I like the other three versions but one uses nested loops and another prints every color on a separate line. Both versions fail to reset colors before giving the prompt back.
This version uses the column command to print a table so all the colors fit on one screen. It also resets colors back to normal before as a last step.
Certain Flash video players (e.g. Youtube) write their video streams to disk in /tmp/ , but the files are unlinked. i.e. the player creates the file and then immediately deletes the filename (unlinking files in this way makes it hard to find them, and/or ensures their cleanup if the browser or plugin should crash etc.) But as long as the flash plugin's process runs, a file descriptor remains in its /proc/ hierarchy, from which we (and the player) still have access to the file. The method above worked nicely for me when I had 50 tabs open with Youtube videos and didn't want to have to re-download them all with some tool.
Print out your age in days in binary.
Today's my binary birthday, I'm 2^14 days old :-)
.
This command does bash arithmatic $(( )) on two dates:
Today: $(date +%s)
Date of birth: $(date +%s -d YYYY-MM-DD)
The dates are expressed as the number of seconds since the Unix epoch (Jan 1970),
so we devide the difference by 86400 (seconds per day).
.
Finally we pipe "obase=2; DAYS-OLD" into bc to convert to binary.
(obase == output base)
If you still connect to your wireless access point manually and need to use wpa_supplicant, the above fu will grep all of the known SSID from your wpa_supplicant.conf file, present it in a Zenity list and return the SSID name you choose. I've wrapped this command in to a bash script that then up's the interface, associates and autenticates. Saves me from using NetworkManager ;)
Almost same output with fewer typing... OP had a great idea : BOFH !!!
The command is useful when, e.g., booting an existing system with a rescue or installation CD where you need to chroot into the hard-disk and be able to do stuff which accesses kernel info (e.g. when installing Ubuntu desktop with LVM2 you need to mount and chroot the hard disk from a shell window in order to install packages and run initramfs inside chroot).
The command assumes that /mnt/xxx is where the chroot'ed environment's root file system on the hard disk is mounted.
Friday is the 5th day of the week, monday is the 1st.
Output may be affected by locale.
populate the auth.hosts file with a list of IP addresses that are authorized to be in use and when you run this command it will return the addresses that are pingable and not in the authorized list.
Can be combined with the "Command line Twitter" command to tweet unauthorized access.
