mvirts,

It’s your grandma, you gave her ubuntu and everything has been good for a while.

Broke a partition. Is there any way of saving it?

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,...

mvirts,

Seconded. This is one of the things testdisk is built for, searching for lost filesystems and adding partition table entries to recover them.

mvirts,

Lol I don’t know why people are hating this. It’s cool, looks more European. Do you have more for other states? There are some way crazier flags flying in the US.

mvirts,

Nixos for me! But my dark secret is that I also have an Ubuntu partition those things that I can’t get working.

mvirts,

Until Netflix split them up forever

mvirts,

Sounds like a good time to me!! Hey and look at all that wasted space you found 😹

mvirts,

I ❤️ cmake

Probably because I’ve never developed with ninja or meson 😹

mvirts,

Running libreoffice for windows on wine

mvirts,

Lol this heightmap is so exaggerated

AMD+Wayland+dual monitor = Screen flickering

So…I have an…interesting behavior I’ve never had before with an Nvidia or integrated intel chipsets…I have now my AMD card plugged both to a normal HDMI monitor, and then to another HDMI TV. Both work well. However, when I turn the TV off… The monitor will start flickering. About three flickers every minute or so....

mvirts,

If you disable the TV display first, then turn it off, does the flickering happen?

mvirts,

Thinking that the TV is periodically connecting and your desktop environment is trying to switch to dual monitors before quickly losing the TV connection.

mvirts,

Super smash. The intense gameplay draws me in away from whatever is keeping me from relaxing.

mvirts,

On the adafruit page it says:

These LEDs are not shift registers. In fact, if you look closely, there’s no input and output pin, only one data line. That’s because each LED in this strand is pre-addressed from 0 to 100. Whenever it receives the NeoPixel data, it picks out the n’th color data (matching to its pre-address) and displays that. You cannot change the pre-address, its fixed permanently - or at least, we have no idea how to re-address it.

mvirts,

Are you looking for info on how to set the led color or something else?

How exactly "secure" is a container with all capabilities dropped, distroless, with a custom rootfs directory, a static, single binary with chmod set at 100 and file ownership pointed to non-root u...

ser*, and said non-root user being “nonexistant” (i.e set via ENV)? Can such container -STILL- be exploited/breached through malicious means? Forgot to mention that its a DOCKER container @ title, but there you have it. Just curious....

mvirts,

There may be unknown container escape vulnerabilities like these container-security.site/…/container_breakout_vuln… that can work from an unprivileged container.

mvirts,

Why put off until tomorrow what you can do today?

Practice makes perfect.

mvirts,

Gnome 3 has an option to keep one display fixed when changing workspaces… Also most window managers allow you to keep certain windows on all workspaces, maybe that will help?

mvirts,

Can you provide the file on GitHub or something?

Can one recover from an accidental rm -rf of system directories by copying those files back in from a backup?

Well I’ve joined the “accidentally trashing your system with rm -rf” club! Luckily I didn’t delete my home directory with all the things I care about, but I did delete /boot and /usr, and maybe /var (long story, boils down to me trying to delete non-system directories named those but reflexively adding the slash in front...

mvirts,

Give it a try! System is broken anyway. Also fix your backup to include file metadata, maybe disk images?

Heck I would try using testdisk to undelete the files onto another filesystem then copy them back if the permissions look okay.
