Hey, so I believe in a higher power but I’m not on board with any particular religion. Anyone else think it’s cool to just fly solo as a good human, no religion attached?
While I was switching distros, I accidentally broke a partition. I’m almost certain that all the data is there, but it doesn’t have a filesystem (I used ext4). Is there anything I can do to fix it, similar to changing the file extension without changing the contents. PS: It’s a data partition. I was trying to resize it,...
I hate that I always compare Lemmy to Reddit, but Reddit used to have (not sure if they still do) guidelines called “Reddiquette” that included guidelines about upvoting and downvoting. I don’t remember the specifics (and sending too much of my browser traffic to Reddit makes me feel dirty) but one of the guidelines was...

When you need to upload a photo to a photo hosting site through a browser, the system file manager opens. When choosing a photo for editing, this also happens through the file manager built into Android. Is there a way to force applications to open my preferred file manager instead of the system one?
Imagine the whole thing like a graphics card that is in a different PC. Your app wants to draw it’s content on the remote screen. Only it’s own content inside it’s own window. This is not screen sharing. Your app cannot touch any other apps.
X11 is the connection between your app and the remote graphics card. It may be the local card as well, it is the same.
Technically, a wm is not needed. The app and X11 would work anyway.
Shouldn’t window managers abstract all that for the software
The wm does not interrupt or change any communication between the app and the screen. It amends it with decoration and control buttons etc. for example it draws the window borders around the app’s own window area.

Your duty to come to work is part of your work contract. But not the question where you come from, or where you go after work. That’s your decision and your private time.
If it is different, for example if they order you where to live, then that must be compensated.
My native language is using gender nearly everywhere. English is relatively neutral, and it appears as poor in comparison. More neutralisation would make English even more cold and dead.
Still new to linux hope its ok to ask here. I decided to replace one of my backup drives for the first time in 5ish years with a new 2.5" HDD meant for internal use but in an enclosure (the enclosure works fine). I formatted it in ntfs via gparted and everything went as expected, I even created a large veracrypt container file....
In general, linuxes autodetect all hardware, but do not automount all filesystems. This is intended. It is a matter of configuration, and so the different distros have different tastes regarding this topic.
A symptom of linux past traumas

People of Lemmy that take more than 5 seconds to start your car and drive, what are you doing?
As the title says…what are you all doing?
What are your thoughts on the concept of having faith in a Higher Power but choosing to distance oneself from established religious doctrines?

If another species on Earth began to develop civilization, how would you like to see them approached?
Would you prefer a hands-off, leave them to their own devices kind of approach, a keep at arms reach gently advise, or something else altogether?
