Until you don't need to pull up the command line for anything slightly administrative

My GF switched to Linux Mint Cinnamon three months ago, after using Windows since W98. At no point did she need a CLI, and I only had to ask her a few times over those past three months to open a shell and type some command or other, to check something. CLI because it would give me the info in the format I wanted instead of the "find the right tool, then find the option(s) I needed" because I'm accustomed to KDE as the desktop; command line tools are as good as identical between distros.

So redirect your argument into /dev/null
