Porém a data comemora desde 2006 o direito de ser um geek ou nerd, sendo escolhida em razão da premiere do primeiro longa metragem de Star Wars, em 25 de maio de 1977. Na mesma data se comemora também o dia da Toalha, para os fans do Guia do Mochileiro das Galáxias.

(via)
youtube-dl is a small command-line program to download videos from YouTube.com. Install youtube-dl in Ubuntu sudo aptitude install youtube-dl This will complete the installation. Using youtube-dl Usage instructions are easy. Use youtube-dl followed by a video URL or identifier. youtube-dl Example youtube-dl “http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foobar” The video will be saved to the file foobar.flv in that example. As YouTube.com videos are in Flash Video format, their extension should be flv.Check this simple guide to convert .flv files to .mpg More usage tips You can change the file name of the video using the -o option, like in youtube-dl -o vid.flv “http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foobar”. Some videos require an account to be downloaded, mostly because they’re flagged as mature content. You can pass the program a username and password for a YouTube.com account with the -u and -p options, like youtube-dl -u myusername -p mypassword “http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foobar”. The account data can also be read from the user .netrc file by indicating the -n or --netrc option. The machine name is youtube in that case. The simulate mode (activated with -s or --simulate) can be used to just get the real video URL and use it with a download manager if you prefer that option. The quiet mode (activated with -q or --quiet) can be used to supress all output messages. This allows, in systems featuring /dev/stdout and other similar special files, outputting the video data to standard output in order to pipe it to another program without interferences. The program can be told to simply print the final video URL to standard output using the -g or --get-url option.
