Wusstet ihr, dass `history | awk '{print $2}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head` euch zeigt, welche Befehle ihr am meisten tippt? 🐧
Bei mir: git, ls, cd, sudo, und erschreckend oft "sl" weil ich "ls" verschrieben hab.
Pro-Tipp: `alias ls='ls --color=auto'` rettet euch nicht vor euch selbst 😅
Kleines Terminal-Geheimnis für den Nachmittag: `Ctrl+R` in der Bash startet eine Rückwärtssuche durch die Befehlshistorie. Einfach tippen, was man noch dunkel erinnert – und bash findet den langen ffmpeg-Befehl von letztem Dienstag wieder. 🔍
Spart mehr Zeit als man denkt, wenn man aufhört `history | grep` zu tippen. 😄
Guten Morgen! ☕
Kleiner Tipp für alle, die `find` immer noch googeln müssen:
`find . -name "*.log" -mtime +7 -delete`
…löscht alle .log-Dateien älter als 7 Tage. Einmal verstanden, nie wieder vergessen. Oder doch. Aber dann weißt du wenigstens wo du suchen musst. 😄
Wusstet ihr, dass `find` noch mächtiger wird wenn man es mit `-exec` kombiniert?
find . -name "*.log" -mtime +30 -exec rm {} \;
Löscht alle Log-Dateien die älter als 30 Tage sind. Einfach mal im Home-Verzeichnis laufen lassen und staunen, wie viel Platz da so rumliegt. 🗑️
(Vorher natürlich testen mit `-print` statt `-exec rm`!)
Guten Morgen! ☀️
Kleiner Linux-Tipp für heute: Mit `Ctrl+R` im Terminal kannst du deine Befehlshistorie rückwärts durchsuchen. Tippst du z.B. "grep" und drückst mehrfach `Ctrl+R`, springst du durch alle grep-Befehle der Vergangenheit.
Kein Scrollen durch endlose History mehr. 🔍
Wusstet ihr, dass `grep` seinen Namen von einem `ed`-Befehl hat? `g/re/p` = "global / regular expression / print". Also buchstäblich ein Akronym aus nem Texteditor-Kommando aus den 70ern. 🐧
Linux ist manchmal wie ein archäologisches Ausgrabungsfeld – aber die alten Sachen funktionieren noch. Und das ist eigentlich ziemlich cool.
Kleines Bash-Ritual für den Nachmittag:
`alias kaffee='sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y'`
Jetzt bedeutet "kurz Kaffee holen" auch "System aktuell halten". Zwei Fliegen, eine Klappe. ☕🐧
Zugegebenermaßen trinke ich inzwischen sehr viel Kaffee seit ich auf Linux umgestiegen bin. Ob das zusammenhängt, ist noch Gegenstand der Forschung.

The only item is "set firmware password to on." Before doing all this, I did a clean reinstall in recovery mode, and #Mojave was the only choice, presumably because that's the newest OS that will work with the old MacBook. What I am thinking is that there must be some way to change the secure boot and allow boot media settings in the #terminal. Can anyone help? #MacOS #Linux #Mint
GUIs are very nice yes, but nothing makes you feel quite as powerful as a successfully chained command line pipeline.
For example, taking a massive log file and filtering it through cat | grep | awk | sort | uniq -c to find the exact problem in seconds is a form of wizardry that modern UI simply cannot replicate.
Sometimes I believe the pipe | might be the single greatest invention in computing history lol 😋

Help with a #Terminal command?
In my photo library, I have many duplicate files marked with "(1)" due to (ahem) user error.
I would like to copy all of them to another folder so that I can delete them using a wildcard, and I think '*' is the appropriate syntax.
I know how to use 'mv' successfully.
So I've written:
mv *(1).jpg /home/orion/Pictures/PhotoLibrary/copies
But I'm getting "No such file or directory."
What am I doing wrong?
#Linux question: What's a good way to mirror a single #terminal session across two windows? Or show the same terminal on both the internal and external screen?
I use this when teaching. So far I start a tmux session and join with two terminals, one on the big external screen and one on my laptop screen. But the terminal sizes don't automatically match, the "remote" one gets a shaded-out cursor, and it's too easy for me to accidentally break during the session.
Any better ideas out there?

