I made a mistake **RESOLVED**

last year when I went back to Arch from Manjaro, I made a critical error. I’m not sure if I was just tired when partitioning things off or what. but I made my root only 20GB instead of the 50 that I had intended. I know in a lot use cases that’ll be fine, but in mine, not so much. with steam compat taking up 1-2gb and...

Discover5164,

what file system are you using?

Discover5164,

i’ve used kde with bismuth for a long time. now it’s dying… polonium is it’s successor but still a long way ahead.

i have high hopes for cosmic

Discover5164,

i’m also using termius to connect from mobile, i also have a couple of scripts

Discover5164,

how does this compare with silverbullet?

can i link pages? do queries?

Discover5164,

16k liked songs and counting

Discover5164,

until a few years ago the limit was 10k

entire system backups onto the server - how?

Hey there, I have a (very) small Ubuntu server and I was dabbling on the idea to do system backups (entire system, meaning, if the disk of the said pc fries, I can get another one, put the info from the backup on the new disk, works immediately afterwards). I have a couple of Linux mint machines and a windows one. I searched a...

Discover5164,

you could use btrfs snapshots of the volumes you want to preserve. then send the snapshot to a remote location.

if the ssd fries you just need to download the snapshots and restore their layout.

i have a script for it and i use it on my server: github.com/simone-viozzi/btrfs2cloud-backup

Discover5164,

i use bismuth / polonium on KDE. both are very bare bone, but it’s nice to have a full plasma desktop + tiling.

let me know if you happen to know a better combination

Discover5164,

i’m stuck with windows, but i moved everything inside WSL… so at least vscode it’s on Linux.

i’m a heavy multitasker used to tiling WMs, multiple desktops on windows is torture.

Discover5164,

i have been running the new owncloud (ocis) and, with some quirks and very basic functionality, it’s been running for 2+ years and survived multiple updates without major complications

Discover5164,

i have no autopause on seed ratio. if you download lilo & stitch it probably was from me, it has 500+ ratio.

but i limit upload speed (10mbps) otherwise my isp will complain… still doing ~500gb daily upload

Do you mount an embedded Linux file system to the workstation and use your host scripts or do you SSH/SCP and deal with the limited shell commands?

I’m playing with a couple of routers and comparing proprietary to open source on the same hardware. I miss my .bashrc functions and aliases… and compgen, tree, manpages, detailed help, etc; the little things that get annoying when they are missing....

Discover5164,

i open vscode on the server through the ssh tunnel

Is anyone here using their hardware TPM chips for credentials?

I’m curious about the possible uses of the hardware Trusted Protection Module for automatic login or transfer encryption. I’m not really looking to solve anything or pry. I’m just curious about the use cases as I’m exploring network attached storage and to a lesser extent self hosting. I see a lot of places where public...

Discover5164,

i use it to auto unlock luks. if someone messed with the hardware/ bios, it will ask for the password next boot.

Discover5164,

you need no preserve root otherwise it will fail

Discover5164,

i dislike horizontal tabs, so i go with sidebery / tree-style-tabs. also use a lot of pinned tabs and they sit on top of the list of tabs. this way i can have ~10 pinned tabs and still remember what all of these are.

Discover5164,

you totally can, via userChrome.css

Discover5164,

i have a git bare repository in my home and use dotbare to manage it.

here you can find all of them github.com/simone-viozzi/my-dot-files

Discover5164, (edited )

i would totally buy one for my desktop

Discover5164,

use pamac and always read the post on the forum.

you should have the thing in the panel that links you to the post of each update. (forum.manjaro.org/t/…/69066)

i’m on manjaro from ~4 years ago. it never broke… still a couple of times i had to restore a timeshift backup.

i will switch to nixos once i learned enough of it.

Discover5164,

i have the same requirements as you. i bought framework 13.

i’m still in the confuguration phase, for now it has a decent battery run of ~6/8h of installing stuff. i’m configuring nixos.

Discover5164,

yes but default config, i still need to look into it

Discover5164,

i5-1340p

there is a kernel parameter to add to make standby better: mem_sleep_default=deep.

if you are on nixos you can import the framework hardware module from “nixos-hardware”. it also includes other fixes

Discover5164,

i just got a ThinkPad for work, it’s spectacular. but if you need to replace something…

the framework is solid, and allows to replace anything. i think the tradeoff is very fair.

Discover5164,

it’s not automatic since it will eat resources while it’s running. but it’s a feature of btrfs.

Discover5164,

you’re right, this is a solution efficiently using the btrfs features. thank you
