Well, having a domain is basically documenting your IP publicly. It’s not that risky.

ARM boards with slotted RAM use the same type as x86 (although mostly LPDDR, as found in laptops), so I assume there isn’t any difference that is related to the CPU architecture.

My theory for why it created copies: The files you listed look like they are all subdirectories from /dev, which is (usually) a separate filesystem. When you try to move a file or directory across filesystems, the OS can’t just change the link, it has to actually copy the files and then remove the original. As a directory is a set of links to files, and the copies are different files, directories are just newly created with the same name in the new location instead of copying the directory filesystem entry. It looks like mv creates these target directories, before it checks if it actually has permission to remove the source, but checks file permissions, before it copies them

Except the circumstances in which they run on gasoline are not that exceptional: https://theicct.org/publication/real-world-phev-use-jun22/ And the lower weight of the battery is partially offset by needing an additional drive train, a transmission with multiple gears (purely electric cars usually have fixed transmission) and other smaller parts required for the combustion engine. These also increase the required maintenance a lot (e.g. requiring oil changes).

It’s a reference to the TNG episode Chain of Command

My Lemmy client can’t do spoiler tags, but the explanation for the “four lights” part is in the plot section of the linked wiki article

Regarding snapshots, I use a setup, where at the root of the btrfs partition I have the subvolumes “rootfs”, “home”, and a directory “snapshots”. I can boot into a snapshot by changing the mount options for the rootfs in the kernel command line, e.g.setting subvol=snapshots/rootfs-yyyy-mm-dd.

The only difference between a snapshot and a regular subvolume is that snapshots are readonly by default, you can keep a writable copy of a snapshot beside it for recovery purposes, if you need it. As long as nothing is written in it, it shouldn’t use any significant extra space.

I know that, but that does not give apps root access. Unless you mean something else by root access than being run with root privileges

But Shift+insert currently pastes the primary selection, not the copy-paste clipboard. So it doesn’t do the same as Ctrl+V.

Well, the article proposes to use dedicated copy and paste keys. If you don’t have an insert key, you probably don’t have those either.

And best of all, you get an OS that is secure, which traditional Linux distros aren’t due to every app having root access by default.

What? Which distro runs everything as root by default?

If it is anything like other surgeries done at vets, the risky part with such an old animal is the sedation, not the surgery itself. And with animals you usually need to fully sedate them, as they don’t understand that they need to stay still.

Sunless Sea, Sunless Skies and Stardew Valley have native Linux Support. For Stardew, even the third modding API works flawlessly for me.

For the other ones, they are reported to run well on protondb.com, which is a good place to check Linux support (not only for Steam games). The reports there usually also list, which proton version works well.

I found these grips very helpful https://makerworld.com/models/607677

Without them, my hands go numb after about an hour with the Steamdeck, these make it much more ergonomic for my large hands.

Manual firmware updates

As someone who’s work laptop no longer has Wi-Fi since the automatic firmware update, I like my updates to be manual.

It’s mostly because you can have tickets that are not bound to a specific train. Aside from things like monthly tickets you can also have tickets for a single ride, which have a fixed start and end station, but you can take any train on the booked day. When you don’t know beforehand, which train you will take, you can still reserve a seat as soon as you decide (even just before the train leaves)

Wouldn’t it still look weird because the two images are offset in a different axis than your eyes?

Ach, T-Online bekommt das auch hin, ähnlichen Quatsch zu veranstalten.

Bei denen hatte ich Mal fast zwei Wochen kein Internet, weil sie die Zugangsdaten gesperrt hatten. Der Techniker und die Hotline haben drei Tage gebraucht, um überhaupt herauszufinden, was das Problem ist. Stellt sich raus, ich habe nie die Zugangsdaten für meinen Anschluss bekommen, dafür den vom Telefonanschluss meiner Oma, die im gleichen Haus wohnte. Irgendwann hatte ich dann eine Mitarbeiterin am Telefon, die mir erklärt hat, dass sie wohl eine Zeit lang versehentlich Internet-Zugangsdaten zu reinen Telefonverträgen angelegt haben und da dann mal aufgeräumt haben. Warum genau meine Zugangsdaten dann nicht zugestellt wurden, wusste sie auch nicht, aber der war wohl intern noch nicht aktiviert (nach mehreren Jahren).

Habe dann neue Zugangsdaten geschickt bekommen, aber bis der Brief da war, waren die wieder gesperrt, die Hotline wusste auch nicht warum. Der zweite Brief half dann endlich.

Try eject /dev/sr0, that should be your disk drive if it is attached via SATA or USB. /dev/cdrom is usually just a symlink.

I don’t use GNOME, but from what I’ve read (and from experience with other software that has extensions) they often break when GNOME updates.

but had the genes

I’d say that falls under “birth lottery” as much as wealth inheritance.
