Care to elaborate?

For me, it once caused an issue once when I thought I was deleting files to make space for /boot/efi/ being at capacity (dual booting issues at the time) when in actuality I was just moving files to an impromptu trash can created on /boot/efi (so the lack of space remained the same lol), but on numerous occasions, it has actually saved my ass and allowed me to retrieve documents that I realized I needed to look at again.

The only other quirk is it straight up ignores all options, so I've tried to delete interactively (rm -i) and then had to use trash-list to view the deleted files

Good to see someone else using trash & bat. Kudos for the clean alias file w/ commented headers too! I just started doing it recently and it makes edits/additions so much easier

Care to share the lofi mpv one? I use both lol

Thanks for sharing, likely will implement this!

When I switched to KDE I started using kate, but I used to have code as my vscodium alias as well. One interesting thing is seeing how similar people think. No wonder standard password guesses are so easy lol.

On a related note, I tried to make my SSH port based on the letters turned into numbers and realized that had been done before and was google-able also lol

Digging the systemctl ones. I added myself to the group so that I wouldn't have to write sudo each time, but I might as well alias the entire prompt for restart and status to make it even shorter

Ahhh I was wondering what that was as a fellow kbin-er. I was pleasantly surprised when I found out I could create threads across the fediverse today as a consolation.

Good to see another exa user. Care to break down what yay does btw?

(Bash-Specific)

App-Specific

    
alias battery='upower -i $(upower -e | grep 'BAT') | grep -E "state|to\ full|percentage"' # Get the battery level of my laptop server when I ssh into it

alias audio="yt-dlp -f 'ba' -x --audio-format mp3" # Download the audio version of a youtube video

alias wttr="curl wttr.in/Chicago" # Get the weather of my city in the terminal


  

Terminal Navigation

    
alias ba2sy="cp ~/.bash_aliases ~/Sync/" # copy my current iteration of my aliases to my shared syncthing folder so that it's accessible across devices

alias sy2ba="cp ~/Sync/.bash_aliases ~/" # replace the current iteration of my aliases w/ the synced version from my syncthing folder

alias mba='micro .bash_aliases' # open my aliases file in the modernized version of 'nano'

alias reload="source ~/.bashrc" # Quickly refresh my system so that the latest alias file is loaded

alias l='exa --group-directories-first -hlras modified --no-user --icons' # exa is a prettier version of ls. Options toggled: Human-readable, long format, reverse output, show hidden files/folders, sort by modified, hide the 'user' column since I'm the only one that uses the computer, and show the icons to make it look fancy


  

Replaced Commands

    
alias cat='batcat --theme=ansi ' # Replace generic output of cat w/ a formatted version. This is bat (batcat in Debian)

alias rm='trash ' # Instead of auto-deleting files, put them in the 'trash' bin for 30 days, then delete.


  

Server & Docker-related

    
alias lazy='/home/macallik/.local/bin/lazydocker' # Run Docker

alias pad='ssh MyPad20334' # shorthand to ssh into my server


  

Say what you will about the seemingly 'half-pregnant' approach, but I'm running a Debian laptop/desktop/server thanks to being able to dip my toes in via WSL (and truly testing the water via Crostini that did the trick).

Today's WSL user is tomorrow's Linux convert after a few more negative articles and BSODs

I only use it so that I can watch DRM content (Udemy, HBO, etc)

I'm sure that Fox News bringing on a democrat will have the same effect as CNN doing a townhall for Trump.

In what world would I give Fox News any clicks to 'see a Dem own a conservative'

Thanks for sharing! I think I'll implement the alias in the near future once I get more comfortable w/ Docker

The lure of far right themes are globalized admittedly

• Hates migrants
• Ravaged by a drug crisis
• Glorifies the past as a 'simpler' time (even while acknowledging that this time had apartheid)

From MAGA to South Africa to Eastern Europe

Good read, provided context that I didn't have before as a newbie

Mines too. Glad it's happening tho to circumvent the e-waste from those that aren't as aware/adventurous.

Beat me to it. I wouldn't give viewership to Fox News to watch conservatives get 'owned'

Way to go Cali!

In the video he provides additional use cases outside of crashes. If I'm understanding it correctly, one is the ability to seamlessly transition across and/or run multiple DE's in real-time, and the second is reimagining app loading by being able to restore apps from the disk as if they never left RAM. Someone please correct me if I misinterpreted this

Very similar experience. He did a good job of building to the "Ok but why does this matter" aspect of it all
