If you’re really out of options you can just brute-force it:

# grep -r 'old.home.lab' /etc

Or any other dir with configs…

Although the display was grating, Trump fell for it hook, line and sinker. Having seen Rutte in his previous role as prime-minister before this was all an act just to butter him up.

Maybe buildroot is something you’re looking for?

It is a nice look into the switch from a perspective of a windows user. But since he is experimenting there is a also a lot of bad choices or wrong information.

He gripes about things not going smoothly while replacing his whole desktop environment (when was the last time you replaced your explorer.exe?).

And clamping to old ways of doing things. Which is understandable but would go a lot better with a little bit of guidance. Why force Chrome while Firefox was probably pre-installed or Chromium also works. Using Filezilla while Dolphin can probably do it in an integrated way. Using Notepad++ while Kate probably covers most of his use-cases.

This doesn’t invalidate his experiences but it does indicate a resistance to switch.

There is some valid criticisms as well though. The docking station that bugs out or KDE Connect that is confused. We can improve those things, but hardly force Logitech to bring their (horrible) software suite to Linux.

Maybe he should give it another few weeks to actually feel that while his old ways might not transfer over 1:1 the new ways give him a lot more power.

Hmm, the years are a bit faded but first install of Redhat in 1996-7 somewhere as a short experiment, then Slackware, SuSE, LFS, Gentoo, and since then lazy with Kubuntu… Might switch again soon with the Snap fiasco.

The BOFH and his PFY are still helping their users…

Try sunglasses? But maybe other souls can still be saved from evil…

Disadvantage: you’re now using a browser from the biggest spy ad-ware company and killed web heterogeneity.

Try: Firefox from Mozilla-Team PPA

Thanks for that little riddle, managed to solve it (with the hint) during my morning coffee.

For a moment I thought you literally meant a penguin herder, I would be so happy…

You could try the book… The movie is quite tame compared to the book though. It sketches a very detailed look into the time as well. Iirc there are about five pages in wich Bateman explains why he loves certain music albums. And of course his whole morning routine… I really liked it.

That’s such a shame. ZFS has been rock solid for me for years while I hear lots of scary stories about btrfs.

Just a note, unless you have a very specific use-case you don’t want to do deduplication.

Yes, and it saved my ass a few times. Every computer I own now and in the future will have at least mirrored or raidz disks with zfs. On all desktops, laptops, servers and nas.

Even upgrading from spinning rust to ssd was easy replacing the disks one by one and resilvering.

The (k)ubuntu installation made it very easy to have an encrypted zfs rootfs but they may have removed it on newer installation iso’s, I’m not sure…

Ha sure, although since it is not well traveled there aren’t any Lemmy comments yet. But you’re very welcome to visit…

Nice, I did the same for my blog. Didn’t want to build a whole comment system when Lemmy fits the bill quite nicely :)

On a city crossroad, with warning signs, lights, pylons and tape not to drive over it, was a car in the center. Sunken to its axels in freshly poured concrete. The idiot driver had just ignored everything and could now pay to have the concrete fixed.

For when you dont need a GUI you can walk the tree from a CLI:

du --max-depth=1 | sort -g

Apparently TrueNAS are building FreeIPA support in their next release. It is currently in beta and I’m waiting for the release to test it.

I’m running Mopidy with web interface to stream to multiple audio output devices (like my receiver in the living room) using Snapcast on Pi’s (some with HiFiBerry module) over the network. Mopidy also integrates nicely into my workstation with KDE using MPDRIS and a local Snapcast server.

This works for both my music collection and some webstreams. I’m quite happry with this setup.
