  • is there any drawback to having too many partitions?

    Jump

  • partitions are used for organizing, the downside is that more partitions make each one smaller

    I end up running 1 btrfs partition sagred between all my installed Linux distros on one system

    lvm is also awesome for resizing and moving partitions

    my desktop right now has nvme0n1p1 as my efi partition and p2 as a lvm pv

    inside that lvm I put everything else as it's very easy to resize and move them (I also have p2 encrypted with luks2)

  • It just... works

  • /run/user/1000: What to do with it?

    Jump

  • /run contains all sorts of virtual stuff, it doesn't persist over a reboot,

    I would advise against deleting anything in it as those files are used by programs running as whether user has the ID of 1000 (most likely you)

    it contains things such as sockets and lock files so that programs can interact with each other

  • ah I misunderstood, thought you talking about underload, not idle power use

  • all the laptops I've ever had have been able to reliability pull the full power (like within 30 watts) of their power adapter rating so that's a good estimate

  • do you have DNS over https turned on in Firefox? iirc nordvpn blocks it to prevent DNS leaks

  • lsof is a good tool would recommend it whenever something weird is happen, tho you gotta be root for it

  • Installing a hardware firewall/DHCP/Wireguard Server

    Jump

  • another roart of the thread suggested using the Celeron box as an OPNsense router

  • Installing a hardware firewall/DHCP/Wireguard Server

    Jump

  • OPNsense is a gateway/firewall/DHCP/router my network looks like this

    optical to Ethernet conversion (the isp's things) -> opnsense box -> network switch -> all other device (including wifi APs)

    all traffic gets routed thru the opnsense box as it is the gateway to my network, runs the ipv4 nat and DHCP server

    router in their comment refers to the the one that actually touches the Internet

  • ExpressVPN bug leaks DNS requests for Windows users with split tunneling:

    Jump

  • so it would be like you say I want Firefox to go thru the tunnel, you would want the DNS requests made from it to go thru as well, in this case they weren't tunneled and were just going to the normal dns server

  • Bluetooth Help (MX Linux Plasma, kernel 6.1.0-13)

    Jump

  • not sure your exact case, but I would highly recommend using pipewire, Bluetooth audio devices were nothing but pain for me with pulse audio and they just worked on pipewire

    I've used Sony xm4s

  • Should I use a dedicated DHCP/DNS server hardware

  • what do you mean? they're fine unless you want to read or write to them... wait a minute

  • Which distro in your opinion is the best for virtualization (Windows 10 on either KVM or VMware), stability, and speed?

    Jump

  • virt-manager can also connect to remote hosts over ssh

  • "Combokeys" instead of hotkeys. [Feature/new command suggestion]

    Jump

  • I think you can already do this in one shortcuts, not sure of any standalone program that does, if definably accidentally bond like Ctrl+d, Ctrl+s to screenshot before

  • Flatpak can look daunting...

    Jump

  • I think at one point I had like 2.5 tb of stuff stored on my 2 tb drive in my laptop, deduplication and btrfs compression is fun
