i grabbed gnu screen. works well enough and its gpl3

I feel like you are the closest to getting what I meant. I had fallen out of the habit working in windows but the linux terminal is so useful im going to start making a point of having it available to do some things a bit faster.

ironically I used the gui to split the terminal today.

ok. I have written scripts but when there is a reason. I doubt I will for my day to day. User account creation. Completely makes sense. I don’t need it to move around files or rename them. sorry I have been getting so many replies like I have never used the command line till today when I thought my post made it clear I just have not really used them with my personal machine unless I had a specific reason to.

I doubt im going to add anything to my bashrc but again I did not think I would go to the command line as a preference like I did so maybe it will happen. Even back in the day I actually just had a blurb print out when I used windows syntax back when I was learing linux syntax. I may just actually throw some aliases in if I start using complex enough commands but for now its just a few simple things.

I doubt im going to start using vim again but it could happen. never really got into emacs but have sorta went back and forth with vim and nano at the command line. Its a bit of a pain remembering things but ill admit when you do you can do things quickly. I sorta felt the same about command line. Previous to this I was only dropping down when I had to but this was the first in awhile were I used it preferentially over the gui alternative so who knows.

yeah and gui sometimes is the easier route like when moving over large parts of the file structure and your not repeating the action. I was just making a few folders and cleaning out a folder with to many disparate things when I realized its just much easier to make directories and move files over one or two folders especially when the names are similar.

Oh its not for everyone but I would not be surprised if there is more tech people like myself. Older and started before gui and loved the next step and was wild about osx. Used linux a fair amount at work. Im a pretty tech person but at some point utility and ease sorta won out in addition to using defaults (I used to customize everything but when you have to support users who mostly use default its good to be used to default). I just have not been in the habit and I forgot how nice it is in some scenarios.

I use zorin and the nvidia drivers been fine.

zorin is likely the easiest out of box distro you can get but its not a gaming distro. if gaming is that important I would consider either just using a gaming distro or dual booting one.

Its just a pain. You have to know what flags and such you need to use and might have to install specific libraries and such. Granted. Its been a long time since I have done that.

Oh I completely disagree. If humans had a simple offswitch the world population would crater. Basically if wanting to be dead made people dead we would have a massive amount of dead people fast.

Not even sure if financial security is even the right term. If you can barely keep food and roof over your head (and healthcare is already not an option) then having children means losing one or the other for yourself and the kids. I mean its not like the ones who want people to have more babies are going to make sure snap benefits are always available much less healthcare.

This. Its more about shelter for me but yeah can barely keep things together as it is. Then factor in how it looks to be getting worse and worse for each generation and any kids born now are just on the crux of whatever they are going to call the next one.

came to say it depends on how far away.

I sorta wish other work was like this. This is one of the reasons linkedin is hard to not be on as it gives a confirmation of where you worked from your connections and if you give and get recommendations that verifies it that much more.

I did and I did not see anything in the article that would take your api and give you an equivalent statement in a variety of languages which I think is why it was nice using the programs but i has been over a year since I did it. It was a fairly high amount of convenience.

ok yeah I think the other one I used was like a fork of insomnia.

curl is not great when testing configuration for various software solutions. there are a few better options than postman like httpie and another one but I forget its name.

well I mean sure but the answer works for his use case and I did not see anything better listed when I read through yesterday. I mean yeah better would be better.
