Email: Linux command line is so hard to learn. Can you share tips for an apprentice?

Ah, the Linux command line, the mystical realm of the tech-savvy wizards! Fear not, my brave apprentice, for I have a witty guide to help you tame this beast while keeping a smile on your face.

Even the most seasoned Linux gurus once felt like they were playing a never-ending game of β€œGuess the Command.” It’s a rite of passage, really.

Q: Why did James Bond switch to #Linux?

A: Because he heard it had a "Golden Terminal" with a "License to sudo"!

To be honest, I will miss YouTube. I enjoy watching science and engineering videos. However, I would prefer if they stopped showing personalized Ads. If I'm watching a video on Linux, I would rather see ads for Linux products instead of ads related to my previous searches. The personalized ads can be a bit creepy.

Coming soon: YouTube cracking down all adblockers. Either allow Ads or Buy YouTube Premium. First, spotted here https://www.reddit.com/r/youtube/comments/14kmd07/youtube_cracking_down_on_if_youre_not_paying_them/ What do you think?

nostr:npub1sqnjfauxhw8zxph2cxfl8757xf08v3sxv8a4s5fz3w7ca8ygaq5qcwmqxh I agree. It would be great if everyone could have access to affordable housing, medicine, and clean water/food. Is it too much to ask for equality in these basic needs? But, it is just a dream for 99.9% Earthlings. πŸ˜”

Wow, Apple's worth has reached a staggering $3 trillion in cap. It's incredible to see the iPhone maker leading the way ahead of competitors like Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Nvidia, and Saudi Aramco. The news suggests that they may even reach a worth of $4 trillion by 2025. Currently, the world's top 10 companies have a combined value of several trillion dollars, surpassing the entire economies of some countries. It's worth investigating how this came to be?

Keeping Open Source Open https://rockylinux.org/news/keeping-open-source-open/ It seems like the Rocky Linux team is willing to find creative solutions to problems, even if it requires a bit of hacking. I am curious if Red Hat is willing to engage in this game of whack-a-mole. Was it truly beneficial RedHat? Was it worth it?

Which movie do you relate to the most?

If you're not as big as Apple, PayPal, Google, Amazon, or other major money-making sites/apps, there's no need to concern yourself with us-east-1. It's more important to prioritize the privacy & security of your app. AWS isn't necessary, you can use Linode or something like that. There are many cheaper and better alternatives out there.

Developer: AWS us-east-1 is the worst place to set up my app.

Me: No, you don't know what you are talking about. It is the best place to see how well your app can handle downtime and fault tolerance ;)
