A while ago I made a tiny function in my ~/.zshrc to download a video from the link in my clipboard. I use this nearly every day to share videos with people without forcing them to watch it on whatever site I found it. What’s a script/alias that you use a lot?
# Download clipboard to tmp with yt-dlp
tmpv() {
cd /tmp/ && yt-dlp "$(wl-paste)"
}
Here are probably the most useful ones. I prefer for
rm
to be interactive so I don’t accidentally delete something important and formkdir
to create a parent directory if necessary.This extract function (which I didn’t make myself, I got it from when I was using nakeDeb) has been pretty useful too.
I have a similar docker/podman alias, except I pull first. This greatly reduces downtime between
down
andup
, which is nice for critical services.Yeah, that makes sense. I don’t have anything critical; just nginx, a book server, a recipe collection, and some other small stuff.
