  • I run Debian 12 and ran into similar issues trying to automount NFS, even down to having to use an alternative console to log in and undo f stab edits

    My solution was simple and so hopefully it helps you as well. In fstab, the backslashes don't cancel out spaces. Since my directory path had a space in it, that would break fstab:

    Path/to/your/Video\ Files breaks fstab

    Path/to/your/VideoFiles good

  • I've got a ton, most are already listed or along the same vein.

    The two suggestions I have are not actual aliases but worth remembering:

    • Ctrl + Alt + E - turn your alias into its original command
    • - Place before your alias to run the original command's meaning. Useful if you overwrite a default command (overwriting default commands is not recommended though... often the alias will ignore any options passed through and so let's say you overwrite rm with another app that deletes files, then you forget that, and then try to delete some files using rm-i to get a prompt for each removed file. Often the alias will just operate as normal w/o a prompt saying that it ignored -i completely)
  • Definitely feels reminiscent of the "Leopards Eating People's Faces Party" joke. They've been increasingly antagonistic towards their own customers regarding the efficiency of search and numerous other pipelines. It shouldn't come as a huge surprise that they are also being dicks to their own employees

  • Perhaps a better way to put it is acknowledging that I'm not actively rooting for a genocide. With that off the table, I struggled to grasp where a Trump administration would handle the situation differently, let alone better. My primary goal is the end of the war, and my secondary goal is avoiding continued escalation. Given how hawkish Trump's administration can be regarding brown people and minorities in general, I don't expect them to have a markedly different perspective from the Israel contingent

  • Suburbs tend to be more progressive than exburbs which are more progressive than a city in Boomfuck, Kansas. I think that controlling for your personal environment might lead to a more objective perspective of the world https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_bias?lang=en

  • My guess is also choosing the wrong distro and/or the stress of having to reconfigure your digital life.

    Most people are coming from being on a PC/Mac for +10 years and so it feels inefficient for the first month or so until you get the hang of things. I legit had a checklist of +20 tweaks to make to my env to make it more to my liking. The joys and frustrations of choosing KDE as my intro DE almost drowned me but I made it to the other side.
