I remember early Unix. Command line hell.I still remember seeing the lotus program commercial for Lunix.
I used a variety of commercial unixes in the 90s, and a variety of linux distros since then. I'm typing this on a Macbook Pro, where I still use the terminal (command line) as my primary interface (I currently have a number of them open, some for local tasks, some running software tests at a lab in Switzerland).I remember early Unix. Command line hell.
Got worse when people first started trying to use the Unix core for other systems without checking syntax compatibility.
Crud, what a nightmare.

I regard any computer which only allows you to interact via a GUI as a toy. And anyway, navigating filesystems by hunting and clicking through icons is very much a case of "life is too short for that crap" . But yes, I try to use bash everywhere for consistency, though use zshell on some systems.

My son does the same. I'm willing to bet that he has less than five bucks on him at any time. He pays most all of his bills with a cash back card. I'm just old school that has always been a cash guy. We have a credit card of some flavor but we never use it. It might be a cash back card.. I have no idea. I know there is no annual fee for having what I consider insurance.I put everything I buy on a cash rewards credit card and pay it off and that end of the month. It's literally free money and safer than carrying cash.
