useful one liner that updates the system and removes orphaned packages to free up disk space :
sudo pacman -Syu --noconfirm && sudo pacman -Qdtq | sudo pacman -Rns - --noconfirm
Doing this automatically via a script can sometimes create problems. It is usually best to review the packages you intend to uninstall prior to doing so.

I can confirm this has happened to me once. Not a biggie, still a pity :).

It will put tabs at the bottom. Though I’m not sure this counts as a script.
It’s for firefox you need to put it in the chrome folder in you firefox profile and have CSS turned on in fire fox but,
Saved as userChrome.css
#TabsToolbar {
position: absolute;
display: block;
bottom: 0;
width: 100vw;
background-clip: padding-box;
color: var(--toolbar-color);
}
#tabbrowser-tabs {
width: 100vw;
}
#navigator-toolbox {
position: relative;
padding-bottom: calc( var(--tab-min-height) + 8px );
}
#main-window[tabsintitlebar][sizemode="maximized"]:not([inDOMFullscreen="true"]) #titlebar {
height: 36px;
}
.titlebar-buttonbox-container {
position: fixed;
right: 0;
visibility: visible;
display: block;
}
#TabsToolbar .titlebar-buttonbox-container,
#TabsToolbar #window-controls {
display: none;
}
Location should look something like /home/$USER/.mozilla/firefox/ <Your Profile>
I don’t remember where I found this code was like 8+ years ago. but was before ML.

Browsing log streams with fzf
I found this from the author fzf: Browsing log streams | junegunn.choi.
This is the log file I wanted to see.
journalctl -b -1 | fzf --tail 100000 --tac --no-sort --exact --wrap
Best practices (from the website):
Use --tac to see the newest items up front
Use --wrap to prevent truncation of long lines
You might want to use --no-sort option to keep the order of the items intact without sorting
You’ll likely see many irrelevant matches, so try disabling fuzzy matching with --exact
Now you can have fun browsing in combinations for example: fail wayland

This will only run for those using X11 window manager and KDE. (but can be modified to run other desktop environments on X11.)
Originally written for Debian, i recently modified this script to run Arch Linux. It is a photo slide screensaver, that i wrote because i did not like how xscreensaver portrayed, (ugly black edges,) and randomized (very badly,) the photos. (It will install itself, and give instructions where to run the screensaver from. ($HOME/“Scripts/screensaverfiles/screensaver2.sh”))
First install the dependencies listed at the beginning of the Script, if not installed already, and modify the default settings if you want.
Once install it will display your photos randomly, and in aspect, from your default Picture directory, with the same photo blurred in the back ground filling up the entire monitor. It will detect if you are using sound, or if your power settings have turned the monitor off. It will NOT show the same photo twice, but remove the photo out of the photo list, once shown. When the photo list runs out, it will automatically fill it up again from your default Picture directory.
The only issue with Garuda is that KDE’s main panel has a mind of its own, and keeps popping up randomly. For myself i use pixelcolor to detect if the panel has popped up and put it down again, however since i do not know where people have their panel on the screen i kept part of the code out and simply minimize the panel ever 1.4 seconds. If you want the pixelcolor function restored let me know and i give you the lines needed.
Cheers.

Well he is 14 now so yeah.
I have the Logitech MX Keys S - keyboard and MS Master 3S mouse. To get the battery levels I needed to install the extra/solaar 1.1.13-2 [installed] application, it’s both GUI and CLI. Both give the battery level but it’s cumbersome (It does complain about not having a Gnome extension). I simplified this with a one-liner.
solaar show 2>&1 | awk '/Codename/{ CODENAME=$3 " " $4 " " $5; next } /Kind/{ KIND=$2; next } / Battery/{ print CODENAME ", " KIND ": " $2, $3 }'
The output looks like:
MX KEYS S, keyboard: 35%, discharging.
MX Master 3S, mouse: 75%, discharging.
I did think of adding it to conky and fastfetch, but it takes 9 seconds to run this on my computer. Quick note, the ‘2>&1’ suppresses solaars message about Gnome and the search for battery yielded 2 per device so adding 12 spaces eliminated one of them. The fun in doing this, was getting awk to find 6 lines and combine them into 2 output lines. Hope the necrobumping isn’t too bad.

Hi there @ARClite.
Necbumping on this type of thread is just fine. It’s the threads requesting technical assistance that we prefer to not be resurrected, as information can become quickly outdated with a rolling distro.
Love that one liner @ARClite, thanks for posting your solution.

Nice one, but autostart solaar and you can check it in the tray bar 
at least easy under KDE.
solaar show 2>&1 | awk '/Codename/{ CODENAME=$3 " " $4 " " $5; next } /Kind/{ KIND=$2; next } / Battery/{ print CODENAME ", " KIND ": " $2, $3 }'
MX Master 3S, mouse: 70%, discharging.
MX KEYS S, keyboard: 80%, discharging.
Yeah, awk from solaar show is tricky 
Well done

A handy little script for any X11 KDE system, which could easliy be configured to run on other desktops as well
This handy little screensaver script will install itself. And automatically prepare your photos, and display the photos 100% random, if you desire. Neither will it show the same photo twice, but fill, and then empty the photo list completely, before reloading a new photo list. Also it will show any photo in perspective with any possible sides filled with the same photo resized, blurred, and colour reduced, as back ground. So no ugly black sides to your photos.
All instruction are on the first lines of the script. (i use Geany to edit, and test, my script, handy as!)
Cheers.

I lost a sizable directory and got tired of ‘du’. So added this to config.fish:
alias lss 'eza -al --total-size --color=always --group-directories-first --icons' # preferred listing with directory size
2 Likes
That’s a good one! We added that exact alias to the default config last year (except as lsz).
The way they color code it from green to red is a nice touch, very easy to see where the big files are with just a glance.
Maybe off-topic for this thread, but another really nice app for checking file size on disk is dua-cli.
It is incredibly fast, and the TUI mode makes it super easy to drill down into a large directory to see where the big files are.

Interesting, I took a look in the default config for a lsz type alias but didn’t find one. I rebuilt on 2024-11-14 with the garuda-dr460nized-linux-zen-240428 iso and it’s not in /etc/skel/.config/fish/config.fish file.
Thanks for the dua-cli

That’s weird. Do you have 1.5.23 of garuda-fish-config installed? At least in /etc/skel, your Fish config should look like this: garuda-fish-config/config.fish · main · Garuda Linux 🦅 / PKGBUILDs · GitLab
# Replace ls with eza
alias ls 'eza -al --color=always --group-directories-first --icons' # preferred listing
alias la 'eza -a --color=always --group-directories-first --icons' # all files and dirs
alias ll 'eza -l --color=always --group-directories-first --icons' # long format
alias lt 'eza -aT --color=always --group-directories-first --icons' # tree listing
alias l. 'eza -ald --color=always --group-directories-first --icons .*' # show only dotfiles
pacman -Qi garuda-fish-config
Name : garuda-fish-config
Version : 1.5.23-1
No lsz in skel
pacman -Ss garuda-fish-config
garuda/garuda-fish-config 1.5.23-1 [installed]
I have the same as SGS in /etc/skel.
There is a different number of lines (176 in …Gitlab)
cat /etc/skel/.config/fish/config.fish | wc -l
171
Looks like I did not properly bump the pkgver, causing garuda-fish-config to become “stuck” on an old version. 
This ought to fix it:
1.5.24 should be showing up shortly, which will finally deliver the updated config to /etc/skel. Thanks for the heads-up @ARClite!
