I downvoted this via GUI. Using a touchscreen. Whatcha gonna do bout it?
Oh yeah? I’m gonna steal all ur megahertz by typing really fast!
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
The unicode “three dots” character is making me irrationally angry. In the terminal, just use three dots!
I’m high school I attended a summer programming program where all of the computers we used were CLI Unix boxes. No GUI, no Windows XP. Just the command line and you. Learned quite a bit there, from basic C++ to very simple shell scripting.
I liked making my terminal environment black with lime green text a la The Matrix because it made me feel like a h4x0r.
Green on black is easy on the eyes. I used to rock an amber on black monitor on my 486/33 486 DX 66 (I upgraded the CPU). It was full SCSI, coax networking, dial-up modem, and Red Hat (Halloween). The disc came with either a book or a magazine. It’s been a minute.
I still have the machine in storage. Fully wrapped in cellophane.
EDIT: When I finally shut her down, her final uptime was a little over 2300 days. We were moving so down she went.
Some languages (French is the most well known for this) don’t have a neutral gender.
The terminal is itself an application or GUI where the input is text. What you really want to do is enjoin your spinal cord nerves to the chip interconnect so that you communicate efficiently using just electrical activity or the change in voltages.
Daily driving a cli only linux distro is surprisingly feasible these days due to the resurgence of various TUI applications. I’m still not insane enough to do it myself tho
Web browsing is still kind of hard though. And games. But that’s because they are designed around graphics these days.
But for the rest of it, there’s a LOT of work I can get done on a nice terminal or three.
