I don't know what happened, but since 6.2 rolled out on Fedora a week ago, I've had several bugs. At the very day I updated, I had two outright crashes. It happened a few more times since. My keyboard shortcuts don't work any more. Window layout behaves...odd (haven't pinned it down yet).

Just all-around messy upgrade. Am I the only one with problems, though?

That still doesn't look like a very heavy workload. My older box was older then your 6700k and was fine running such stuff.

Perhaps your limit isn't the CPU. What storage and ram setup do you have, did you look at that?

I'll be honest and say that when I replaced my old crap with 7900x I did feel improvements on occasion, mostly when I really burden the pc. Plus I think having 64 gigs of ram helps there, at my old system I hit the limits sometimes. Not often, but sometimes. Now my new box just laughs at anything I try to do to it.

I think a lot of the relevant stuff is written on the blog post:

Since when do Unix tools output 3,000 word long usage info? Even GNU tools don’t even come close…

The article sure mentions 💩a lot.

Bad for whom? What's the big O on that badness? Can you parallelize it and make it more efficient?

Tangentially, are there any jokes that can get parallelized well?

Why not just cd $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR in the first place?

did you mean smuts?

XDG specifies the capital names, but to be nitpickingly technically precise, linux systems don't do this. It mostly is done by the distribution maintainers, and the XDG specs. A base system does not usually have a notion of anything beyond your $HOME.

Try adding a user: sudo adduser basicuser. If you ls -al ~basicuser you will see it's almost empty, just the .bashrc (or in my fedora, there's some .mozilla crap in /etc/skel that also gets bootstrapped).

ln -s Downloads downloads FTW

For bash, this is enough:

# Bash TAB-completition enhancements
# Case-insensitive
bind "set completion-ignore-case on"
# Treat - and _ as equivalent in tab-compl
bind "set completion-map-case on"
# Expand options on the _first_ TAB press.
bind "set show-all-if-ambiguous on"

If you also add e.g.CDPATH=~/Documents, it will also always autocomplete from your Documents no matter which directory you're on.

These technologies, although archaic, clumsy and insecure

Like cars? Or phones? Those are also archaic, clumsy and insecure technologies.
