  • As far as I remember, there is a bash setting that controls whether the command history is written immediately after execution (in which case it is immediately available on all tabs/windows of the console) or after closing the session (in which case it will be available next time/potentially lost if the window is forcibly closed etc).

    The default is the second one as far as I remember.

    That said, I had changed to a more powerful one in zsh years ago, so it’s been a while…







  • Must have had bad luck! I mean I’ve fixed many a Linux computer in my time so I know it’s not perfect, but I guess my expertise helps me avoid a lot of the pitfalls of Linux by generally reading the fucking manual and understanding what I’m doing.

    Windows though will break and also install bullshit updates and reset your settings when you do everything right, and that’s what gets me every time.

    Why is automounting at boot without credentials a necessity and intuitive for you. No, I would expect it to mount exactly once and to require me to input username and password before I mount my porn collection so that my sister does not see it.

    I don’t get why you claim that windows does this correctly and Linux does not. It would be the opposite for me.

    Besides, the important point in this example is to actually mount the folder to do your job. In your example, both systems do this equally well with an equally well UI, before your automounting nonsense.
