I’ve had to learn heavy duty bashing for work, and happily did take the plunge. However, they also had me learn PHP and I’ll drop this as a hook and line for OP: you can do shell-script duties with PHP also, and once you hit your head on sed enough times, I hope you remember me telling this. All that string manipulation is much nicer with PHP functions, and for running shell commands there is shell_exec(). :)

I recently discovered kmscon: a hardware accelerated utf-8 & emoji capable replacement for the standard Linux console. Put that on.

This is likely the case for a lot of items that the common guy wouldn’t give a second thought about.

My hot tip: initial capital so that your aliases are just a capital letter + tab away. Cache cleanup, update and Bleachbit:

alias Päivi=‘sudo pacman -Suy --noconfirm’

alias Siivous=‘sudo pacman -Sc --noconfirm;sudo pacman -Rns –noconfirm $(sudo pacman -Qtdq)’

alias SuurSiivous=‘sudo bleachbit -c system.trash system.ro tated_logs system.localizations java.cache journald.clean b ash.history’

same! came to say that this was the last windows I ever installed.

Looks like the fix is likely already in the kernel. Patches have been submitted towards the end of December 2023. Remember this won’t help if you use an old kernel (Arch, BTW, has the latest :o)

2023 14-inch oled i5 here. there was an easy fix for no audio on speakers, a udev drop-in iirc. it’s been an awesome machine all round. on mobile now but i might post a link later.

GNU Guix. Need to do an Ayahuasca ceremony sometimes and try again with a much more radiant mind.

Finland enjoyed a parody called Star Wreck around the turn of the millennium with plenty of just this :D
