Hey Travis! Great Stuff.
Kindly upload more linux tutorials for beginners

I love this! You give a short abstraction, then follow up with a lot of examples. And the examples you choose are real-life, useful examples. This way, the explanations are easy to understand and teach us things we can actually use. Thanks a lot! Some videos and live lectures make me want to reach through the screen and shake the lecturer, this one is the opposite

OMG thank you. I know Windows backwards. IT for nearly 25 years. I've has a RAID 5 NAS running Ubuntu for 13 years and had no idea what was under the hood or where anything is. Thanks to you, I have my first understanding of How, What, Where things are. Thanks oh so very much !

Tip 6 doesn't seem to work on AArch64.

Tried it on macOS 14.2.1 (M1) and got 2 problems:
1. No touch ID prompt. Instead I got admin password entry popup window.
2. When OS is updated, the changes in /etc/pam.d/sudo were lost.

set your bash readline editor to vi rather than emacs && both in vimrc and in bashrc remap "jk" as ESC. this little hack will save you a lot of time, and spare your pinky

Hey Travis, I notice that you run all linux commands in ubuntu. Would you like please explain how can I install ubuntu on my mac as you done it ?

[MaxShapirareal]

Thanks, Travis. Great job! Another way to create a folder and enter it is by doing this:

mkdir test && cd $_
