  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.

    If you're out of the loop: this is part of the joke tricking people into dedicating precious hard drive space to an unnecessary language pack.

    side note: My all-time favorite linux utility is "fuck". When you make a mistake and get a command line error, you type the word fuck and it looks at what you previously typed and the error message, and tries to figure out your mistake and what you should have typed instead. Then it types that in for you. If it's correct all you have to do is hit Enter. Or you can edit first, but it's usually right. Amazing tool, and doesn't even use AI, just a list of common errors. It's been around for years and years. Its mere existence really captures the whole culture of linux IMO.

    [–] Rooty@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

    Its name is dangerously close to fsck. Can you fuck fsck?

    [–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

    That's the beauty of it - you can!

    [–] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

    See, I couldn't bring myself to type that; I think I'd have to alias it to 'bother'.

    [–] blackstrat@lemmy.fwgx.uk 3 points 10 months ago (2 children)

    I aint typing out 'please', I will compromise on alias plz='sudo'

    [–] abobla@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

    What it feels like using windows.

    "Please shutdown?"

    "No, forced update time."

    "Please uninstall this browser and use this other instead?"

    "No."

    [–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 10 months ago

    It’s a longer command. I wanna get shit done. I’m aliasing commands to make them shorter, not longer. But it does seem like it’d be a little friendlier.

    sudo make me a sandwich

    [–] hasecilu@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

    I prefer to use kudasai ... but as some may already know, it should be at the end of the ~~sentence~~ command πŸ˜…, so I added a custom hook to my ZSH config to make it run commands as pacman -Syu kudasai.

    Essentially you can add any type of string matching in the function. Add this to the end of your .zshrc file:

    function kudasai_preexec() {
        # Check if the last word is ' kudasai'
        if [[ $1 == *" kudasai" ]]; then
            # Remove ' kudasai' and prepend 'sudo'
            cmd=${1%" kudasai"}
            eval "sudo $cmd"
            # Prevent the original command from running
            return 1
        fi
    }
    
    # Register the preexec hook
    autoload -Uz add-zsh-hook
    add-zsh-hook preexec kudasai_preexec
    

    Edit: as downside you always get 1 exit code with this implementation ~(little_annoying)~ .

    It's impractical and I often forget that I have it. But the times I remember I laugh a bit
