What are your ‘defaults’ for your desktop Linux installations, especially when they deviate from your distros defaults? What are your reasons for this deviations?...
I think that installation was originally 18.04 and I installed it when it was released. A while ago anyways and I’ve been upgrading it as new versions roll out and with the latest upgrade and snapd software it has become more and more annoying to keep the operating system happy and out of my way so I can do whatever I need to...
You won’t. Arch has very little glue that holds it together and the components are quite robust. Buntus of this world, on the other hand, have plenty of glue to enforce their way. And it might be good for first timers, but definitely gets in a way as you start learning the system. My last annoyance like this was disabling gdm - it just kept coming back. Some script somewhere was making sure thr service was running no matter what.
Ah, I had misunderstood your /boot situation previously. There’s an easy way to fix it by backing up current content of boot, unmounting it, creating some dir somewhere where there’s space (/tempboot was my choice last time), bind mounting it to /boot and going through the apt process. Then unmount the bind, mount the real boot, delete everything except currently booted kernel stuff, copy all the things from /tempboot update the initrd and grub. Et voila!
I have noticed that I interact a lot more in Lemmy than I ever did in any social media. Let it be Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter… I am used to be the lurker, but here for some reason things are different. Wonder if more people feel like I do.
I think I got a double push - I’ve reached a point in my life where I finally have something to say as well as Lemmy not drowning out my posts/comments.
Also hosting a publicly open server drags me in even more; I love that stuff.
I actually think they’re new school enough where Linux to them means a lot less than it does to us. And so they don’t feel at home on a Linux machine and, unfortunately, don’t care to learn.
I could totally be wrong, though. Maybe I’m the moron.
Looking at the two big news publishers in my country. One isn’t reporting about the current bombings at all, while the other one is phrasing their words mostly anti-Palestinian....
Hey, I’ve replied to your post. I see it has a few upvotes, which implies that federation is working.
In regards to another member - he might have trouble initially if nobody from their instance had subscribed to the community, yet. Once subscribed, everything should be fine.
Someone had created !typewriters and I could swear it had some content, but engagement was low at the time and I think the creator abandoned it. I can move ownership to you if you’re up to it.
After 16 years of living in my city, they will finally have city-wide fiber internet. I’m pretty stoked because the fastest internet I could possibly have is a WISP at 50gbps down and 10gbps up. Now I will finally have gigabit but it’s through the city, and I’m wondering if they will be more strict on illegal content...

Does anybody use Thunderbird on Android a.k.a. K-9
Just recently started using thunderbird to see how it would help managing múltiple Gmail accounts. Has anybody used the app version? Is it good? Bad?
Is there such a thing as too much privacy?
This isn’t meant to start a war in the comments....
Do you interact more in Lemmy?

Tech workers - what did your IT Security team do that made your life hell and had no practical benefit?

Hi, would you know an efficient and privacy friendly Ubuntu antivirus ?

How does one create a sub-group at Lemmy?
My favorite group pre collapse was r/typewriters — how does one go about creating a sub here and having word of it get out?
What are your thoughts on fiber through the city?
After 16 years of living in my city, they will finally have city-wide fiber internet. I’m pretty stoked because the fastest internet I could possibly have is a WISP at 50gbps down and 10gbps up.

If you could satisfy your daily nutrition and caloric needs with one food in particular, what food would you happily eat for the rest of your life?
Think of it as “people kibble”. Without shame, I would eat Cheetos as my solitary food item for the rest of my life (CRUNCHY, not puffs)
