why use the terminal? you only need to expose the guts when you need some less commonly accessed or advanced feature. a special or unusual use case. why are you faggots trying to take us back to the stone age and have us in the terminal all the time? and why is it trending with developers nowdays to just dump all their spaghetti on github and include a long winded read me for their software now? they dont bother to tweak defaults anymore. they bother to make a GUI. just dump it on github "here you deal with it"

wtf? github is making the world a worse place?

Because white people prefer talking rather than pointing.

if that is true, why is it that this is becoming more prevalent as white culture has been taken over? when white culture was more prominent, the GUI was more prevalent

How about quick sorting files? GUI applications are practically a pain for common user tasks.


shopt -s extglob
mkdir ~/temp/unsorted_pics ~/temp/recent_doc
mv ~/Downloads/+(*.jpg|*.png|*.gif) ~/temp/unsorted_pics
mv ~/Downloads/+(*.pdf|*.docx|*.xlsx) ~/temp/recent_doc
mkdir ~/temp/unsorted_pics/convert; mv ~/Downloads/*.webp ~/temp/unsorted_pics/convert


Frontend devs are retarded, bloating up the code, multithreading, GPU accelerated. But nothing that improves the use cases of their apps.

My github projects always have a gui and I try to make it as user friendly as possible. I also try to have nice packages that any retard can just download and run without having to build anything or hunt down dependencies. Command line tools are for me alone.

Sure, if you have a task you want to repeat. But for one off operations, the GUI can often be superior to spending ages carefully crafting a script. Also you can make quite a mess of things if you screw up your script. Also, the GUI can often given you confirmation of correctness before performing the action. Consider software like bulk-rename. That tool shows you what it will rename the files to, and this updates as you change the options.
