Does that mean your computer telling you "this incident will be reported" after a denied attempt at sudo is it threatening to tell its mom?
The terminal is so cool because it's like you're chatting with your computer

On my modern Linux systems I main Fedora, so Ptyxis but, depending on the system, I may use Konsole, Xfce4 Terminal, or MATE Terminal. It just really depends on what the default is for the desktop I'm using at the time.

Decided to install Red Hat Linux 6.2 on my SPARCstation 5 tonight - and of course I network booted it. The bootloader and initial boot image was hosted on a TFTP server, with the installer and packages hosted over NFS.





Installation went off without a hitch and I'm put into a fresh KDE 1 environment.



Now, of course I have to do my signature anime girl-ification of the system.



Red Hat 6.2 (SPARCstation 5, 1994) and Red Hat 9 (Athlon 1100, 2002) side-by-side, to show the difference of four years of software and eight years of hardware.

You are trying to read a long file on a remote non-graphical server.
#depends on if i need to edit it or not#by “long” i assume you mean too long to fit in a single console window#either vi or less would be my choice

types /home/export instead of /export/home for the nth time
i may be several time more computer-literate than the average person, but that does not stop me from being terrible at using computers
