Haha, yes… I did eventually look at some of the messages that were used to form these clouds, and the first instance of “love” I found was “I love stroking it to [insert something]”. So I might have been naïve in my assessment…
“Love”, “good”, “happy” keep ranking high. I somehow doubt the same would be true for Twitter these days.
I deleted my desktop environment during an apt upgrade, not once, but twice. Bad habit of not actually reading the messages that pop up properly - it did ask me if I wanted to delete it all, and I just said “yea lol lfg”. There was some conflict with a third party PPA that caused this.
Didn’t know that had happened to begin with. I was stuck on the session manager login screen and it just wouldn’t proceed after entering password. First time I just reinstalled Linux, and the second time I found out how to reinstall it from tty. This is how I learned about tty as well.
Torrents?
But how can we sustain infinite growth indefinitely then?
Is that was he is claiming though? I read it as spending effort to get people to follow him there, i.e. posting and engaging on the platform to increase his visibility and number of followers there, when he could spend that effort doing it elsewhere / doing something else.
Jellyfin is also useful for music collection. I tried both it and Navidrome to start with, and ended up only using Jellyfin.
Good to know! I mean, their WebFAI-installer does support installation of other distros as well, so I would imagine it should work better than I originally feared after reading the latest news.
I have not fully understood the meaning or significance of these news and the content of this article. I have a Tuxedo laptop, and for now I am happy with Tuxedo OS. But I am of course interested in the ability to change distro at some point.
Am I understanding it correctly that I will have a very hard time doing so without patching the kernel myself to ensure proper hardware support? And even then it will be difficult?
There are some periods where YouTube make changes frequently so that e.g. FreeTube stops working for some time, but for the most part it works reliably well. I would say it provides a much better convenience than watching on youtube.com logged out, as you have profiles, subscriptions, playlist and history. Including adblock, sponsorblock and dearrow, and granular control over what to show or not (comments, shorts, live etc.).

Cheers, I’ll look into setting up SFTP in Dolphin.
Samba shuffles rather a lot of data, quite happily. You have not given us an exhaustive description of the shoddy wiring, dodgy switches and wonky configuration that makes up your network. If it was perfect, you would not be posting here.
The network is by no means ideal. I am transferring from a laptop on WiFi to a server on WiFi located some distance from the WAP. If I owned the place I would do a rewire, but for now it’s the best I can do. I think I assumed that there would be error-checking involved when copying. Since following the advice here of using rsync i stead, I have found that files tend to fail in bunches and I need to rerun several times for it to actually complete. Am I right to assume that comes down to packet loss due to poor signal?
Your issue is probably hardware related. Test your network with say iperf3. Have a look at network stats. Don’t rely on cargo cult bollocks - do some investigations. Nowadays we have nearly all the tools as open source to do the entire job - we did not have that 30 years ago. Grab wireshark, nmap, mtr and the rest and get nerdy (or hire me to do it - don’t do that please!)
This is above my skill level for now, but I’m adding it to my notes to go back to. I have some ambition of upping my network knowledge in the coming year, and being able to do use such tools to troubleshoot would be great.
Windows 11 on a Lenovo Thinkpad for work. No Linux-option, but we are working on it. Would still need Win11 for Office-work, as it is widespread in the organization and interop with LibreOffice or OnlyOffice isn’t flawless.
Been off Spotify for over a year now after being on for about 15 years (2008-2023 I think). Trying to prioritize buying music from contemporary artists who are not big. Not too sure about the best places to buy from though, after Bandcamp was sold and laid off a bumch of people. Where does Qobuz or 7digital stack up in terms of paying the artists?
Oh, I didn’t know that. Neat!
I think I will go with rsync for future transfers, but I would like for it to be browsable through the file browser still. Is there a better way than samba I should consider? I guess it is not an issue just keeping them as samba shares for that purpose?
How would I achieve that? With cron?
I use ledger. I have not automated so much outside of autocomplete macros in my text editor, but it doesnt’t take too much time and forces me to look over my spend, so I like it. I will eventually attempt to build some kind of Dash-application for visualisation of the output, but have only started on the parsers so far.
