    You don't understand how people can stand to use graphical file managers like Nautilus and Explorer, since they don't support wildcards, regexes, tab completion, backticks, perl -e, or even basic history and command editing.

    Nice! There are some times when I prefer the CLI, but some when I prefer Nautilus or every other one that I use.

    YKYGW you think is it legal to embed an SVG using the <img> tag?

    Explorer++ supports wildcards. Alas, Windows only.

    When you and your wife are watching a movie or TV and when ever someone mentions something Techy, she asks... "Are they making sense?"

    (this has been the case for me since I mention they were just talking a bunch meaningless jargon, on something we were watching a while ago.)

    YKYAGW...

    You install operating systems (like puppy) manually by copying/extracting files, and adding the necessary GRUB entries.

    I would say that REAL geeks program their own OS, using butterflies.

    They open out their hands and let the butterflies flap their delicate wings. This causes small air currents in the upper atmosphere to focus cosmic rays onto their openned hard disk platters, flipping bits until they have the perfect operating system, software, and all desired documents for next year's PhD. **

    You know you're a geek when you dream in code.
