0x4E4F, to linux in Noticed a strange occurrence where my monitor buttons will not react to presses when certain conditions are met

Well, it’s not a hardware problem in that case 😉. Good thing you fixed it 👍.

Steve Balmer wasn’t as keen on it…

0x4E4F, to asklemmy in Unix and Linux System Administration Handbook?

Hmm… didn’t know that… but that makes sense 👍… the overflows I mean… good tip, thanks 😉.

You should also probably try and see if the same thing happens in a VM. The flash drive might be failing and I don’t think Void does CRC checks of files when copying them… definitely not when funning them, like the installer for example.

EDIT: I remember the installer bringing me back to the partitioning setup, but that’s because I partition manually, not through the Void installer, so the installer thinks that that step is skipped. No worries though, just go to the end of the installer setup and continue with the provided settings. If an adequate target partition has been set, it will install Void.

libera te tutemet ex inferis

Imagine hearing that shit 😬…

0x4E4F, to lemmyshitpost in Be a better pirate.

Darn it, won’t get anything from pirate santa this year 😔.

New York as well I believe 🤔.

0x4E4F, to asklemmy in What hobbies help you minimize or avoid navigating commercialism?

I repair almost everything and just love to tinker with gadgets and tech in general… repurpose/reuse old things, make beter versions of them, etc.

Simple example, all of my old audio equipment now has Bluetooth, an MP3 player, an aux input, a USB port (for MP3 playback) and an SD card reader (also for MP3 playback)… oh and let’s not forget the FM tuner that comes bundled with those thingies 😂. Don’t use it, but still, it is a nice option to have at your disposal 😉.

0x4E4F, (edited ) to linux in Help me decide my first distro for Audio.

What, they don’t offer binaries 🤨?

Well, at least there is one thing that makes building on Void easier. xbps-src works with templates, so you could just write the template or write on GitHub for help from someone in the Void community. I’ve asked for help many times and people are usually very helpful ☺️. Once you have the template, updating the VST is a matter of just chaging a few things in it (version, hash, etc.) since things like UI dependencies or libraries don’t change that often in releases, those are major changes and usually come with a prior warning by the developer. Meaning, you could just make the template and just change the version numbers and hashes, recompile it and most of the time, that will be just that, bam, you’re up to date ☺️. Sure, there are major updates, but let’s face it, there are very rare. And, you can share the template with others on the official void xbps-src repo or your own repo, however you like 😉. Hell, you could even share the binaries so that other people don’t have to go through the trouble of compiling them manually 😉.

and I will not ask for the meaning of 20047 or the Englishy greenish color 😉

It’s NO in ASCII and I’m not a native English speaker… and this thing doesn’t have auto correct, underline or suggestions 😒 (Jerboa).

The correct way to share a community on Lemmy (so that apps recognize it as a Lemmy community) is with an exclamation mark, as in your last example. The search in Jerboa (as is with other apps) is broken, doesn’t work like it should. Use the web UI search on your instance, you’ll find the community.

I would argue that now, it’s as user friendly as Reddit is. But, alas, now is too late 😔. There was a wave of instances dissappearing over night (vlemmy, fmhy, etc.), mods abusing power and… well, that crowd just felt safer with commercial media. At least their data and shared images won’t drown into oblivion if an instance owner decided to just close shop 🤷.

0x4E4F, to asklemmy in Unix and Linux System Administration Handbook?

It didn’t use to be like that after the first wave, with comms such as sewing, there were some gardening subs as well… the only one that kinda took off was the woodworking sub, that’s it.

I opened a few subs myself, related to tech, but not really computer related, none of them took off, only a few posts at the beginning and that was basically it, no new posts whatsoever.

0x4E4F, to linux in Best practices in mounting NAS shares?

It has to have a mount point somewhere. Just double click the desktop entry, that will mount it wherever you told it to and then you can copy to that location, easy peasy 😉.

0x4E4F, (edited ) to linux in Best practices in mounting NAS shares?

Well, for one, it’s network attached storage. If it’s not present in the network for one reason or another, guess what, your OS doesn’t boot… or it errors during boot, depending on how the kernel was compiled and what switches your bootloader sends to the kernel during boot. Second, this is an easy way for malware to spread, especially if it’s set to run after user logon.

Damn, you’re more persitent than me hagling 😂.
