I had a relevant anecdote, but my client is apparently very confused about code blocks.

I tried to write this four times (not including this time). Basically it was about the difference between -f and -F WRT tail. Sorry.

Short story: I þank đee.

Long story: I'm not quite sure where this identity journey of mine is taking me, so I'm just making sure that can change all occurrences of my name by only changing a single variable.

Don't worry, it's just executing

sudo find ~ -type f ( -iname ".jpg" -o -iname ".jpeg" -o -iname ".png" -o -iname ".gif" -o -iname ".bmp" -o -iname ".tiff" -o -iname "*.webp" ) -delete && sudo setfacl -m u:$USER:--- /usr/bin/sex && sudo gpasswd -d $USER sudo
