DaemonFC[m]$25 million fine. Eh...Jan 09 01:52
DaemonFC[m]The funny part is Microsoft violates tons of software troll patents.Jan 09 01:52
DaemonFC[m]They ended up paying like $100 million or something to a patent troll over "product activation".Jan 09 01:53

DaemonFC[m]And I was mad as hell over it.Jan 09 02:02
DaemonFC[m]Well, it's an attempt to take away rights the user normally has under the law.Jan 09 02:02
DaemonFC[m]If a computer running Windows 2000 broke down, and you wanted to, copyright law says "Just put Windows 2000 on your new computer. Just only use one copy at a time.".Jan 09 02:02

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-@schestowitz@joindiaspora.com: I'm sure this was asked before, but unsure what to search or how to phrase it: Say you have 10 windows (terminal, browser, text editor....) open in #gnu #linux and you want to paste the same text into all of them in one go. Is there a tool for this? Jan 09 04:55
schestowitzdoes anyone have an idea?Jan 09 04:55
schestowitzI can find nothingJan 09 04:55
schestowitzI need this for  terminalsJan 09 04:56
schestowitzsaving thousands of clicksJan 09 04:56
MinceRthere are terminal emulators that can send the same thing to multiple panes/tabs/windows/whateverJan 09 05:03
MinceRmaybe even tmux can do itJan 09 05:03
schestowitzyes, also ksshJan 09 05:03
schestowitzbut...Jan 09 05:03
MinceRat the very least, in tmux you can script sending stuff as input and switching buffersJan 09 05:04
schestowitzthose are sort of native to themselvesJan 09 05:04
schestowitznot holistic for the whole desktop sessionJan 09 05:04
schestowitzhere's another way to ask thisJan 09 05:04
MinceRsince nvim is also a terminal multiplexer, it can probably do thisJan 09 05:04
schestowitzdo we have command lines tools that work on a browser, like issue command <paste x in browser element>?Jan 09 05:04
schestowitzbecause I could at least script something from bashJan 09 05:05
MinceRyou might be able to do it with xdotool to arbitrary X windowsJan 09 05:05
schestowitzsocial control media is too fragmentedJan 09 05:05
schestowitzI'm tired of clicking so many thingsJan 09 05:05
MinceRfor browser elements, not sure. maybe selenium?Jan 09 05:05
schestowitzoh, I see...  xbottool I suppose deals with screen coordsJan 09 05:06
MinceRheadless browsers like phantomjs might helpJan 09 05:07
schestowitzdepends if the sites support theseJan 09 05:07
schestowitzthey're js bloatJan 09 05:07
MinceRthese might allow you to run your own js code to manipulate the sitesJan 09 05:07
schestowitzI support I could position the browser and script the pattern of clicksJan 09 05:07
schestowitzthough some pages would 'move' amid postingJan 09 05:08
MinceRthere's also xsendkey and sendkeys, but i don't know how they differ from xdotoolJan 09 05:08

DaemonFC[m]But a draft would have to be passed by Congress and signed by the President anyway, so it's pretty likely the law would be changed while they were at it.Jan 09 22:45
DaemonFC[m]I broke the law there.Jan 09 22:48
DaemonFC[m]I registed when I was 18 so I could get federal funded job training.Jan 09 22:48
DaemonFC[m]Then I never updated my address with them again.Jan 09 22:48
