Random Days - Bash One-Liner

[Farley Flud]

Hey dumb fucks. You want random days? I'll give you random
days with one fucking line of bash code:

# /bin/bash
shuf -n200 -i$(date -d '1970-01-01' '+%s')-$(date -d '2024-02-16' '+%s') \
| xargs -I{} date -d '@{}' '+%d/%m/%Y'

Output shown below.

Note: For dates before the Unix epoch it needs some tweaking, but
I'll allow you dumb shits to figure it out.

Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

GNU/Linux: designed for supermen.

Microslop Winblows: designed for crippled pussies.

Promised output:

1 line of intuitive Microsoft PowerShell makes mincemeat of your clumsy,
unreadable GuhNoo bash:

$b=[DateTime]"1960-01-01"; $e=[DateTime]"2024-12-31"; $cnt=1; $dates =
1000; while($cnt-le $dates) {$rdate = [DateTime](Get-Random -Minimum
$b.Ticks -Maximum $e.Ticks); $rdate.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd"); $cnt++;}

No tweaking necessary to handle an "epoch", of course.



To output the randoms in sorted order:

$b=[DateTime]"1960-01-01";$e=[DateTime]"2024-12-31";$cnt=1;$dates=1000;$arr=@();while($cnt-le
$dates) {$rdate = [DateTime](Get-Random -Minimum $b.Ticks -Maximum
$e.Ticks);$arr+=$rdate.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");$cnt++;} $arr|Sort-Object;


bash severely pwned by PowerShell

Assuming you can get to PowerShell after the last 'fix'.

DFS doesn't need no stinking StartMenu.
It's been years since I last saw it.

Also, My desktop is pure black; I use folders instead; to wit:

I really cannot understand what makes you tick, Jeff.

I couldn't get used to the PowerShell verb-qualifier notation. And that's

I'm sure it's great, but I've always gotten by quite handily with
BAT and Bash scripts.

Interesting. That has spilled over onto 3 lines for me.

I use it occasionally, mostly to access Settings or Control Panel.

Yours is the first and only homegrown Windows desktop I've ever seen.

It's not a skin or a theme. It's a replacement for Windows Explorer, right?

It's a (HighContrast) Theme: Jeff-Relf.Me/Black.Theme.TXT

; Reboot twice ? From: Jeff-Relf.Me/Win10.REG.TXT"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes]
"Segoe UI"="Comic Sans MS"
"Segoe UI Bold"="Comic Sans MS Bold"
"Segoe UI Bold Italic"="Comic Sans MS Bold Italic"

My 4k monitor is 140 dpi, so most apps
( like Google Chrome, FireFox & Microsoft File Explorer ) are scaled 225 %;
my apps ignore that setting via "SetProcessDPIAware()".

My browsers still have access to each and every pixel;
i.e. images are properly zoomed, not pixelated.

The fact that your “one-liner” was longer than the original “one-liner”
suggests to me that you need a better ruler. Or an eye test.
