Musk Shuts Down Russian Army Starlink Terminals in Ukraine, Kremlin Forces Lose Internet

Russia’s 800,000-man army invading Ukraine lost its main means of exchanging digital data overnight, but so did a lot of Ukrainian units operating gray market Starlink terminals.

vttest is cool.

I remember running such in the 1980s. At the time it wasn't a C program yet, but a text file and you ran it with simply "cat vttest" at looked at the result.

For vttest terminal needs to implement ESC#8 which according to manual is "used by DIGITAL Manufacturing and Field Service personnel". It fills the screen with 'E's.

In Ukraine beginnt Verifizierung von Starlink – nur Terminals aus „weißer Liste“ werden funktionieren

das hätte man eigentlich schon von Anfang an machen sollen, na ja hinterher ist man immer schlauer. Nur das dieses Versäumnis wahrscheinlich unzählige Menschenleben gekostet hat.

Seizing The Means Of Production (Again)

Since last week, I’ve been hardening my agentbox and webterm setup through sheer friction. The pattern is still the same:(...)

As someone who knows how terminals, and indeed terminal emulators, work (having used actual terminals years ago, and having written several terminal emulators) I encourage you not to promote this AI-generated bunk as a source of learning.

It is incorrect on a lot of points, beginning with erroneous descriptions of the colour models and what line discipline modes the Bourne Again and Z shells use.

There are subtle omissions and errors in the "terminal stack" and TUI sections.

The "how they fit together" part is blatantly wrong, and the descriptions of the shells and the terminal emulators are laughable (but also regurgitate some widespread myths, which is likely why the AI slop here has what it has).

This is a sad+bad successor to the years of answers that I and other people gave on StackExchange and the like.

Tried it. It didn't clear the screen.

Surprisingly, to those of us who grew up with home computers, that's not truly the case.

Day 13 Marks ⚙️:

Marks have some great features, but I found myself not using them often.

We saw on Day 7, that you can substitute on a visual selection, you can actually
do the same with marks in Ex commands:

:'a,'b s/foo/bar/

That will substitute foo by bar between marks `a` and `b`.

Check the link in the thread for more tips about marks
