bartolomeo, (edited ) in File transfer to USB drive fails after 4.3 gb
@bartolomeo@suppo.fi avatar

Edit: nevermind, apparently I was wrong.

xkforce,

Theyd need a ntfs driver to do anything. If you try to do what you are suggesting without one, bad things happen. Unless that part of the partition isn’t ntfs formatted.

@bartolomeo@suppo.fi avatar

For real? Even just cp?

xkforce,

We have a specific driver for reading and writing to ntfs for a reason.

bartolomeo,
@bartolomeo@suppo.fi avatar

What’s the reason? Honest question.

xkforce,

Why do you think anyone bothered to write a ntfs driver if you could read and write to ntfs without it? Why do you think windows cant read ext4? What do you think file systems are?

I know where you’re coming from.

The best way to be happy is to be kind. Seriously, just try it and come to your own conclusion. It works way better than trying to extract satisfaction from life, which actually just creates more dissatisfaction.

bluestarshield,

Sorry if it’s a noob question, but isn’t a live session something you do with a USB stick without installing? The file is currently on the Mint install I used to torrent it, along with my other daily-driver things.

NeoNachtwaechter,

isn’t a live session something you do with a USB stick

Or, something you do with a fit Latvian girl…

bluestarshield,

Man, those guys who down voted you have no sense of humor. You made a sex joke in response to my video game piracy joke!

ruckblack, in Which terminal emulator do you use?

I like yakuake, I’m spoiled by the drop-down terminal at this point

UNWILLING_PARTICIPANT,

I used to love yakuake. Really convenient

ruckblack,

It’s become really sleek looking too. When I first started using it the UI looked kinda clunky.

    Thank you!! I will try that!!

    @Atemu@lemmy.ml avatar

    It can only do that with the unfree unrar plugin. Do not expect your distro to ship it by default due to that issue.

    Damn rat files…

    I just opened a nix-shell with unrar in it on aarch64-linux and am able to execute it, so yes, it can be made to work.

    Seconded, Alacritty has been great to me

    No love for Terminator?

    I spend my day working on it. Multiple tabs, multiple vertical and horizontal panes, good keyboard shortcuts, profiles, themes… What more do you want?

    breakcore,

    Terminator was my super goto terminal emulator the last decade or so. Love it.

    Recently switched to foot, because of GPU acceleration, touch screen support and wayland amongst others.

    But I miss splitting windows and being able to send keystrokes to multiple windows/groups.

    Try Terminator if you haven’t - it’s really nice!

    Ashiette, in Which terminal emulator do you use?

    Konsole and Yakuake… It’s sufficient

    atzanteol,

    I’ve really grown to like yakuake. I always have a sorta “main terminal” where I have a tmux session going and now I do that in yakuake so it’s available on all desktops and easily put “out of the way” when I don’t need it.

    BigTrout75, in Why more PC gaming handhelds should ditch Windows for SteamOS

    Are there more than just Steam Deck?

    TwinTusks,
    @TwinTusks@bitforged.space avatar

    There are many handheld PC gaming devices, however, none can match Steam Decks’ price with its performance.

    captain_aggravated,
    @captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works avatar

    A bunch of them saw Valve say “We’re coming out with a gaming PC that vaguely resembles an adult Nintendo Switch” and went “uh yeah us too!” I know Asus and Lenovo have one.

    Brocon,

    I think he meant more consoles with SteamOS.

    The next Ayaneo handheld is going to use SteamOS.

    That’s literally the second paragraph in the linked article. Do people not actually read the articles on here?

    jacktherippah,

    Yeah, they’re former Redditors. They don’t read past the titles.

    XTornado, (edited )

    To clarify, not an official Valve version, just in case somebody is wondering.

    It’s HoloISO or a modified version based on it, which is a Linux distro that bring most of SteamOS to other devices (except ones with Nvidia).

    null,

    Is that reported somewhere? As in, we know for sure they didn’t get it from Valve?

    XTornado, (edited )

    Yeah AYANEO themselves confirmed it. It mentions HoloISO, although I think originally it didn’t and said SteamOS and some posts/comments etc did say otherwise due to that.

    www.ayaneo.com/article/806

    null,

    Thanks for the link!

    It’s kinda more interesting that they are leveraging HoloISO rather than it just being a straight-up partnership with Valve.

    Dotdev, (edited ) in Which terminal emulator do you use?
    @Dotdev@programming.dev avatar

    Same here whatever the DE has I would use.

    Though most common answers from others would be alacritty or kitty which I see the use but feels advanced in configuration.

    satanicllamaplaza,

    I use alacritty and I’m very very new to Linux. I actually found that working on the config files for alacritty helped me a ton with learning how to approach config files in general. So advanced maybe but simple enough to teach new users a ton of useful things.

