its 2023 and if you put a bunch of Quality Content into a website for free you do not get to act surprised when someone tries to monetize that content by putting it behind a paywall.

what kind of an idiot would pay for a website though?

how much for a used pizza robot van?

gonna turn it into a turkish ice cream truck where the robot is programmed to eternally keep your ice cream out of reach, much like the fate of tantalus.

We'll build a machine to clean that machine. And then another machine that cleans the cleaning machine. And then...

Floppy disks only for those who catch it.

symptoms include:

- Pain, burning or tingling in hands, neck and lower back
- Uncomfortable sensitivity to human touch
- Seeing red that begins a few days after the pain
- Emotional blistering that break open and crust over with full on depression
- Incessant itching, like a splinter in your mind driving you wild

they really should consider fluid dynamic centrifugal casting and parallel element distribution through the use of biorobots, which thankfully double as a means of maintaining both themselves and the tool elements, with the exclusion of the tool elements attempting to revolutionalize pizzaforming technology by gaslighting machines into thinking they're honorary italians

manpages are still not navigable and them being searchable via web browser is huge comparatively

you memorize numbers for the intent of the page, not a text label

code:
MANUAL SECTIONS
       The standard sections of the manual include:

       1      User Commands

       2      System Calls

       3      C Library Functions

       4      Devices and Special Files

       5      File Formats and Conventions

       6      Games et. Al.

       7      Miscellanea

       8      System Administration tools and Deamons

       Distributions  customize the manual section to their specifics, which often include additional sec-
       tions.

is there a way to search? yeah and it sucks

quote:

-K Search for the specified string in *all* man pages. Warning: this is probably very slow! It
helps to specify a section. (Just to give a rough idea, on my machine this takes about a
minute per 500 man pages.)
