Some "not so standard" useful IP address stuff:
ip addr show eth0 ip -s link show eth0
Supposedly, those are the new standards, ha ha ha.
Muscle memory has me stuck on
ifconfig
Only the people here will understand how many times I've typed ifconfig instead of ipconfig, or ipconfig instead of ifconfig. So annoying (yes, I annoy myself.)

Annoying yourself is fine. Arguing with yourself is fine... But if you start to hear voices arguing back... Then you should worry.
However, I do feel your pain.

Only voices I hear arguing back are telling me to do dishes, take out the trash, etc....
Those definitely aren't in my head

@scottalanmiller Have you tried glances yet? Just curious.
-
No, I have not.
-
Running it now...
-
Really liking glances.
My Ubuntu install:
sudo apt-get install python-pip build-essential python-dev sudo pip install --upgrade glances sudo pip install bottle
Optional for hardware sensors:
sudo apt-get install lm-sensors sudo pip install PySensors
Just running "glances" at cli got me the interface. Web server worked like this:
sudo glances -w -B 10.1.1.1
Worked at http://10.1.1.1:61208
Ran a few simultaneous web server instances in the background for local network and Hamachi:
sudo glances -w -B 10.1.1.1 & sudo glances -w -B 25.25.25.25 &
Definitely going into rc.local now.
Anyone get https working?

That's really nice. I've never used the web version before, just the cli.

Just shows how little I've actually dug into it beyond running sensor-config first, I didn't realize it had another display available. The command line version works so well, and it made so I wasn't jumping between top, iftop and iotop all the time. I was a happy geek.

The mobile version is pretty slick too. Only reason I tried the web version was because of the screenshot on their website:

I like...
du -shx * | sort -n

So @travisdh1 reminded me of it this morning, but I use
watch
a lot. I also usepv
because no one likes sitting and waiting for dd to finish and not know your progress. -
Haven't used PV. I do use watch a bit.
Because of this thread I've been conditioning myself to use glances. It really is very useful.

That's really all I use pv for, I know people use it for other stuff, but that's all I really need it for.

Glad to hear someone else like it!

@johnhooks So, you just use
pv dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sda bs=512k
That's actually really handy.

YOu have to pipe it in, it's a strange syntax
dd if=/dev/zero | pv | dd of=/dev/sda
Also any flags or arguments go before the first pipe.
-
Very odd indeed.

That is a bit odd. Still handy tho.

Sample output.
