Here's another good idea coming from the #curl user survey:
Support "curl -h --insecure" etc to output the manpage section for the --insecure command line option in the terminal. Should be possible to work with either long or short versions of command line options.

"Bündnis Verkehrswende Köln will U-Bahntunnel in Innenstadt verhindern
Die aktuelle Beschlussvorlage der Stadt tendiert eher zum Bau eines Tunnels zwischen Heumarkt und Moltkestraße. Jetzt will das Bündnis den Stadtrat vom Gegenteil überzeugen.
Der Ausbau der Straßenbahn ist beim Bündnis Verkehrswende unstrittig. Dass die Strecke durch die Innenstadt dafür untertunnelt werden soll, sorgt bei ihnen allerdings für Kopfschütteln."

The scam-heavy crytpocurrency industry, flush with money from the latest inflated bubble, is pouring vast sums into American elections. Their goal is to to be an unregulated "market" or an industry that is regulated only in ways they like.
Our economy is risky enough now, but this would push it closer to the edge.

Do you think we should create --show-headers the new name (alias) for #curl's --include option, to make it easier to remember and know what it does?

I like “curl_response” if it cannot figure out a base name
And if either curl_response or base name exists, I would expect the files to be named with sequential indexes

While the Mastodon devs are working hard on grouped notifications (oisaur.com/@renchap/1126170078…), I took a separate route to whip up a WIP UI on Phanpy for "timeline of public posts about a trending link" github.com/mastodon/mastodon/p…
Notes:
- This is for upcoming v4.3 (not out yet)
- The copywriting here is tough, settled on "Mentions" for now
- Permalink can't be created for each link as the link can "expire" from trending

"Väčšina sudcov podľa Šamka nechápe, ako ich kolegovia môžu prerušovať trestné stíhania, keď Ústavný súd vo februári pozastavil spornú novelu Trestného zákona ešte skôr, než nadobudla účinnosť, čiže nižšie tresty ani len na sekundu neboli účinné. A ak ich Ústavný súd vyhodnotí ako protiústavné, ani sa nestanú súčasťou právneho systému.
Napriek tomu už stíhaní z tejto novely profitujú."

Mozilla's Original Sin.
Some will tell you that Mozilla's worst decision was to accept funding from Google, and that may have been the first domino, but I hold that implementing DRM is what doomed them, as it led to their culture of capitulation. It demonstrated that their decisions were the decisions of a *company shipping products*, not those of a non-profit devoted to preserving the open web.
Those are different things and are very much in conflict. [...]
jwz.org/b/ykVr
Mozilla was never not shipping DRM.
THe choice they had was integrating with Silverlight / Flash like they used to do, driving all the non-ideology-driven streaming users to other browsers, or just caving in and implementing DRM.
At least the DRM we have now is as open as DRM can be, you can still e.g. control the player from user extensions, block ads, automatically skip intros, stop on subtitles, play more than one stream at once etc. With other technologies, the player was a proprietary blob you could do nothing with.

GitHubMichael Boelen
in reply to daniel:// stenberg:// • • •Nice!
Did you consider adding a help command instead of an option? The option --help now is playing an active role to help the user, but does not influence an actual HTTP request
For Lynis I created a helper "show help", that well, shows help. Without any command, it will give the output as in the screenshot.
Crazy idea: create helper that allows fuzzy search. So "curl help head" will report about --head, but also the relevant lines about doing a HEAD request.
daniel:// stenberg://
in reply to Michael Boelen • • •No, a separate command would lose a lot of the benefit I think because this provides help for the command you obviously already have.
Fuzzy or crazy search is better left for the actual manpage or at least separate work.
