  • It depends on how the document is written, but \> stops matching on a period, comma, apostrophe, space, newline, what have you. Word boundary matching is just very handy.

    As to why its that set of characters… Honestly I have no idea :) Regexes are just what they are and I assume the special escape made sense to the inventor at least.

    You may not hear this from others, but I would NOT switch your phone OS and desktop OS at the same time. Assuming you live a digital life there is just TOO MUCH to have to deal with while dealing with tbe hassle of things that don’t make sense, or require you to stop what you’re doing and google the answer.

    I love /e/OS and would absolutely recommend it, but there are just shortcomings that slow me down all the time (are you OK with the play store compatibility suddenly stopping and you cant download apps - do you wait and see if it starts working after a few minutes? reboot your phone? Log out and back into your google account? Switch to/from anonymous? This happens more than I think folks would readily admit and the solution is just different each time)

    Once you are up and running fot a few weeks with whatever change you want to make first then sure go for the other one.

    Best of luck!

    The female presenting character on the right says that the male presenting one on the left becomes her in the future, and is gay. When he says he ‘likes girls’ she agrees, because a trans woman who likes women would be considered gay.

    There are some assumptions I’m making , but I believe this is the intended meaning.

    From what I’m reading, autoclean would remove any local packages which couldn’t be download (i.e. they are out of date). This would indeed fix the issue, but your packages could still be missing critical udpates.

    When possible you should definitely run ‘sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade’ to get the latest stuff installed. If it says you’re up to date then that’s awesome and no further action is needed.







  • Yes you’ll fuck things up. Don’t keep anything remotely important on it and screw around with it. That’s how you learn. Blow your install away intentionally, try a different distribution the next time. There’s a lot more variability between distros, and more customizability compared to Windows too.

    If you want to learn something new and different anyway. It’s definitely not like Windows except at the most surface level; you can get by in the GUI for almost everything until something goes wrong, but that’s exactly when you want to have been learning cmdline stuff, so you can try to salvage it.
