> Greek being the only Hellenic one

Are there really any other Hellenic languages besides Greek?

Not USB, but there exist SFP DSL modems, like the Proscend 180-T.

They are pricey and difficult to come by, but with something like a Turris Omnia as a host, you _can_ have a single-device modem/router/WiFi AP

He's also the author of elfeed [0] "An Emacs web feeds client". I've found his minimalist implementation very inspiring.

It appears you can still make it return an Atom feed if you pass the 'Accept: application/xml' header.

This is not to say that what they did was right.

We have 30k year old statues?

This is news to me, do you have a reference you can share?

I have been using `duf` [1] for a while, as a "cleaner" alternative to `df`.

It's a really great calculator for all sorts of stuff.

I use many of the following almost daily:

- currency conversion: `x USD to EUR` or `BTC to USD`

- time calculations: `now - 27 hours`

- unix epoch conversion: `timestamp(now - 3 days)`, also `stamptodate()`

- unit conversion: `34 oC to oF`

and more.

Works really nicely with https://github.com/svenstaro/rofi-calc

I have `$mod+c` bound to rofi-calc [1] which I find even more convenient.

Why does email feel wrong? I find it a pretty viable solution.

I have never really understood the difference between a heat pump and an A/C myself.

Any expert care to explain it in layman's terms?

Is hibernation (is it called suspend-to-disk nowadays?) working with *BSD yet?

For me, it is a prerequisite for using *BSD as a desktop OS, and what stopped me from migrating from Linux to *BSD last time.

Edit: Formatting

I have found https://github.com/denisidoro/navi very useful for remembering nifty one-liners.

It's like a bookmark manager for commands.

Also good for sharing them with the rest of your team, via a git repo.
