File sharing / storage via SSH, Minecraft server.

notepadqq in Linux

Thanks - Bookmark time !!

When I run lsblk with no flags/parameters I get 18 lines of loop devices. Sure I could issue the command again and pipe thru grep to remove all the lines that have "snap" since I forgot to do it this time. I propose "snap" because couldn't I have non snap-related loop devices?

You can thin out the obsolete ISOs and have well-used tools like DBAN, a partition editor, Clonezilla, etc. Make some of the ISOs live distributions and you have a way to repair a failed installation.

Lsblk suffers too.

Is there a community for users of FreeDOS?

Good - my daily driver workstation is an i7 laptop running Kubuntu (auto correct wants me to run base Ubuntu ).

Cool - I probably won't be using it on my Android phone. I keep it regularly copied to my workstation.

Thanks!

Will I be able to just launch Tailscale as a part of my normal startup? Can Tailscale start 'invisibly' that is without any interaction from me as I turn on and login?

rsync:

    ~~~
#! /usr/bin/sh


TIMESTAMP_LOG="/path/to/logdir/.backuplog"
BACKUP_DEST="server:/path/to/backup/$1"
TIMESTAMP=$(date +"%Y-%m-%d %H:$M:%S")

echo "backup to:$BACKUP_DEST"
echo "Backup: $BACKUP_DEST $TIMESTAMP" >> $TIMESTAMP_LOG
pause
rsync -auvh /path/to/homedir* rhudson@$BACKUP_DEST
~~~
  

This should be called with a name of a target subdirectory in BACKUP_DEST.. mine are rsynca, rsyncb, rsyncc but I will change this soon for day of week based directories.

I also have certificate authentication setup on ssh on my server - that's why no password is needed.

Someday I will set up tailscale between this machine and the server.

Every time I have asked chatgpt to code for me it has come up with almost correct nonsense. When issues in the code are pointed out, chatgpt generates new code fixing the issue and creating two more new ones. Some of the issues are using features found in other languages in the language requested.

Programmers - your jobs are not in danger. It will take a programmer to check any generated code really carefully and be sure to understand what the AI has spewed forth.

For something as simple as hello world it would get it right. For creating a function to print numbers with imbedded "," commas (to show powers of 10^3 separation) it got it wrong. It gave a program that returned "123,4567.89"

Actually, if most states passed it the police could not use the process of elimination. Especially if the mix included both Women's rights states and Woman pressing states.

Unless this is enacted in every state, law enforcement can deduce the state a person of interest is in just by not getting location data for them.

I use the "being able to detach and re-attach" capability to run my Minecraft server on my in-home server box.

And there are so many laws that it is impossible to know all the laws that apply in any given moment. Basically, you always have -something- to hide.

I once heard that "Anyone can be charged with a crime if they can be watched closely enough for long enough."

Here is a related question - when I was writing random or zeros to the raw device (/dev/sda) I was getting speeds of 1.7 or so mb / s now I am getting 25 mb/s writing to a file in the partition.

Why the difference?
