I started Game Grumps over a decade ago, and still enjoy most videos to one degree or another. Most games they don’t finish, but they always have at least one game that they are working through

I agree, the blocker issue’s solution is not one I would have stumbled across. Well played.

Putting aside the “should/shouldn’t do” argument, I was also wondering if the code is even viable. I imagine that ‘ls’ and ‘sudo’ are probably pretty ubiquitous, but I bet there exist some Linux installs out there with a different shell than ‘bash’, and some might not have ‘grep’ too. That would lead to some pretty cryptic bugs for the end user, eh?

This song and album were pretty formative in my metal journey. I remember that opening riff exploding out the gate, with its off-kilter bounce, and thinking I had never heard anything so cool and technical.

I have a personal run of thumb. It’s got a thousand and one exceptions, but seems to work a good amount of the time, for what it’s worth.

Hard rock songs tend to have guitar-lite verses. As in, the verse seems to often feature just the bass and drums as instrumentation, or the guitar doing minimal legwork (read: a start-stop non-riff, or sometimes acoustic noodling), before exploding into existence for a powerful (pre-)chorus.

On the other hand, metal tends to be guitar-forward most of the time. The verse/chorus divide is usually heralded by switching riffs, or, in the case of symphonic and folk subgenres, the introduction of other instruments besides guitar.

Yeah, I’ve implemented OTP before, and I can think of no way this could be a surveillance move. If they required you use their app because they use a custom solution, sure, maybe, but they’re OTP is currently entirely standard, so you can use a plethora of app (or roll your own in about 14 lines of Python)
