Well it was big, and then it wasn't afterward.

The house will appreciate more than the mortgage interest. It's debt, but not bad debt.

Say whaaaat? 🎶

Aww, I'm disappointed in the Weinersmith for using just black and white when Dazzle camouflage included colours but they weren't captured in B&W photography.

Aww man, you made me cry a little bit for what could be.

Sith taking a piss.

Needs more Pooh.

That's a pretty big advantage actually. Thanks!

Hey, even memes can lead to learning opportunities!

So it opens the file in your editor, since you have read access to it. Then saves your changes to a temp file. Then when you close the editor it does a sudo mv tmpfile readfile?

I checked this by checking the file ownership when running touch myself. The file is owned by root. sudo nano myself also creates a file owned by root. sudoedit myself removed at me not to run it in a writable directory.

sudoedit: myself: editing files in a writable directory is not permitted

So I ran it in a non-writable directory and the resulting file is still owned by root.

So is the advantage of sudoedit preventing a possible escalation of privileges situation?

Why memorize a different command? I assume sudoedit just looks up the system's EDITOR environment variable and uses that. Is there any other benefit?

I did this with my garage door the other day. The thing squealed like crazy since we bought the house and I didn't really know how to fix it. Got some White Lithium Grease and just sprayed it into all of the hinges, greased the top rail and tightened the chain. I just love that I don't have to cringe every time I'm about to press the button to open the door.

Of you want to kill someone, just use a car and say it was an accident. All will be forgiven as long as you weren't road raging or drinking beforehand.

Too busy with protesting Tesla. 🙄

Logical partitions?

I have two huskies. If I don't walk them they get destructive. I got them to help keep myself active and they're doing their job.

Also took up Ultimate (frisbee). Such a great game, but so much running!

Production quality is similar to the Jennifer Aniston and Matthew Perry guide to Windows 95.

I'm loving the evolution of this meme.

I saw my neighbor cleaning their bikes and using a bike stand. I don't have a bike stand. Is it something worth investing in?
