Who me dad jokes?

@nuintari I used silverblue for a long time, and I think its convention of /var/home makes the most sense. After all, your user folder is sort of like your own personal database.

@catsalad It detected the presence of .git folders, and included branch information inline in the prompt.
So if you changed branches in the same CWD, your prompt would reflect it.
That is almost useful, except that I find overly complicated prompts distracting.

@WhyNotZoidberg @nuintari
You mean C:\HOME? Or is it B:\HOME?That was how it was written on the OS that couldn't handle spaces.

@neonutopia /var is technically for temporary and transient files, at least according to hier(7) on FreeBSD. There is nothing temporary about most of my $HOME.

@leeloo @WhyNotZoidberg That isn't an OS, that is the most successful computer virus of all time.

@nuintari @catsalad This is how it's done in zsh: https://git-scm.com/book/ms/v2/Appendix-A:-Git-in-Other-Environments-Git-in-Zsh

@nuintari huh, OK. I guess I see a lot of databases there anyway, but maybe its the databases that are not in the right place.

@neonutopia Yeah, the fact that most databases end up there is more likely because they don't really fit anywhere when you literally follow hier(7).
And calling a home directory a database would likely make my CS 462 professor's head explode.

@nuintari Everyone knows that there is no place like /home.

@fucinafibonacci @spettacoli Pure. Allora solo deleterio. E come film mediocre sia nella regia che nel lavoro degli attori.
Stephen Rea, che è sicuramente il migliore nel film ha comunque regalato un'interpretazione migliore in Stuck 2 anni dopo.

@capetaun sono credo 100 anni che non apro webtoon perché è diventato sempre più cesso se non si paga comunque di queer stavo leggendo And another lovely day (protagonistə ace) e Not so shojuo love story (GL); poi avevo iniziato Dark Mermaid che sembrava potenzialmente yuri dalla copertina ma non mi ricordo. Se non l'hai letto ti consiglio Coffin Jackson, non è queer (anche se l'autorə scrive BL) ma è bellissimo. My reason to die se c'è sempre per me must read (si piange un sacco - coppia etero qui). Altra cosa interessante che avevo iniziato è Phantom Whispers (non propriamente horror altrimenti non potrei leggerlo, ma fantasmi, morti e mistero).
