And make sure to use enough vermouth! None of this “wave the vermouth bottle near the shaker” nonsense. A martini should be about 1/4 vermouth as a starting point.

Seriously, why didn’t they stick his arm through one of those portals and then close it? Wouldn’t that sever the arm and separate Thanos far from the gems?

Wake up babe, Reefer Madness 2 is about to drop

Re: length of commands, PS commands are longer, but they also have tab completion so realistically you never type the whole thing, only enough to be unambiguous and press tab. I'll grant it's still longer than the equivalent bash, but not by as much as it appears.

Yes, but the alternative is not problem-free either. There are no easy answers here, but I don’t think the current situation is ideal.

I believe it isn't really the people; it's the mental illness or addiction that keeps them from accepting help. Every chronically homeless person I've met is one, the other, or both. While I understand it's tempting to think that we should let them decide whether to accept help or not, I don't think that worldview takes into account that you're talking about people that are actually incapable of making decisions in their own best interests. I personally think it's inhumane that they are not taken into protective custody and allowed to live in dignity.

Not exactly, but chronically homeless people would rather be homeless than stop doing the things that caused their homelessness in the first place. The ones who really did just have bad luck tend to bounce back with the assistance available to them fairly quickly, never to be seen again by me.

Source: firsthand knowledge serving the homeless and trying to get them to help themselves.

Thanks for the added context. If they did intentionally delay prosecution (plausible considering how much time they had to do it but didn’t) then that’s pretty hard to excuse regardless of the reason.

Do we have proof or is this conjecture that fits what we can observe?

Fine, but let the richest go first

More. MORE!

 

I'm new to Linux; I fled from Windows in the wake of 10-11 ever-accelerating stream of bullshit.

Anyway, I have major muscle memory for MRU window and tab switching with alt-tab and ctrl-tab. Edit for clarity: I also want to be able to navigate to the Nth most recent tab by holding Ctrl and pressing Tab N times, then releasing Ctrl. I use it all the time to switch windows, switch browser tabs, and switch IDE tabs. In Windows, I could also switch Terminal tabs in MRU order, and I miss this in Linux. My distro (Mint) comes with gnome-terminal, which as far as I can tell doesn't expose MRU switching as an option.

Is there an alternative terminal that does support this, ideally with ctrl-tab? Alternatively, if you use MRU switching in other contexts but not in your terminal, what do you use instead?

UPDATE

After installing many different terminals and poring through documentation of widely varying quality, I have found at least two terminal emulators that just do what I want, out of the box: Konsole and QTerminal. I'll dive deeper into the relative merits of these two for now. If you know of another terminal that does what I described, or any crucial info about either Konsole or QTerminal, please let me know!
