Thank you!

After posting this yesterday when lying in bed trying to sleep (i posted directly before going to bed) I thought of a similar reason:

Since (as far as i understood it) a modem is just a device that converts between 2 different types of internet signals, the ISP also needs one on their end to connect me to their data center. So it would be way easier for them to spy on their end of the cable (or signal, or whatever type of modem is used) than on my end, since there isn't really much happening in between.

not really

You can easily escape spaces with \ and my modern shell (fish) suggests and completes filenames for me anyway, so i don't have to type more than the first word in more than 90% of cases.

I certainly don't. I can easily put five or ever more pills in my mouth at the same time and swallow them all with one sip of water. I'm not even sure how I do that. They just all kinda align and slide down.

But why would I want baguettes? It's just very long white bread. No nutrients and barely any tase.

this would be regular expression not glob tho

i think Gendersternchen is closer to globbing than to regex

one * is enough for an all gender glob

i don't understand why most people on the internet don't use IPA for conveying pronunciation

while it is more complicated, and unless you are a phonology nerd, you have to look things up (including me), it is incredibly more concise

it is, in fact, the only way to concisely convey any pronunciation (excluding single language focused phonetic notations)

different english dialects have different pronunciation: e.g. fur can be /fɜː(ɹ)/, /fɜɹ/ and /fʌr/

While this is not the case for your comment, others also use made-up words for conveying pronunciation. Ghoti is a perfect example why that is problematic.

Gradience mainly changes the looks of libadwaita applications and it only work on gtk3 and gtk4 apps if you use the adw-gtk3 theme.

There is an important difference between gtk4 and libadwaita. While libadwaita apps use gtk4 in the background, they cannot be themed through normal gtk theming.

I don't know of any way to change the compactness of gtk4 or libadwaita, sorry.
