  • I am pretty sure your PC doesn’t block ICMP requests and you can get the MAC address of the IP address using the arp command and then check the first three octets against the MAC vendors database.

    This is all possible in Bash but the script will be slightly more complicated and will involve three different tools, ping, arp, curl.

    But I am sure you know how to check your PC IP address anyway.


  • One comment though, you are moving the bashrc and bash_profile instead of copying it. So consider fixing it in your instructions.

    You could have also run a for loop and ping all the IPs in your subnet. Something like this will work:

    for i in {1..254}; do ping -c 1 -W 1 192.168.1.$i &> /dev/null && echo 192.168.1.$i; done
    

    Presuming that your subnet is 192.168.1.0/24. This command will loop through all the IPs in this network and only print the one that are alive.

    I didn’t know that Steam have added an exception for /nix which is pretty cool. Thanks for sharing








  • You are really underestimating the complexity of the task of building a web engine.

    Another problem is that Chrome is already ubiquitous and most of the web sites are simply ignoring the Gecko and only optimise against Chromium.

    Don’t get me wrong, I truly wish we had more completion and I hope those projects take off and with time become a viable alternative of Chromium but I am somehow doubtful.
