rdm<p>In less than 18 hours, including a solid 12 hours (at least) of downtime, I have gone from concept to 90% functional prototype of a creative rPi project, thanks to aus.social allowing quick and easy downloads, jq, an obscure CUPS driver project, and an intimate knowledge of scripting.</p><p>Feeling very accomplished.</p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/BashScript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BashScript</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/raspberrypi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>raspberrypi</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/hacking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hacking</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/json" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>json</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/scripting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>scripting</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a></p>
Micah Ilbery :sloth_coffee:<p>I think I just ran into a great example of how different tasks can require different energy levels that don't necessarily match their "difficulty".<br><br>I recently got a "new to me" laptop and at first set it up with Fedora Workstation but quickly realized I much prefer Fedora Silverblue (not the point of this post, so I won't get into why here) and needed to re setup everything. I didn't want to click through a ton of apps in GNOME Software and install them all individually then organize them in the overview.<br><br>So instead of doing all that manually I wrote a bash script from scratch to:<br><br>- remove any rpm packages I didn't want<br>- remove any flatpaks I didn't want<br>- reinstall fedora flatpaks from flathub<br>- remove the fedora flatpaks repo<br>- layer the few rpm packages I wanted<br>- install all the flatpak apps I wanted.<br>- create custom folders in the overview<br>- sort all the apps in those custom folders<br>- pin my most used apps to the dock<br><br>This felt like it required way less energy for me. Not because it was easier or faster. In fact I'm really rusty at bash scripting and I didn't even know how to organize the overview from the terminal, so I even had to learn something new and it probably took me way longer. But writing a little script was more fun for me and therefore didn't feel draining or overwhelming like the tedious task of clicking around for a couple hours would have.<br><br><a href="https://slothsneed.coffee/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://slothsneed.coffee/tags/fedora" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fedora</span></a> <a href="https://slothsneed.coffee/tags/silverblue" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Silverblue</span></a> <a href="https://slothsneed.coffee/tags/bashscript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BashScript</span></a> <a href="https://slothsneed.coffee/tags/adhd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ADHD</span></a></p>
JesseBot<p>It is once again time to give thanks to Brian Fox, the Black American programmer that has given us BASH and <code>echo</code>! Thank you for your INCREDIBLE contributions to open source software, Unix, and Linux. It literally would not be the same without you. BASH is still absolutely foundational to all computing today.

Fossery Tech :debian: :gnome:<p>I just don't like to search for how to write a shebang each time lol<br>And it's also more convenient to just write a function inside .bashrc vs. writing a bash script and aliasing it in .bashrc (so I can run "something" instead of "bash something.sh")<br>But that's just my preference of course. For scheduling it might not be practical, but I don't do that stuff.<br>(Fun fact: I'm actually a GUI guy, only use CLI for some dev stuff lol)</p><p><a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Bash" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bash</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/CLI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CLI</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/BashScript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BashScript</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Bashrc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bashrc</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/FosseryTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FosseryTech</span></a></p>
