  • I don’t see a reason to spell it phonetically when it is a real word (forge in esperanto). A phonetic spelling would also only be more digestible to readers who know the language the phonetic spelling is tailored at (phonetic spelling is language specific as different languages use different ways to represent different sounds).

    ĝ is simply the english sound of the consonants in the following words: “john”, “gem”, “jar”. And j is pronounced as the y in “yes” and “yoink”

    The diacritic would clear up confusion, because “g” without the diacritic has different sound (like the g in “gamma”, “girl”, “go” in english). The diacritic as a bonus would also makes it clear that it isn’t supposed to be pronounced it as if it were in english, because english does not use the ^ diacritic. It would also extinguish my annoyance at seeing a misspelled word being used as a trademark.



  • Btw, what is a non-local RSS reader? I have come across multiple that RSS readers that advertise being “self-hosted” and I’m confused about that since in my mind RSS readers are simply clients that periodically query different servers for an .rss file, so I’m confused about where there is anything to host besides the host of the .rss feed.

    echo and alias are both shell commands. If the shell is running (which it obviously still is), those commands should still work, as it does not involve reading data from disk, but from memory.

    Edit: I just noticed the picture said cd was not found, which is also a shell built-in. So, I don’t know.
