My personal favorite is powerdevil-ddcutil. It lets you control your desktop monitor brightness in KDE.
What are the pros/cons of duc vs gdu or ncdu?
It has a pie chart in terminal! I used baobab for this, but it’s only for systems with gui,this works on servers via ssh.
Edit: I think I misunderstand something. Does it have the piechart in the terminal?
honestly I haven’t tried either of these and a cursory glance on github seems its similar, duc is definitely a step up from just
du -csh *
is all I can tell you.
I really like shell-color-scripts. It generates cool art in the terminal. It has flags to customize it, but I mostly use the -r flag (random) in my shell’s (fish and bash) startup config file so I have some cool art showing each time I open up a terminal or a shell session.
units, always surprised that this old unix staple isn’t main repository. try:
units ‘40 rods/hogshead’ ‘miles/gallon’
as a nod to grampa simpson. have used ‘units’ in all sorts of DIY engineering efforts.
