  • You know every modern browser has bookmarks, and I think all of them have a bookmark toolbar, and the ability to organize bookmarks into folders…

    I’m fully aware, however, I am not about to start bookmarking job’s labelled as #20000 -> 50000 and all their PDF’s, documents an such. Some jobs last 2+ years, like bridge projects, whereas other last a couple weeks to a month, easier to just leave tabs open for what I am focusing on within that current month.

    Edit: If I really wanted to do that I could just self-host a bookmarking service that way bookmarks stay centralized, but then I’m taking work home, so screw that.











  • Yeah, once you get the basics of BASH down Linux becomes really easy.

    Open up your Console/Shell/Terminal and type “help” it will give you the list of standard commands that let you navigate the shell.

    • cd = change directory
    • mkdir = make directory
    • nano = edit file
    • rm = remove file
    • rmdir = remove directory
    • sudo = run command as administrator/root privileges

    And once you get that going you’ll eventually get the options for each command, for example rm -rf is remove a file forcefully (the -f option), if you apply that command to directories it will remove anything within those directories with recursion (the -r option).

    You also don’t need to cd into a directory if you want to edit a file in it. For example nano /home/user/Desktop/SomeRandomFile.conf
