Do any custom kernels actually for real help increase responsiveness of the system (not throughput). For example, compiling something in the background while using Firefox.

What's the terminal front end people use for spotify?

What is /g/ choice for a shell ?

>>101581437
Well there's Spicetify which is a CLI tool that lets you tweak the desktop Spotify client in all sorts of ways like removing ads in basic account sessions and such. Though I don't think there's a way to run Spotify completely through a terminal itself.
Though I guess a CLI music player/streamer out there may have Spotify compatibility.

I have a question!

I am trying to follow a tutorial, I boot from mmcblk1, (Debian arm bookworm 6.#)
df -h looks right, then after system has booted I plug in a usb thumb drive that has the same img on it (Debian arm bookworm 6.#)
After plugging usb thumb drive in /dev/mmcblk1p2 disappears and /dev/sda2 shows up. I know /dev/sda is the mmc because of the size. This is confusing me because of the tutorial I am following does not make any sense.

-right after boot:

root@server:# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 3.8G 0 3.8G 0% /dev
tmpfs 768M 832K 768M 1% /run
/dev/mmcblk1p2 58G 725M 55G 2% /

tmpfs 5.0M 8.0K 5.0M 1% /run/lock
/dev/mmcblk1p1 240M 25M 204M 11% /boot

-after plugging in usb thumb drive:

Zsh

with awk, why does this not work? even using printf with variable properly formatting gives me a null value for the variable.

awk ' BEGIN {{ input = ARGV[1] } { print input }} '

no output

awk '  BEGIN {{ input = ARGV[1] }  { printf("\n%d\n", input)  } } '

output 0 regardless of base 10 input used.

How would I run a bash script automatically every time a specific user's account becomes active, whether by logging in fresh or by using the "switch user" function?
I want to block access to a handful of websites only for a specific user account on the computer. The hosts file seems the easiest way to block sites, but is system-wide as far as I know.
I wonder if I could just have a script automatically run whenever a user logs on which replaces the system hosts file with whatever version of the hosts file is designated for that user.

>>101582068
Isn't dumb, filenames are worthless for this task cause they're too easy to change and spoof, there're standarized headers you use to actually determine what kind of file you're actually dealing with.

Post small shell scripts that you couldn't do without anymore
Here's one. It just returns the newest file in the working directory.

#!/usr/bin/env bash

files=(*) newest=${files[0]}
for f in "${files[@]}"; do
        if [[ ! -d $f && $f -nt $newest ]]; then
                newest=$f
        fi
done
echo "$newest"

I often call it with other commands, such as

dragon -x "$(newestfile)"

I might expand it so it accepts arguments like n-1, n-2, etc (so it returns the penultimate newest file, and so on)

>>101583531
>they are an isolated sandbox?
Not "are", but "can be". It works on a permission basis, similar to Android apps. In the end, depends on which permissions the app requests. You can deny them all, of course, conceding that the software might not work properly. However, the default permissions are granted beforehand, so a clueless user may not even be aware of how much control the application exerts over their system.

All in all, flatpaks are a step towards better security in Linux, there's more ease to fine-tune access and provide better protection, but that does not mean invulnerability (far from it), just improvement. User discretion is still required, as always.

Has anyone ever tried to do something like run debian and then run distrobox under that with a bleeding edge distro like arch and have all your applications, desktop etc run under the distrobox container or is this too much of a hack?
Is there much difference between running distrobox and just running a regular chroot in the first place? I imagine with distrobox most of the configs you do inside of the container wont save whenever you have to update the container unless you start making stuff like /etc a shared volume on the host

Yeah, you're a fucking massive retard. Beyond redemption.

>>101588926
It should not be running Arch tho.

>>101588913
debian and pick KDE when it prompts you for a desktop environment to install. i guess

>>101588913
Linux Mint

>>101588913
You could try Arch again but instead install it via EndeavourOS, which is basically a graphical handheld install which gets you up and running in less then an hour.

>Its been a while I don't really remember seashells in demolition man.
it's not a major part, just near the beginning the main char goes to use the toilet, but there's no toilet paper, because future. instead there's a row of three seashells. upon mentioning this to others, they laugh and berate him with "he doesn't know how to use the three seashells!". frustrated, he instead uses the paper fines that are dispensed when cursing as toilet paper
and no, at no point are their purpose explained, their mystery keeps this quote alive

>>101588913
Just use Linux Mint man, it's as easy as it gets.

>>101589032
>and no, at no point are their purpose explained, their mystery keeps this quote alive
They are used to scrape the shit out of your ass. How do I know this? The Ancient Greeks and Romans use to do it, they would also use seashells as a kind of sponge to scrape their skin with water (think of it as a skin shave) instead of using soap.

>>101588913
>Linux Mint
I was a Windows pleb almost 2 or 3 weeks ago but now I'm not.
>Ubuntu
If you don't care about free software and the weird amazon integration, Ubuntu is great for video games if that your main reason your using a computer. There are also a lot of Ubuntu flavors like Kubuntu, Lubuntu, and Xubuntu that you can check out if you don't like Ubuntu
>Manjaro
Manjaro's GUI, I think its the KDE GUI, is very close to windows but Manjaro also seems to suffer from Linux jank because it isn't as well maintained as Mint or Ubuntu.

>>101589063
i don't think that would be practical, for one, they're neatly laid out in a row, like they aren't intended to be moved. for two, there's specifically three of them, reinforced by the local calling them "the three", and for three, if you're going to do that, is a seashell really the ideal shape for this? they could manufacture better tools for it
personally i think they're more likely to be something like touch controls for a bidet of some kind, that are just seashell themed for aesthetics

>>101589109
>i don't think that would be practical, for one, they're neatly laid out in a row, like they aren't intended to be moved.
Just like the Ancient Romans and Greeks did... They were laid in 3 because 3 was a lucky number in Rome and Greece. Why did they lay three out? Because sometimes the shells would cut your ass or break while using them, it was basically a way to "ward" off those kinds of disasters.