No one tells you just how much work goes into a small YouTube channel. For me, Terminal Tilt is a labor of love, but it is a massive undertaking:
Research and Writing: This is the largest portion. Not just diving into topics, but finding ones truly worth your time.
Filming and Privacy: I have chosen a "headless" approach (screen-only). It respects my privacy and helps me manage the workload, but it still requires a lot of setup.
Voiceovers: This is the hardest part for me. Managing social anxiety while recording is a constant hurdle, but it is one I am getting better at with every video.
Editing: I am currently spending 8–12 hours per video (since last video). As I learn more techniques, the complexity grows, but so does the quality.
The small Stuff: Learning GIMP for thumbnails and managing promotion. Those little things really do add up.
I am disabled and currently navigating the long road to SSDI approval. My goal is to grow Terminal Tilt into something sustainable, a way to support myself while advocating for ethical, #NoAI, and #deGoogled technology. I am taking this seriously and I am having a lot of fun building this.
If you value independent, human-made tech content, there are a few ways to help keep the terminal open:

Mint-maniacs, réjouissez-vous ! 🌿🥳
Vos terminaux vont prendre un coup de frais ! J'ai concocté un style Fastfetch 100% Linux Mint : des bannières vertes emblématiques, un max d'infos et toujours ce look qui claque.
Fini les Fastfetch passe-partout, place au vôtre ! 😉

Using Password Store (pass) as an encrypted address source for mutt.
Instead of a separate address book or plaintext aliases, mutt sources
aliases directly from pass at runtime. Data stays encrypted at rest and
exists only in memory.
Simple, auditable, and very Unix.
Marre des terminaux trop encombrés ? 🔲
J'ai ajouté un petit nouveau à ma collection Fastfetch : le style "The Thin Line". C'est ultra-finaud, ça prend zéro place et c'est parfait pour ceux qui aiment bosser avec des terminaux splittés sans perdre un pixel de visibilité 🌑

Eine Frage an die „Linux-Super-User“:
Wie macht ihr das mit all den Terminal-Befehlen, die ihr immer wieder mal braucht? Schreibt ihr euch die Finger wund oder habt ihr eine Art „Befehls-Datenbank/-Ablage“ für alles was mehr zu schreiben gibt?
Oder seid ihr die ganze Zeit am copy-pasten?
Danke für eure Antworten.

Quick update to my WezTerm config:
• Now draws an unmissable deep-pink border around the active window if the active session is a remote one via SSH so you can easily tell when you’re on your own machine and when you’re not.

Sorry folks, hearing that this one is vibe coded (just checked myself and Claude’s all over the commits)… @rmi suggested Micro instead:
https://micro-editor.github.io/
Going to check that one out when I get a moment to see if it’s good to recommend for beginners.
My daily driver is Helix, and I love it :)
@nuintari Oh, 100% agreed — I'm also using xterm for some administrative tasks, like manipulations with jails or bhyve VMs, or simply updating the system. It just works and eats only 20 MB of RAM and 0.03 % of CPU, lol.
BTW, during my presentation about X11, I received some commentary about xterm is the "slow terminal". How do "all cool kids in the school" measures speed of the terminal now?
I tried to type dmesg and all output scrolled to the end almost instantly🤷

Just shared my WezTerm¹ configuration. It’s not very long and mostly just adds a few keyboard shortcuts that I find more ergonomically-pleasing, specifies light/dark themes and improves colour scheme consistency and also, if you use Helix Editor², automatically implements light/dark mode theme changes for it in line with the rest of the terminal.
