Bonjour le fediverse 👋

Je suis un utilisateur #linux qui joue ici par là. En ce moment c'est plus de #DeepRockGalactic et très récemment #ApexLegends (oui, ça marche nickel sous Linux) s'est ajouté à ma collection.

Un bon samedi à tous et toutes!

Am WE sind die Chemnitzer Linuxtage (online). Ich bin Sonntag um 15 Uhr dran mit "Orientierung und Produktivität auf der Kommandozeile", für alle, die nur gelegentlich eine Shell aufmachen oder aus der Windows-Welt kommen.

Viel Spaß bei den Chemnitzer #Linux Tagen ( @Chemnitzer Linux-Tage ), das Programm sieht schon mal sehr reizvoll aus 😎👍

Some lectures are in English as well.


I always have a faint feeling of danger every time I use screen(1) on #Linux. Because it is meant to be a seamless virtual terminal, there are no visual hints about the keyboard shortcuts required to leave a session for example. Even after pressing Ctrl+a, there's no indication screen is in command input mode, so it always comes as a surprise and a relief to me that the next command actually does what I expected.

It's a sense of dread similar to using vim(1), but at least vim shows the command as it's typed. On the other hand it's always very confusing when I forget to enter input mode and start typing text.

*shivers*


Und wir haben fertig gebaut!
80 Vorträge erwarten euch in diesem Jahr, dazu noch ein paar Workshops und erneut unser virtuelles Hörsaalgebäude. Nun habt ihr wieder die Qual der Wahl!

Announcement: Downtime git.friendi.ca / wiki.friendi.ca / files.friendi.ca / drone.friendi.ca


There might be a planned downtime tomorrow 14:00 CET. I am still figuring out if it is necessary to swap the NVME storage drive of the server and am in contact with the hosting company.

Please prepare for about 4-6 hours downtime to allow raid resync.

It might be much shorter, but I feel more comfortable with that prognosis.

Also if you know your way around NVME replacement and raid resync I am open for suggestions on how to do this, maybe it is possible to resync the system while it is running, last time I did not manage to do this and had to use a rescue live #Linux system to recover.

Details on the time scheduled in your timezone:

I was a little interested to hear about linus of linus tech tips trying to switch over to #linux for home/gaming use. But after hearing him bitch about downloading a shell script on github on his podcast I've lost interest.

For the interested it's largely the same problems a windows user might have downloading a powershell script off github.

I.E. more about linus's lack of comfort with the OS, and with github. Shouldn't actually be a linux critique. #ltt

Ich bräuchte ein wenig Hilfe und Ideen zum Thema Linux Installation.

Auf einem alten 64 Bit PC, dessen BIOS beim Booten leider nur USB Sticks mit maximal 2GB akzeptiert, würde ich gerne ein aktuelles Kubuntu 21.04 installieren. Das ISO ist leider 2.7GB groß.

Was könnte ich machen, um Kubuntu 21.04 hier zu installieren, ohne dass ich über die 64Bit 18.04 64 Bit Version und sämtliche Updates gehen muss.

8 Reasons to Switch from #Windows to #Linux - Make Tech Easier

There's been an upsurge in the number of users switching from Windows to Linux. Here are the reasons to make that switch from Windows to Linux.

https://www.maketecheasier.com/switch-windows-10-to-linux/


Installed #Linux Mint to see what it was all about. My impressions so far.

1st day: Wow! So many features built-in and they work out of the box! It is just like Windows!

2d day: Not everything works actually but it can be fixed intuitively...or not. Some things seem to be too hard to fix, it is better to get used to them. Just like in Windows.

3rd day: But I already have #Windows.

#LinuxMint


I’m no longer running #Linux on the desktop.

Aspettando il Linux Day 2021
Fri 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM
Unplug

Il 23 ottobre 2021 ci sarà il Linux Day, il grande evento nazionale dedicato ai temi di Linux e del software libero.

In attesa di questo grande giorno, ci prepariamo con una tavola rotonda informale sul tema di quest'anno, "Dati a chi?" (non vi preoccupate, saranno quattro chiacchiere in libertà sull'argomento).

Vogliamo dunque invitare tutta la community del software e della cultura libera e di Linux della provincia di Bari a partecipare, in modo anche da poter discutere dell'organizzazione del Linux Day Bari 2021.

A conclusione della serata, un piccolo aperitivo offerto da Wikimedia Italia e poi una pizzata tutti insieme, per chi vuole fermarsi ancora un po'.

Per ragioni di sicurezza, vi chiediamo di inviare una mail segnalando la vostra partecipazione a bari@ils.org


Kiwi Farms is a murderous community that gets away with it because of the benefit of the doubt since there aren't any "physical" interactions between Kiwi Farms users and their victims. But the damage they do is real. On the #Fediverse you can block the domain kiwifarms.cc but I'm afraid there is little that can be done to thwart them beyond that.

Seems like the famous Byuu/Near who developed bsnes/higan (the best SNES emulators) has committed suicide. Very sad. #linux #linuxgaming #emulation #supernes #nintendo #byuu #near

This morning /tmp was full, clearly #Friendica or #PHP, but didn't have time to check, so just rebooted the server.
Is there a command to wipe the #Linux temp folder? Not rm -rf or so.

Hello !Friendica Support,
anyone any idea what this messages in journalctl mean? I got lots of these before my server crashed and have no Idea what this is.

I guess something was wrong with either MariaDB or the VM itself that cause long operation times on the database which led to lots of long running locks. But what do I do with this?

Mein aktuelles Mobiltelefon mit #LineageOS zeigt deutliche - vor allem mechanische - Alterungserscheinungen. Ich habe bereits 2017 ein #Librem5 bestellt, und mich für den Evergreen-Batch entschieden, die Lieferung ist für irgendwann im Mai angekündigt. Nun hoffe ich, dass der Lieferzeitpunkt auch bei den aktuellen Lieferengpässen bei Elektronikkomponenten hält, und vermute dass das dann ein Sprung ins kalte Wasser wird. Erinnert mich ein wenig an meinen Wechsel von Windows zu #Linux ca 2001. 😃


Hubzilla sendmail sorted but WHY must Debian make life difficult

There is currently a campaign that tries to raise money to improve #Anbox (an Android emulator) on #ubuntutouch.

#Volla has already donated a thousand Euros to kick things of and the campaign has raised 1500€ 💸 so far.

This is a good start, but they need at least 6000€ to hire a freelancer 💻️.

If you are a #FOSS or #Linux enthusiast, please consider donating and help to make #linuxonmobile happen.

Thank you ♥️

Git Help...


Hi folks,

there is a project that I'd like to contribute that uses #GIT to upload the translations, I thought that I would able to understand the process but I was wrong.

I did some translations in the clone folder but I have not idea how to move forward, I found the same GIT (poorly written) tutorial spread in hundreds of pages with the same content; It is pretty frustrating.

Does anyone of you know a practical and nice tutorial for beginner considering that I am not a coder and I don't have any coding background?

Thanks!

Today we try to make sense of decentralized chatting with @matrixdotorg@twitter.com and share what it’s like to sign up and use on #Linux. Of course we grabbed @element_hq@twitter.com to stay connected and we watch “This Week In Matrix” to absorb even more knowledge.

Is Friendica stable 2021.01 already PHP 8 ready?

What is the state of the current dev version? Should I switch and set the log to debug before?

PHP 8.0.1 just hit #Arch #Linux, so when I do the next update I would get it.
