Terminal forever <3 https://www.commitstrip.com/en/2016/12/22/terminal-forever/? #unix #linux #macos #freebsd

This is a webcomic about computer hardware from 1980 to 2034, where each decade users gain more CPU processing power and RAM but still primarily use a terminal to get most of their work done instead of GUI.

1980: 5 Mhz CPU/ 1 MB RAM - User is amazed by the command line's simplicity.
2001: 200 Mhz CPU / 24 MB - User finds the terminal more efficient than GUIs.
2017: 3.2 Ghz CPU / 8 GB RAM - User expresses love for the command line.
2034: 150 Ghz GPU / 1 TB RAM - User dismisses GUIs as being for beginners, even with vastly increased computing power.

@nixCraft 2024: These AI prompts are so useless, I'd rather just enter a shell script at the command line using "cat" or "echo!"
