Maybe. Maybe not. If only there was some site-mechanism to check community-sentiment on comments.

Oh well, until someone invents that I guess we'll never know.

I appreciate your honest feedback.

Point missed twice, impressive.

I admire the time you have dedicated to whooshing and misinterpretation, you have become highly-skilled.

They are speaking for themselves.

The UK is known for rain, so it's unexpected to see the UK missing rain.

Like, you objected to.. ^ that. Confusing.

Off-topic starts here. There is no need to be hostile at a benign comment as there are plenty of dumb people who have earned that hostility.

How you reply to other comments will let me know which you are, given this comment it's not looking great.. but I have hope it's a one-off ill moment.

Re-reading your comment, I think you may be letting your anxiety get to you. Calm down, take deep breaths, then close your eyes. Breath and count the passing breaths, focusing on the rising and falling of the body. If a thought comes, let it pass, focus back on the breath.

Your anxiety may be justified, but I believe that your aim is off, don't let it shoot random bystanders on your side. Better yet, become aware of it through meditation and mindfulness. Wish you well.

Yeah, I use the one the kernel developers released when I last updated, so at most I'm about a week out of date on my server or a day or two out of date on my non-servers.

Point missed.

You didn't miss subtlety, the person to which you are replying is the "infinite egocentric snowflake" type. Makes everything about them, is sensitive, kinda common online, but yeah, annoying.

They're always under attack, even when alone, it seems exhausting.

My comment was a joke. I would make fun of you for not getting it but.. plenty of jokes have gone over my head online so I understand how it looks like a sincere comment. If it were perceived as sincere I totally understand and agree with your snark.

Text is tricky, and I probably could have done a better job making the joke more clear.

Yeah true, but where is the joke?

 

Am I doing it right?

qbittorrent cli project (programming.dev)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by stembolts@programming.dev to c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
 

I've been working on a small project to remote control (via ssh mostly) my qbittorrent client. It's going well and I've already taken care of the basic functions I set out to create.

pause all
resume all
set default parameters to all torrents
sort priority to mirror dl_limit
shutdown client

Obviously I'll add more.

Thought I'd stop by and ask if anyone knows of a similar project. I'd be open to sharing the code but for now just the question.

 

So I was thinking of silly things I've done that pseudo-broke my system, or made me think I had a broken system. Like the time I put the cmd :

exit

in my ~/.bash_aliases file and I had to open a text editor to fix it because that broke all the terminals on my machine.

I'm curious what other silly things users have done to confuse themselves.

 

I found this Python script a few years ago, it is simple enough that a non-programmer could understand 90% of it. I just remembered it had been running as a scheduled task all this time when I thought I had lost some saves.

Thought I'd post it here in case anyone can use it. Minor things are hard coded but they are few and easy to edit.
