burrito,

I can’t believe they’re up to 40. I remember installing Fedora Core 1 like it was yesterday. Yum (and now dnf) has come a long way. It used to have to individually retrieve metadata files for every available package, rather than using a single compressed index of all the packages available in the repository you were using. It made just getting to the stage where dependencies were calculated take forever.

burrito,

And the units should be consistent. It drives me nuts when I’m in a store and the unit varies across different sizes of the same product.

burrito,

Turns per roll on one brand, grams per inch for the next, and ounces per half-roll for your third choice.

burrito,

Good riddance.

Help with HDD

I have a 4TB HDD that I use to store music, films, images, and text files. I have a 250GB SDD that I use to install my OS and video games. So far I didn’t have any problem with this setup, obviously it’s a bit slower when it reads the HDD but nothing too serious, but lately it’s gotten way worse, where it just lags too...

burrito,

A bad SATA cable will cause this too.

burrito,

I have a Brother MFC-L8900CDW and it works great for printing and scanning on Linux (I use Arch BTW). I use SANE for scanning. You can also set it up to scan to a Samba share or ftp location.

burrito,

Any SANE front-end will do. I usually use xsane.

burrito,

I don’t do much scanning, perhaps 5 times a year, and it’s sufficient for my needs. I can definitely see how it leaves gaps if you do a ton of scanning.

burrito,

I’m pretty sure the Linux support was on day one. I was running Linux back then and played it quite a bit and it worked great.

burrito,

I dumped Chase over a decade ago for a local credit union. It was a great decision. Jamie Dimon can burn in hell.

burrito,

Definitely not from the team working on search on Windows then.

burrito,

They didn’t make it the default until 2021 fedoramagazine.org/announcing-fedora-34/

burrito,

Add carbon steel pans to that list of safer pans.

burrito,

Keep bugging them. I almost exclusively use signal for messaging these days and it’s fantastic. It took longer to convince some people than others

burrito,

Not with modern package management systems. In the pacutils package is the pacrepairfile tool that is specifically made for repairing file permissions man.archlinux.org/man/pacrepairfile.1

burrito,

Use the pacrepairfile utility and you can set them to the distro shipped permissions easily man.archlinux.org/man/pacrepairfile.1

[SOLVED] I can't change my /home location, and it's driving me mad

For the past week, I’ve been trying to switch my /home partition from my 500GB nvme to my 1TB sata ssd. I’ve been asking and receiving help from people in my previous post, but I keep hitting wall after wall in making it work and I seem to be missing a step....

burrito, (edited )

Here’s your issue. Your selinux contexts are bad so you’re probably being denied access to your own data. To reset the contexts back to normal you can use the restorecon command:


<span style="color:#323232;">restorecon -Rv /home/
</span>

The -R tells it to go through the specified path recursively, the v tells it to be verbose in the output and show you what it’s doing.

burrito,

Awesome! Enjoy!

burrito,

I used to have to occasionally run this but I’d say it has been at least a couple of years since I last had to. I was a pretty early adopter of pipewire because it solved some Bluetooth issues that pulseaudio had. It has improved immensely since I first started using it.

burrito,

Oh did it get better? I tried it back in the day and had a hard time getting into it.

burrito,

Cool, thanks for the write up. Maybe I’ll install it and give it another try. I have tried it a couple of times and it has been quite a while since my last attempt. It definitely was the combat system I had difficulty with.

A RULE SPY'S IN THE BASE?! (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I searched up “Lemmy” on the PlayStore and noticed that Reddit appears right before the last lemmy client in that search X3 do u guys know if there r any other lemmy clients worth trying? I randomly felt like trying all I could find and for now I’ll stay on Jerboa and the Web UI but I use Voyager too now, mainly for DMs...

burrito,

The dev hasn’t updated it in a bit and it’s getting more broken for me, especially with loading certain image types. I did pay for ad free on it when it came out but I’m starting to get a bit frustrated with the issues lately.

burrito,

fuckspez

burrito,

I hope the Nude Raider mod gets updated too.

Control - the first game to get me to turn on cheats in decades

I finished Control last week, likely the best game to marry a creepy funhouse with a sprawling government office that you’ll ever play. I was up and down on this one for a few months. There’s a fun narrative and plenty of atmosphere, but I wasn’t always enjoying the gameplay....

burrito,

I started playing Control a couple of weeks ago and I’ve found it to be a lot of fun so far. I’m currently at the power plant so I may not be to the frustrating point yet. I definitely see your point about getting lost. Even with all the signs and the map it can be difficult to navigate at times, though it is becoming a bit easier as I am more familiar with navigating the game.

I am about to reach that point with Resident Evil 4 (2023). I’m at one of the first levels in the village and I’ve spent probably two hours trying to get past this one level, only to die every attempt so far. I think I’m up to at least ten attempts now and it’s driving me nuts.
