well i frequently copy and paste large sections of text from/to a terminal scroll area regularly because copy paste is way faster than making a file and transferring it. So say you display 300 lines of log, you can't cut and paste because the ends of the lines are off the screen. Most Linux logs are just in regular text files because Linux commands are designed to pipe stdout and manipulate it however you want. like there are hundreds of not thousands of commands to do that. that's the way Linux works. its actually quite strange to mess with that flow by adding a pager to the application layer. it just isn't consistent with linux. also most Linux config files are self documented; all config options are in a file and you adust them to get the functionality you want. systemd has no such files, you are on your own to read documentation.

Why are you expecting other people to do the job for you? there is documentation from thousands of people who have died due to not being able to get help from USAID. musk tried to make the case that no one died on X to which people responded with hundreds of real cases. Musk went real quiet for weeks and in a later interview admitted that he "went overboard". you just want to feel like you are not responsible for making the world a better place if you are separated by fake lines made by people. but any real human being knows they have a responsibility to everyone on earth.

i don't like systemd because it makes very simple things, like running a process on a timer, very complicated. I'm sure it is very powerful but for the average admin who creates one timed process per year it is very complicated. also why the hell did they make the default command output put through a pager that cuts lines off on the right of the screen? that's almost never what i want. clearly the person who did that doesn't come from a terminal command line background.

America did get credit for saving those thousands of lives. Look at how things have changed since you stopped doing it. You are now the most hated country in the world. The thing is, no one ever really liked the US but you did some good things, you had some redeeming qualities so people were indifferent. Now that you have dropped those redeeming qualities people hate you. And every country stands on their own qualities in the same way. It almost sounds like you want praise for USAID but every country does the same thing. The fact that you look for praise to make the world better is just one of the the things people dont like about Americans.

i really don't get what was so bad about her that you gave up your country rather than vote for her. Sure all the DEI was annoying, but it was very clear that Trump was going to enrich himself at the expense of the country. It was the worst kind of overreaction. the kind that causes people to act against their own self interest.
