• Routing table confusion, or did Kirkland move to Kansas?

  That's a community cli client https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli rather than the official cli client https://www.speedtest.net/apps/cli. Source: 11 months ago

• running script via cron does not provide full output

  If you read the docs for Speedtest-CLI you will see that the program timeouts after 10 seconds. Try using this for default timeout of 1 minute and also redirect errors to the same file. Speedtest-cli --timeout 60 >> /bin/speedtestoutput.txt 2>&1. Source: over 1 year ago

• Press 'Enter' to Run a SpeedTest (Update v2.5.4) - Self-Hosted SpeedTest - Docker

  Already exists https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/, mature, stable, packaged in major distributions. Source: over 1 year ago

• Can I accept license agreements for my end-users?

  I have an open-source software, which can show some stats about your PC/Server. One of those stats is internet speed. I have been using speedtest-cli for now, since it is open-source and runs without having to accept any license agreements. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Fast Network Speed, Slow Internet speeds

  Ah that makes sense then. You could try out https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli instead on Ubuntu and see what that comes up with but if it’s still detecting a random, far-away server then you’ll have to use the help options to narrow down your test to your country. Or better yet, try and use the same one that’s fine on your PC 🙏. Source: about 2 years ago

• Essential Tools & Technologies for New Developers

  For Linux users, your default terminal is just fine. The only thing I would install is oh-my-zsh with the autocomplete plugin. For my Mac friends out there, iTerm is an amazing software that works well with oh-my-zsh as well. - Source: dev.to / about 16 hours ago

• Tools that keep me productive

  Although I have iTerm installed, a great terminal for macOS, I honestly live in the VS Code terminal 99.999% of the time. - Source: dev.to / 4 days ago

• Terminal commands I use as a frontend developer

  I am using iTerm2 on my macOS. Other available options are Hyper and VS Code’s inbuilt terminal, which I sometimes use for quick tests. You can open a terminal in VS Code by using the keyboard shortcut CMD + J or CTRL + J on Windows, or View → Terminal. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• I Just Wanted Emacs to Look Nice – Using 24-Bit Color in Terminals

  IME, this is like the golden age of terminal apps in general and macOS-compatible ones in particular. There are several really good terminals for macOS: [iTerm2 app](https://iterm2.com/) [Kitty terminal](https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/) [WezTerm terminal](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/index.html) [Alacritty](https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty) -... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
