And that is another thing I enjoy to watch. As it is doing operations one file at a time during an install it actually explains with notes what each is and what is happening. You can learn a lot about Linux by reading these install operation notes it shares file by file.
Was it you who told me here one time to “never discount the power of the terminal utility”? If so thank you. You were absolutely right. There is still quite a bit of needed stuff out there that requires a command line install. And they only give Command line instructions for them. And it works slicker than snot. :)
Nope but I do use it for some things, like adding a repository to install a program that's not in Ubuntu's repositories.
I also use a command line program, youtube-dl, dl stands for download. (youtube-dl --list-formats 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8L_x42RieA') Use that minus parentheses to list formats and file size of the video. That will give you a list and one thing on each line is a numeric code. Then to download, (youtube-dl -f 18 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU0a-l-amlI) That number 18 seems to always be about the best. Audio & video and not a humongous file size. It will work with 100+ other sites as well, including bitchute.
imagemagik is another command line only program used for manipulating images and will do batch processing. If you have 300 images in a folder that you want to resize and optimize(smaller file size), you can do it with one command. You can also convert from one file format to another. Seems very strange working with images and not using a GUI but the program works great. Comes preinstalled on most Linux distros and also pretty much all web servers. When you upload some huge pic to a website, most of the time they're using imagemagik to shrink the file so their web server doesn't fill up real quick and so that pages don't take forever to load because your pic was 2048px wide and 12mb in size.
The only commands I know off the top of my head are the basic sudo commands. Most of the time, I'm copying and pasting something from the web into the terminal. Yup, most common is add a repository, update, install.
