I can barely use cd command in linux

Klossy is that you?

remember to use tab-completion. That's one of the most helpful tools when using the shell.

is this adventure time quote

Don't worry about it.

t. been using linux successfully for years and still barely use terminal

tab completion and history is your friend.
ctr-r . or simply arrow up a few times.

what do you with it? playing solitaire for linux?

Quick pro-tip for using the command line that a ton of tutorials skip for what ever reason. Say you want to open a file with a program i.e "zathura coolshit.pdf" and you hit enter you've wasted a terminal session when you could have instead done "zathura coolshit.pdf &" and the pdf viewer would open and that terminal session would be free for you to use on anything else. When I learned this trick it really motivated me to continue the secrets of the terminal.

most laptops don't even a cd drive anymore

we're all gonna make it someday

>not having a disc accelerator

cd..
cd..
cd ..
ls

So I have to execute "program thisfileresidinginthisspecificdirectory(/Documents) "
Is there a better way than first "cd ~/Documents" then executing that above line?

start a command with ./ if its executable
like ./test
or ./documents/test
to make an executable type chmod +x test (if you are already in the directory)
"chmod -x" removes executable function
use tab to autocomplete words

~ is the home dir. unless that long ass directory is your home dir.

they're pretty fucking ugly user...pussy probably stinks too

why do they look like monkey?

I still have to look at my text file for guidance every time I want to make a webm for Jow Forums.

This method makes the file sizes really small, but the quality is shitty and I don't know how to improve it.

To improve the quality, you need to pass these options to the vp8 encoder:
-quality best -cpu-used 0 -crf 10 -b:v 2500k

Where the last argument is the bitrate you want. I usually start with 2500k then bring it down until I start to see artifacts. Usually 500k-1000k is about right but if there's not much motion 200k can look decent.

I do it in one combined process instead of three steps like you. Here's the full command:
ffmpeg -hide_banner -y -ss $START -i $INFILE -t $DURATION -c:v vp8
-quality best -cpu-used 0 -crf 10 -b:v 2500k -an -sn -dn $OUTFILE

what is tab?
what are aliases?

thanks user... do you save that as an alias?

Hello baby linuk frog.

I've been using Linux for 12 years and I have only learned about this from your post. God bless you user.

>not using shortcut commands with ranger

poor apu in solitary tard jail

Probably means you're a nigger. Sorry user. Only the nigger doesn't use command line.

>what is tab
Kill yourself pleb. Real men use *

I type ffmpeg and press up and hope that the last few ffmpeg commands I entered are what I need.

>4/10's become 10/10's
This is your brain on yellow fever. Not even once.

He didn't say they were hot even. Just qt. Which is debatable but who cares

i personally use
>ffmpeg -i video -c:v libvpx-vp9 -b:v -deadline best outvideo.webm
should be whatever you can get away with. I usually try to keep the file under 8MB for trannycord. if i feel autistic enough, i do two pass encoding.

but you can't post vp9 on Jow Forums

Litterally everyone in this is zoomer and retard.
Read the fucking wiki, man or --help. Or you will never learn anything.

>not reading info

ffmpeg -h | less
man ffmpeg

cd ..
cd ..
cd ..
cd bin
./fish

training wheels exist in the form of zshell and others

hahahaha concatenate_strings("Hello","World")
ohNoNONONONO

gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Job-Control.html

but if the command before the '&' prints to console/has errors it fucks up the terminal view sometimes

antioxidant infusions, tho

>type "cd "
>open Nautilus
>find directory
>drag into terminal
>press Enter
Wa la

apt install ranger

add this to your .profile or .bashrc or whatever shell you use:
alias ra='ranger --choosedir=$HOME/.rangerdir; LASTDIR=`cat $HOME/.rangerdir`; cd "$LASTDIR"'

now you can use ranger file manager to cd like a chad

libvpx is unfortunately very restrictive and can't be effectively tweaked for specific content.
Use a reasonably slow setting, VBR or CQ as bitrate control method and 2-pass encoding. If the quality isn't good enough, reduce the resolution and/or frame rate.
To calculate the bitrate in Kbps use
>video_bitrate = size_in_MB * 8 * 1000 / length_in_sec (- audio_bitrate)

-deadline good -cpu-used 0 produces pretty much the same results as -deadline best, but can be up to twice as fast.

'stty sane' to fix

mc is *lots* better

isn't it easier to just navigate to the directory in ranger and press "S"?

They look like shits

Wut? I don't know how this is possible. If you walk the Linux road, you have to walk the CLI road

Nobody installs software from a CD anymore.

But what if i want to concatenate_strings("Hello","World","!") ?
>fuck the function needs another parameter

if you can use cd, tell me what this does (without checking)
cd $HOME/../$USER/.././..

cd /

you better be op

And what if I'm not, big guy?

>ctrl-z
>bg
Don't forget to disown %1

like your parents?

Why tf would you open Nautilus just to use cd, could've used Thunar as it's more lightweight

>this thread
god the things lignux must have seen

>cd $HOME/../$USER
isn't going anywhere and equal to cd $HOME
so the rest is cd ../..

correct
this is not correct, since $HOME is not guaranteed to be two directories deep

Do you even know what ./ means, retard? It has nothing to do with execution

Or use xdg-open like a somewhat sane person

I have no troubles with any programming language but still prefer developing on Windows and for Windows.

really?

you're retarded, even macroshaft shipped wsl2 so users can have unix tools on their windows

>frogposter
>can't use basic shell commands
wow great thread OP
sage goes in all fields

No you are the retard

cd /
bin/ls
./bin/ls

Do you know what bash is nigger

it's a shell written by a black guy
why?

It's almost like you should use an array

Based

>array
It's Ruby. She can just use *args

You're both retards. ./ is to tell bash the executable is in the current directory and not in the $PATH
./ IS the path for the current directory
