Linux terminal tricks

Pointless (but fun) things you can do with a Linux terminal

Vscode finally figured out how to record the screen. Unfortunately they're doing it in 360p like it's 2006

POV: microsoft tells you to use linux.

Imagine a cow saying a rainbow train, that would be nice

[ErnestoConfused]

With great power comes gr—
OH MY GAWWWD LOOK AT THE PRETTY RAINBOW TRAIN!

I took a linux class a while ago. I can't remember what this package was called, but there was one that just played the entirety of Star Wars: A New Hope in Ascii recreation. Text bubbles and everything. It was cool, and I might have watched for way too long.
Can anyone help in finding it again, and maybe more like that?

These are all great and all but please make sure you guys upload a higher resolution video. YouTube portrait is really messed up and I'm getting highest 360p in my 1080x2160 phone display.

Another fun one that makes your monitor look like it’s in a 90’s movie is hollywood, for that extra hacker vibe.

[master_zenrade]

Ahh finally microsoft posting some good stuffs...

[userou-igze]

if you see green stuff floating down the screen, unfortunately it means you are _not_ the chosen one

Choo Choo! The Rainbow Train has arrived to the terminal!

It took me till the end of the video to realize this was Microsoft showing off Linux

[arindam-karmakar]

Finally I'm able to recognize the voice of Burke Holland!

there is also apt moo which shows a cow and says “Have you mooed today”

[FaisalAfroz]

Don't know why can't you guys improve video quality and landscape mode instead of portrait.

The most useful video for my day like coder . XD

[yandhik]

Fun fact: sl stands for Steam Locomotive

U forget the cacafire... a nice terminal fire

[mcjm_noonewillfindthis]

Honestly I really appreciate the effort of bringing the Linux terminal closer to new users. But these "features" are just not useful at all except for showcase. It would be amazing if we could have a video with actual beginner tips (and maybe higher resolution?), the terminal and vscode just work so well together, it would help a lot of people get things done faster

[someonehere]

those aren't tricks those are fun commands

[sparschaler]

Imagine WSL, but like a whole desktop of that
