Seriously, I was giving a presentation at a LUG meeting a few years ago, and during a break, some guys came up to me and said "We know you can't type that fast. How do you do that?"
We had the good sense to elect someone who wants what's best for the United States and realizes that it doesn't have to come at the expense of everyone else.
As other people said, we're getting there. This wasn't an overwhelming crushing defeat. About half of the people here voted the other way. It's going to be a while before more people get onboard.

Good lord yes. dmidecode is a godsend
I always use backtics to look at shell scripts in the path
cat `which shellscript`
And since you can't nest backtics, $(command argument1 $(command masquerading as argument 2))
du -hs
Unless you've forgotten to mount the remote shares, and you're wondering why / is completely full...
Never had that happen...nope, not me...
If you don't want directories,
ls -alSr | tail -n 10
Doesn't unix tar have -y for .Z ?
I've used "yum whatprovides" before. Is "provides" the same thing?
I knew the /etc/hosts, but I had no idea about known_hosts. That's excellent!
or "hey dumbass, there are 50,000 commands that start with 'x', do you really want me to list them all?"
funny! I just chanced on this blog entry about ZSH. It sounds really intriguing and apparently has great tab completion.

GNU spoils us Linux folks. The 'date' command on any non-GNU system is like GNU date's retarded little brother
I do all kinds of stuff like that, but I got in the habit a long time ago of doing it the "hard" way...
Example: creating tarballs of datestamp'd directories:
for FILE in 200808* ; do tar zcvf $FILE.tar.gz $FILE && rm -rf $FILE ; done
The manpage for 'find' is amazing. I also love the manpage for 'bash'.
And whoever decided to extend 'date' into the miracle that is GNU date deserves a medal.
After you cat something you shouldn't, and the console is screwed, 'reset' works wonders
If the screen isn't screwed, and you just want it cleared, "clear"
warfail?
You're right! Progressive liberals in charge! This country might stop regressing back into the dark ages. Here's to hoping.
What signs will you be watching for?
You're really more afraid of Obama in the White House than you are of an Islamic terrorist? Really?
Can I ask why?
> Think GW Bush ever DREAMED he'd be THIS much of a uniter?
Ha! That's hilarious. I'm stealing that

I honestly don't think that the interests of the US and the interests of the world are mutually exclusive.
I'm all about using a configuration management system to handle that.
My problem is that I don't know what to use. What's out there, and what do you suggest?
I'm sure you do. Your outside facing web servers need to be accessible all the time, though, I'm sure.
