Who did you go to?

Extract a tarball with verbose output from the specified file.

And learn how to use the ‘z’ option

What if you use both?

What do you mean? Ive upgraded every release since Fedora Core 1.

I just run Fedora in a VM and do 99% of my work there.

For some reason, COBOL has had OOP features since 2002.

sysyemctl disable --now sawtrapd to do both in one command.

Have you bought a single monitor in the past 5 years or so? Mine all have hdmi and DP.

That’s when locate piped to grep is your best friend.

Ls doesn’t tell them where they are, just what files exist in their current location.

You forgot the pwd after each ‘cd’.

Like I said, olden days.

C# is a great language but I’ll always choose Java because the ecosystem around it is so vast. Often times some client library you need has a c# port maintained by one guy and he hasn’t updated in years.

I think they had to reinstall. It was part of a Hadoop cluster and that was extra finicky.

I believe sudoedit disables being able to spawn commands from the editor. In vi, I think it was :!<command>

I’ll create directories via sudo in /var/log, /var/lib etc and then chown to the user that the systemd service will be running as.

Back in the olden days we used to nfs mount every other machines file system on every machine. I was root and ran “rm -rf /" instead of "./”.

After I realized that it was taking too long, i realized my error.

Now for the fun part. In those days nfs passed root privileges to the remote file system. I took out 2.5 machines before I killed it.

Had an idiot “fix” a permission problem by running “sudo chmod -R 777 /”

And that is why sudo privileges were removed for the vast majority of people.

There are 52 weeks in a year not 48. 500 x 52 = 26000.

I used to use an app called moneydance several years ago. It was pretty much the only thing that ran on Linux but it was decent.
