Two additional commands I regularly use as a Sysadmin are
systemctl status without any unit to list show the general system status (lists units that are running, units that are starting and failed units right at the top)
And then
systemctl list-units --failed
To show me just the failed units and did deeper what the problem is.
On a properly set up system I should quickly be able to ascertain if everything is “up and running” just by systemds status
I agree but recently the user themes extension broke notifications and I’ve already slimmed down my extensions to only the most necessary ones … So now I’m honestly thinking about trying Plasma properly.
MHH interesting. I honestly haven’t really given kde a fair shot since KDE4 maybe I need to force myself to use Plasma 6. Gnome has really gotten on my nerves lately. But I also know that on Plasma I will mostly recreate my gnome experience (Super key, hot corner …) since these are so ingrained in me from over a decade of using gnome.
Incredibly I’ve had two printers I’ve never really had issues with.
Antennapod does offer that by hooking into the gpodder.net API.ive had varying success with gpodder.net but hosting that yourself (I host it as an app on my Nextcloud) is a breeze
Oh I can be mad about it >:(
Seriously gateways should be first or last address in the space. Fight me!
As a Linux nerd and Privacy/Open source advocate it’s tough to admit. But I can’t use DuckDuckGo. I work as a Linux Sysadmin and Google is the only search engine reliably returning good results (especially on more obscure topics). With DuckDuckGo I’ve often noticed that it will simply “drop” words from you search terms (i.e. if you search “yellow computer chair” it might just show you any kind of yellow chair or something like that) which makes it unusable for precise searches.
Can’t quite speak for the n100 but I got a n305 one of these “China PCs” it’s passively cooled (which was important since it’s running in my bedroom) and seems to have amazing performance for what I need (I put jellyfin on there). I’m quite happy after futzing around with ARM SBCs and external drives this just works so well.
Jup same here. We have a colleague that constantly reminds everyone that we’re not properly patched (even running eol versions) but there’s always something to be done that’s a higher priority.
Yeah might have gotten stuck on Debian as well if I didn’t make the mistake to run stable when I first tried it. Choosing stable made sense to me since I wanted a stable os but when I was greeted by “ICE weasel” that was way behind the Firefox I got used to on Ubuntu and other software being terribly out of date I decided to move on.
Well then I got stuck on Arch.
But while it would be easy to say “never looked back” that’s not true of course, these days I tun Debian on most of my machines (only that they are servers) and Ubuntu on some (like my work Laptop) my personal Desktop and laptop are Arch though and probably always will be.
Funny I had to Google ci" to remember what it does even though I use that sometimes.
I’ve committed to learning vim years ago and in most situations im faster in vim than in nano etc. (especially because of muscle memory) I still feel like I’m not properly using vim to it’s full extend (like whenever I remember using registers it feels like magick and I’m sure there’s more like that)
Oops guess I didn’t read far enough ;)
An article about tweaking sudo without insults?
No do is not the “none superuser” version of sudo.
As the comment above stated it’s part of loops. But since loop syntax are built in to bash they are actually seperate built-in commands. Because it’s an available builtin autocompletion offers it to you.
The do command here is just a special command that expects a certain set of parameters and a done at the end this is why you get an error trying to run do alone because it’s not adhering to the syntax properly.
I appreciate nano as a choice. Sure. But if visudo opens in nano and suddenly I have a bunch of “yoi:wq” in my sudoers I’ll be upset.
It’s a stopgap but Teams for Linux at least gives you Wayland support, choice of seperate window sharing and background filters
As stated above. I know that there are actual logs produced (I honestly would not have known where to look for them by heart but that’s my shortcoming) my comment was meant to be sarcastic sorry for dropping that /s
Sorry I thought I was exaggerating enough but once again sarcasm doesn’t come through on the internet.
I know that actual logs are produced and can be viewed and I know that there are actual crash dumps being sent that are actually used for improvement.
Whole I don’t believe in the “hide what’s happening from the user” approach I get that Microsoft isn’t actually malicious or hates their users.
Again sorry for dropping the /s
Well of course they need to report your information to Microsoft, after all the application crashed on your computer and since it’s a Microsoft application it can’t be the fault of the application (also why you don’t see an error Log) so you must have been holding it wrong so they need your info to find out how you were holding it wrong.
You can … WHAT!?
Wow I did not know that. Incredibly helpful
