    It's just that this site is "News for nerd, Stuff that matters", and instead we get this... this... I don't know how to call it, but "News for nerds" it ain't. That's it, boycott non-nerd stories!!!

    When you copy the line, don't just select from start to end, but include the new line.

    That is, start at the beginning of the command, click, and just pull down one line.
    You will select the newline as well, which will also paste the enter.
