So hey, I want to launch the GNOME Settings app from the terminal, so I guess I just type settings...
Linux Gods: no, you muggle, you type gnome-control-center, of course.
To be fair it would be pretty stupid if they called the binary "settings". There isn't just one desktop on Linux and if everyone started calling their settings app that, we'd have packages clashing with each other left and right.
Also "gnome-control-center" still beats "open -b com.apple.systempreferences" on macOS and... uhm, I'm not even sure if you can do that on Windows 😂
@fribbledom I know, imagine calling the binary for the Settings app, settings. Only an absolute idiot would do that.
@aral
"apps"?! *scoffs in sysadmin*
If you want to change some system settings, use `sudo cat /etc/{you use tab completion until you find what you wanted to change}`, then `sed -i 's/{line you want to change}/{what you want to change it to}/g' {filename}`
You see, the unix philosophy is focused on simplicity and versatility...
