A while ago I made a tiny function in my ~/.zshrc to download a video from the link in my clipboard. I use this nearly every day to share videos with people without forcing them to watch it on whatever site I found it. What’s a script/alias that you use a lot?

# Download clipboard to tmp with yt-dlp
tmpv() {
  cd /tmp/ && yt-dlp "$(wl-paste)"
}

    Technically not an alias, because I just use nushell’s history + autocompletion everytime I use it, but one could alias it. I think I might even write a custom command for it, with path argument, some day. Anyway, here it goes:

    rsync -aPh -e "ssh -p 2222" test@172.16.0.86:/storage/emulated/0/PicturesArchive/ ~/PicturesArchive/

    I run an ssh daemon on my phone, and use this snippet to back up my photos.
