    every command he runs is an alias

    rookie, most commands grow into functions because they become too complicated to stay as alias

      Aliases are for the weak. Memorize and type out the whole one-liner, wuss.

      “I don’t remember how to do that. Let me go check my .bashrc.” Literal clowning, smh.

      Hell, my docker compose alias is a function now because I can’t be assed to cd to my compose folder before running compose, and wanted to be able to still choose if I -d and/or what containers I wanted to start/stop.

    postman hands him card reader, he instantly asks where the settings are

    This is awesome XD

    “Bro this screen is too bright, is there a dark mode?”

    every command he runs is an alias

    Okay thats me. I love my aliases, I store them in separate files in ~/.config/fish/conf.d

      postman hands him card reader

      I’m not getting it. I guess I don’t interact with postmen enough, because I have no idea how a card reader is related to mail delivery.

          Perhaps it’s about payment-on-delivery.

          Pretty usual in Slovakia, though you’ll be generally charged some extra for not paying in advance. Usually something like €1.

          Idk, but it could be because the payment of the delivery is done ‘via surname’ to the postman when the package is handed over. So the bank can’t track on what you spend your money on (in case you are afraid they do). This option exists at least in Germany. However, it costs an high extra fee.

              It’s called “per Nachnahme”, C.O.D. in English. You’d pay the postman for your parcel and the post office would pay the sender. It used to be quite popular in pre internet days. You whippersnappers wouldn’t remember. Not used a lot any more these days.

    These people are a critical part of the computer ecosystem. Without them, no one would use any settings other than the default. We may not have yet discovered the dark theme.

    Good meme.

    Now do the “purist” that spends their entire life trying to strip everything possible off to “save memory” when they should probably just use Alpine or NetBSD.
