Oh! Came up with a new one, though it’s more of a unixism than a Linux specific thing.

I really wish that the core utils and other cli tools had a standard structured output option, like yaml, json, or toml so that it would be easier to parse rather than all of the random regular expressions needed when piping output around.

Edit: And it would be great if we also picked that same format for config files instead of all the bespoke stuff in /etc.

You mean like git?

Honestly, not much.

The first would be that the webcam in my work laptop goes in and out of working pretty regularly. It happens to the whole team so I know it’s not just mine. I end up using an external one pretty regularly. Mostly I’m annoyed at Dell for not providing proper driver support.

The second is that there are a very small number of applications that I occasionally use where I need to fire up a VM. But even that is more of I’m annoyed at the organization that forces me to use an obsolete proprietary file format once a quarter.

You mean trusted Open Source projects.

That is a surprisingly strong recommendation. I’m glad everyone was safe, keep it shiny side up.

Thanks for the review; I’m glad it’s working out well for you. Time for me to meander out for a test drive.

Oh, that’s really handy to know. Thanks!

How do you like it? It’s on my short list for my next car.
