You use terminal because you know what you are doing.

I use terminal because I want to feel like a hacker in a 90's movie.

We are not the same.

You use the terminal because you like the UX experience.

I use the terminal because the best IDE I can install on my work server is vim7.4.*

We are not the same.

*VHDL and SV. I can't install python for TerosHDL

I use the terminal only to install something I need

Terminal is even more impressive if used in full screen

[–] Seraph089@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

If you want impressive, you have 4-6 seperate terminal windows that take up the whole screen collectively. The laymen assume you're hacking the NSA or something if they see that.

People know what dropdown menus are called :O

[–] EricAux@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, my mom would say "Where's all the stuff" to refer to buttons, drop-down menus, etc.

I've lost count of the amount of times my terminal has been referenced as being the matrix. Hasn't happened much since WFH though.

Yes, I use PowerShell with garish colors. Yes, I have to Google every step. No,I don't understand the Microsoft docs.

[–] xthexder@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

To be fair, I used to work there, and not even Microsoft understands their docs.

It ain't hacking unless I've got a ski mask on.

[–] CaptainAlchemy@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Me when I run sudo pacman -Syu

WHOA! SLOW DOWN with throwing out the mystical text! You wanna summon a demon right here?
