To save everyone time: I just tried this and while ChatGPT got it wrong, Gemini and Claude answered correctly.

Of course YMMV.

They weren’t blindingly fast then. The hardware was so much slower in the 90s. It’s difficult to remember just how slow a 5400rpm hard drive was.

My experience with any built in sandboxing for these command line tools has been awful.

What I've done instead is built a script to create a disposable virtual machine (using incus to manage it).

And then I just run the CLI inside the virtual machine and delete the vm at the end of each day.

For a while Amazon loved selling the smaller units for a little as a dollar (and often including several months of Amazon music for free or almost free as well).

Sell enough of these 30 dollar gadgets for a dollar and it will add up quickly.

I've never seen a great projector that doesn't make a ton of white noise form the fan. Do "silent" projectors exist?

He paid $5 a season. Assuming he doesn't want to watch anything else on Netflix, it's better to just buy it outright.

The other way to think about it is that it's the same order as cp.

You should keep going with Brothers Karamazov. The first 150 pages are mind-numbingly boring. But starting at around page 151, it does indeed become one of the best, if not the absolute best book ever written.

According to both Merriam Webster and Oxford (not the OED, but the regular one) there are two definitions for retarded, both of which are offensive, and neither of which mean slow.
