I’m gonna have to pass on whatever ideology came up with that and work toward dismantling it.
That's been my outlook for a while too. There's only so much influence you can have over people are set in their thoughts and ways, but we can help with the larger generational change. For a lot of us, turning a corner for the sake of our kids might end up being our best legacy.
Also I can appreciate your tendency to read more than you post. Usually that characteristic leads to better quality posts when you do make them, because you are going to tend to read them yourself before submitting! I sometimes feel cheapened when I read "I CAN TYPING" posts that the authors clearly didn't take the time to read through.
Is there a way to defeat the "Command completed" notifications in a gnome-based session? At least out of the box on a fedora desktop, every shell command in kitty produces an alert at the top of the screen. The idea behind those notifications, as I understand it, is for if you've moved to another window while waiting for a long-running process to complete in your terminal. At least that's how it seems to work for the native gnome terminal: it produces a notification only if the window is not focused. Continually having stuff like "Command completed: ls" pop up as I type is a little too distracting for me.
