My personal favorite is powerdevil-ddcutil. It lets you control your desktop monitor brightness in KDE.
What are the pros/cons of duc vs gdu or ncdu?
It has a pie chart in terminal! I used baobab for this, but it’s only for systems with gui,this works on servers via ssh.
Edit: I think I misunderstand something. Does it have the piechart in the terminal?
honestly I haven’t tried either of these and a cursory glance on github seems its similar, duc is definitely a step up from just
du -csh *is all I can tell you.
units, always surprised that this old unix staple isn’t main repository. try:
units ‘40 rods/hogshead’ ‘miles/gallon’
as a nod to grampa simpson. have used ‘units’ in all sorts of DIY engineering efforts.
Thanks for linking powerdevil-ddcutil, cool to have that integrated into KDE. Looks like that will be enabled with Plasma 6 by default: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/78536#comment218014
One of my favorite AUR packages is noise-suppression-for-voice-git. It can be used as a pipewire plugin and can filter noise from sinks and sources, such as a microphone for example. Similar to the popular noisetorch, it’s also based on RNNoise. However, noisetorch can’t be loaded via a pipewire drop-in config and thus has to be started manually or via a systemd unit, and also performs an update check everytime it’s started. Thus noise-suppression-for-voice offers a cleaner solution IMO: https://github.com/werman/noise-suppression-for-voice#pipewire
I really like shell-color-scripts. It generates cool art in the terminal. It has flags to customize it, but I mostly use the -r flag (random) in my shell’s (fish and bash) startup config file so I have some cool art showing each time I open up a terminal or a shell session.
