I have been searching for a simple way to copy loads of text from remote servers for a while. This includes files, but is sometimes also only multiple lines from stdout of a program. Oftentimes this is kinda hard to do in terminal emulators, so I wrote a very small program to copy text via Operating System Commands.

This allows the terminal emulator itself to copy the text directly into the host clipboard. No x11 pass-through needed.

Lots of text editors like vim (with oscyank-plugin) or helix already have a functionality like that, but opening large files just to copy them is stupid (also not all servers I admin have the oscyank or helix even installed).

If you want to know, if your terminal emulator supports osc52, please refer to the oscyank-repo, they have a nice list.

Reminds me of that grandpa playing chess with one hand to give himself a handicap.

Warum finden das hier alle geil, dass die Supermärkte einfach riesige Plätze zubetonieren dürfen und dann trotzdem noch Autos die umliegenden Fußwege zuparken sollen, weil sie "Fremdparker" sind?

Die sollen froh sein, dass der Parkplatz da gebaut werden durfte und dann ihre gierigen Fressen halten!

What is this, a festival starter pack?

All the others have good examples, but I mean something different.

If you search in a forum, you most likely get a thread dedicated to only your problem or something very similar with lots of matching answers (best case)

In Discord you find a question by someone with your exact problem and then 40 messages about other problems, cause there is only a single "problems" channel. This is a god awful experience.

Discord isn't even really searchable on discord. It was never meant for this kind of stuff and it shows.

Hi, I have rephrased the text. The original one is down there.

My laptop is connected to my TV via HDMI. I now want to select a movie on my smartphone, play it on the laptop and output it on my TV.
It seems more comfortable that way than crawling to the laptop and selecting the movie there and then placing it in front of the TV.

I have already gotten some good ways to do that via Jellyfin or through some sort of remote app.

Thank all of you and I will gladly take more ideas. I will test some in the evening.

Original:

I've been searching for a while for a way to watch the videos in my laptop in my TV without having to access my laptop directly.

So I need some kind of webfrontend (preferably a docker container) where I can select my videos via a website and output them through HDMI.

Unfortunately I have not yet found anything like that, mostly because searching it only produces results telling you about streaming services like jellyfin and how to set them up.

Is there a way to do this yet?

It's the same with discord.

Too many communities use discord (or matrix) instead of a real, searchable forum with topics and threads.

Okay, so today I had a weird interaction. My opponent played a temporary lockdown. I exiled it later with my Kaya, Intangible Slayer.

This produces a 1/1 spirit token, that should theoretically exile itself. This did however not happen in Arena. Why is that?

Is it a bug or is there a rule that I don't know?

Apple will have a USB-C connector (capable of fast charging tech), but will only support slow 5V charging (for most non-apple chargers?)...

You appreciate the transcription because you're blind.

I appreciate it, because kbin expands images inelegantly.

We are not the same!

I see Hollywood is now very into the idea of buying something once and then owning it forever and being able to make infinite copies. Which. Isn't quite the message they imparted upon me in my childhood. I the spirit of their own long-held stance:

A photoshopped version of the "You wouldn't download a car" ad saying: "You wouldn't download an actor"

Sci-Hub anyone?

Alexandra Elbakyan manages this truly awesome source of scientific papers completely on her own. She got sued twice and lost, had to change the URL multiple times due to takedowns and only gets along by donations.
