#Linux/ #CLI question for y'all:
I'm looking at a keyboard configuration file for a terminal application that has lines like:
`,F10=F10:27 91 50 49 126`
This *seems* to be setting up the binding for the F10 key, but I have no idea what the numbers refer to.
Also, the file appears to use `+` as a comment character.
Does anyone know what format this file is in (clearly not Bash!)/what the numbers refer to/how I can edit it to setup the keybindings I want?
Today's SMBC: it me.
Hasbro is releasing a version of Monopoly that, for some reason, promises to take even longer to play than regular Monopoly.
https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/295178/monopoly-longest-game-ever
Since 12% of Monopoly games already last an infinite length of time (see: https://informs-sim.org/wsc09papers/036.pdf ), we have to assume that Hasbro has increased the average length of the game from a countably infinite length (aleph null time) to an uncountably infinite (omega) length game.
So in TIL, thanks to @ed_packet I now know that a commonplace book is a thing that people have done for actual ages. Shuffling the recipes markdown folder I started last night into a new top level commonplace folder, throwing that at Syncthing and putting a markdown editor/viewer on my phone (and finally syncthing there, too). Next up is to move "take a photo of that price tag to see if it's cheaper elsewhere" to a file.
After talking with @alpine_thistle I'm starting to think the best option is going to be to just migrate stuff to markdown files from webpages, print the pages for ease of use and put the markdown files in my normal backup locations.
(boosts appreciated) What do people like for archiving things like recipes that they find online, for later use? Long ago I tried and gave up evernote. I have a few things as bookmarks (not long term safe) and at least one recipe migrated to a TODO list in Google something, as it makes a super easy shopping list, and then instructions. But being a Google thing it will be killed off. I don't even need a mobile-friendly solution really but it does need to be useful for infrequent references.
If you have a .org domain name: go renew it now. For the full 10 years.
Registration rights for .org were just bought by a private equity firm. And as part of that contract, the price caps were removed.
Anything in .org will get much more expensive, soon.
A ten year renewal will cost you a bit over a hundred bucks. Which is probably less than one year will cost you in the very near future.

If you had told me two years ago that satirical Linux erotica would be the most common gateway to my fiction, I would have laughed in your face.

Going off on a tangent: this is also why libertarians trusting in the free market to make corporations ( = rich people) behave ethically is an absurdity. Because clearly when given the choice between doing what's right and making more money, the rich choose money. Every time. https://twitter.com/TheKyleStarks/status/1197538710805504000
