How to use terminal on Windows without going crazy…

Windows is really horrible system for developers and especially for devops. It doesn’t even have a usable terminal and shell, so working with command line is really pain in the ass. If you really don’t want to switch to any usable system (OS X, Linux, BSD…), then this guide should help you to setup somewhat reasonable environment – usable terminal, proper shell, ssh client, git and Sublime Text as a default editor for shell.

Install stuff

1. Download and install Git for Windows* with:
   • [✘] Use Git from the Windows Command Prompt

• [✘] Checkout as-is, commit Unix-style line endings

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

• There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

Unless you are downloading files which are explicitely(1) marked being full modpack you downloaded zip which does not include mods, only pack medata data and configs. You can not import that that zip into third party launcher.

If you want to use those zips you must use third party tools to download mods and to build instance.

Basic macaron shell recipe

• This will make approximately 100 shells, or about 4 dozen cookies
• When practicing, I generally half this recipe to only make 1 sheet of cookies
• When making macarons, you will generally flavor the filling but not the shells
• You want to make the macarons the day before the event. You will store them in the refrigerator over night, and then take them out a few hours before to come to room temperature. This is because macarons are best when "ripened", or allowed to sit for at least one night and have the filling seep into the shells a bit. Otherwise, straight out of the oven, they can be too crunchy or hard
• Macarons shells freeze well! Filled macarons can also freeze well depending on the filling. Buttercream fillings freeze great. Put the cookies into an airtight container before freezing
• Everyones baking temperature and baking time vary depending on their oven - you might have to experiment a bit!
• _I always separate egg whites myself by cracking the egg, p

The repository for the assignment is public and Github does not allow the creation of private forks for public repositories.

The correct way of creating a private frok by duplicating the repo is documented here.

For this assignment the commands are:

1. Create a bare clone of the repository. (This is temporary and will be removed so just do it wherever.)

git clone --bare git@github.com:usi-systems/easytrace.git

Here are the mods I recommend. These are all compatible with the latest versions of SMAPI and Stardew Valley on Linux/macOS/Windows. See the player's guide to using mods if you're interested.

Quality of life

I think the best mods are those which improve the game while maintaining its balance, lore, and style.

• AutoGate
  Gates open automatically when you approach and close behind you.

• Better Sprinklers Plus
  Customise the sprinkler radius, with a proportional change to their cost. If you're willing to mine all the ores you'll need, that makes the basic sprinklers useful early in the game and lets you do more than just watering crops every day.

m3u8 Downloading

1. Open Chrome Developer tools and click the Network tab.
2. Navigate to the page with the video and get it to start playing.
3. Filter the list of files to "m3u8".
4. Find master.m3u8 or index.m3u8 and click on it.
5. Save the file to disk and look inside it.
6. If the file contains a single m3u8 master url, copy that one instead.
7. Run the program m3u8x.
8. Paste the same m3u8 url in both textboxes (URL and Quality URL) and click "Headers" and set the referral url and user-agent from the request as found in Chrome.

1.13 and 1.14 are lumped together in this doc, you're on your own if you just want to go to 1.13 and not 1.14, for some reason.

Things in Advance

• ResourceLocation now throw on non-snake-case names instead of silently lowercasing for you, so you probably should go and change all those string constants now. More precisely, domains must only contain alphanumeric lowercase, underscore (_), dash (-), or dot (.). Paths have the same restrictions, but can also contain forward slashes (/).
