Love that "lol fuck off" is a complete antithesis for this whole argument. And is also the correct amount of energy to expend on these fucking nerds
Yup, those word are only spoken by the uneducated, the uncouth, the low borns. Fuck that shit.
If every other word out of someone’s mouth is a curse word, okay yeah that screams, making up for a limited vocabulary. But intentionally never cursing, you’re not big brained you’re an uptight dork.
Depends how they do it though. There are some very poetic uses of the repetitive "fuck"
Yeah context is everything. The “fuck” scene from The Wire is nothing but “fuck” and it’s a brilliant scene.

It depends on context. You call an absolute legend a "mad removed" but someone who's being an absolute drongo you call them a "shit removed." If you see your mate Dazza down at the pub when you haven't seen him in donkey's years you say "Dazza you absolute piece of shit, how the bloody hell are you mate?"
Ye do realize words like c-unt have to be censored in Hexbear.... right?
Yeah, I just thought it was funnier if half my words got censored there.
Could just be you're a chef? Sometimes swearing nonstop is the only way to make it through the day.
We need to divorce the "people who are interested in things that tend to make them go down rabbit holes" and these kinds of nerds. We need to make nerds uncool again. You're not a nerd because you like Star wars and marvel. You're so mainstream, it's sickening.
The kinds of thinking really go all around, it really confuses me as how said folk manage to create a coherent understanding
These types tend to think that statements like "cursing is giving in to animalistic instincts" are self evident truths of the universe - essentially claiming that only animals have emotional responses to anything, and that humans are special in their ability to view things impartially. These same people also get very defensive when you call them a fucking idiot, and then mad when you call out their "animalistic instincts".
Yea where do you draw the line.
Curses aren't all about strong emotions and all words about strong emotions aren't curses.
I'd love to hear the author square that you can't say anything that is a result of animalistic instincts and why its ok to tell somebody you love them.
I mean, I understand if it's their personal choice, but it's like someone who went through AA. I understand you can't drink, but I don't appreciate you sitting there in judgement of me of the two drinks I had at dinner after not having any alcohol for weeks.
Doesn’t the logic of the
secondthird screen cap on veganism apply to their logic on cursing? I’m not taking the easy route linguistically, ergo my verbal chasteness is a sign of my intellectual/moral superiority.what a piece of shit
I made the decision to totally cut obscenities out from my speech.

also bash tutorials are inherently conservative. embrace structured text, reject reactionary 40-year-old-shell fetishism

Finally someone gets it, we need more tutorials in the woke Fish shell instead of "how do I do if statements again in Bash" /j
Powershell uses a structured data pipeline, as does elvish and nushell and many others. I don't think fish does, it's trying to be mostly POSIX-compliant except where they don't agree with POSIX. I might be wrong about that it's been a long time since I used fish.
Feel free to keep reading my ramblings but the landing pages for both elvish and nushell that I linked above illustrate the power of structured data pipelines, in particular nushell:

Accomplishing something like this with a flat text pipeline like bash would be much longer and far less readable.
POSIX-compliant shells use plain text in their pipeline, which means that any output you pipe from one command to the next has to be done so in either plain text or a format the consuming command can process. What that means in practice is that unless the consuming command has been designed specifically to consume the output from the preceding command in the pipe, users have to do a lot of string manipulation with tools like awk, sed, or grep to structure the output from one command into a format that can be consumed by the next.
Where it really shines is when interacting with APIs that expect to use structured data in their interfaces, as you can just pipe data from one to the next without worrying about restructuring it. It's why PowerShell was created--unlike POSIX-compliant OSes, Windows is built on the component object model, and every API built into the OS already used structured data.
The web is built on structured data (json, xml) as well, and that lucky coincidence made powershell a much more useful shell for over-the-wire API interaction than bash et al.
thinking about it more, a correction to my post:
It's not that you don't have to restructure data that you pass through the pipeline with modern structured-data-pipeline shells, you definitely still do. It's just that restructuring that data is trivial because you don't have to use a
textstring manipulation tool to re-construct the output structure from the flat text pipeline, you can access that output structure directly.Of the examples I gave above, PowerShell's probably the most accessible (in terms of tutorials and whatnot), I ran it as my shell on linux for a couple years before switching to Elvish.
hell yeah comrade. it's a little weird to get used to but I like it. I don't use the object pipe that often in interactive use but it's killer for scripts

I remember this guy from back in the earlier days of linux and linux gaming related media. When gamingonlinux was just taking off, linux gamecastweekly had been rolling for a bit, brian lunduke hadn't shown his entire ass to everyone. I could smell /g/ stained libertarian bullshit coming off this guy from miles away. Last I heard he had fucked off into the woods trying to do some kind of trad retvrn shit.
If you're into linux and free software it's either full on commie transgender free everything and everyone destroy capitalism, or just the most insane libertarian shitheads.
Reading this guy's insufferable blog and was reminded of a greentext I saw years ago and saved, it sums up so many of these dudes:
Be highschooler
Sit every day playing vidya and doing homework in suburban two story
Never go out because no friends
Never have interesting experiences
Girl I like won't look at me because I'm a silent, boring, slender starchman with no personality
People who do drugs and have sex are more personable and appealing
Nurse hatred of peers
Become trad christian larper
Read hours of old, tired punditry from the 90s denouncing anything pleasurable
Spend every other hour shitflinging online as a caricature of naive, unironic puritanism
Know my views are ridiculous but I'm lashing out at people for not paying attention to me anyway
Refuse to broaden my horizons or do anything that my beguile someone to have an interest in me
Double down on trying to make an identity out of being a gelded, passionless clown
Die a sad virgin convinced cultivating the kind of empty moral superiority that was a cartoonish mockery of real people to begin with
Many such cases
the author was mocking tradcath types, starchman I think just means stiff or rigid like starchy clothes
The person making the original greentext was probably making fun of these sorts of people, so it wasn't self-awareness.
I swear a lot of the time because I'm fucking angry. It helps me vent and it helps keep my sentences simpler. People understand that most of not all of my rage is at situations in the news or not in the news but should be. If I write "I swear a lot of the time because I'm angry..." - it could cause confusion. I could be talking about my personal life.
I do admit it's a cheapie way to make jokes too.
There might be times when it's proper for someone to react in righteous anger, but those are in reality so rare as to only happen in life-and-death situations.
I get the sense this guy doesn't have much empathy. If your eyes are open to the world - "so rare" entirely wrong. Not only that - situations can come up every darn day.

A comment I noticed. I have no context so I don't have any idea how accurate/inaccurate it is...
A hateful religious nut-job that occasionally makes a Linux video, then asks you for a donation to himself for introducing you to someone else's work.
I think that's exactly why certain words are considered obscene or inappropriate- to tone police and shutdown righteous anger. It forces us to stifle the rage we feel towards the bullshit around us in response, as well.
