strange the only thing that went wrong from my update to 19.03 was that i lost my shell history
<ldlework>
no idea how but alas

I often lose my bash history :/
<gchristensen>
it is basically the only reason I use zsh
<samueldr>
using `shopt -s histappend` I don't think I ever lost one command
<samueldr>
(and also using a prompt command to flush to file, but that's not required and changes how the history file works)
<gchristensen>
oh?
<ldlework>
gchristensen: i'm using zsh
<gchristensen>
oh, huh
<jackdk>
I've noticed nixos' bash likes to put repeated commands in history, but other bashes I've used haven't. What's the option there?
<samueldr>
jackdk: ignoredups
<jackdk>
samueldr tyvm
<samueldr>
in the HISTCONTROL environment variable
<samueldr>
(man bash, search for HISTCONTROL, more options)
<jackdk>
aye aye cap'n birdseye
<gchristensen>
If the list of values includes ignorespace, lines which beginwith a space character are not saved in the history list. -- interesting
<gchristensen>
wow, this is a fascinating environment variable
<samueldr>
bash has so many toggles and bits and bobs you can fiddle with
<samueldr>
(the space thing is great, you can hide your failures, or simply skip those useless things from showing up in your history)
<samueldr>
e.g. I have this command to mount, then use ranger in a sshfs mount to stream things from my nas computer, I use " that-command" so I don't pepper my history with it
<gchristensen>
nice
<gchristensen>
my .zshrc is empty, and my .bashrc was always empty too

I'm having a can't even moment as I realize that npm has disabled the github issue tracker in favor of Discourse
<colemickens>
And that they don't seem to care that their registry advertises http urls instead of https for some tarballs.
<colemickens>
wow, it's worse with full context, they just need to do a batch job to fix some bad metadata from the sounds of it.

colemickens: with firefox nightly + sway and GDK_BACKEND=wayland on intel gfx I get "Gdk-Message: 15:37:09.065: Error reading events from display: Invalid argument"; are you experiencing this?
<jasongrossman>
Why do people in videos talk so slowly? :-(
<gchristensen>
did you set the video speed to .75x? :) (I have youtube at 1.25 almost always)
<jasongrossman>
gchristensen: Good point. I resent having to speed them up, but it would help. What I really want, of course, is to be able to vary the speed easily and in retrospect when I get to a difficult bit, which is why reading text is so much nicer.

ah shoot, at least thumb it :)
<gchristensen>
thanks :) I've never been interested in learning the details of hacking on emacs. I use my tools much more lightly than I think many people wish
<jasongrossman>
gchristensen: A slider is a VERY good idea IMO.
<jasongrossman>
gchristensen: I approve of using tools lightly, FWIW.
