@coriander as a catholic i am morbidly curious whether it would make sense to me or be completely incomprehensible

@aschmitz @aescling @Satsuma @wallhackio i recommend just switching to CotEditor but i do think there is a toggle for this somewhere in TextEdit preferences

@aschmitz @aescling @Satsuma @wallhackio if it doesn’t support Unicode it is merely a code unit editor, not a text editor

@aescling @Satsuma @aschmitz @wallhackio i also like the having a native text editor parts of Mac

@aschmitz @Satsuma @wallhackio i am not particularly good at shell scripting but that’s because i abstract all the control logic into GNU Make syntax but Caleb already rejected that one

@aschmitz @Satsuma @wallhackio honestly if you want to be portable ruby is likely a better bet than shell

@Satsuma @aschmitz @wallhackio it is true though, you can just do all of your scripting in Deno if you want, it just feels excessive for the task of “pipe a bunch of files to pandoc”

@aescling @wallhackio i presume your shell scripts probably do not work on BSD then

@aescling @wallhackio read The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 8, Volume 3: Shell & Utilities

@coriander @aescling just wait until a decade from now when the kids who were too young to remember the scandal grow up

@coriander @wallhackio the question is whether the ingredient you cannot locally source is as rare and particular as Cortas Eau de Rose ماء الورد – كل كلاب

@coriander @wallhackio that said i’m pretty sure our Cortas Eau de Rose ماء الورد – كل كلاب was probably purchased on amazon, albeit not by us

@coriander @wallhackio i have bought food i can’t find in my local grocery store on target

@aescling nothing on linux is standardized in the formal sense it is all just convention

@coriander Snoop Dogg reminds us of Starsky & Hutch, which reminds us of a time when Hey Ya! was still getting radio play, and we all wish Hey Ya! was still getting radio play because that song still bops

@wallhackio @aescling @vaporeon_ girls don’t want switch between ruby versions at any time girls want multi ruby release channel drifting thru shell PATH hacks

@aschmitz @aescling @wallhackio @vaporeon_ it was a medium deal during the ruby 2 to 3 upgrade when many older repositories were not yet ruby 3 compatible. i mostly haven't had compatibility issues since then and 3 to 4 seems like less of a jump, so unless you are on bullseye for some reason system ruby might be ok
