i had to listen to an absolutely unhinged dude yesterday, who thinks biden/kamala not saying "KILL THEM ALL KILL KILL KILL GO BIBI GO KILL" means they're going to "betray" israel...

it was bad.

vidir is similar

there's also rename (the perl one, not the shit one). i have fond memories of renaming albums with rename 's/(\d+)/sprintf "%02d", $1/e' so they'd ls in the correct order

i rely on this in my job. if i really need it, i'll be using it often enough that it'll always be in ^R distance :)

no, tmux is a newer screen. some of us havent switched cos we're too lazy i guess? i think the common wisdom is that it's better. i havent tried cos i already know enough of screen and it's fine for me

  • atools, which includes als, aunpack, apack. so you can stop caring about the kind of archive and just unpack it. it also saves you from shit archives that have multiple files/dirs in their root.
  • perl -e / perl -lne / ...
  • units
  • bc - a calculator that's actually good
  • pass - the only non-shit password store tool i've found so far. no gui, uses gpg and git to do the encrypting and storage/sharing
  • alias lr='ls -lrth' - so you can easily find the newest file, cos that's frequently what you want
  • unip - my script to look up things in the unicode db
  • find -type f -exec xzgrep 're' {} + - because xzgrep cant do -r

oh yeah, and for the shell readline, alt-b, alt-f, ctrl-w, ctrl-u, ctrl-k, ctrl-a, ctrl-e

i used to recommend linux to people. but that also meant that i became their tech support person.

i no longer advise anyone to use anything. i just want them to not ask me to troubleshoot their stuff.
