The CLI does some things so fast though. I myself like bypassing the gui and interacting more directly. Same reason I only drive manual cars and grind my own coffee (autistic?) But yes, I am glad linux has a gui and we shouldn’t force the cli on people who grew up with ipads.
Find a friend with one, otherwise the key is to be smooth and really feel the clutch engagement. It’s different for every vehicle. Its a balance between clutch and gas. With a lower power car you’ll need more gas to balance while letting the clutch out. With an old manual truck, you pretty much need no gas input to get going because of torque. Another good way to learn could be just pick up an old g27 or g29 wheel (they have 3 pedals and a shifter either h pattern or paddles) and learn that way with a racing simple like LFS, Asetto Corsa, or Automobilista 2.
Depending where you live there’s all sorts of sub $800 manual cars. That’s how I learned (rusty $500 crx)
ffmpeg is one of the things where I prefer the CLI. It’s crazy powerful, and does some insane things in pretty simple commands. I’ve seen a meme that says half the internet is just wrappers for ffmpeg, and I’m inclined to agree.
Also, as an arch user (btw) pacman / AUR are a much better experience than having to hunt down the installers for everything online.
Similarly, the right CLI tools make searching for files across my entire computer much simpler and way faster than I could ever do with a GUI

any tips for learning manual?
