I've been using them for bash functions, like this for example (the double braces are used in this example):

Code: Select all

os.system(f'''tar xf foo-{version}{extension} && cd foo-{version}
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo install -v -m644    doc/{{*.gif,index.html}} \
                    /usr/share/doc/foo-{version}
cd .. && rm -rf foo*
''')

tfw you're almost done with the 64-bit scripts, but you're likely going to take the external text files and implement them in this manner to save calling second scripts for bash.

tfw you hit a wall (metaphorically, not literally).

tfw people jump to conclusion about things you say and overreact.

tfw an update to mobile Firefox (Fennec) breaks Greasemonkey, so you can't use the Barbara theme on mobile until that gets fixed...

[Steo]

tfw someone reminds you that you should update Firefox (and it takes about 15 minutes to compile lol).

tfw talk of fifteen-minute compile times makes you think about upgrading your PC

[The Jonster]

tfw your PC is updated but there are no changes when you look a it the next time.

tfw you actually use Scroll Lock during your working day and find it helpful!

That's on a 3700X is the funny thing, but I still want one that has even more threads if I'll have to compile so often.

tfw you aren't in the humour of merging all of these scripts.

tfw you're supposed to be packing for a sleepover and you're on your computer instead.

[Steo]

tfw you remember a time when computers had a solid teal desktop background.

[The Jonster]

I remember the noise that comes with the background too!

tfw you realise your shoe is starting to cut into your foot.

tfw steam is broken again, and you go back on the old post here to check how to fix it, only to find out it still doesn't work, then realise your post had a typo and said ca-certificate.crt instead of ca-certificates.crt.

[The Jonster]

tfw you wish you had multiple copies of consoles/handhelds in stock in case you want to fix one of your broken ones.

tfw the new Ryzen CPUs interest you enough that you order a new motherboard in advance knowing you'll likely be buying one of them.

tfw a pillow has a charcoal scent to it.
