Honestly, the latter feels more like masochism to me. I have to move my hands off the keyboard to do it, and it takes three times as long.

- slowpoke 15y agoPretty much this. Call me an elitist or a backwards conservative[1] for this, but there is absolutely no way a GUI will ever be faster and more productive than using the CLI for pretty much all tasks I can currently think off (that don't inherently require a GUI, like Graphic Design etc). Mind you though, I'm not saying that a GUI is unproductive or bad in any way. Just that it's almost always less efficient if you know what you're doing. [1] Just for the record, I'm on GNU/Linux since about a year now. At first I was like "wtf CLI" myself. Then I slowly learned to appreciate it. So I'm not someone who's been using CLI since the dawn of Unix and is waving his cane at the kids on his lawn.
