A script full of functions that I perform often, like:
My .bashrc then
source
s that script, so to use those functions I simply open a terminal. And if I ever need to delete my .bashrc and recreate it anew, they're safely stored in my scripts directory.If you're comfortable running Docker, check out net probe. It comes with an all in one logging/graphing stack that will probe your internet quality based on lag and packet loss. Default configs is good enough to get you going and you can tinker to your heart's content from there. Probably won't play Black Sabbath automatically though unfortunately!
The black Sabbath for Internet connection is hilarious. Did you get that from the Bitcoin mining trigger bit on Silicon Valley?
No, that's a coincidence. I wanted something that: started loud, was easy to recognise, I don't mind hearing, and my neighbours don't listen to. Wicked World it is.
Here's the code by the way, with the
echo
translated:It's dirty but it works. (My functions start with "lvx" to avoid the tiny chance that they might clash with system functions.)
Ha, very nice!
