Because CLI is just life...

I'm too young to be of the generation of hardcore CLI advocates, but I really want this on a T-shirt.

@Navigatr definitely

@RantSomeWhere Born 1993. :P I've been asked if I knew what I floppy disk was by people less than ten years older than I. (I did catch the butt end of that era, briefly using them in school around age 9-10.)

@Navigatr 8 was born 2000 and I know what floppys are. But if I were to ask someone from class, they wouldn't have any idea.

@olback You're a rare one, young padawan. (Also I didn't realize you're Swedish too! :D)

@RantSomeWhere Fucking ancient, you're the same age as my niece...

@RantSomeWhere same but from 1991 ... and I fell old yet.

*cough*1979*cough*

@RantSomeWhere My point is that if you feel ancient being born in 1993, imagine how old I feel. 😝

The CLI is the true happiness. CLI is love, CLI is life.

@ethernetzero That's why I usually don't complain about it much, I don't want to make other people feel even worse. :P All this simultaneously makes me feel both like a baby and a borderline dinosaur, it's a real identity crisis. But my impression is that that's quite normal in your early-to-mid-twenties?

@RantSomeWhere Nah man, it's okay. I admit that just pointing out my birth year without any more context wasn't too clear either.

@Navigatr Personally, feeling like a dinosaur doesn't really bother me. If anything, I'm glad I've seen so many changes in technology along the years.

@ethernetzero No, I know, it's just that that feeling is still brand new to me. :P

@ethernetzero @RantSomeWhere, but the real things about this conversation is not just our love for CLI ? :’D Forget anything about our birthdates and type kill -9 0 in the shell.

@Maartz I don't know enough yet to understand that command, but it sounds like a bad idea to me...

@Navigatr well ... it kills the 0 process so yeah... but it’s not worth than rm -rf / (even if it’s protected right now... I presume).

@Maartz That one means "remove everything in root directory without confirmation" or something like that, right?

@RantSomeWhere

2003 and also in the CLI masterrace.

@RantSomeWhere @Haxk20 for Windows user -> Windows + R, color 2, tree.
HACKERMAN

@Haxk20 excuse me I did just assume your OS.
Obviously it was a joke.
But IDK if I prefer Windows or Arch users...

@Haxk20 I get it ;) it was a joke too 😅👉👈
Maybe I’m not as funny as I thought.

I'm fairly young but test and run all my code on a CLI. Being incapable of designing a good UI, or too lazy to do so is a big motivator to curl up in my shell.

@nanoandrew4 try HTTPie, it’s awesome ! https://httpie.org/
