pfetch: Display a different username and hostname.
$ USER="${user}" HOSTNAME="${hostname}" pfetch
try on your machine

This command assigns the values of the shell variables "user" and "hostname" to the variables "USER" and "HOSTNAME" respectively.

The syntax VARIABLE_NAME="Value" is used to assign a value to a variable in shell scripting. In this case, the variables "USER" and "HOSTNAME" are being assigned the values of the variables "user" and "hostname".

After the variables are assigned, the command "pfetch" is executed. "pfetch" is likely a command or script that displays system information, such as the current operating system, CPU, memory, and other details. By setting the variables "USER" and "HOSTNAME" to specific values, the displayed system information may incorporate these values.

Note that the specific behavior of the "pfetch" command may vary depending on the system and any customizations made to it.
