Tip of the Week
If you want to give Snaps a try but are not on an Ubuntu based distro…don’t fret. Despite Snaps being created by Canonical…they can be used on most distros.
As an example:
Fedora just type: sudo dnf install snapd - [link]
With Arch Snap is available in the AUR - [link]
How to install in openSUSE - [link]
other distros - [link]
You may need to enable them with systemctl command post install using:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket

Tip of the Week
apropos -s 1 “” | shuf -n 1
Full Message:
"Hello everyone! love the show. Been a Linux user for a little bit now and I get lots of tips and tricks from you guys. I wanted to share a trick I recently started using to learn commands/tools/stuff. There are so many commands and functions that I would feel overwhelmed learning about them. I came across the apropos command using the -s 1 “” when using that options you will see tons of output and their definitions. This is where your anxiety starts. BUT if you pipe that into the shuf command followed by -n 1 it will output one random command with the brief definition. The full command would be apropos -s 1 “” | shuf -n 1 I then put this in my bashrc start up so when I log into the system it will output one of those random commands. I will then take that one output and make it my mission to know everything I can about it by the end of the day. (if its something I already know, I will run the command until I see something new) Hope someone finds this helpful. Keep marching!"
