I get that, but if it's the only place something exists, it might be your only option and I was just tossing it out there so people knew it was available.

You probably want to step back and look at the output of your find command. That is where your difference is coming from. The printf is giving you just the files, while the non-printf line is giving you the folder name first. When I am usually doing something like this, I will send the output of the find command to a file, and then use that file as the input for the tar command. That gives me a chance to take a look at the files that are going to be tarred up. In output 2, you are getting your base folder included in the tar file, which as you have noticed, you may or may not want. You are also getting different data as you have -maxdepth=1 on your find command.

Edit: So I may not have explained what you were asking about. The implication here is that you will have to be careful where you untar this file based on whether or not you want your "testar" folder laid down when it's untarred. I noticed that you are also getting duplicates in your output 2 tar file, because you are feeding it the folder, and then the folder contents. So it tars up the folder and then you come after that and feed it the files contained in the folders.

Especially when some dumbass app starts writing log files to /opt.

Just want to point out that you can download audio from a Youtube video using yt-dlp and the following options:

        -x, --extract-audio                               Convert video files to audio-only files (requires ffmpeg and
                                                      ffprobe)
    --audio-format FORMAT                             Format to convert the audio to when -x is used. (currently
                                                      supported: best (default), aac, alac, flac, m4a, mp3, opus,
                                                      vorbis, wav). You can specify multiple rules using similar syntax
                                                      as --remux-video
    --audio-quality QUALITY                           Specify ffmpeg audio quality to use when converting the audio with
                                                      -x. Insert a value between 0 (best) and 10 (worst) for VBR or a
                                                      specific bitrate like 128K (default 5)


  

You might have to use a tool to re-do the tags, but that's pretty easy to do. Edit: also want to point out that yt-dlp also works with a number of other sites besides Youtube.

Thanks. I might have to ask about that.

Aww. Thanks. Yes, I can't watch when I have blood work done. I don't get much sleep the night before, and while I am pretty sure I don't have anxiety, I think I had an anxiety attack the last cat scan I had. They had to try a second time to get the iv in, and I went into full meltdown mode. Pretty sure I know what event in my life caused this, and there's nothing I can do about it now. I have tried lots of things, keeping my mind occupied, headphones, breathing, it's all out the window the minute they start wiping my arm with the alcohol. I know it's irrational, and it hurts more to sub your toe, but something in my brain just goes apeshit when the needles come out. It really sucks.

I had a Sony 1x burner with scsi connector. I still have some new 1x cdr's somewhere. I remember my work buying a box of them at what I recall were $20/disc. A box of 100 was a serious chunk of change. And even at 1x I had to have a dedicated pc to burn them. Nothing else could be running especially a screensaver, and if the stream of data was interrupted you had a nice new coaster.

“well this will last me forever!”

Same exact thing we said when we got our Atari 800 up to 64K of memory.

Pretty sure I still have the zip drive. It has a scsi connector, but pretty sure there's a scsi card in there somewhere too. They were only popular for a small slice of time. Just like those mini tape drives with the cartridges that were about the size of a tictac container. I probably have that too.

I have the same fear. Watching the news during covid was horrible.

Definitely stick with linux... LOL.

Just want to say Good Luck and we're all counting on you!

Because they can retroactively undo their fuckups.

That is the numeric representation of rwxr-xr-x permissions. It's 3 bits wide, and 4 = r, 2 = w, and 1 = x. So you add them together. 7=rwx, 5=r-x. If you wanted just read only, you would use 4. And of course 0 mean no permissons. And the bits are ordered by Owner, Group, and Everyone. 755 mean owner has full permissions, group and everyone can read and see the directory since it has x.

My uneducated guess here is that the id number for adelie has changed. Continue with this login, and then:

sudo chown -R adelie:adelie /home/adelie

Then logout and back in to see if the new /home/adelie is set to the correct id.

Yeah, kids, this is the public facing internet. If you dox yourself and have said comments you wouldn't say out loud to someone, it could come back to haunt you. Be careful out there.

Narrator: Newsflash, it's never truly "deleted".

I too am a people. Bleep blop bloop.

I think you are mistaking publicly available with public. Just because reddit made everyone's posts publicly available doesn't mean they are public. Once you post something, they have the right to use that data in any way they choose, and you agreed to that when you signed up. Per their user agreement:

"You retain any ownership rights you have in Your Content, but you grant Reddit the following license to use that Content:

When Your Content is created with or submitted to the Services, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, copy, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works of, distribute, store, perform, and display Your Content and any name, username, voice, or likeness provided in connection with Your Content in all media formats and channels now known or later developed anywhere in the world. This license includes the right for us to make Your Content available for syndication, broadcast, distribution, or publication by other companies, organizations, or individuals who partner with Reddit. You also agree that we may remove metadata associated with Your Content, and you irrevocably waive any claims and assertions of moral rights or attribution with respect to Your Content."

Because they allow anyone to see the posts doesn't make it "public" data, it just means that they are allowing you access to the data they now have a license to. Now lets say you work for a state agency. Any work you do is property of said state and is public. I believe the same goes for some government agencies, like NASA. The work they produce is public. That's completely different than reddit allowing you to post on their platform and then allowing others to see your post. They can do whatever they want with the data, including turning it off one day and just sitting on it if they wanted. Expecting anything public from a private company, well good luck with that. Back to lemmy, well even if you blocked all AI from scraping from an instance, nothing would stop a company from just setting up their own instance, federating it, and just sucking up all the info as it comes in. Nothing you post on here will ever be private.

I think people are about to learn a hard lesson on the internet. Nothing is ever private if it is online.
