Maybe checkout kdirstat (gui) and ncdu (tui)

I wonder what the implications would be, if every body part were labeled (including innards).

System architect said it was temporary.

For a moment I thought you meant "bar" as in a place/business. I nearly searched for chocolate bars in my area. :)

Not pictured (and sold separately) is all the machinery needed to make the longest and straightest roads, bridges, and tunnels ever.

Metal is plastic. (lemmy.sdf.org)
submitted 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) by xia@lemmy.sdf.org to c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

In materials science, "plastic" refers to the ability of a material to undergo permanent deformation under stress without breaking. Metals exhibit plasticity when they are subjected to stress beyond their elastic limit, allowing them to be shaped or formed. This property is distinct from the common use of the word "plastic" to describe synthetic polymers.

Just imagine how long it took humans to make such a thing with the primitive hammers and chisels they used in that millennium...

Me:

List things with attribute X.

AI:

Certainly! Here are some things with attribute X!

  • A - While it doesn't have X, it does Y.
  • B - Also doesn't have X, it does Z!
  • C - Is sorta like A, but without X support.
  • D - Useful for Z, but does not have X yet.
  • E - May have X (spoiler, it doesn't)
  • F - [is completely hallucinated]
  • B - [because we now we are repeating ourselves?]
  • G - considered having X, but never did.

There's some things with attribute X. I'm such a good AI, is there anything else I can do for you?!

This is how conspiracy theories ought to work. Perfectly fine to raise a question, and dismissed when you get the answer. Absent is the rampant speculation and unfounded claims.

Lol... good luck with that, they don't even honor their mistakes. I once found a typoed price (brand new laptop dirt cheap). No more "false advertising" claims these days, your order is just canceled without any stated reason, and without recourse.

Easy... decoupling. You hit the pause button on your keyboard, it does not need to "know" (in code or compile time or at runtime) what your music player is, and it can still pause it. Similarly, you can write a new media player, and not have to convince 1000 different projects to support or implement your custom api. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enterprise_service_bus