    @makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml avatar

    I’m partial to a bit of Tilix personality.

    BrianTheeBiscuiteer,

    Sounds like there’s a ton of options but this is the first one I’ve found that supports copy-on-highlight and that’s a must for me.

    AbidanYre, in Why is Fedora called Fedora?

    The RedHat installer used to have conflicting versions of the origin of the name RedHat.

    troyunrau, in Which terminal emulator do you use?
    @troyunrau@lemmy.ca avatar

    Konsole and xterm, although I haven’t had to use xterm in a while. Actually, circa 1997 I used kterm, the predecessor to konsole. ;)

    Straight up Linux ttys are also quite common for me. Most old school distros still let you escape to the terminal, with CTRL-ALT-F1 or similar. I haven’t distro hopped in a long time, so I don’t know if other distros still do this.

    Shdwdrgn,

    I’ve always preferred Konsole because it handles several tabs pretty well and I keep a bunch open to my servers. The only issue I have with it is that it has a habit of detaching tabs if I click on one while my computer is running something heavy in the background.

    mycoffeeisready, in Which terminal emulator do you use?

    Alacritty (with tmux if I need a multiplexor)

    BitSound,

    You might also be interested in checking out Zellij, it’s like tmux with nice defaults

    bionicjoey, in Mosh: Like ssh, but better (e.g. local echo and persistent sessions across sleeps / network changes)

    Mosh is great but it annoyingly doesn’t preserve scrollback. So it needs to be combined with something like Tmux if you want to be able to see more than one page of terminal.

    zewm, in Mosh: Like ssh, but better (e.g. local echo and persistent sessions across sleeps / network changes)

    How does this differ from something like tmux?

    Jordan_U, (edited )

    Tmux allows you to reconnect to a session, and helps guarantee that you will always be able to get back to your long running processes. For important long running processes, I still use tmux with mosh, because if the mosh client is killed (or you’re trying to “re-attach” from a different device, mosh won’t let you “re-attach” to that “session”.

    Mosh allows you to roam, and suspend your machine, and whenever you resume it again, whatever network you’re now on, the connection is basically instantly re-established. You can often roam from WiFi to cellular data without even noticing. (Great when working from a phone, or just a laptop)

    In my opinion, they are mostly orthogonal (and complementary).

    Here’s the list of features from the home page. I’ve added my own comments after ‘’. If there is no ‘’, then the feature doesn’t exist for tmux (because it’s outside the scope of tmux):

    Change IP. Stay connected. Mosh automatically roams as you move between Internet connections. Use Wi-Fi on the train, Ethernet in a hotel, and LTE on a beach: you’ll stay logged in. Most network programs lose their connections after roaming, including SSH and Web apps like Gmail. Mosh is different.

    Makes for sweet dreams. With Mosh, you can put your laptop to sleep and wake it up later, keeping your connection intact. If your Internet connection drops, Mosh will warn you — but the connection resumes when network service comes back.

    Get rid of network lag. SSH waits for the server’s reply before showing you your own typing. That can make for a lousy user interface. Mosh is different: it gives an instant response to typing, deleting, and line editing. It does this adaptively and works even in full-screen programs like emacs and vim. On a bad connection, outstanding predictions are underlined so you won’t be misled.

    No privileged code. No daemon. * Same for tmux, but that’s less interesting since tmux is not a network service You don’t need to be the superuser to install or run Mosh. The client and server are executables run by an ordinary user and last only for the life of the connection.

    Same login method. * Not really relevant to tmux, which doesn’t handle auth Mosh doesn’t listen on network ports or authenticate users. The mosh client logs in to the server via SSH, and users present the same credentials (e.g., password, public key) as before. Then Mosh runs the mosh-server remotely and connects to it over UDP.

    Runs inside your terminal, but better. * This is common to both Mosh is a command-line program, like ssh. You can use it inside xterm, gnome-terminal, urxvt, Terminal.app, iTerm, emacs, screen, or tmux. But mosh was designed from scratch and supports just one character set: UTF-8. It fixes Unicode bugs in other terminals and in SSH.

    Control-C works great. * Tmux can help with this too Unlike SSH, mosh’s UDP-based protocol handles packet loss gracefully, and sets the frame rate based on network conditions. Mosh doesn’t fill up network buffers, so Control-C always works to halt a runaway process.

    bionicjoey,

    Mosh is to SSH as Tmux is to Bash

    Hellmo_Luciferrari,

    I’m no expert, but this isn’t a terminal multiplexer.

    Red Hat was the corporate distro, Fedora is the casual version of it
