I am not advising you to use only everything curl online to get to know curl.

I often work on airgapped servers (they only seen LAN segments) where the man pages of all commands are crucial to have locally.

Use the site as an **addition** to the manpages.

#curl #libcurl #programming #technology #networking #protocols #ftp #http #https #ports #OpenSource #POSIX

curl libcurl
curl is the Swiss Army Knife of fetching programs

curl follows the UNIX principle, it does one thing, and it does it very good & curl has been doing it for decades.

If you want to know everything that curl does there are Man Pages. The man pages are not only for curl but also for libcurl. You are referred to libcurl immediately on the first page of man curl

This means that you have to read man curl and man libcurl

To make that a bit easier everything curl was created. Go there and check in a convenient manner what {lib} curl can actually do and be blown away.

I've made my screens caps on mobile. Look how nice everything has been divided.
I will also include screen caps from the desktop

So true
The bandwidth limit I was referring to is that of wttr in
The owner has put up an amount per day that is allowed to be used. People who come in on Port 443 via browser get much much lower priority than people who come in through curl. The browser response uses more bandwidth from the server, which makes the decision logical

If I need to synchronize between machines I use this program, Standard Notes, it's Open Source. For the rest I just open up vim.athena or vim.motif and put them in a .nfo file

What I also love about them is the low amount of bites that a simple curl call consumes

If more people would do that, the daily bandwidth quota would not be eaten up so much

Lenovo
TIl about an interesting OS option by Lenovo, on their notebook computers. Logical yet interesting and expected

You get an *Open Source* OS by default from Lenovo. No more win64 as default

If you want closed source you have to **ask** for it and pay the _hefty premium_ that microSoft's microslop demands, for their LLM infected, malware like OS. Lenovo wants to sell it's notebooks for the best price possible if you want an OS, and microsoft does not meet those demands anymore (for a while)

Distributions are interwoven with the GNU principles.
Before distributions I would have to download the GNU program Source Code one by one, then cross compile (GCC for example) them.
Once chicken egg tools were cross compiled I could start with native
./configure; make; make test; make install

Quote
Specifically, free software means users have the four essential freedoms: (0) to run the program, (1) to study and change the program in source code form, (2) to redistribute exact copies, and (3) to distribute modified versions.
^Z

These are important pillars of Free Software

protip: find some useful information on a website? worried it might not be there next time you look? run this command to download it:

wget -pkcE --wait 1 http://example.org

explanation:
- wget: get something from the web
- p: "page requisites", aka include any images on the page.
- k: convert links on the original page, so that your archived page doesn't look for its images on the real website.
- E: fix extensions. basically this means that if the original page was not .html, it will be converted to .html.
- c: continue. if you interrupt the download you can run this command again and it will continue where it left off.
- wait 1: wait one second between downloads so you don't spam the website with requests. optional, but polite.

you can also add -m if you want to mirror the *entire* website. this will grab other html files from links and then download their dependencies too. this is probably overkill if you just want to save a blog post, but it's good to know it exists.

based on a tip I found here:

About GNU

GNU was launched in 1983 by Richard Stallman

Quote
The primary and continuing goal of GNU is to offer a Unix-compatible system that would be 100% free software. Not 95% free, not 99.5%, but 100%. The name of the system, GNU, is a recursive acronym meaning GNU's Not Unix—a way of paying tribute to the technical ideas of Unix, while at the same time saying that GNU is something different. Technically, GNU is like Unix. But unlike Unix, GNU gives its users freedom.
^Z

Realize this
Without GNU, Linux {distributions} would *not* exist. You would only have a kernel after boot, no user land programs

Be grateful for the existence of GNU
