At my local library, a little girl dropped her library books into the ‘return’ slot, waved and shouted “GOODBYE BOOKS, HAVE A GOOD DAY AT SCHOOL!” and my heart grew three sizes 🥺

@mur2501 Mastodon feel like a community, and Twitter feel like a cross-channel aggregated content platform

I'm remote teaching a #Linux performance and tuning course for some system administrators in Germany.

I share my terminal so the students can see the commands I'm typing for examples and such. When we take a break, I'll give them a time frame, then execute the following script in my terminal:

$ i=$((15*60)); while [[ $i -gt 0 ]]; do clear; echo $i | figlet; sleep 1; i=$(($i-1)); done

This is a large countdown timer in seconds. Screenshot attached with 419 seconds remaining.
