In this video I wanted to cover something fun so I chose the sl command in Linux and Unix systems. SL stands for Steam Locomotive and its a joke for typed ls commands.
One thing I didn’t share in the video is capital LS is a link to sl and not a alias. At least in mint Linux.
Replaced the battery on a 2015 Kindle Fire 7.
I wanted to build a new workstation for video editing and opensource fun. I didn’t realize the the RYZEN processor does not support on board video but after installing a motherboard speaker and contacting ASUS through online chat I ordered a GTX 1050 Ti video card and success.
In this build I use:
AMD RYZEN 5 1600 6-Core 3.2 GHz
G.SKILL Flare X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400 (PC4 19200)
ASUS PRIME B350-PLUS Motherboard
GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
Seagate 4TB BarraCuda SATA 6Gb/s 256MB Cache
ROSEWILL Gaming 80 Plus Gold 650W Power Supply
Corsair Carbide Series 270R – Mid-Tower ATX Case
EDUP Wireless Usb Adapter 5.8GHz/2.4GHz Dual Band
In this video we cover Linux strings and how to print printable characters in a binary file.
First we look at the strings man page and then we go over some examples
