If we were speed running the extinction of humanity, then yes!

Blocking the sun is not a practical solution. Putting something up in the atmosphere is untested and super dangerous. It could cause all life on Earth to die out like the Matrix.
Physically blocking the sun is also practically impossible. It requires that we put an object in space in a Lagrange point (gravitationally stable points around Earth) which is very far away and the sun shield would have to be approximately the size of Brazil. Launching that much material into space and getting it into position, and then unfurling it would be a HUUUUUUGE undertaking the likes of which we have never seen. Plus, launching all those rockets, mining the materials, etc, would emit so many tonnes of green house gasses that by the time we actually did it we might be in an even worse position.
Mind blown the first time I realized those weird bugs on the left are baby Ladybugs!
This tip is super useful to me because not everyone is using a PC. On a PC sure, I would use the Home and End keys all the time. Now I'm using a laptop as my main computer and the Home and End keys are in a weird position that even to this day, 4ish years of laptop use, I still have to actually look at the keys to find them.
My favorite tips are:
You can filter the output of a command. Most commands return parameters like (output, error) so you can filter them by number like 1>/dev/null will filter the output and only show the errors, and 2>/dev/null will filter the errors and only show the output. Also if you want a command to run silently but it doesn't have it's own built-in quiet mode you can add &>/dev/null which will filter everything.
Bash (and other shell's I assume) can be fully customized. In addition to the .bashrc file in your home directory, there are also a few common files that bash will look for like .bash_aliases, .bash_commands, .bash_profile or you can create your own and just add to the end of the .bashrc file ./YOUR_CUSTOM_BASH_FILE_NAME
Inside that file you can add any custom commands you want to run for every bash shell like aliases and what not.
I personally often use a simple update command like so alias up='sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt autoremove -y' which just makes running updates, upgrades, and clean-up so much easier. Just type up and enter your password. I have previously added in things like &>/dev/null to quiet the commands and echo Fetching updates... to make some commands quieter but still give some simple feedback.
There's also the basics of moving around a terminal command as others have pointed out. The easiest and the one I use the most is if you hold CTRL+LEFT_ARROW the cursor will move entire words instead of one character at a time. Very helpful if you need to change something in the middle of a command.
Good old redditor take that doesn't explain anything in a snide way.
The problem is wealth inequality which the Waynes directly contribute to.
I'm not sure if I've seen that one, I'll have to check it out, thanks!
Is it this one? http://weebls-stuff.com/toons/alpaca-animated-music-video-mrweebl/
Or maybe you were referring to the Llamas In Hats series? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBE8C175E9FAAA34A
I was always partial to the Amazing Horse one for some reason. http://weebls-stuff.com/toons/amazing-horse-animated-music-video-mrweebl/
I used to listen to it for hours and a weird quirk of Flash animations was that often the audio track and the video were milliseconds off so over time it would get very out of sync.
YouTube?! Surely you mean Flash! This came from the creator Weebl who had a ton of great Flash animations on his website. Actually I can't believe it, but the website is still up in 2024!
Here's the badgers one specifically: http://weebls-stuff.com/toons/badgers-animated-music-video-mrweebl/
Current Linux market share worldwide for desktops is at ~4%. There's also ~2% ChromeOS which is Linux based so I don't know why it's listed separately. As well as ~6% other which is probably Linux with privacy settings turned on.
If we go back 5 years in Linux desktop usage, the high end is including the "Other" category.
2019: ~2% to ~9% 2020: ~2.5% to ~5% 2021: ~3.5% to ~11.5% 2022: ~4.5% to ~10.5% 2023: ~6.5% to ~10% 2024: ~6% to ~12%
There is definitely a growing trend, the user base has grown somewhere between 33% and 300% depending on whether you include the "Other" category, which I personally think is a pretty safe assumption since for most PC users if it's not Windows or Os X, it's Linux.
Here's where I got the data from: https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/desktop/worldwide
I would argue that Bioshock is one of the few video game franchises that would probably do well in a non-interactive story medium. It's a very story driven video game. As long as they trust the writers to respect the source material and come up with a compelling story, I think it could be great. There's always a chance that it's a disaster though.
Mispronounced words by British people are unacceptable though. The Brits need to be stopped!
