| My gf was not impressed with linux Posted: 06 Apr 2022 12:36 AM PDT I'll admit, it's been some time since I dropped into Linux, but a brand-used x250 and manjaro here I am (keyboard is aweeeesome). I keep trying to explain to her the layers of abstraction that exist, and how every single little function breaks down into more functions all the way down to the very very basic. It's an exercise that really makes me look at humanity differently. Anyway. I forced her to watch the 1982 bell labs film about Unix where Brian kernighan looks cool as fuck rocking his Tims with his feet up on that old school ass console explaining how badass Unix is, and how you can pipe commands together. She started to get what he was saying but said to me: "why would I go to all that trouble typing all that stuff when I can just click the spellcheck button" I tried to make my own similar example to show her how what worked in 1982 Unix still works. Sadly uppercase, lowercase, makewords etc don't come on manjaro xfce standard and don't appear to be in the repo (likely because basic shell manip can do that). So I got ballsy, and tried showing her the power of sed instead. I made a bullshit file, while explaining to her vaguely that everything was a file, I typed "touch kitties" - and she was not astounded upon my next reflexive 'L's -m' to see the file existed in the directory. I got a little cocky, and began to show her the contents of my directory using many arguments - our hidden files tingled in sync as I threw down an ls -lAphXvlmnopqrsT I opened vim and wowed her with all the characters pressed before any characters appeared on screen. I filled that file full of kitties this and kitties that. And for my next trick: :wq! She was aghast - mind completely blown. The application closed itself as if it were magic. As if it took a mere 5 character presses instead of a single click. I gloated a little about how I coulda just saved that file without permission like a fucking badass. At this point she's pretty wet, she's inching closer, I know she can see the sharply defined nipples of my ter-112n console font. I'm about to drop the most clever shit any dude has ever in the presence of a lady willing to watch a man pound away awkwardly at the terminal:
The text file fills the terminal (I made sure to L first) Then I did it
And here I am on reddit where I went to cozy up on the couch where I'll be sleeping tonight, and post about my endeavors. It's fun to be back. Even if I am just doing what seems stupid as hell. [link] [comments] |

| PDF Tools That Are Good In Your Opinion/Experience Posted: 06 Apr 2022 08:38 AM PDT Hello fellow penguins, I am on Pop OS and i want recommendation for pdf tools (creating, highlighting, signing, modifying...) I have never used Adobe PDF programs and didn't use PDFs that are more than 1 page long, so no worries if i miss on stuff others offer, i am not missing any. I just want an app (or online solution) that can do most of what an office guy needs. Thanks in advance and for your help! [link] [comments] |
| Is there a complete grub theme? Posted: 05 Apr 2022 11:51 PM PDT Hi all. I am wanting to make grub look a lot more modern and spiffy. But I've noticed that there are a lot more screens than most of the themes cover. Or at least, that they show in the screenshots. As I newb, I don't know if that means they just didn't include those various grub screens in the theme, or if we're just supposed to assume that they did something and that the theme is complete. If anyone has any insight into this, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you! [link] [comments] |
| Kubuntu 20.04.4 LTS v/s Linux Mint 20.3 “Una” Cinnamon Edition Posted: 06 Apr 2022 08:16 AM PDT Hey friends, I just want to know which distribution is better in terms of stability and usability. I'm using Kubuntu right now and 80% of the time I like it. But occasionally it gets worse, I mean really worse. Sometimes Kubuntu gets stuck between switching windows, sometimes the click won't work. For your Information, the only fancy window animations that I use is the opacity thing and the magic lamp. I've heard that Linux mint Cinnamon is a very mature distribution, and it works really really well, but I haven't seen any comparison between Linux Mint Cinnamon and Kubuntu. I just want to know how it worked for you guys. If you used both Kubuntu and Mint, let me know the difference. Is the comparison made in Slant still relevant in 2022? Especially these about Linux Mint These are my specs CPU: Intel i3-7020U (4) @ 2.300GHz GPU: Intel Integrated HD graphics 620 RAM: 8 Gigabytes [link] [comments] |

