What do you mean men are growing beards “again”? I haven’t noticed any trend between clean shaven / bearded. Some do, some don’t.

@Amputret@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Yeah, beards have been common since at least the ‘hipster/lumbersexual’ memes which were about 2008 or so. There’s not been any particular drop off since then. It’s just accepted that some people prefer or look better with a beard.

scops ,

Yeah, I haven’t been clean shaven since I could first pull off a beard. Last time I saw my naked face was 15 years ago.

That said, I have started to put more effort into my beard to try to keep up with trends. Growing it out, oiling it, shaping the edges. It’s fun, but I still find myself trimming it down after too long just to make it easier to manage.

Zeroc00l ,

What oil are you using? Hands down the best stuff I have ever tried is from a small New Zealand brand called Lambert’s Luscious Beard Oils. I started getting compliments at work after switching to that stuff.

octopus_ink ,

I’m at least six years in on my current beard. Many others before that.

KDE and GNOME have that built in. You can add it via webdav to nautilus or gnome-files

In GNOME you just need to log in with your Nextcloud account in the system settings and it will add it in the file manager

It has nothing to do with anti-semitism to call Netanyahu an genocidal nazi shit.

But no, seriously, there’s a big book of insults that actually fit Netanyahu. Genocidal maniac. Baby killer. Warmonger. Neocolonialist. The list goes on and on. Trying to fit the label “Nazi” on a Jew is a fool’s errand.

The US House of Representatives just passed a bill that can make calling Jewish people nazis a hate crime.

@AnarchoBolshevik@lemmygrad.ml avatar

When referring to Jewish neocolonists, you mean. Surely nobody is going to get in trouble for referring to anticolonial Jews as ‘Kapos’ or whatnot, which I have seen much too often.

Facebones ,

It will soon, the bill passed the house that adds “comparing Israel to Nazis” to the official antisemitic hate speech list - but according to a friend (been out of town and busy to read it myself) it’s worded to cover basically any criticism of Israel.

The point is once its added the department of education can pull funding, accreditation, etc from any schools that “allow antisemitic speech or actions (aka protests)”

cron , to selfhosted in [solved] Using Nextcloud as a directory/folder/remote location

Have you tried the official Nextcloud desktop app?

Successful_Try543 ,

That would not be equivalent to ‘remote location’, as the files would be stored locally on your computer and being synced with the cloud.

Dalraz ,

The nextcloud client has the option to setup the folder as a virtual folder. this wouldn’t sync the files locally but would download them on first access, kind of like how OneDrive works. Would this not work for OP or did I miss read

cron ,

TBH, the description in the original post is not very clear.

archer OP ,

I think this is it but I can’t find this option in the settings.

archer OP ,

OK so I managed to enable it! :) Thanks for everyone suggestions.

If you have the same issue and find this thread later: on a regular install, open /home/yourusername/.config/Nextcloud/nextcloud.cfg with a text editor. On flatpak, open /home/yourusername/.var/app/com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud/config/Nextcloud/nextcloud.cfg. Add the line showExperimentalOptions=true under the general section. Restart Nextcloud desktop and delete the current synchronization destionation. Readd it and you’ll see the option to use virtual files. Confirm that it’s experimental and you’re done.

archer OP ,

I did but that’s only syncing one folder if I’m not mistaken. I want to see everything though and if I make changes to files these changes should be synced back to the cloud.

cron ,

That’s exactly what the nextcloud desktop app does.

archer OP ,

Maybe I’m using the wrong one? Mine just sits in the task bar and displays the sync status and “helpful” app recommendations. I want to see the files though (in Dolphin for example)…

archer OP ,

I figured I might have a wrong version or something so I went ahead and grabbed the one off of flathub, but that’s the same one. It syncs everything to one folder on the disk but only until the disk is full. I kinda wanted something like iCloud that would show everthing but only download on demand (so it doesn’t take up all the space).

Shaving takes less time than keeping it tidy, at least for me.

sab , to asklemmy in Why are many men growing beards again ?

Full beards are great. I can go a week without any maintenance and still look presentable. Any other style of facial hair is just too much effort.

Coreidan ,

It’s a lot less presentable than you think. Reality is people aren’t going to saying anything because they don’t want to be rude.

Black_Char ,

It's completely presentable and you thinking it's not is your own opinion. Beards will always be a thing. They grow on our faces and we don't have control other than shaving. Idk about you but I am a man. My facial hair is coarse and I have sensitive skin. If I were to shave everyday like society wants me to I'd have razor burn and rashes all over my face. What's more acceptable some facial hair? Or open wounds on my face?

Also beards went away for several reasons, Off the top of my head I can think of 2.

  1. WWII and gas masks. Facial hair was causing gas masks to have gaps and not work properly, which is when the military enacted their facial hair rules.
  2. JFK vs Nixon debates were aired on TV nationally. When this happened people liked the way JFK looked clean shaven because at the time even a 5 o'clock shadow would make you look "dirty". So the ceos and corporations adopted that and made it a work place standard.

Beards are acceptable, beards are natural, and i find it's really only those who are jealous they can't grown one that have issues.

Alk ,

That is the wildest take I’ve ever heard. Full beards can be presentable, professional and clean. A beard goes with a suit like peanut butter goes with jelly.

rtxn , to selfhosted in [solved] Using Nextcloud as a directory/folder/remote location

I haven’t tried, but you might be able to set up a samba share that points to /var/www/nextcloud-data/USER/files, just make sure that it uses the www-data user.

RandomLegend ,
@RandomLegend@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

This is way too overkill, simply use WebDAV

rambos ,

Yeah, that will work. It sounds like answer to OPs question, but I have no clue why would someone need that unless there is no client app for that device.

VonReposti ,

Nextcloud won’t be able to recognise new files if you do it that way. A full scan will be needed before they’ll show up in the web app.

I mean, they were never out in Afghanistan. I think we have to confine discussion to the West here, where I assume OP lives.

You could go back to the 19th century in America, but beards were definitely out from the 1920s to 60s. IIRC it was chemical warfare that killed the beard, because they don’t fit under a gas mask, and dudes all want to look like a tough guy. After that, the counterculture brought them back for people involved. I’m less clear on post-Cold-War trends.

So many men think they look sexy with a beard.

Trim and wash it properly or shave it off.
Facial hair is such a turn off.

Especially when most dudes growing beards look like they have public hair growing out of their face. They look ridiculous.

I think they’ve given up on trying to get laid.

Many men do look sexier with a beard. For some men it helps with obscuring a recessed chin and giving a ‘stronger’ shape.

My personal preference is when men have bit of scruff imo. Like a week of growth with a full mustache. Obviously people like you dislike beards but everyone has their opinions.

I have a closely cropped beard. I grew it in the pandemic just to see if I could. It didn't look too bad and my wife didn't object so I kept it. Beats shaving every day.

Beards are so itchy and annoying I’d rather just shave.
