          Glob patterns can be handy too:

          echo Psy*Test*

          echo Psy*BC?

          Same works for any command. Like with cd:

          cd Psy*BC?

          In my example "*" stands for several chars and "?" says here's exactly one char. shell globs have some more features like sequences, sets etc.

              it was one of those crosswalks where they embossed it with a fake brick texture, but the thing that really made the illusion work was the chewing gum splats repeating a little too perfect

              @talksina capisco meglio ora, grazie per avermi spiegato.

              A me fa piacere sapere di avere una voce chiara e comprensibile e magari anche un minimo coinvolgente, come spero anche il contenuto.

              Dico questo anche perché ci ho investito tempo (soldi) per corsi, esercizi, studio. Ottima cosa non averlo buttato!

              @inthehands @tchambers Fediverse is what I call "on life service", with the metaphor "internet vs. bicycle". Not related to environment, but to slower and more effective results. You need information about a person? On Internet they could tell what they want but if you ride your bike and move around the city, ring bells, knock at shops doors, asking about John Doe, folks who know him, will tell you who he really is. Fedi is the same: slower to be followed but follower are real. #fediverse
