BASH noscript seems to.. hang? Pushover

Hi,

I have a noscript that monitors a log file and sends a Pushover when a match has found. However, it seems to hang?

​

​

#!/bin/bash
tail -f /var/log/rfc/rfc.log | awk '/admin/ { system("curl -s --max-time 20 -F \"token=TOKEN\" -F \"user=USER\" -F \"noscript=test\" -F \"message=test\" https://api.pushover.net/1/messages.json

TIL about vipe

`vipe` is a tool to run an editor in a Unix pipelines like `... | vipe | ...`. I wanted to write something like this myself to inspect pipelines like `curl ... | sh` until I realized that this exists. It's contained in the `moreutils` package in Ubuntu and Fedora.

Maybe it's useful for someone else.

What would linux to be the spiritual successor to?

Hey, consider that Linux has evolved throughout the years. I remember that there were a few games to run in Linux, and that has changed since. I have had better success running older windows games on Linux than the current windows. So I want to ask what you guys would consider Linux as the spiritual successor to (Amiga or Atari ST), since both of those went against Ibm-compatiable PC and Mac.

Imagine trying to pull antivirus marketing style scaremongering on linux users. Simply amazing.

Hope the new 20.04 releases are will include mmx64.efi and save us Acer users a lot of trouble!

As you all know this particular OEM sucks when it comes to installing Linux on it's laptops.
The BIOS is complete mess.
And I had really bad time trying to put some distributions on my laptop.
They just don't start because that thing is missing.
I hope people involved in the development can see this and do something about it because for newcomers it will be a deal breaker and will leave the wrong impression about Linux.

What is the state of webcam driver support on Linux ?

Hi all ! Having time to spare in this self isolating situation, I was trying to read up on webcam drivers and it seems this is mainly provided by the [UVC project](http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/). Looking at the [git repo](https://git.linuxtv.org/pinchartl/uvcvideo.git/) however it doesn't seem to be updated recently (I might be looking at the wrong repo). Does this mean that UVC no longer has any active maintainers ?

How come there have been to updates to the [USB UVC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_video_device_class) specification since 2012 ? Are things moving to a new direction ?

Thanks !
