I want this. Please tell me which unreadable code I need to paste where and grant it sudo rights to get this.
Just install pingu. You must learn the basics when you install an operating system…
I’d do…
yay pingu
paru pingu
pamac install pingu
They’d all work.
Then I just did
pingu lemmy.world
so what does it do besides printing a penguin next to the ping stats?
This is a little bit like saying ‘What does a pen do, apart from write?’
It also looks very cool - cool enough that even people don’t find things cute will actually change their normal
ping
to this JUST because it’s cute.However, if you like pings you could also go with gping for a graph… but they’re all just bloat - better stick with
fping
, right? ;)In this analogy a pen would be regular ping. A helpful little utility.
Pingu would be a pen that looks fancy. Still does the same, just looks fancy.Fancy, yes. Not the same. For example:
ping -a -c5 lemmy.world
gives you an audible ‘drip’ sound for the ping.But people LOVE Pingu.
