Wayland Will Never Be Ready For Every Xorg User #Linux #YouTube https://youtu.be/yURfsJDOw1E

it's been quite a while, so lemme write a new #intro

#introduction #introductions

i'm raven, a silly transgirl on the internet who likes to write, and create free-to-use #photography (mostly landscapes). u can find me on mastodon, and see what an overview of what i’m up to on my now page. i have so many interests and try my best to experience new things in this short life. some sort of neurospicy, tend to be overly genuine, a bit corny, over-opinionated at times

“chaotic af, kinda scatter brained, but smart if that makes sense”

“very direct and able to be vulnerable very easily (a good thing!) and the most ethically-minded and community-focused person ive met!”

i upload my photography as creative commons attribution license, i don't own a car, i have a #cat named Loki who i post about under the #catsofmastodon tag, i'm #divorced after a 14 year marriage (not the outcome i wanted, but here i am), and now happily in relationships as a relationship anarchist.

I stood in line to buy it. A month later, I took the requirement "Windows 98 or better" literally enough to buy my first copy of Linux. #Windows #Linux

I wish that when I add another mirror to a vdev in ZFS it would only scan that vdev to resilver because it would be way faster than scanning the entire zpool. I can't find a way to do this though. The current estimated time for resilvering less than 80GiB. is "no estimated completion time", but occasionally goes down to "3 days", even though it should take less than an hour & a half.

It seems like scanning the entire zpool instead of only the affected one is wasting bandwidth, causing the resilvering data to be issued at very low speed (5MiB./s.). I bet more CPU time & memory could be used for it to speed it up a little too because it's currently using very little resources. Are there some settings I can adjust to change how ZFS handles resilvering & system resource usage?

Well, it's time. I'm releasing my tool that lets you aggregate patch and update status of hosts over ssh on unix-like systems.

The github repository has details as well as links to the exhaustive documentation.

It is my hope that at least another person finds it useful

what are y'all's favorite linux-compatible music plugins? i took a long break from anything music-related, so i'm just now learning how to do linux audio work these past couple days... i'm curious what the faves and the must-haves of the linux music scene are? and any tips y'all may have for a beginner? looking forward to hopefully publishing my first cover soon!! ^_^ #music #linux

Since we did one for X11 lets do one for Wayland,

For all the Wayland users out there, what is it that made you finally swap to Wayland? Or did some of you not even realize you've swapped to Wayland. #Linux

I've got a #Pimoroni #Tiny2350, and I installed the #picokey #pico-fido firmware on it, fudging the "Custom VID/PID" to make it superficially appear to be a #Yubikey. I've set up the passkey with github and google.com - they accept it!.

A PIN gets initially set; it needs to be used - plus also the hardware button labelled "BOOT" must be pressed - every time I use it to authenticate.

These Tiny2350's are much cheaper than Yubikeys. They cost about 1/6th the price. But you have to fiddle with the custom firmware, and there are several puzzling parameters in the "commissioner" (alas, only works in #Chrome), so you have to invest your time and labour. Not really sure if it's worth it. 🤔

I have a #Windows update sitting there waiting for me to click Download & Install.

I looked it up; it adds #recall and #copilot #ai crap to the OS that I will NEVER want.

I said when I first got this machine that I would give Windows 11 a fair shake since it came preinstalled.

Needless to say, my visits to #DistroWatch have increased exponentially in the past few weeks.

BashCore isn’t meant to replace your OS. It’s meant to empower it.

While your host runs Windows or Linux, BashCore lives in a VM, live, disposable, focused.

It's your operational brain: Tor, Mullvad, SSH, scans, brute force.

Reboot, and it vanishes.
Your OS stays clean.

BashCore: Plug. Play. Power up.

Wow, Proton and Vulkan have come a long way. I just installed BG3 and OW2 on my Linux machine, and both run perfectly - probably even better than on Windows. Who needs Windows anymore?

