They’re not the good guys browser wise, they’re just slightly less shitty than Google, which was (still is probably?) their biggest customer.
Are you talking about the claim that he endangered CIA agents? That was just some bullshit they cooked up to get him on, and I don’t think anybody even claimed that somebody actually died.
Imagine thinking exposing the CIA should be a crime, because the poor small beans CIA agents need protection. Who wouldn’t want to protect imperial blackmailers, hit men, weapons smugglers and death squad commanders?
You are the traitor for siding with the oppressor.
Very weird, I can think of some things I might check:
It is possible that you have files on disk that don’t have a filename anymore. This can happen when a file gets deleted while it is still opened by some process. Only the filename is gone then, but the file still exist until that process gets killed. If this were the problem, it would go away if you rebooted, since that kills all processes.
Maybe it is file system corruption. Try running fsck.
Maybe the files are impossible to see for baobab. Like if you had gigs of stuff under (say) /home
on you root fs, then mount another partition as /home
over that, those files would be hidden behind the mount point. Try booting into a live usb and checking your disk usage from there, when nothing is mounted except root.
If you have lots and lots of tiny files, that can in theory use up a lot more disk space than the combined size of the files would, because on a lot file systems, small files always use up some minimum amount of space, and each file also has some metadata. This would show up as some discrepancy between du
and df
output. For me, df --inodes /
shows ~300000 used, or about 10% of total. Each file, directory, symlink etc. should require one inode, I think.
I have never heard of baobab, maybe that program is buggy or has some caveats. Does du -shx /
give the same results?
Like this?
#!/bin/sh
set -eu
name_from_desc() {
LANG=C pactl list sinks \
| awk 'BEGIN {FS=": "} /Name:/ {name=$2} /Description:/ {print name, ":", $2}' \
| while IFS=' : ' read name desc; do
if [ "$desc" = "$1" ]; then echo "$name"; fi
done
}
id_from_name() {
pw-cli i "$1" | awk '/id:/ {print $2}'
}
ret=$(LANG=C pactl list sinks | awk 'BEGIN {FS=": "} /Description:/ {print $2}' | tofi)
wpctl set-default $(id_from_name $(name_from_desc "$ret"))
I don’t get how that case statement of yours is even supposed to work. I’m pretty sure that’s just a syntax error. I guess you want to map from description to name? But that’s not remotely what that does.
I’m still skeptical. At the time of the original Pentium (the last 586 from Intel, the fastest of which was 300 MHz), the usual amount of RAM was something like 16 or 32 MB. A 586 with 1 GB of RAM is extremely weird and probably impossible unless it’s some sort of high-end server. This does not check out.
Oh and DDR is also from around the time of the Pentium 4. I don’t think there exists a machine that has both DDR and an original Pentium (aka 586). Again, this does not check out and is probably impossible.
There could be another reason it won’t boot.
Are you sure it’s not a 686? Because apparently the Pentium Pro from 1995 is already a 686, by 2001 the Pentium 4 was already out.
This seems to work with regular Proton these days, it’s even SteamDeck verified.
I used unstable for years (don’t anymore). It broke itself in minor and major ways every couple of months. Maybe it wouldn’t boot or X wouldn’t start, or the package dependencies were broken and I couldn’t install certain packages for a couple of days. Stuff like that.
You will have manually to fix these things from time to time, or do a workaround (like manually downgrading certain packages), or wait a week so stuff gets sorted. Most of the time it works fine though. I imagine the experience is somewhat similar to running arch.
You do not get security fixes, but it’s not a massive problem usually, since you’ll get the newest version of most software after a couple of days (occasionally longer) after it is released.
Anyway do not recommend unless you want to be a beta tester. I did report bugs sometimes, but almost always by the time I encountered an issue, it was already reported and a fix was already in the works.
I have never used the Steam beta or Proton-GE or whatever information is spreading out there to noobs about what they should do, and I’ve been gaming exclusively on Linux for more than 20 years. Only do this beta or bleeding edge stuff if you have a problem, and a good reason to believe that will help (like people reporting your specific issue is fixed in beta). Or I guess if you’re bored out of your mind. And expect other issues since it’s fucking beta.
I don’t expect anybody is trying to jailbreak phones that have an official way to unlock them, even if it is very annoying.
Maybe it’s fine with now, but I looked into a Ryzen Thinkpad a couple of years ago and Linux users reported problems with something (maybe power management?).
I haven’t kept up with all the various lines they’re up to now, but that looks about right. Also obviously doesn’t hurt to google the exact model. Someone I know got an old tabletty Thinkpad with a touchscreen (don’t know what model) and on that one the webcam doesn’t work on Linux, so something like that can happen.
Not all Thinkpads work equally well. For the best experience, get an all-Intel one, from one of the more expensive business lines, like the T-series. Consumer models are definitely worse, because employees of big Linux-using tech firms are getting the pro models.
You can set the default brightness in mpv in ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf
like this:
brightness=-10
Look in the manpage (man mpv
) for other settings. I think any option like --brightness=-10
can also be put into mpv.conf
by removing the --
at the beginning.
I don’t know if there’s a way to make mpv autosave this.
This looks good.
I don’t know how to figure out on vlc what sort of output method, codec, or hardware acceleration it’s currently using, so I second the other person who recommended mpv.
Can you check what video driver you are using? You might be on some kind of software renderer.
What does
glxinfo | grep renderer
say?
Input/output error is very weird, maybe you got file corruption?
Does dmesg
show any errors with the disk or file system?
If you run
sudo strace -e t=read -e status=failed --decode-fds apt-get update
you might be able to figure which file it is that cannot be read.
Because HTTP is simpler, faster, easier, more reliable.
The motivation for a a lot of p2p is to make it harder to shut down, but there is no danger of that for Linux distros. The other would be to save money, but Debian/Arch/etc. get more than enough bandwidth/server donations, so they’re not paying for that anyway.
I mean general advice with potential hardware issues is remove as much hardware as possible, and see if the problem still exists. If it does, swap components one-by-one until you find the faulty component.
Since this seems to a sporadic problem, it would probably help to try find a way to trigger the problem more reliably. Maybe write a script that writes random files constantly, or something like that.
