Why would you ~~pipe~~ edit: redirect neofetch into your .bashrc?

[-] MonkderZweite@feddit.ch 12 points 1 year ago

That's a redirection, not a pipe.

[-] radix@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Good catch.

[-] MigratingtoLemmy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Exactly, that's bloat

[-] lco@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

so that everytime you launch a terminal, your neofetch data is displayed. Because wow, neofetch!!!

It doesn't really make sense, since the data would be outdated anyway if piped into .bashrc that way...

I use macOS btw

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 3 points 1 year ago

Also looking at my dotfiles repo...

[-] dditty@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

This post is what is giving me the idea to finally set up a dotfiles repo for the first time.

[-] CaptainBasculin@lemmy.ml 23 points 1 year ago

i had i3 run with no problems on some of the worst machines I had to use. I'll fight with anyone that claims i3 is bloat.

Too smart for NixOS - LMAO! I bet this guy has a conky on his Blackbox.

[-] Rodeo@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

Good old conky lol. Its like it was made to be a config playground, and the actual functionality was an afterthought.

[-] mattomattic@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

Afterthought is an understatement. I didn't mind piping some of that info into an i3 status bar, but just a couple things. Who needs to watch all that distracting system stuff all the time. Using autocompletions on the command line would get that info quick enough. And whoever down voted my original comment - I'm laughing about it. Serious business right?

Neofetch and NixOS are bloat.

Arch's X setup sucks, sx is better.

[-] Declamatie@mander.xyz 14 points 1 year ago

Also, 2 GB of dotfiles is bloat

[-] MonkderZweite@feddit.ch 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Must be pretty bad spaghetti code.

[-] QuazarOmega@lemy.lol 6 points 1 year ago

But I can't have sx if I use Linux ;(

[-] MonkderZweite@feddit.ch 4 points 1 year ago

I do use sx in Arch, though?

[-] QuazarOmega@lemy.lol 14 points 1 year ago

It was just an attempt at a dumb stereotypical joke that Linux users don't have sex

[-] SSUPII@sopuli.xyz 13 points 1 year ago

Almost and not always average Gentoo user

  • Has over 100 obscure USE flags he forgot what they do
  • Needs two days to configure his kernel and two more to compile it.
  • Uses ancient thinkpad
  • Uses lynx because firefox won't compile
  • Uses rusty old software because of "tradition"
  • Uptime ~30 years
[-] histic@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago

you forgot the cooling pad it's on since the fans died like a decade ago

[-] MigratingtoLemmy@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I write in POSIX shell as a matter of principle.

My "dotfiles" repo is a few Kb in size.

I am too dumb and lazy to try Nix.

I do like using vim keybindings in my terminal.

Neofetch is bloat, I wrote a script that shows some essential information when the machine starts and that's it.

Akchually, binary prefixes are the one and only correct prefixes for counting digital size of information (GiB instead of GB).

[-] darcy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

acckshually, i dont use 'Giga' or 'Mega', i just use bits, in scientific notation: 2.0*10^9

[-] Neon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That wouldn't be 2 GB, that would be 2 Gb

GiB would be 2.010^98 bits

uhhh uhhh what's more bloated than windows 10 uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i honestly don't know

[-] darcy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

nooo that has smaller icon's mabye windows 8 start screen

[-] netchami@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

If you do neofetch > .bashrc you will simply have a broken shell config. To add neofetch to the bashrc you need to use echo.

[-] darcy@sh.itjust.works 0 points 11 months ago

it is actually a 200 IQ meme. your average coomfiger doesnt know that much about shell scripting, but thinks they do.

or something. i definitely didnt get it wrong myself
