The Terminal Life
-
last updated: 2021-12-28

-
-
"Terminal" as in the box you can open on Linux and type funny commands in and, usually, they do the thing, not "terminal" like "a voice in my head tells me I'll probably die shortly after graduating college". There's a terminal on Windows too, but it's only useful for running ping. If anyone tells you to run any iteration of sudo rm -rf /*, don't.
-
-
nmtui: Wi-Fi manager for those of us who haven't been forcibly upgraded to Connman. Arrow keys navigate. Connecting to a new network is as simple as going to "Activate a connection", pressing enter on the network wanted, and then typing in the password... provided that your network is a simple WPA/WPA2 one like a residential home router, and isn't doing some fucky credentials/certificate thing like a corporate network.
-
pandoc: (almost) universal document converter. I write my posts in Markdown and then use Pandoc to convert them to HTML... albeit a huge chunk of HTML with no line breaks between the paragraphs. It will insist on using non-ASCII characters in otherwise-ASCII file formats unless you beat it over the head with the command-line flags --ascii --wrap=none, but even then it'll just use the character code instead.
-
smu: another document converter, but it only goes from a subset of Markdown to HTML. It compiles in under a second on my computer and doesn't require a kajillion Haskell dependencies like pandoc does.
-
elinks: a browser for the terminal... not to be confused with links or lynx. I used to use lynx because of the Gopher support that elinks lacks, but I've never been able to successfully compile lynx with TLS support. elinks, on the other hand, compiles in a snap with no problems. It also has slightly better text formatting and keyboard shortcuts. (The H key pops up the browsing history, for example, and G asks you which URL you want to go to next.) My only complaint is that it won't let me select text to copy to the clipboard with my mouse without an arcane keyboard combination I've already forgotten.
-
cvlc: VLC, but in the terminal! I wrote a tutorial about using it a while ago. You almost certainly want to use the ncurses frontend.
-
byobu: terminal multiplexer, which is a fancy way of saying "please let me run more than one program at a time in a TTY". Basically tmux but better, although it can use GNU screen as a backend too. Comes with a fancy little status bar at the bottom of the screen that displays info about your system, such as system load, disk usage, and battery status (which is a godsend when using a TTY on a laptop). The info it displays can be changed by pressing F1 or running byobu-config.
-
tree: recursively lists all the files in a given folder... and every folder in there... and every folder in those folders... hence the recursive. If you've lost a file but know part of its name, you can run tree -f | grep "SearchTerm" to find it. (If you're searching by content, just use grep -nr "SearchTerm" instead.)
-
weechat: IRC client, although plugins exist to allow it to handle XMPP and Matrix as well. Supposedly relay settings exist so that one can run it on a server or always-on computer and connect to the Weechat session on a phone or some other device with intermittent connectivity, but I only know this because someone keeps trying to hijack my session and I get at least one cannot accept client because relay password is empty, and option relay.network.allow_empty_password is off error message a day.
-
htop: the Linux equivalent of the Windows Task Manager, except this is Linux so everything is automatically better than Microshaft Wangblows. (Migrosert Wendys?) Recent versions have mouse support if you're running an X11 session instead of a TTY and are using a decent terminal. I recommend sorting by MEM instead of CPU.

Announcement Box

2023-03-18: Doing better than I expected. Being forced to deal with a former online friend turned stalker is stressful, but I'm managing. Mostly I'm just disappointed in the male incapability to understand the words "leave me alone". I finally have gainful employment again as long as I can pass a background check next week.
2023-02-14: IPFS and I2P mirrors are temporarily discontinued while I finish migrating to my new server.
-
2023-02-08: Sorry about the NomadNet downtime; someone's DDoSing the I2P network and my Reticulum instance was refusing to connect to my clearnet peers for some reason.

+***
+
+Gebo and Inguz both inverted tell me
+that impoverishment, the poverty
+of my life is still ongoing
+even if I get the job
+that interview was for that I worked so hard on.
+Returning to a paycheck doesn't change
+the emptiness in the days
+or the shit I find all over the floor
+or the listless afternoons
+I mean to do
+something but just lie still in bed, bored.
+
+"Having a job doesn't replace
+the need for improvement, the urge to change
+the things in life you can't tolerate
+any longer, the duty
+only you carry
+to a brand new world create."
+
+But I can't do it without you.
+And ever since you entered
+college, I feel like our bond
+is growing weary, if not severed.
+I rarely see you anymore,
+never feel the weight
+of your world-bearing arms resting on my ribcage.
+
+This is what I feared,
+what I never wanted to replicate
+between us, much less when we entered Sablade.
+Every stereotypical straight
+couple only in name,
+living two separate lives,
+upright
+but may as well have died
+for all you can look into their eyes
+and see freedom's spark, love's light.
+
+I made Sablade so that we'd have a home
+even if neither could work. So, Jett,
+if you promise, I'll do the same:
+don't work yourself all the way to the bone.
+
+"Lethe, this isn't the end of the road.
+You and I've still got a long way to go.
+If you promise, I'll also follow through:
+cherish this time,
+but every day I'll remind
+who you really belong to."
