or be boring and alias sl=ls
So I installed this way back in the day on my prod corporate VMs. I was still green, and any prod issues would shake me so much, it was too stressful.
I taught myself to relax when the locomotive pops up, take a few deep breaths and go on.
It was super effective. I learned to not get so flustered, and stopped messing commands due to adrenaline. I no longer install it anywhere, but it still puts a smile and a wave of nostalgia when I see or hear about it.
Such a small thing, yet it helped me grow so much.
Installing SL is part of my standard cloud-init config.
sl | lolcatNot a mistake but a fun reminder that the terminal can be a very fun place!

I love dev work like this. Computers should be fun again.
I would get slightly amused every time I typed “lust” instead of “list” as a kid in applesoft basic.
…now the question is do we want to implement a command for that
don’t forget to install gti
I love how knowledge shedding makes this a cyclical discovery.
im currently baking this into our hpc. people gotta see the train!
alias l="ls", I’m immune to this problemOr
ll='ls -laFh'to have it just how I like it
this is perfect
This is exactly the type of thing I love.
Does anyone know the “prank” repo that would delete Linux system (or Windows) when an wrong typo ran?
Ah yes. When you need to slow the fuck down.
Lately for me it’s been “ks”
I prefer “the fuck” https://github.com/nvbn/thefuck
Yeah, that’s going to be installed tomorrow.
thefuck is abandoned, you could try https://github.com/iffse/pay-respects instead
I saw it wasn’t maintained, after I posted. Was pretty bummed. Thanks for this!
The fuck is awesome.
I thought this was going to be about “the fuck”
