[00:16:48] <Norm_MacDildo> You know what would be awesome? If somebody in a cancel-proof country hosted a crowdsourced website which provided a list of every politically-incorrect comment made by x actor/actress in y movie. Then have the woke mob relentlessly pester those actors/actresses/producers by throwing those quotes back in their faces.

[00:25:49] <AzumaHazuki> saying it again: make the irc channel registered users only. "front landing page of SN" my ass, IRC is niche as hell in the age of discord
[00:36:07] <chromas> Your ass would make a terrible landing page
[00:36:35] <chromas> Needs some marquees and <blinks> and stuff
[00:38:31] <chromas> But if an ass were to be the landing page, I could see why you'd think the cracks were starting to show
[00:52:02] <Bytram> stop it with the wise cracks
[00:53:24] <chromas> Well I'm just trying to make your vertical smile but I can see you guys are split down the middle

[02:06:50] <SoyCow0469> Locally, people are putting up American flags, on Columbus day, in rejection of Yhoodeo-Globalism. I think the time is about right. Perhaps tomorrow, in the grocery store, should I encounter a Black cashier I will tell them all about Yhoods trying to get Black and White to beat each other up amidst a Goyim extermination campaign.
[02:07:52] <SoyCow0469> As well as elucidate the Yhoods' involvement in the North American slave trade.
[02:09:45] <SoyCow0469> They may also be interested in the circumstances surrounding BLM and its funding, and how it did absolutely nothing for the Black community except ruin its trust
[02:10:17] <SoyCow0469> But it sho' 'nuff did get a lot of White Jews into positions of power!

[09:01:34] <FatPhil> is there a way to set a shell variable to be an escape character that is sh/bash agnostic?
[09:02:29] <FatPhil> in bash, you just do foo=$'\e' but sh will have none of that.
[09:03:22] <FatPhil> in sh, you can do foo=$(echo "\e") but bash will have none of that.
[09:05:27] <FatPhil> aha - as long as you avoid the builtin echos which have different behaviour, you can do this: foo=$(/bin/echo -e "\e") and that works in both
[09:07:03] <FatPhil> Of course, you're then at the mercy of whatever /bin/echo you're running, which might or might not be the gnu one.

[11:01:03] <inz> FatPhil, can you use "real" esc character, you can insert it usually by prefixing with ^V
[11:24:23] <FatPhil> inz: I want to use it in a shell script fragment that I want users of different shells to be able to source.
[11:26:12] <FatPhil> different bourne-like shells. C-family ones can go fuck themselves.
[11:28:56] <FatPhil> the "solution" above works in dash, bash, and zsh, which are the only shells any of my users currently use as shells.
[11:29:56] <FatPhil> it's dash that's letting the side down failing to understand $'stuff'
[11:36:28] <inz> Yeah, dash is annyoingly strict in POSIX-and-only-POSIX compliance
[11:37:17] <FatPhil> I should probably use printf rather than echo, too
[11:41:15] <inz> You could also use tput to dig out the full sequences from termcap for your fancy colors
[11:48:02] <FatPhil> dash also doesn't cope with the shortcut for printf-with-assignment printf -v foo "\e"
[12:06:43] <inz> Not surprising
[12:09:53] <inz> (and there /usr/bin/printf trick won't help either)

[16:11:59] <requerdanos> who uses dash interactively? that's not its thing
[16:14:01] <FatPhil> good point, but I hate using bashisms and gnuisms where avoidable.
[16:14:30] <FatPhil> I want to be forward compatible with the as-yet-unwritten sh-alikes
[16:20:45] <requerdanos> ah, so not interactively. I misinterpreted.
[16:21:48] <FatPhil> this particular use would be interactive only
[16:22:37] <FatPhil> as long as it parses, it doesn't need sane behaviour from any script
[16:23:28] <FatPhil> and $'stuff' parses fine, so I could stick with that.
[16:26:08] <FatPhil> however, if therek was a *clean* technique I could use in any context, I's adopt that in a snap.
[16:26:37] <FatPhil> not all parses-in-any-context workarounds are clean, some very far from it.
