find what you mention. Can you cite the source please? I know another example that goes in opposite direction, of Humble Bundles, where Linux had c…

It doesn't matter how much value Word delivers when Libreoffice Writer delivers more, for less (zero) cost. For most people, Writer is enough, and so they won't buy Word. Its just …

As someone who went through prolonged depression and still barely keeping it at bay, I sometimes get worried sick what I would do if my own (future) kids go through the same. Looki…

If we've learned anything about advertisers in the past, is they WILL get greedy, and start exploiting human brain in more and more ways. Eventually it reaches uncanny valley, and …

I'm looking to get started on Ansible since my new install is coming up in few weeks. Can you point me to a decent tutorial?
