Created July 19, 2021 20:07
Responding to a Newbie Question from Reddit, I wrote out the script instead of being a jerk and having the person do it themselves with tedious instructions. Was great practice.
#!/bin/bash
echo "Path to the directory you would like to copy the names of the files to clipboard from please"
read DIR
ls $DIR > /tmp/names.txt
xclip -sel clip /tmp/names.txt
rm /tmp/names.txt

For anyone trying to install Brave Browser on Void Linux, cross-post from Reddit

Installing Brave Browser on Void Linux

For anyone curious in the future:

Yes, you can relatively easily install brave browser on void linux, if that is somehow a non-negotiable for you fear not. There are three methods that I am aware of:

  1. Add this template file to your fork of void-packages locally and build the ./xbps-src package like any other.

  2. Use flatpak, which I need not explain since instructions are on the flathub listing itself. (Note: will be isolated from the system which can be a bit of a pain, especially using things like keepassxc)

A script I use to convert all my fonts from OTF/TTF to WOFF/WOFF2/EOT
#!/bin/bash
# Author: Thomas Leon Highbaugh
# Description: Assuming you have the dependencies installed,
# this will convert your various OTF fonts to TTF than all your TTF fonts to WOFF,
# WOFF2 and EOT. This streamlines including fonts on websites, though consult with
# the font's license before using them for such!
#
# Note: for my own purposes, I have included the dependency installation commands that
# as they are found on archlinux's repositories and the AUR, adjust this to your own distro
# or comment them out otherwise you might have a bad time.

Notion Enhancer Needs Not DIe After All See UserScript and Note!

Notion Enhancer Lives

If you are like me, you are not going to start paying some developer to package pieces of the Notion Enhancer Extension in their own extension since Notion Enhancer had stopped working.

Well you don't have thanks to a user script I just found that defeats the means by which the extension had been blocked and must be how the alternatives are able to provide a more limited set of features while desperately trying to get you to upgrade to the pro version to access those old features you knew

A fully annotated script to remove spaces in file names that provides a thorough description of each portion of the script, describes the reasons for wanting to remove spaces and uses comment bars to create sections for the benefit of those learning BASH shell scripting and my own later reference.

Artix Linux Docker Images With the Universe and Omniverse Repos Enabled

As part of my on-going attempt to run my custom Linux environment from an ISO file to ease demonstration and reinstallation thereof, I found myself in need of an Artix Linux image that had two additional repositories available to it. Both of these are repositories put out by the project itself, here you can read about why they are not enabled by default and how to enable them in a fresh installation of Artix Linux. The reason this is necessary is that I need to install a package adding support for the Arch Linux repositories that was recently-ish moved to the Universe repo from Community, thus rendering my ISO
