I find incrond works way better.

Although he won't win any awards for his vocal skills, this was the song that drove me in my early years in college as I learned what a hacker really was and learnt more about GNU at a time when everyone miss-pronounced it as Linux.

Well yes I thought you were using emulators. When I was a kid I would frequently break X11 so I spent much of my time on the console framebuffer. All I needed it to to is let me watch TV and videos till I was bothered to fix the config file for X

None.

Why? Erm, living by myself I don't need to lock myself out ;)

Look up chroot

Mplayer can render to the terminal using aalib

Yes I have used that in the past but it's way to finniky in operation as it sometimes registers a left or right click instead.

GNU Parallel

Unlock the power of multiple cores in your command lines!

Put your aliases in .bash_aliases

Make sure your .bashrc sources .bash_aliases like this:

if [ -f ~/.bash_aliases ]; then . ~/.bash_aliases fi

I've tried hard to get libreoffice and dvddisaster to render in a terminal but for some reason it never works... 😏

Middle click in chrome...

If you want to use ctrl-v you need to the newer method of ctrl-shift-c first. It uses shift for the same reason windows does in a command prompt, ctrl-c is a reserved combination.

Not a Linux issue. Two different paradigms one older than the other, chose which is best to use.

On my laptop's I use ctrl-shift-c and ctrl-shift-v due to not having a middle click. With a mouse I middle click instinctively.

Systemd is tolerable but it still messes up my day. I'm moving away from it soon.

The idea was sound, the implementation not so much.
