Whatbis your opinion on Linux that will make your comment look like this (taken from another sub)
You by no means have to use the snap. I use a shellscript: https://github.com/charmparticle/ffupdate

Snap Firefox vs Official Firefox from their site
I prefer to just use ffupdate and tbupdate. Firefox releases binary compatible browsers for linux, why not take advantage of it?

What tools / utilities have you written that you use regularly?
ffupdate is a script which will update firefox, either vanilla, beta, nightly, or devedition. I made this because debian does not provide the latest firefox, and downloading and installing firefox by hand, while better than compiling from source, is tedious. This script automates the whole process of installing and updating firefox, and it can also install and update thunderbird. I have since learned that lots of other people wrote scripts to accomplish the same thing, so my scripts get lost in the shuffle in github.

In 1982, a one-bit hack let me dodge a summer of filling in potholes
Tried his "hastyhex" binary to hex filter which claims to be faster than alternatives. In tests I ran, it was much faster than hexdump, and even faster than xxd, but was not faster than lesser known public domain code, which was about 2x faster.
