It's probably there just because it was one of the many files preinstalled on one of Epstein's computers that the FBI nabbed. Still funny.

Thank fuck I switched to Zsh

I hate how I need to put URLs in quotes now that I switched to zsh. But over 2025 I finally internalized the fact that I have to.

Otherwise, as a CLI novice, I have not noticed much being different.

(macOS, I finally ran the command to upgrade a year or two ago)

you didn't have to put urls in quotes on bash? strange, for me not doing that always led to strange behavior.

I wouldn’t be surprised that it was just the few things I use that didn’t care. YouTube-dl was one of them. I wouldn’t be surprised if I was living a lie, and zsh enforced what should have been normal across the board.

I’m not that aware or savvy about the structure of the terminal and what a shell even is. 😅