| My raspberry pi crashed during an ext4 move and resize operation. Posted: 06 Apr 2022 08:03 AM PDT As the title says. I had a hard drive connected to a raspberry pi and discovered about 50GB of unallocated storage before the partition I wasn't using. So I tried resizing the ext4 partition overnight and the raspberry pi crashed while the resize was occuring. I tried fsck and testdisk to recover the partition and no dice. I haven't used photorec because I don't have where to store the recovered files. There isn't anything important on the drive (at least nothing I didn't already back up) but I assume all the data is still on the drive just in 2 pieces. Is there any way to recover it? Reposting because the other post got buried. [link] [comments] |
| Manjaro KDE Terminal Background white Posted: 06 Apr 2022 06:59 AM PDT Hey, I don't know what exactly happened, but I haven't used my laptop in a while, and now somehow the Terminal background changed to white. I'm pretty sure, in the beginning it was white as well but I managed to switch it to black. I don't understand why it switched now exactly. Anyways everything I found on google didn't work for switching it back. Please any help would be appreciated. [link] [comments] |
| How do i pair a bluetooth device on KDE plasma? Posted: 06 Apr 2022 06:34 AM PDT Hey, i recently switched from Manjaro to Arch with KDE plasma, but how do i pair my wireless earbuds? When i go to system settings and click on bluetooth it says "No devices paired" without an option to pair a new device. How can i pair my wireless earbuds? [link] [comments] |
| CPU temps go through the roof when gaming on Linux Posted: 06 Apr 2022 06:08 AM PDT I've been trying to play Elden Ring on Fedora Workstation 35, but in only 10 minutes of play my temperatures reach 96 Celsius and starts throttling HARD. I've tried undervolting and disabling Intel Turbo Boost to cap the cpu at 2.5GHz, but my temps still skyrocket hard. My CPU is an i5 7300HQ. Playing the same game on windows and it hovers around 90C over an hour of play. I don't know why, but Linux seems to be terrible at managing my temps and I don't know what to do about it. I've been looking for an app that makes me manually manage my fan but I'm not sure which one to get. Please help. [link] [comments] |

| Stable distro for a modern laptop and a DisplayLink dock Posted: 06 Apr 2022 04:31 AM PDT I have a Dell Inspiron 7415 2-in-1 laptop with an AMD Ryzen 7 5700U, 16GB RAM and 512GB NVMe drive and use a Dell D3100 DisplayLink USB3 docking station for my external display and keyboard. I'm looking to move to Linux and want a stable distro that plays nice with modern hardware including my docking station as well as letting me use the screen rotation feature of my laptop as I do use the tent and tablet modes. I'm technically minded but don not want to spend all my time constantly tweaking things to get them or keep them running. [link] [comments] |
| How do I delete these windows 10 partitions in gparted (the delete button and format is greyed out) Posted: 05 Apr 2022 10:08 PM PDT |
| Best distro to learn the ropes? Posted: 06 Apr 2022 03:50 AM PDT So I have a laptop that I use for day to day tasks, some very light gaming (stuff like Binding of Isaac and old school games). I went through and distro hopped but never settled thinking that sometbing else may be better, hearing arch is the best etc. I have used linux very shortly in the past, but mostly windows, from what I've learned ubuntu isn't the best due to the reliance on snap packages? I have learnt that I'm not a fan of Gnome but assume I could change my Desktop Environment no matter the OS. So my question is what's the best for getting to grips with linux? And as I'm only using it day to day and won't come into massive issues are there any resources i can use to learn more about linux and how to use it properly? Cheers [link] [comments] |
| Is there any point to podman rootless containers on a server? Posted: 05 Apr 2022 06:52 PM PDT I've used docker before, but I want to give podman a go. Are rootless containers only meant to be accessed locally and running them on a server pointless? [link] [comments] |
| failed to mount /dev/loop0 ( FIX ) Posted: 06 Apr 2022 03:36 AM PDT Hello dear Community! I got the above mentioned error "failed to mount /dev/loop0" and I found a ton of stuff in the internet on how to fix it but none of it worked for me. I am using a CHUWI HI10 XR (a China Tablet-PC) and wanted to install Garuda Linux. I got it working by fixing the partitions but here some Background informations: What I tried: - disabled secure boot - checked/changed boot order - updating BIOS - change SATA Mode from IDE to AHCI - checked the SHA256-Sum of the downloaded .iso - Used several USB Drives (which all work fine) and tried using an CD/DVD-Rom instead of an USB - Used Rufus, but I tried flashing the USB Drive with balenaEtcher as well none of which did a difference and more... The FIX that worked for me: I simply used gparted live version and booted it from the USB and removed ALL Volumes on the device. I did not format them after that at all to make sure the new OS I want to install can set it up how its needed. You need to reallocate the needed partitions during your next Linux installation yourself though. What you need: - USB Drive - a working Windows/Linux PC Tutorial:
I hope I could help anyone with that same issue. Best Regards [link] [comments] |
| Only scp files that have been changed Posted: 05 Apr 2022 10:49 PM PDT So heres the deal. I have a remote server with no internet access. I'd like to have my .vimrc .vim/... and .viminfo transferrrd there. Im currently using scp to move them all there but .vim can be quite hefty (with linters n all) and the connection is somewhat slow with vpn. It takes about 2minutes to scp the directory. Is there a way I can run the scp script and only move over files that have been changed? (Thus ignoring linters n such) Thank you! [link] [comments] |
| Setting up Kerberos credentials Posted: 06 Apr 2022 01:56 AM PDT Hi there, I'm using Linux Mint, and have been for a while now. Every time I need to SSH somewhere (and there are a few places I need to SSH into very often) one of the things that the terminal says before asking for a password is: thank you [link] [comments] |
