I’ll start:

  • Tmux
  • vim
  • ghidra
  • okteta (hex editor)
  • speedcrunch (calculator with bit manipulation)
  • python3 with IPython for nice reply and embed(), pwntools

      I’d drop keepassxc and pick up GNU password store or gopass. Pgp+git and a nice cli to wrap them onto an encrypted password store that’s pretty easy to move around these days.

        GNU password store

        The tool, unless something has changed in the meantime, has one major drawback for me. The filename of the encrypted files is displayed in plain text. However, I don’t want people to be able to see, for example, which Internet sites I have an account with. Sure you can name the files otherwise. But how should I remember for example that the file dafderewrfsfds.gpg contains the access data for Mastodon?

        In addition, I miss with pass some functions. As far as I know, you can’t save file attachments. Or define when a password expires. And so on. Pass is therefore too KISS for me.

        Pgp+git and a nice cli to wrap them onto an encrypted password store that’s pretty easy to move around these days.

        A matter of opinion, I would say. I prefer my Keepass file which I can access via my Nextcloud instance or which is stored on a USB stick on my keychain.

        By the way, the file is secured with a Yubikey in addition to a Diceware password. So saving it in the so-called cloud is no problem. Just as a note, in case someone reading my post wants to make smart remarks about the cloud.

        For me, this is the main reason why I use micro. And because I don’t like the handling of vim. Funnily enough, I’ve been playing around with Helix for a while now and I really like the editor, even though it’s a modal editor, just like vim. Maybe because of the selection → action model. The question is, do I like Helix better than micro? I still have to answer that question for myself at some point.

    I see a lot of the good ones are already mentioned. But I can’t use a linux system for more than an hour without ‘thefuck’ installed

  • @spauldo@lemmy.ml
    10•1 year ago

    For everything:

    • vi/vim
    • ssh & sshd

    For everything except firewalls:

    • C, C++, Perl, Common Lisp, Scheme programming tools
    • lynx
    • wget/curl
    • git
    • ksh (on *BSD)
    • telnet (yeah, there’s equipment that still uses telnet out there)

    For a desktop:

    • Emacs
    • xterm
    • GNU plotutils
    • TeXlive
    • X11 utilities (xcalc, editres, etc.)
    • Atmel and Arduino toolchains
    • xpdf
    • KDE
    • KiCad
    • GIMP
    • Inkscape
    • Firefox
    • Chromium
    • Kerbal Space Program

    One that I didn’t see on here that I’ve added to my list

    • tldr
      • simplified man pages with common example commands.-

    If on desktop

    • distro-box
    • yakuake
  • @GustavoM@lemmy.world

    • docker (What, you never wanted to use a optimized version of cmatrix that uses only 512KiB of ram while barely scratching your CPU?)
    • foot
    • brave
    • (on docker) btop, cmatrix, lynx
      • @GustavoM@lemmy.worldEnglish
        1•1 year ago

        Basically, a “handcrafted” cmatrix with compilation flags focused on optimization and the musl library (which is “technically better” than glib, a standard library on most distros).

        Do feel free to try it out however, its only 139KiB – click here.

        tl;dr guide on how to get it running

        1- Install docker (docker on most distros – docker.io on ubuntu and friends)

        2- sudo usermod -aG docker (addyourusernamehere)

        3- reboot

        4- run it with “docker run -it --rm --log-driver none --net none --read-only defnotgustavom/cmatrix:marchedition”

    None of those are must-haves…

    Shouldn’t you have posted this to /c/archlinux or other meme-distro communities?

    To add to all great comments here I have one that I’ve used for ages and not seen mentioned here: lftp

    It supports many protocols for ftp like over ssh and allows for shaky connections with resume and back in the days when this was more common I used to just run it in the background to download huge files that took days to download and it would gracefully just reconnect/resume/retry until done.

    • Fish
    • ssh Lots of others, but these are the day-to-day

      +1 for fish shell. The lack of POSIX compliance really doesn’t matter at all day-to-day, but all the qol features that the shell has absolutely do matter and they are so worth it.