>>101588881
Maybe you can change the resolution or find other hints in the Nvidia control panel. Sometimes, scaling can be switched between GPUs and displays opening up new resolutions. That would be something accessible in the control panel.

anon said he tried arch so I think he is a big enough boy to try Manjaro, as long as he wears his safety programming thigh high socks.

When is Ubuntu getting Nvidia 555 driver?

>>101581066
how stable is the ntfs driver in linux? i want to migrate from windows but i currently have a large 4tb drive formatted to ntfs which i cant easily backup anywhere

Out of curiosity, does anyone have a Bruce Perens quote against either selling license exceptions or CLAs? I swear something like that exists, but I cannot find it.

ntfs-3g is like 20 years old in its current form and very reliable. The ntfs3 kernel driver not so much.

What's a good way to just have a folder I can encrypt and decrypt with like a command say? And are there any concerns with the ssd caching stuff and having it recoverable or anything like that?

unfortunately my monitor received new firmware which is only installable through an exe, I only have my linux desktop

how to install monitor firmware with an .exe installer? Is there a quick bootable usb I can make, add the installer onto the bootable usb and install the firmware?
I thought about doing it through WINE, but that kinda scares me.
or should I create a qemu vm?

(here's the firmware if anyone cares, LG support sucks: https://www.lg.com/au/support/product-support/cs-32GS95UE-B.AAU/#manual-tab)

Try WINE, but using Bottles. It's a sandboxed frontend, really simple to set up and test.

Make a HirenBootCD boot USB so you can enter a live Windows environment to run the .exe file.

Does anyone here run GUI-less/Terminal/Console only? What's its like?

>>101590035
>I know it's there because I can see it on windows
It's kinda not, it's not metadata in the filesystem sense of things. It's not hugely advanced feature but it does require one to dig into the individual files.

(idk shit about KDE so I wouldn't know if the feature should be there or not)

In my college days I took notes and code in the tty on my laptop because of slightly longer battery time. With screen or tmux it's easy to set up a basic muti-tasking session, and it doesn't feel that different from using a tiling wm.
The main drawback for me was web-browsing, web-browsing without js and css has its charms but is ultimately very limited.

>>101590382
i would use a tiling WM before going full "gui-less"
>>101590644
i guess if you have battery issues like^ you could use multiple "sessions"?, i think by default to change sessions: ctrl+option+f1/f2/f3/f4...etc
maybe run a lightweight wm on one session, like i3, and nano or whatever on session two? would that save battery life/accomplish what you want?

>>101590382
I tried it and I understood why there's a push to go full CONFIG_VT=n.
Best option you have is run a X session with a terminal opened or cage with a fullscreen wayland terminal.

>>101590635
Well get like a $5 8GB+ Sandisk one off Amazon or something.

>>101590509

$ chmod +x ./my_script.sh
$ ./my_script.sh

>>101590709
>run a lightweight wm on one session
Yeah that was what I did, I start up dwm when I need something done in GUI. At the end of the day there is not much point in limiting yourself to the tty when even things like Emacs work better with a GUI.

what do you want from native encryption that luks cant provide? you can always switch to zfs which does have native encryption

zfs is basically a more mature version of btrfs but there's the obvious out-of-tree kernel module issue that zfs has

Stupid question but how do I install hyprland on arch and steal someone's config

Why does everyone say arch is a hard distro, its only the installation thats a hassle. But maybe its because nothing has broken yet on my system.

>>101591119
It's considered hard because you need to install it manually via tty, that's it really.
Plus these days you can just install Arch with EndeavourOS if you want it done for you or use the built-in archinstall python script.

>>101590035
If you actually added those as NTFS metadata and then copied the files to a Linux partition then it's gone. Linux uses ID3v2 tagging which impacts the content of the file, not separate metadata.

>>101591032
pacman -S hyprland

drop configs in ~/.config/hypr/

>>101591000
>what do you want from native encryption that luks cant provide?
Per-user home encryption (different keys for each subvolume). The current solutions, including systemd-homed, are ugly hacks with their own issues.

>>101590761
It works now, thanks!

>>101591661
That breaks on files with newlines. For something slightly saner, try e.g.

find -maxdepth 1 -type f -printf '%T@ %p\0' | sort -rnz | head -zn1 | cut -d' ' -f2-

or something like that.

Just installed Arch but for some reason os prober isn't detecting my windows installation which is on a seperate SSD in my laptop. Is this normal? How can I make it detect Windows on the other SSD? Yes I've already uncommented ob prober false in grub settings and I've updated it too, I changed the timeout settings too so I know it's working.

>>101592350
Is the ext4 implementation with fscrypt not good enough? I set that up once and it worked pretty well

What's the point of replacing SteamOS with Bazzite? Some people do it.

>>101592685
I don't use ext4 because I heavily use some btrfs features (mainly snapshots).

>>101592504
Also both installations are in uefi mode.

>>101592702
don't use grub, it's shit. use systemd-boot (aka efibootmgr)

>>101592504
>>101592702
>>101592750
forgot to add: use bios to select your boot drive (so windows updates doesn't fuck your shit up)

>>101592700
Ah fair enough
I think lvm has snapshots as well if you do ext4 ontop of lvm but i've never used it

>>101581066
What does @ mean in a subvolume? I see it in some distros or in posts but I searched the documentation and found nothing. I made /root and /home on mine.

>>101592782
Read The Friendly Manual. btrfs is the kind of thing where you really shouldn't just go on word of mouth.
