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?


CEC is probably one of them, but I'm not sure that's a bad thing.


I don't think DisplayPort has an equivalent to eARC either.

Open the notebook and flip through it. Drink the coffee (drag the mug downwards). Put the floppy in the device. Put the VHS tape in the device.


I first tried to shake the coffee to see if I could make a mess, didn't work. When the mug is empty, the github logo becomes visible and you can click through to the github repo.


That's an illustration of the difficulties. I got the disk, video dvd and even drank the coffee but I initially thought the notebook was some sort of box for the video so didn't realise you could open it to read!


I think that's on purpose/by design, so that users are nudged into exploring. Things like these were pretty common in adventure games back in the days, which I probably spent too much time on playing...


How do you open the notebook?

I can drag it around, no problem. The cursor also changes to a pointy hand when over notebook's right side, but clicking doesn't do anything. Nor does click-and-hold-then-dragging.


Clicking on the right side (pointy hand) worked for me.


I'm not German, but if I recall correctly: - "Eins" is for the actual number "one" - "Ein" is "a" for masculine/neuter genders - "Ein" is also used for expressing the amount, e.g. "ein Auto, zwei Autos"

That said, high school was a long time ago, so I might be way off :)


You're right! Oops.
