alias fuck=‘sudo $(fc -ln -1)’

xavier666 ,

Just use sudo !!

demonsword ,
@demonsword@lemmy.world avatar

yeah, I could do that. Kinda prefer to use my alias anyway as the expletive is almost always the first word that comes to mind when I forget to sudo something

xavier666 ,

Can’t argue with that but it reminds me of thefuck which is similar but does more

thanks for that link!! I’m going to try it out :)

Chobbler , (edited ) in which linux podcasts do you listen to?
@Chobbler@feddit.uk avatar

Late Night Linux and all the shows Joe puts out, Linux Unplugged, Self Hosted, Bad Voltage and Grumpy Old Geeks (Not Linux based but still pretty good) Fabian from Linux Outlaws does a decent security / privacy based podcast now called The Private Citizen and Dan does Tales of the Unattested although it’s been 10 months since Dan put a show out.

theshatterstone54 ,

Self Hosted Recently had a Lemmy Episode!

Marrenia , in Suggestions/feedback on U.S. providers - Librecloud

You can always get a hetzner auction server with spinning disks and get like 8 tb for like 37ish bucks if you are lucky

Adonnen OP ,

I’ve seen some very negative feedback about Hetzner, and my needs are much smaller. I really only need a terabyte, and I can’t afford more than around $15 a month, especially if I cannot install software.

Marrenia ,

I’ve had no issues running with hetzner, and of course you can install software on a hetzner server? You have full root access to the server… Well buyvm is a good option too if you can snag one - get a 3.50 a month vps and get a 5 dollar storage slice for 1 tb of storage on it is a good option and it’s cheaper than librecloud and you get a whole server

hoogs , in Why do we need tiling window managers when we have tmux?

I use both 🤷‍♀️

mranderson17 , in Why do we need tiling window managers when we have tmux?

Because I don’t like things to be behind other things. And I feel like moving windows around is a waste of effort and time, and also requires using the mouse where I wouldn’t normally have to. Tiling windows and using workspaces to organize my work/play/attention works very well for me and helps keep my focus where I want it.

Also sway in particular, but other tiling window managers too, have better output management than standard DEs. If I’m on output 3 workspace 12 and I want to do something new, any new window I open stays on output 3 workspace 12. I have a lot of displays and not being surprised about where windows open is extremely helpful.

Mount_Linux , in Ubuntu trying to install snap AND Firefox even though I have removed them a year back

I’m hearing and feeling the bad vibes towards Ubuntu, but they’ve not done anything to totally ruffle my feathers just yet. I went full Ubuntu with about 10 servers and 2 desktops. I don’t mind snaps, but my senses are heightened after the red hat shebackle, so considered a next move in case Ubuntu disappoints me with these enterprise decisions. I’m happy to accept an immutable distro like they have planned, but with snaps being proprietary what would that make the distro? Hmm. Do I need to reconsider snaps?

I heard canonical took lxd in house, however I thought it was canonical anyway, and i use lxd a lot, so I’m concerned there’s a play they are going to make… If the red hat thing never happened, I’d probably not have had much concern, but… Red hat thing did happen, and so did reddit. Anyway, hopefully it’s just a little paranoia from recent events. 😬

xavier666 OP ,

Canonical is a company, so they have their own direction which might not be aligned with a chunk of the community. I can understand and respect that. What irks me is that they are trying to force something upon their user.

I don’t hate Ubuntu; I still recommend it to new users. But decisions like this is making me reconsider that stance.

jaykstah , in Why do we need tiling window managers when we have tmux?

For most people using a tiling window manager is something they want for their whole user experience, not just for tiling terminals haha

SchizoRamblings , in Why do we need tiling window managers when we have tmux?

You can basically have a “full” desktop environment with hyprland+nwg-panel+7 other programs, I’m not sure why nobody has distributed something like this preconfigured though. I’m planning on cooking one up.

It’s called GNU Emacs and it’s been distributed for decades now.

I maybe steal your rust aliases What is bacon by the way?

CsXGF8uzUAOh6fqV ,
@CsXGF8uzUAOh6fqV@lemmy.world avatar

Bacon is just compiler output but it “stays open” in your terminal and refreshes after you save your file; It is nice if you use something a bit minimal like vim without language server but you don’t want to compile manually every time.

2xsaiko , in TIL: QtWebKit is still being developed
@2xsaiko@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

That’s great to see. It has significantly more integration and capabilities than QtWebEngine and it’s a shame Qt dropped it.

I hope this gets a Qt6 port sometime.

chris ,

That might be true, but WebKit anywhere other than safari performed horrible for me.

lynny , in Why do we need tiling window managers when we have tmux?
@lynny@lemmy.world avatar

Try managing thousands of images with Unix timestamps for names with only the terminal. Or browsing the web.

There’s tons of stuff that is simply better done in a GUI.

nydas , in Why do we need tiling window managers when we have tmux?
@nydas@lemmy.world avatar

Because I don’t want my Firefox window overlapping my Vim window.

andarwaid , in Why do we need tiling window managers when we have tmux?

Because not everything can be viewed in terminal, crab_man

athlon , in Share Your Favorite Linux Distros and Why You Love Them

Mint. Easy to setup, fast to run, and very reliable.

hobbsc ,

Mint

Generally works in cases where Ubuntu would and you don’t have to deal with Canonical’s choices.

athlon ,

Yeah, but I rarely if ever leave those constraints, so it does not matter to me at all. Day to day, I use macOS anyway, and Mint only comes on my desktop PC.
