### Drew's hacks and tips
|
|
|
|
1. **Timeshift** - A restore tool for Linux, designed to create and manage snapshots of your system.
|
|
|
|
2. **Grep** -
|
|
By piping a command to grep, you can filter these output.
|
|
|
|
Example: ```history | grep mkvmerge```
|
|
|
|
This command will display all the history entries containing mkvmerge.
|
|
|
|
3. **Virtual Desktops** - Take advantage of virtual desktops (workspaces) to organize your tasks. Most desktop environments support virtual desktops, allowing you to group different activities on separate desktops.
|
|
|
|
4. **KDE Connect** - A versatile tool designed to integrate your Linux desktop with your mobile devices, particularly Android phones.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Matt suggests GSConnect
|
|
|
|
5. **Git** - Learn it. Live it. Love it.
