LXC/LXD, easy-as-fuck and efficient container system for Linux only
htop, nice and clear version of top
for i in *.mp4 ; do ffmpeg -i "$i" -vsync 2 -c:v libx265 -c:a libopus "${i%.mp4}.mkv"; done >convert a folder from mp4 or any format of your choice to superior x265 and opus
lbzip2, a parallel version of bzip2, so works much better on multicore machines (i.e. any machine newer than 2006)
for rep in {"ppa:webupd8team/java","ppa:exult-team/exult-daily","ppa:neovim-ppa/unstable","ppa:mc3man/mpv-tests"}; do sudo add-apt-repository $rep; done
add a bunch of PPAs to the software sources in one go
who doesnt know about htop >superior x265 lol >bzip2 >PPAs
where the fuck did you copy this list from, redditard
get off my board
Bentley Reyes
Wow you total cunt. I was trying to share some interesting things I've learnt about Linux over the ages, why don't you fuck off back to /cm/, you fucking trap-loving shitstain.

thanks for the ffmpeg oneliner i guess

>90% of Sup Forums doesn't know about htop
I doubt that.

Kill yourself shitty apps guy

The fuck is wrong with you cunts, I try and make a useful fucking thread and I get little micropajeets coming in with this bs.
I hope Pakistan drops nukes on all your fucking major cities you utter piece of shit.

I see you are new to GNU/Linux on Sup Forums, sorry. I thought you were the cunt that made the shitty infographic you posted. He used to shitpost here a lot and got BTFO basically every day.
Grayson Walker
I'm not him, though I'm hardly new to Linux. I don't know why the fuck you shitrags criticize without actually doing better. If you want to bait useful threads without an actual purpose except to be a cunt, go do it on Sup Forums or Sup Forums or better yet, fucking kill yourself.
Liam Thomas
Your pic was taken apart so often won't bother again. It is enough to mention the date it was made and to see the last changes in the install manual.
Liam Russell
The pic was just to set the tone more than become the focal point of the thread you severely-autistic dumbfuck. Now back to the actual discussion and no more autists.

Also, nicked this one from a alias thread translate () { if [ -f $1 ] ; then case $1 in *.tar.bz2) tar xvjf $1 && cd $(basename "$1" .tar.bz2) ;; *.tar.gz) tar xvzf $1 && cd $(basename "$1" .tar.gz) ;; *.tar.xz) tar Jxvf $1 && cd $(basename "$1" .tar.xz) ;; *.bz2) bunzip2 $1 && cd $(basename "$1" /bz2) ;; *.rar) unrar x $1 && cd $(basename "$1" .rar) ;; *.gz) gunzip $1 && cd $(basename "$1" .gz) ;; *.tar) tar xvf $1 && cd $(basename "$1" .tar) ;; *.tbz2) tar xvjf $1 && cd $(basename "$1" .tbz2) ;; *.tgz) tar xvzf $1 && cd $(basename "$1" .tgz) ;; *.zip) unzip $1 && cd $(basename "$1" .zip) ;; *.Z) uncompress $1 && cd $(basename "$1" .Z) ;; *.7z) 7z x $1 && cd $(basename "$1" .7z) ;; *) echo "don't know how to translate '$1'..." ;; esac else echo "Cannot translate '$1'" fi }

If no one uses them and reports back, they won't ever get good. As they are, they're not atrocious, just a little bit rough around the edges. They do tend to do a good job for most videos and they do actually result in smaller filesizes for downloads of TV series etc.

I accidentally discovered this today
when using bash you can press ctrl+r which will open an auto-completing reverse history search, probably one of the most handiest things I've learned about linux in years
Henry Howard
Only your first point is specifically Linux. And of course illumos/OpenIndiana does containers better with Solaris Zones.
Isaac Cruz
look pretty usefull =)
Xavier Bell
or alternatively alias translate='7z x' 7z does all compression formats why has noone moved in yet
Jaxon Mitchell
dtrx automatically extract archives correctly, even with right permissions and everything.
get youtube-dl and you can use mpv to watch youtube videos.
in urxvt, use ctrl-alt-{c,v} for copy and paste
on a laptop, cd to /sys/class/backlight/(your device)/ writing a value to the brightness file (echo 100 > brightness) will actually change your screen brightness