I know this is going to start a fight, lol

Simple enough, what would be your main day-to-day Operating System?

Mine is currently Linux (endeavourOS) for all my day-to-day stuff.
And I only switch to Windows for gaming.

Well, crap. I somehow managed to remove myself from the sudoers group on my primary laptop. Ugh. That's a problem. Time to backup my homedir and then try to fix this.

Linux tip: don't do that. 😜

Faaarrk. What's the easy 'proactive' measure one can take?

Is it as simple as creating a second sudo (admin) account?... Another 'god' account to recover the primary 'god' account if it gets broken?

(Can you tell I'm still a #Linux newbie?)

got a new gaming pc and it came with #linux #mint and, it just works.

steelseries wireless mouse? works
nvidia gpu? works

steam is currently downloading stuff at a whopping 300mbs (nbn fixed wiress too!)

this is actually pretty awesome!

Hey #Linux #nerds, any idea why a #Debian server with a 64 GB main drive would report such a huge discrepancy between `df` and `du`? `df` reports 20 GB used, while `du` reports just 6 GB used. I'm trying to resize the partition and #GParted thinks that its the 20 GB used.

And another Server migrated over from Hetzner to @netcup . Again, absolutely flawless and working great :-)

Services now migrated to Netcup:
- Uptime-Kuma
- BIND (secondary authoritative DNS for my zones)
- Forgejo (Git forge)
- Personal Website
- Librespeed (Speed-Test Node)
- Bsky PDS (Personal-Data-Server for BlueSky)
- Atuin (Shell-History Sync server)
- Anubis (Anti AI Crawler protection)
- Authentik (SAML/OIDC SSO Server)
- Wallos (Subscription tracker)
- stepCA (x.509 PKI CA)

Running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 (aarch64) with Podman and behind a traefik reverse-proxy. All containers managed via Systemd and quadlet files (/etc/containers/systemd/*.container)

Services remaining on Hetzner:
- OpenShift lab
- Mastodon burningboard.net
- Ansible RHCE Lab/Learn environment
- freeIPA/IdM Server and Red Hat Satellite

Step by step getting my (vast) infrastructure sorted and onto energy-efficient ARM servers at Netcup :)

Hello, I’m a #newbiehere and I’m posting because I’d like to share something.

As an old IT guy, I want to share a script that makes life easier for (home) admins when a “curl” or “wget” fails during certificate (#SSL / #TLS) verification.
This doesn’t happen very often, so I always forgot what to do, when it did happen.

The script checks which certificates are missing and downloads them, so you can add them to your list of CAs (certification authorities) if needed. How to do this is explained in my accompanying documentation.

Maybe just take a look and see if it’s useful to you.

Of course it’s #opensource, described at https://github.com/himbeer-toni/UserScripts/blob/main/fetch-missing-ca.md, where you’ll also find a download link.

I’d be glad if it helps someone!

Hallo ich bin #neuhier und melde mich, weil etwas teilen möchte.

Als alter ITler möchte ich ein Skript teilen, dass dem (Home-)Admin das Leben erleichert, wenn wieder mal ein "curl" oder "wget" bei der Verifizierung eines Zertifikats (#SSL / #TLS) scheitert.
Das kommt nicht so oft vor, deswegen hatte ich immer vergessen was zu tun ist, wenn es mal wieder so weit war.

Das Script prüft welche Zertifikate fehlen, lädt sie herunter, so dass man sie ggf. in die Liste der CAs (certification authorities) aufnehmen kann. Wie das geht, steht in meiner dazugehörigen Doku.

Vielleicht einfach mal sehen, ob ihr es brauchen könnt.

Natürlich #opensource, beschrieben auf https://github.com/himbeer-toni/UserScripts/blob/main/fetch-missing-ca.md, da wäre dann auch ein Downloadlink.

Würde mich freuen, wenn es jemandem hilft!
