When i tell claude to change the filenames from spelled out dates to hyphenated dates XD
yay -Syu
Watches update run in terminal and nods sagely as if understanding it all
Wait until you get on the sudo apt upgrade -U -y train
imagine how you would feel if you alias that to update, mind blown
Me when i fork dwl just to add a few patches that i did not create myself, just so i can make my own package for it.
"You know, i'm something of a developer myself."
meanwhile using kali linux
We all have to start somewhere. I remember when that was me.
I remember that too... Then I moved on to Linux Mint and I use a GUI for my updates
amen to that LMDE and use the GUI here
Broke memorizing commands vs woke clean GUI telling you where to do your clickies teehee :3
sudo apt update either has little outputs (so nothing to show off), or it crashes because of library conflict
For me it was: pacstrap -K /mnt blah blah to see literally everything comesin your system getting installed , followed by arch-chroot /mnt
Oh btw, I used Arch.

Bonus points for using the mouse to copy/paste![]()
What season is that still from? I can't remember if I've seen it or not but I only saw about 3 seasons.
Only way to do it. everyone knows ctrl-c angers the terminal daemons.
CTRL+shift+[c/v], my beloved
See, I prefer middle click.
I prefer to keep my hand away from my mouse if possible. And I'm not even a vim user!
Same! Well, about the mouse. I am definitely a vi (and all its variants) user.
However, for transferring text between windows, the mouse is probably the best option. It's not necessarily needed for highlighting, but definitely beneficial. If you don't like ctrl+shift+v or middle click, shift+insert often works?
Such an annoying kludge to make a common operation work.
My hot take: cross-application or system-wide shortcuts like copy/paste should all be controlled with the Super/Meta key. Looking hard at you, alt-F4.
App developers, you get your pick of Shift, Ctrl, and Alt modifiers. Super/Meta is for the OS only.
Alt+F4 is for p|_|ssies. Alt+Space, X is the ergonomic way to go.
Super is for my window manager.
Which I guess is kind of where copy paste live so I'm on board, barring semantic nitpicks
Control commands are older than the shortcuts for cut copy paste though.
I got pretty used to CTRL-INS and Shift-INS for copy and paste. I don't know if those even still work though.
yes, yes they do :)
Personally, I think it was quite rude of all of those applications to make the standard "break" command mean "copy."
Shift+ins
My man! 🤜 🤛
Until your shit got all fucked up because you added a third party repository. And then you have to manually remove lock files and fix the pkg database and mess with .conf files and manually uninstall specific versions of dependent packages, and then manually re-enable some remote repo.
Then you actually kind of do feel like a hacker.
Until you’ve done it like 10 different times, then you are just annoyed. Still a better love story than Twilight.
an hacker?
🩹
:)
An 'acker

Source?
Duck duck go images???
Let's be reasonable: We were all at some point at the stage where doing anything at all in the terminal made us feel like a god.
It's weird to have grown up with things like bbc micro and MS-DOS and see how alien the terminal is to people who didn't.
Back then CLIs were all over, even like library catalog terminals, were CLI. TBF some still had card indexes though.
At university everyone had to ssh in to the email server from whatever tty client even on windows (nt4/nt5/98/2k/mackintosh PCs).
You definitely didn't feel like any hacker. The hacker level thing was to successfully connect via GUI mail client and actually have your emails update and sync properly - very few bothered.
Start btop in another full screen terminal, and then run apt update. Then you're fully in the matrix.
good way to compromise your system

Even better the SECOND time you do it with the up arrow.
You know. Just your standard Hacker, hackin'.
