[@abubakrakram6208]

4:16 I don’t know what that was, but I didn’t realize how much I needed it in my life.

The tr utility is not good for making text uppercase because it works only on the English alphabet. It does not translate letters like äčéšđǫž. To do a proper lowercase to uppercase, use sed 's/./\U&/g'. To convert uppercase to lowercase, it's 's/./\L&/g'. The entire UTF-8 range is supported. Another great option in sed is the y command, which does the similar thing as tr. For example, sed 'y/ckpt/ggbd/' will Spurdify text.

[@jonasrivers3675]

>using utf lol no one cares, god's chosen text encoding is ascii

[@RusselGosu]

besd sed ever

[@notuxnobux]

There is no such thing as uppercase unicode. Some languages do uppercase characters different than others even if you use the exact same lowercase character (also applies to lowercase). The correct way to do it is to set LANG locale before calling the program if you want correct behavior

[@technologicalwaste7612]

The best part of these videos is when you use a less than optimal solution and one of the commenters gives a correction. I have learnt a number of obscure and useful new things this way.

[@Forrest-T]

I realize it's not the point, but you can achieve everything you did with "cat jdthesis.txt | grep Jesus | less" using just less itself. The '&' key in less does a filter-search to only display lines that match whatever pattern you type, in this case "Jesus".

I was about to comment on that. I remember in a different video he said not to do that and just grep the file without the need for cat.

[@derick1259]

He explains later in the vid about that.

[@anonymous4711_]

@Գասպար Վարդանյան it's also fine in scripts, since those grow from commands you probably tried in the terminal first. You would have to rework them to comply with a meme from KZbin...

>All system configuration is stored in text files Try telling that to the gnome project and dconf, which is pretty much just a copy of how Windows does the registry. They used to use gconf which was similar, but was stored in an xml file back in Gnome 2 (and xfce still does it with xconf), but dconf is just a single binary file.

[@AtomToast]

A useful trick to some people might be to use `setopt noclobber` in your zshrc. This will prevent zsh from automatically overwriting files with > in interactive sessions

Alright I got a question for you : Why d'you change your group from 'luke' to 'wheel' ? Or if you didn't, why making your home dir owned by 'luke:wheel' instead of 'luke:luke' ? I mean I know you're part of the 'wheel' group to run 'sudo' and stuff like that, but why changing your home's permissions ?

From a practical perspective, how often do you do updatedb? I made a script utilizing find to list all my ebook and feed it into dmenu, but it's painfully slow in my intel Celeron machine.
