I appreciate your mentioning the downside. I am way too much of a tinkerer for a read-only root to be acceptable for me, but I’m glad you found something you like.

What the heck? This bends my brain.
This is not that big of a deal most of the time, since you are the only person interacting with your computer, but it’s worth remembering when you decide to recycle or donate – you have to securely wipe in that case. Also bear in mind, if you do encrypt your drive, there are now more possibilities for total data loss.
Oh, fun fact: you can change a users windows password inside Linux. Comes in handy for recovery, ie, user forgot their password.

Ubuntu – the one with the Nelson Mandela video and the picture of people holding hands in a circle.
Firefox doesn’t suck imho
Still using Firefox. They mean well. Wish I could say the same of chrome.

kittenroar@beehaw.orgto Linux@lemmy.ml•Very simple foreach line alias to xargs - is it usefule?English0·4 months agoHere’s the code:
#!/bin/bash cmd=$@ if echo $cmd | grep '/$' then xargs -rd '\n' -I {} $cmd{} else xargs -rd '\n' -I {} $cmd {} fi
Usage is like:
ls *zip | iter shasum
or
ls *zip | iter shasum ../zipfile_archive/
The second one would get the shasum of zip files that have the same name as ones in the cwd
This assumes, of course, that the input files have sane names, ie, no spaces, etc
kittenroar@beehaw.orgto Linux@lemmy.ml•Very simple foreach line alias to xargs - is it usefule?English0·4 months agoGreat minds, lol. I have almost the exact same command set up as a little script. Mine has an extra modification for my use case, and I named mine iter, but foreach is a good name for it too.

Yeah; it’s pretty great. It lacks the excel functions, but if you know some python that is a total non-issue.
