@OPenis
Firefox is the White man's browser. Thanks.

"Obsolete"? Is every CLI or text-based tool "obsolete", to you‽

Just because it doesn't support Flash, JavaScript, most CSS3 features, or graphics, doesn't mean it's obsolete. Thanks.

I do, in fact, have a very good computer and work in IT. I stand by my claim that Lynx offers the superior browsing experience. Are you, peradventure, jealous of Lynx's advanced browsing features?

If you are capable, CLI-based tools are far more powerful and extensible than anything else. Thanks.

So far, I have put up with your shit because it is funny. I can appreciate a good troll, a good joke, a joke or two about Lynx's lack of modernity. But you are very close to crossing the line. I want you to know that once I "go tteh" on someone, it is over. I have ruined lives, destroyed careers, bankrupted people, even provoked one suicide. You may think I am "bawwing" and "mad in space", but you have no idea, man. You and I are both professional trolls. We know how far to go without crossing a line, and that is fine. But I am warning you, if you fuck with me, or continue this shtick, I am going to go tteh on your ass, and you do not want that. I know all about your little secret, and your childhood, and I will not hesitate to destroy your fucking life. So back off, and let's keep it at a fun level. Thanks.

Okay:

from lxml import html
import requests
page = requests.get('https://www.stagecoachbus.com/plan-a-journey/journey-results?5BFullText%5D=[Dox-Harassment]&a%5BLocalityData%5D&b%5Bid%5D=Bristol%2C+Bristol+City+Of&c=true&d=2018-10-26T18%3A45%3A00.000Z&e=E[Dox-Harassment]')
tree = html.fromstring(page.content)
busdeparture = tree.xpath('//*[@id="skipnav"]/div/div/div/div[6]/div/div/div[2]/h2')
print "Your bus departs at:", busdeparture
print(busdeparture)

> python busdeparture.py
> Your bus departs at: 22:45

Could do the same with an awk one-liner, or could use PhantomJS or Selenium or Headless Chrome or whatever else. The arrival and departure station could be vars, so you could do e.g. busdepature.js London Schiphol. Thanks.

@previous (Big Daddy Derek™ !Uvm54ORbmo)
Can you? Once you've written the script, literally all you need to do is type python busdeparture.py $destination $origin. In a browser you'd have to load Google, find Stagecoach's website, type in the two stations, enter the time of arrival/departure (or leave as is), and then wait for the page to load. That Python script, however, returns a result in about 0.5 seconds.

QED. Thanks.

I don't think Google is very reliable for my local buses, so I'm left to rely on the operator itself (Stagecoach). Like I said, once written that script takes ~0.5 seconds to run and display the output!

Lynx, truly, is the browser of the future.

No. But we were discussing browsers, so I was comparing the CLI (and tools it offers) to a web browser like Chrome. Thanks.

I call it the Squeegee Navigator, it's a forked version of the old Netscape browser that I upgraded and customized to function as well as chrome. It's fucking terrible.

Non-peasants. ?

A phone or tablet is nothing compared to a decent gaming PC, even if it isn't particularly high-end. Plus, I work in IT and couldn't function with just a laptop.
