    Oh fuck. I’ll use this from now on. Except for if I won’t use it next week. Then I’ll forget about it because my memory is a damn sieve.

      Just take the next step and make a text file you dump all these commands into and then forget about in a week. When you randomly stumble across it years from now you’ll be able to say “wow, I could have used this 10 months ago if I remembered it existed!”

          I usually print these out and put them in a safe deposit box at a bank so I never lose them

        I keep a persistent “sticky note” (in KDE) drop down on my top bar where I copy/paste important commands, scripts, etc.

        I actually remember to use it sometimes.

      Use a systemd timer to send yourself a reminder. Discoverd them recently myself and honestly liking them more than cron.
