Specializing in highly inappropriate use of '#!/usr/bin/env bash'
In #TodaysRantFromCostco, people who will sit in the middle of the road waiting 6 minutes with their blinker on for a parking spot that is 4 spots closer to the door than an open spot should be put on Costco membership probation

I look forward to #Apple now changing the way AirDrop works, just as a 'fuck you' to #Google for figuring it out, and breaking it for #Android users just trying to share things with their friends - 9to5google.com/2025/11/20/a...

@samreich.bsky.social Just curious, was the last episode of Game Changer inspired at all by the party game "You can't say umm" - bigpotato.com/products/you...

@plex.tv While I've had a lifetime pass for many years now, and I'll be unaffected by the changes you're making this year, locking remote playback behind a plex pass paywall is some USDA Prime, Grade A, Premium Quality™️ bullshit. I get you have to make money, but that's not the way to do it.

I came across the #Google spec sheet for #bash scripts, which says bash scripts be 100 lines max, if it's more you should use a real language. But with enough semi colons, any bash script can be a one line script! So I wrote a (one liner) to turn any bash script into a one liner: y.goose.ws/2q9
They say if it's more than 100 lines, you should write it in a real language, instead of bash. I say, with enough semicolons, any bash script can be a one line bash script.

May I present my first Blue Sky post. Allow me to share a short (11 line) #bash script I wrote: y.goose.ws/1v7. Its purpose is to take a video, and compress it down to 6 MB so it can be sent via #Discord. I tested it with a 30min/4K/6 GB file, and the result was an absolute abomination. Enjoy!
Usage is: ./tiny-video.bash "/path/to/input/file.mkv" "/path/to/output/file.mp4"
