CLI Shell Console SublimeText Alternative

I love SublimeText! With features like Ctrl-D, Multi-Cursor, and RegEx-Search&Replace, it’s just the best editor ever. Add tools from PackageControl.io and it’s unbeatable. Yes, Atom is probably on-par (plus it’s free), but I’ve already acclimated to ST and that’s just how it is.

But sometimes i just prefer/need to edit in the shell. Almost always, i use nano; However, when you suddenly need something more powerful, it’s back to SublimeText.

I had known about slap-edit, but it’s just too slow, especially through ssh tunnels.

Enter Suplemon! Wow, it’s a great CLI editor to supplement your workflow. If you already have python and pip, then just sudo pip3 install suplemon - -That’s it. Launch suplemon and check it out.

Yes, I know everyone will say “Vim”, but i don’t have time be that good.

LastPass Firefox Extension Repeatedly Asking for Two-Factor Authentication at Every Login

With the recent Firefox 57 release, I had experienced an annoying requirement with my LastPass add-on that required me to two-factor authenticate (2FA) each and every time I restarted Firefox.

At first, I saved a little effort by installing the Two-Factor Authenticator add-on so as to not require pulling my phone out constantly.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/two-factor-authenticator/

But really, i wanted this solved.

LastPass.com support suggested I purge my ~/.lastpass folder. I did so, but without resolve.

Other sources recommended purging two lastpass folders contained in the user profile:
~/.mozilla/firefox/YOURPROFILE/storage/permanent/indexeddb+++support-at-lastpass-dot-com/ , and
~/.mozilla/firefox/YOURPROFILE/jetpack/support@lastpass.com/
So i did; also without resolve.

More sources reported what I already suspected: The cookies that lastpass uses should not be deleted. So I made sure to whitelist lastpass.com and *.lastpass.com in my cookies cleaner.   In addition to Privacy > History > Keep Until they Expire.

This didn’t work immediately, so I dug into my FireFox preferences and found that un-checking “Offline WebSite Data” seemed to resolve my issue.  I had already unchecked "Cookies" and used "Cookies Auto delete" add-on to control cookies.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-autodelete/?src=userprofile

So in hindsight, I believe the combination of saving the lastpass.com cookies and Edit(Tools) > Preferences(Options) > Privacy > History > Settings >
 [UN-CHECK] Offline Website data
 [UN-CHECK] Cookies
is the final solution.

Note: Upon removal/re-installation or auto-update of the add-on, you will likely be required to 2FA again. But otherwise, the 30-day 2FA memory should be retained with the above solution.

Good Luck!
