I get the philosophical point — sort should just sort, and uniq should just remove duplicates. That’s the classic Unix purity argument. 🙂

Practically speaking, though, sort | uniq spawns an extra process and pipes all the data between them. On small files it’s negligible, but with large datasets the overhead can become noticeable. sort -u keeps it all in one process, which is more efficient while achieving the same end result.

I don’t try to understand it.
I don’t even know if it’s true.
It’s just something I read on Reddit.

Anti-cheat, copy protection, whatever.
I just want to play a game with my girlfriend and her wife.

Otherwise, we would no longer have a problem with Norway ;3

And just a minor detail: I’m not Dutch but Belgian.
I live in the northern, Dutch-speaking part of the country, Flanders.
The official name of my language is Dutch, but to differentiate from the variety of our northern neighbours in the Nederlands, the word Flemish is often used to describe my language.

Don’t worry about it. First time commenters have to go through approval first, this is to reduce comment spam.

Thank you for your kind words!
Indeed, I use emojis as visual punctuation, or actually as a visual summary of the thought I want to express.
I often use Emojipedia to find the right emoji. 🔍

Also, some mistakenly point to emoji as a “tell” but I like how you do yours… please tell me more about your emoji usage, is it to visually punctuate sentences?

One caveat: Unfortunatelu the “backup key” has never worked when try to complete windows registration on a new system.

In ieder geval: ik vind je blogposts boeiend om te lezen! Die hebben altíjd een storytelling-vibe.
Ikzelf kan me hiermee momenteel ook identificeren, al zoekend welke jobs wel en niet bij me passen. Zeker nadat ik mezelf dit jaar in een nieuw licht leerde kennen, als zijnde ‘on the spectrum’. *iets met zelfkennis en het begin van wijsheid*

Ik subscribe alvast,

mijn naam ken je, staat in m’n mailadres 😉

I was actually thinking something similar, but the other way around: stop the crashplan service if a marker file is present in the mount folder (this file would disappear if the dataset was actually mounted over it).

It would SO easy for Crashplan to look for a marker file of of their choosing (maybe !!crashplan-unmounted!!) to pause backups of each backup set.

Maybe I’ll open a ticket in the hope it gets a feature request tag!

Yes there is a very specific reason: I don’t know what systemd is and I hope that some friendly commenter helps me out. Like you just did, so thanks!

like it is described here for example:

The police already came by a few weeks ago. She told me that the city services could take their time…
So, to answer your question: yes, I left out that boring detail.

That may be true for older versions of smbfs or cifs, but not for cifs of at least version 4.5 or higher.
For a mount command with username and password on the shell: yes you need to put them in quotes, or escape special characters like spaces.
But in a credentials file, you don’t need quotes or escapes. Please refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page. 🙂

Now I need to have a look at the key mapping, because I could not comment on this post earlier, because I could not find the @ on said MacBook Air. 🙂

Misschien. Ooit.

My boss does not mail me on my private email address, and monitoring alerts go to a dedicated channel Slack.

I’d like to refer you to a previous blogpost for the reason: http://blog.amedee.be/the-website-was-down
I don’t care if the general consensus is that nginx is “better”, if it doesn’t work for me then it isn’t. Simple as that.

Duidelijk genoeg?

Al is de VRT webmaster nog zo snel, Google Cache achterhaalt hem wel! :-p

Ik heb al op 7 september screenshots genomen met mijn smartphone.
Bedankt om te melden, dit wordt de inhoud van een volgende blogpost: VRT probeert bewijzen te vernietigen. 😀
