Generally, if this method doesn’t lead you to another human within a day, you’re already in really deep shit.
So by that point it’s walk or die. The hunger will subside after a day and your reptile brain will release loads of dopamine and adrenaline to keep you going.
You won’t find anything in the woods that’s quick to acquire without tools, nourishing, and easy to identify as safe to eat. Except maybe berries (if you know them).
If you’re lost in the woods with nothing, you don’t start to look for food.
You can live without food for 3 weeks, and if you happen to eat something wrong, you can get violently ill or poisoned.
Here’s what you do:
First you try to call for help, or wait for help, if you know someone is looking for you.
If not, you start to walk downhill (even if it’s just a barely noticeable slope).
At some point you’ll find water (a creek, river, whatever), or at least a dry river bed.
Then you follow that downstream until you’re literally out of the woods.
That way you aren’t in danger of walking in circles, and rivers generally lead you to settlements.
There’s hardly any spot on earth left where you won’t reach the nearest settlement within a week (i.e. before you die from hunger) that way.
cage is a minimalist Wayland compositor that only shows a single application in fullscreen. When you close the app, it drops you back to your console.
It’s compatible with programs that need X11 through XWayland, and it has practically no loading times.
cage -ds firefox would open Firefox in fullscreen.
Option -d hides client-side decorations and -s allows you to switch from Wayland to another TTY using Ctrl+Alt+F[1-6]
I put aliases for the programs I use in my .bashrc so I can just type FF[Enter] and a second later I have Firefox open.
Just wait till you hear how we pronounce “Chicago”.
That is exactly the reason why I like the text interface so much. It makes you think about what you want to do next.
In a graphical environment, there are lots of hints right in front of you what you could do next (made even worse in other OSs that use pop-ups).
In a text environment, unless you actively do something, all you get is a blinking cursor.
It increases my productivity and reduces time wasted on the computer, not because it is a bit faster, but because I don’t get distracted.
And it actually lets me set up multiple IMAP/SMTP accounts without sacrificing a chicken to the Unix Philosophers.
The standard frontend doesn’t let you log in without JS, but on old.feddit.org it works.
Same with the other instances I tested.
DuckDuckGo doesn’t ;)
By the way, in my browser, the title of this post shows up as
Google now requires Javascript in c/mildlyinfuriating
which shocked me a little.
So? I’ll take some characters that aren’t 100% correct, if I can read 4x as many books that way.
500,000 pages of ASCII-encoded books.
I’m a photographer and edit my own photos. I’m not gonna outsource that to an AI.
And I understand why some people are fonts enthusiasts, now.
On the console, you only have 256 colors and 1 font to customize your “desktop”.
There was a storm in the desert where they were filming which destroyed a lot of the equipment and almost doomed the film.
I think I remember reading that they had to use cheaper film stock in those scenes for that reason.
I’m just using the Links browser and fbi for the images.
Something smells fishy…
Thank you for this. aerc is going to save my sanity.
Yes. I have absolutely no idea what its purpose or use case is.
On a TTY, it has no mouse click support. It also has no keyboard navigation support in general. So how am I supposed to navigate websites?
On a terminal inside a graphical environment it’s completely useless, cause I’m in a graphical environment and can just use Firefox.
Seriously, if anyone is using Browsh or Carbonyl productively, I’d love to know for what.
yes it only shows the filename of an image. But you can set it up to open images in an external image viewer when you click on it.
Yes I set it up to open in FBI without prompt.
What - and I cannot stress this enough - the fuck?
