It's the power glove that really gets me. It's so bad.
I put an optical drive in my PC recently, and I've been giggling like an idiot typing "eject" and "eject -t" into the terminal. Terminal commands that do something physical in the world delight me.
I don't use the termulator for opening apps that can bepened through GUI simply because the termulator has to stay open and that clutters the taskbar.
bro doesn't know about &
shutdown -h now
More like, the app complains about not being able to find the window manager due to some environment variables missing in the shell env, and refuses to launch.
Do you even export DISPLAY, bro?!??
dos
Is that a Nintendo power glove?

These kids and their hoodies. Everybody knows that hackers look like this.
There must be a "the virgin Mr Robot hacker vs the chad Kung Fury hackerman" comparison out there somewhere
Not all of them...some wear white hats? π
Was the video made in Australia or New Zealand by any chance? There are two Microbees (Z80-based computers from New Zealand, virtually unheard of in the northern hemisphere) in the photo,
Made by Swedes, but I don't know where.

FYI on a Mac you just type βopenβ and give it the file name. Works with any file.
Not sure how this works on Linux because I only use it via the cli
Man, if this guy has access to a Mac, Spotlight's gonna blow his mind.
Alfred beats the pants off Spotlight as a launcher. Because of the custom actions, in particular.
