Maybe an alternative way:
Pic A - Normal image
Pic B - Same place illuminated with ultraviolet light
- yeah that would make more sense
Barbarians.
ls -la, for civilized people.
- -lah gang rise up
  
  -Ahl here! Human-readable sizes and get rid of . and ..!
  edit: format code so ..! doesn't look funny :D
- I like ls -Ap, the -p option is convenient, it puts a / at the end of names if they're directories. -A is like -a but doesn't show . and ..
  -l is sometimes useful, but a bit cluttered and less readable (at least to me, maybe it wouldn't be if I were used to using it)
- Do you mean putting the l before the a, or just the l and a flags in general?
- That's what we call lla here at ~
ls -a1
Showing what's in the cupboards & drawers is more like
ls -R
I like the la alias.
- ll so you don't even have to move your finger
  
  PS1=$(ls -a)
  
  Doesn't show dotfiles.
  
  but if your hand is already on the keyboard, it's faster to type la than ll since you can move two hands faster than one (if they're doing the same movement, since with one hand you'd need to do the movement, reset and do it again)
  
  But I have 10 of those to type with?
  
  l
"So that's where all my stuff went!"
speed through the house with ncdu
I'm an ls -alh guy, myself.
- Human-readable? What, are you some kind of human?
ls -latr
To see where's the most recent shit cause that's what I'm interested in.
Is -alR killed my parents
- Lulz, I tried that just to see the results. Either the terminal knows to not go crazy, or this fresh install is small enough to not take more than 5 seconds.
And whatmade tool might tell you how all this garbage appeared here if you forgot.
ls -hal
.trash
man i just figured out DOS in the 80s i'm slow okay
ls -ha.. is Linux laughing at my mess..???
alias dir="ls"
Average xdg noncompliance moment.
