It’s long running, so you want a database so you can store your state. If you’re storing state, locking it into a state machine makes sense.
I do agree with some of the commenters that making it closer to an event source design would make more sense still.
I used to run a plugin on my Kodi that would make TV-style channels based on the original airing channel, complete with EPG and everything.
However, it wouldn’t let you add lists of shows and create channels that way. I never got around to making my version, but perhaps someone else has done the work since then.
It’s so rare that we get a new video, but it’s always a special day when it happens.
This is probably too late to be useful, but what’s on markdownguide.org works:
Or
It’s not 1a, but it is how you do sublists.
Just a heads up: not all plants like this because the tannic acid can make the soil too acidic for them.
Parth Ferengi’s Heart Place
It’s can’t be anything else, surely! I kinda want that ep to have a character that can’t act.
I think the author’s intended implication is absolutely that it’s a dollar because the USA invented the computer. The two problems I have is that:
It’s just a lazy bit of thinking in an otherwise excellent and internationally-minded article and so it stuck out to me too.
The stupid thing is, all the author had to do was write “kind of tells you who invented ASCII” and he’d have been 100% right in his logic and history.
Darmok and Jalad on the ocean.
As I was reading the article, I was thinking how glad I was that I switched - I am on the yearly plan now because I’m not going back to “free” search engines.
I’d add that Picard now also has spoilers for DS9.
It allows me to connect into the house via the VPS without opening ports or knowing my home address.
Nowadays there are various companies offering tunnelling services, but my setup has been working for a long time and I see no reason to change.
It’s the root OS; that Pi is a media centre in the living room (plus it’s taken on a few extra duties since it’s always online). It’s been going for a good few years now, 8+?
I’ve been running OSMC (Kodi on Debian) plus a few useful things like maintaining a reverse SSH connection to a VPS.
He always mysteriously gets frail and feeble-minded when it’s time for him to have to testify in court. Once that’s over his memory magically returns to him and he goes back to his mafia don mode.
There was a hack in 2011 where The Sun’s website claimed Murdoch was dead.

This takes you to the search results so it’s an extra click to get to the actual page.
My actual regex is a bit more complicated since it deals with multiple domains but that’s the gist.
I’ve been using Kagi for two months and I’m loving it - the ability to control your results is amazing. Some things I do:
Also, having keyboard controls - like Google used to have - is so welcome, and their AI summarisation tools are actually useful too.
What’s this easy fix then? Just a lower number? That will just mean more publishers.
AI detection tools don’t work, and humans aren’t much better, unless they’re subject experts. How do we stop AI books?
The article mentions that Hurd is also a recursive acronym, but doesn’t go into any more details.
After looking it up on Wikipedia, I see why not:
It’s time [to] explain the meaning of “Hurd”. “Hurd” stands for “Hird of Unix-Replacing Daemons”. And, then, “Hird” stands for “Hurd of Interfaces Representing Depth”. We have here, to my knowledge, the first software to be named by a pair of mutually recursive acronyms.
I assume it’s the standard inertia-type reasons: doing nothing is easier than changing a bunch of stuff, not changing involves fewer unknowns, and they probably have ad blockers and custom rules that mean they don’t personally have to deal with the worst of it.
