Color me shocked that a meta product is sacrificing trust so the line continues to go up.

Ubuntu LTS. Currently on 22.04.
I’ve been generally happy with Ubuntu. I don’t really care for snaps, but on my headless server that’s not really an issue. I suppose I could have taken the time to uninstall snapd from the server, but I haven’t cared enough to do so.
I ran it on my desktop for quite awhile as well, but there the snap issue was much more present. I hate Firefox as a snap, and while I’m aware of the new Firefox ppa, I decided to switch to fedora since I’ve never used it and wanted to broaden my experience a bit more.
And yes, I’m aware of Red Hat/IBM’s shitty corporate bullshit too. Maybe one of these days I’ll use Arch btw.
Awesome! Glad I could help.
At the terminal, go to the directory that contains the mount point for the disk (so if the mount point is /mnt/disk
go to /mnt
.
Run ls -l
. This should list everything in /mnt
with the owners and permissions. If your mount point (in this example disk
) is owned by user and group root
, then you just need to change ownership of the mount point and the disk attached.
With the disk attached, run sudo chown -R user:user disk
Replace each instance ofuser
with your system username (if you’re not sure what you’re username is run whoami
and it will tell you), and replace disk
with your mount point directory.
Here’s what this does:
sudo
: escalates your privileges to run the chown
commandchown
: the utility that allows you to change ownership of files and directories-R
: tells chown
to change ownership recursivelyuser:user
specifies the user and group that will own the files/directories you are modifying.disk
: specifies the file(s)/directories you want to change ownership for.You do need to be careful, but you can check for errors after editing /etc/fstab
by running the command sudo mount -a
. With the drive attached but not mounted. (Also good practice to use the UUID of the drive in the fstab entry)
That command runs through etc/fstab
and attempts to mount everything it is instructed to mount if it is not already mounted. And if there is an error it will let you know.
If you run sudo mount -a
and you get no output in the terminal, then there are no errors, your drive should now be mounted, and you should be fine for reboots and it should mount on startup as expected.
Instead of using the gui for this, have you tried. creating a mount point and adding an entry to /etc/fstab
?
Edit: fixed stupid autocorrect
Watching sports/sports fandom. I just dont give a fuck about sportsball in any way shape or form.
If you’re just doing a vanilla Linux install, ext4 is the way to go.
Just got some “your server is misconfigured” message when I logged in to my server on element web (on a machine I haven’t installed element desktop on yet) and when I click the link it takes me to this GitHub page talking about camel case vs snake case. All that’s great, but I’m running dendrite and my entire dendrite config file is snake case. 🤷♂️
I haven’t used the clones yet, but I’ll likely go with something like that when these die.
Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. I’m a person with ears that do not work with silicone tips either. I love the fit of AirPods. Tried AirPods Pro, and for my ears, they suck. Doesn’t matter what size tips I use, they seal poorly and fall out constantly. Regular AirPods fit great.
Edit: grammar
Edit 2: that being said, I want to try these because I really want replaceable batteries for my earbuds. It may be moot for me though as I live in the US and currently they aren’t shipping to the US.
First thing I looked at as well. Shame. I’ll buy them when my AirPods die if they offer shipping to the us.
I know nothing of the implications of developing what you’re proposing, but I 1000% support it and would actually start listening to podcasts again if it ever came to fruition and I could use it.
I’m really happy to be hosting my own password manager.
Regarding baserow, I use it in a couple of ways. First is as a replacement for Google Sheets. For my use case, I only ever really used sheets as a dumb database, (home inventory, etc…) so I don’t need the spreadsheet parts of the spreadsheet much.
The other thing I use it for is a backend for my automations for data. Baserow has wonderful api documentation right in the gui, and I use that a lot with data logging for myself.
edit: added Forgejo
Chiming in for Radicale. Been running it for a couple of years now along with Fantastical (I’m on iOS/macOS), and it’s been great.
I do a ton of work on my homelab from my iPad with Blink Shell, and if I had to pick a favorite terminal, it would be Blink. I know this kinda falls outside the goal of your question, and with that in mind, after Blink, my favorite is Konsole.
As a user, I love lemmy, and I want to thank you and the other devs that work tirelessly to develop it.
Also as a user I value the ability to manage my data, and hope to see image deletion implemented when you’re able to do so.
After having read the Nightmare piece, my decision was to stop posting images directly to lemmy. To share images, I’m going to self host an Imgur like service so if I do want to delete an image, I can.
I’m not a developer, and can’t contribute code to address the problem, but, at least for myself, I’ve got a solution I can implement.
If it’s a MacBook that no longer gets updates from Apple then it’s probably from around 2014ish, and is definitely an Intel Mac. This is a great candidate for Linux. If you want an environment that is similar to Mac, go with gnome as the desktop environment. Outside of that, any of the major distributions should be fine. I’ve run KDE Neon, Ubuntu, and am currently running fedora on a 2014 iMac and all of them worked without issue.
