There are still some remnants of this in Serbian and Croatian, e.g. the semi-dual "nas dvoje / nas dva".

Oh this is just awesome, thank you!

Note that OGG is not a video codec, it's just a container format. I.e. an OGG file can contain MPEG-4/H.264-encoded video.

golang doesn't statically link everything by default (anymore?), this is from FreeBSD:

    $ ls -l axe
    -rwxr-xr-x  1 root wheel 12830781 Mar 12 22:38 axe*
    
    $ ldd axe
    axe:
        libthr.so.3 => /lib/libthr.so.3 (0xe2e74a1d000)
        libc.so.7 => /lib/libc.so.7 (0xe2e74c27000)
        libsys.so.7 => /lib/libsys.so.7 (0xe2e75de6000)
        [vdso] (0xe2e7366b000)



We need more Kohl, that'll do the trick...


Also Umberto Eco's essay Ur-Fascism.


Interestingly to me, Arendt makes a good case that fascism is distinct from totalitarianism. It's possible to have a fascist government that is authoritarian and dictatorial, but not fully totalitarian. It's also possible to have a totalitarian government based on a system other than fascism.


Agreed, it's some sort of a Venn diagram of "traits" present in both -isms.


That's not a proper explanation IMO. The thing is - all these settings are introduced "quietly" as new defaults and you have to opt out. So one day you decide to upgrade a package, brew updates itself, and then starts doing all these things that weren't present before (and are most likely not needed at all). It's very annoying, and a dark pattern to say the least.


Maybe also these, to limit other annoyances:

  export HOMEBREW_NO_EMOJI=1
  export HOMEBREW_NO_ENV_HINTS=1
  export HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_CLEANUP=1


Out of curiosty, why the last one? If you update a package, generally you don't need the old version, why would you keep it around? I can imagine this being useful in some edge cases, but as a global setting, I'm not so sure.


I got bitten by broken upgrades in the past, when you were still able to simply "brew switch" to the old version if it was there. In addition the cleanup time is annoying when upgrading a lot of packages, so I kept the setting.


And then they don't ever open the page, right?
