mvirts,

Most of that information is actually publicly available.

Stuff like this www.usaspending.gov/search/?hash=624182a957cfea14…

mvirts,

Lmao good ol gnome used to work great, which is why i recommend xfce :P

mvirts,

I honestly thought your washing machine was throwing the MCE when i opened the post 😹

mvirts,

Does it do the same thing every time? Is there a working bios or uefi menu?

mvirts,

Maybe try diabling microcode updates on boot?

you can use dis_ucode_ldr kernel parameter according to the debian wiki:

wiki.debian.org/Microcode#Working around boot pro…

i would think microcode is checked for corruption before loading, but thats just an assumption.

mvirts,

If apt wont remove it, try using dpkg

baeldung.com/…/apt-uninstall-dpkg-deb-package

if it doesnt work you may get a better idea whats going on.

mvirts,

Maybe a better title would have included “from 2009 to 2011”

mvirts,

Peppermint butthole forever

mvirts,

Pretty sure you can brick your system real quick using efivarfs

docs.kernel.org/filesystems/efivarfs.html

some systems dont let you write but some do.

Theres a similar system i was messing with to read and write the firmware code… reading through this may be informative.

efivars should let your change any bios/uefi settings if thats what youre looking for.

mvirts,

Gitlab is out, forgejoe is in

Janus, a simple text editor

For the past few months I have been working on a simple windows notepad like text editor. It’s nothing special, but when I first switched to linux I looked around and it took me a while to find leafpad. Unlike leafpad however, Janus uses gtk3, a much more modern toolkit then gtk2, it can display and modify binary data, and it...

Stopping a badly behaved bot the wrong way.

I host a few small low-traffic websites for local interests. I do this for free - and some of them are for a friend who died last year but didn’t want all his work to vanish. They don’t get so many views, so I was surprised when I happened to glance at munin and saw my bandwidth usage had gone up a lot....

mvirts,

Beaurocracy is a potent evil

mvirts,

Could also be a bad update that broke grub, the smart data will show if your drive is dying

mvirts,

Dont forget to play around with grub while its like this. Tab completion works great, try ‘(’ the press tab to maybe see your disks as grub sees them. I think help lists commands and most of them are harmless.

mvirts,

… more like how to test a package by installing it, with nix???

Just becausr the install is independant and garbagre collectable doesnt mean its not installed.

mvirts, (edited )

Yes try this if you want to find your partition.

maybe not the best guide, but you can start doing partition recovery here

mvirts,

Terrible 🙃

Impressive, but terrible.

mvirts,

1 - This sounds really stupid, but check the recycle bin on both drives 😅 it is windows after all.

2 - turn off photorec paranoid mode, only check for formts you actually want, and sort the output by size to look for actual files you want.

3 - try checking total file size to see if the files were moved not deleted

mvirts,

Have you tried recovery on the old drive? If the new smaller drive was completely full after deletion recovery is not possible

mvirts,

Oh how the turn tables

mvirts,

Makes me want to build a combo ethernet usba socket

mvirts,

Looks like some generative ai training data

mvirts,

I thought && only proceeded to the next statement if the first did not crash

mvirts,

Ffffork it dead. Needs a better name anyway.

Wireless wifi is not working after chroot rescue on Arch Linux.

So basically I stupidly tried to update while my thinkpad had low battery and it powered off halfway through the update. The system wouldn’t boot because it was complaining that vm-linuz/linux was not found so I performed a chroot-rescue and got it to boot again. I must have messed something up during the process because now...

mvirts,

no need to reinstall, a running system is always fixable, if you need networking try wired ethernet with a usb dongle or a usb wifi adapter or bluetooth/usb tethering to a phone

maybe start by running pacman -Syu again, in case it magically fixes itself.

Check dmesg for wifi related errors

figure out what wifi device you have and what kernel drivers support it

check that the driver module is available, try loading it manually with modprobe

reinstall relevant kernel modules. Hopefully this will fix whatever is wrong.

Hotspot Wi-Fi connected to my laptop works without connected to mobile data. What could be the reason? (lemm.ee)

Title is self explanatory. For background, I am currently running Asahi Linux on my M1 MBP. Whenever I connected the hotspot without data being turned on, it somehow still worked like any regular wifi. I even ran several updates in the system and downloaded multiple apps in this wifi, which I find it amusing. But out of...

mvirts,

Yeah my phone does this

mvirts,

Great time to mention tools like testdisk that can easily recover data that has been recently deleted on common filesystems.

mvirts,

I dont think so… you can use it to set up deleted paritions again afaik but thats all that i know of.

mvirts,

I would avoid fractional scaling in general

mvirts,

Blame the oems, dell ships dell OS with windows branding.

mvirts,

The invention of blenders would have brought about a global obesity crisis if they werent immediately stigmatized as a sign of dental disfunction.

mvirts,

na the watchdog just got too hungry (could still be bad???). I think you’d get an mce if you cpu is failing but bootable.

mvirts,

is it always cpu 2? Can you disable that core in your bios?

mvirts,

I love everything about this screenshot

mvirts,

Does changing screen resokution fix it?

mvirts,

ALL ABOARD!

they heard as the conduct door took one last look at the platform.

mvirts,

different math 🙃

mvirts, (edited )

Hmm i would start by removing all nonessential peripherals, reseating the ram and running memtest. Looks like init crashed. also I would check that your kernel and system arent built for cpu features not available on that chip.

does the machine boot any other os?

edit: missed the last bit

Maybe dig up an old iso from when the machine was new

mvirts,

this points to maybe updating your bios

mvirts,

Ubuntu was basically just polished debian back then, i would give this a try

old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/intrepid/

but im pretty convinced its the bios, i couldnt find any reason the e4600 woild crash modern linux.

mvirts,

😹 i assume it worked?

mvirts,

📱

mvirts,

Dont forget to blow on it

mvirts,

Is your qcow2 image backed by another image?

Have you tried qemu-image check with -r for repair?

wiki.polaire.nl/doku.php?id=kvm_repair_qcow2

mvirts,

I dare say, the last time i used an awt app was years ago. Im glad its there but eclipse really is being eclipsed by the infathomable horror that is electron based “editors”.
