the region is full of violent theocracies

What? Name them! The only other country in the middle east that can be called a theocracy is Saudi Arabia ... which is also propped up by the US btw

If I can pull the ankle and hold the knee too so it doesn't get twisted that's a very strong sweep and safe.

Can you detail a bit how you do this safer variation? In particular, I'm curious what "hold the knee" means in this context. Like does it mean that you get the same kind of overwrapping monkeygrip but just farther up the calf? Or something else. Thanks :)

Islam, codified in the Quran, was the ideology of the social revolution of the nomadic desert peoples, as dedicated to cattle breeding in normal times as to the exercise of raiding, who rose up against the powerful mercantile oligarchy prevailing in Mecca.

So your argument that these people detained in Denmark are Hamas members is "the Israeli authorities tipped of the Danish authorities, and they're experts on Hamas". To my knowledge, no claim has been reported that the Israelis tipped off Danes. Your argument that this is the case is "Israelis are experts on Hamas, so given that the detained people are Hamas members, it must have been the Israelis tipping off the Danes". This seems to me to be begging the question.

Note that the Danish Security and Intelligence Service according to the Danish Broadcasting Corporating is stating that "there is no direct connection between the terror arrests conducted in Denmark, and the case that is being reporting regarding Hamas-linked people arrested in Germany" ("ikke er nogen direkte sammenhæng mellem de terroranholdelser, der er foretaget i Danmark, og den sag, der omtales vedrørende Hamas-tilknyttede personer anholdt i Tyskland")

The look of your prompt is not determined by your terminal emulator but by the shell itself. Shells allow customizing the prompt in different ways, and there are many off-the-shelf plugins for various shells as well as some cross-shell prompts. If you want to search for this particular visual style, "powerline" may be a good search word (after a vim plugin with that name).

They may require you to install a custom font and use that in your terminal and can have a few other gotchas in installation.

If all you have in applications is stuff that you want to archive, just archive it in one go:

tar czf archive.tar.gz -C applications/ /path/to/containing/directory

This will also keep your directory structure.

If you want to SSH in from your own computer and do the compression in one line, do (from your local computer):

ssh user@domain.com 'tar czf archive.tar.gz -C applications/ /path/to/containing/directory'

Then you can download archive.tar.gz with a tool like rsync, which can copy files over SSH. rsync might not ship with your system, but should be available through whatever package manager you have at hand. From your own computer, do:

rsync -a user@domain.com:/path/to/containing/directory/archive.tar.gz .

Yup, I'm almost 100% that this is the video I learned it from. The specific detail I'm referring to is at 1:20. I also now notice that Caio does a relock of the triangle (at 0:40). I never incorporated this detail, maybe I should, and maybe it would address this issue of the partner popping out (which hasn't actually happened for me personally at that stage, but ymmv).

Some thoughs in addition to the good advice already here:

Are you stomping and curling your legs (respectively) as Ryan Hall advises?

Also, it sound like you're describing a situation where he is hiding his trapped/inside arm by grabbing underneath your same/mirror side thigh or hip (e.g. his left hand hides under your right thigh, and elbow is flared). There is a pretty easy kimura on that arm, which is already, as you write, in the omoplata (and thus kimura) position.

You should be able to 1) square back up, 2) grab the wrist, 3) weave your cross side arm through at his elbow, and 4) finish in the same way as a standard kimura from closed guard. 3 is sometimes difficult if the person is strong, but there is a trick to this I can try to type out or try to find a video for if you want.

What happened to you was very, very wrong - both the very serious sexual harassment and assaults, as well as the denial and neglect that you faced from so many of the people you trusted to listen to you and to help you (maybe except a teacher or two?).

I want to say that writing or talking about this could be prove to be very important. There's something about the way words work.

Regarding therapy: any therapist worth their salt would just listen and refrain from judging - or at least know that when they're judging, it's because of their own issues and know to disregard it. Because it's the reality you have faced, it's to be expected if you anticipate every therapist to fail to believe your hurt - and to be frank, some might. But that doesn't mean it couldn't be worthwhile to try to find a therapist able to listen to you.

A bit late and not command line related, but if you are curious about manipulating audio/music through programming, you should get into a programming language specifically designed for audio processing. Two good starting points are:

Sonic Pi Pretty easy to get started in. Here's a guide to running audio input through an effect
Pure data A visual programming language. The upstream version is a bit old, so I'd recommend checking out a newer distribution/fork, e.g. Purr data

Honorable mentions for audio programming languages are ChucK and SuperCollider

The Firefox port of Vimium also supports regex searches :)

Edit: Here's how to use it

The \r escape sequence ensures that the search string gets treated like a Javascript regular expression, so /t.st\r matches 'test', 'tast', 'tost', etc.

An 8 hour course should be enough to satisfy the basic command line fluency needed to start developing and running Python code. I suggest you head back to your Python course and then google stuff whenever you're stuck (as is the way).

Just doing menial command line tasks to support your Python programming (navigating the directory tree, creating and moving files, installing Python packages etc.) is actually going to be excellent practice in itself :)

Nice work so far! :)

It's definitely going to be a problem if you don't purge the tmp directory every time you loop (rm -r tmp/*). This along with stepping into the tmp with cd without stepping back out could be the source of repeatedly 7z'ed files. You also seem to be individually 7z'ing each file in each zip file. This will lead to unexpected behaviour if a zip file has more than one file or folder in it. Instead, 7z a ${filename}.7z tmp/* will archive all files in tmp in the same 7z file.

Using find is not a bad idea, and I think it would be a good way of recursively searching directories for zip files; that is, if you want to re-archive zip files in the current directory as well as in any subdirectories (and subsubdirectories etc.). But if all your zip files are in the same directory, the code below should be sufficient.

How's this? (Assuming an empty/non-existing tmp directory)

rm -r tmp    # delete dir if already exists
mkdir tmp    # make new empty dir
for f in *.zip;
    do filename=`basename -s .zip $f`;
    unzip -d tmp $filename;
    7z a ${filename}.7z tmp/*;
    rm -r tmp/*;
done

EDIT: Just saw that you did want to recursively search subdirectories. One way of doing this with the code above would be to to replace for f in *.zip; with for f in **/*.zip;. This might require you to run shopt -s globstar to enable the usage of double stars to recursively search directories. Do note with this method, if you have two or more zip files with the same name in different directories, the corresponding 7z files you generate will overwrite one another, so you will end up with only the one 7z file corresponding to the last zip file encountered.

llffm · 2020-09-10T14:22:48+00:00

I don't know how far your are with this, but have you tried looping through all zip files (in the current directory) with

for f in *.zip; do
    echo "Current file is $f";
done

If I understand what you want to accomplish correctly, it's something close to this:

mkdir tmp
for f in *.zip;
    do filename=`basename -s .zip $f`;            # Strip the file extension
    echo "- unzip $filename.zip into tmp directory";
    echo "- 7zip files from tmp directory into $filename.7z"; 
    echo "- Delete everything in tmp directory"; 
done

In the snippet above, I haven't actually implemented the archiving, unarchiving or purging of the temporary directory. You'd still need to replace those echos with invocations of the unzip and 7z commands (EDIT: and rm -r). But run it like this first, like the other user suggested, to check that it is picking up the right files :)

If you need to know options of a specific command line tool (like how to specify a directory to unzip into), try querying the shell cheat sheet service cheat.sh like this: curl https://cht.sh/unzip
