smileyhead , to linux in Schenker shows off a Linux laptop prototype with Snapdragon X Elite at Computex 2024

Linux was ready for ARM years ago.

Sad that we need to wait for Windows to get support first so manufacturers and chip makers start to care.

smileyhead , to fediverse in How do you guys feel about Loops?

I never got into vertical video, not my type of thing.

But if something like that is a way for someone to reduce stress or do anything in a bored moment, then why not.

smileyhead OP , to selfhosted in Make my IPv6 selfhosted service available on IPv4 network.

What I want to do. But the question is how?

VPS as a proxy… but when I point A record to VPS and AAAA record to server in my home, how would the VPS know which traffic to pass and how.

smileyhead , to asklemmy in What movie would you most like to watch for the first time again?

I won’t be very original, but first thing that came to my mind is Fight Club.

But actually, it is best to watch the second time, once you know what is happening, but I want to experience this plot twist one more time. If someone didn’t watch it already, please so not spoiler it to yourself.

They might expect you to be available via the phone 24/7 and carry such sensor packed device anywhere.

a work appointed phone

With all the tracking that comes with it.

smileyhead , to linux in New to Linux and can't install Librewolf

One thing that could help is showing what is going wrong. Do just the icon does not appear? Do some error show up?

But regardless, I see that Librewolf is not packaged in Debian official software repositories (online storage a software packages are downloaded from), so they ask you to add their own repository manually, which for APT case (package manager in Linux Mint) is an overwhelming amount of code to type to say at least.

You say you are a new user, so I can highly recommend that if something is not officially available through simple apt install to try Flatpak. Official guide: flathub.org/setup/Debian, TLDR:


<span style="color:#323232;">sudo apt install flatpak   # Installs flatpak to your system
</span><span style="color:#323232;">flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo   # Adds Flathub, the biggest store for flatpaks
</span>

Once it’s there:


<span style="color:#323232;">flatpak install librewolf
</span>

Someone using Linux for years might know where stuff on system is placed and not fear not knowing what a command do and how to undo it. But if you don’t know what is happening, better to stick to distribution provided sources. Otherwise the equivalent would be like typing some commands in Windows to change registry keys :). I think Librewolf should recommend Flatpak by default instead.

Sorry if this is too much info, just tried to explain things a little more than usual.

smileyhead , to linux in My friend didn't have a great experience with Linux

If by working reliably we mean working the same bad way as usual so it has already established multi million dollar industry made of giant patchwork keeping installations alive.

Microsoft cannot even change the look of right click menu without worring something isn’t going to break.

smileyhead , to linux in My friend didn't have a great experience with Linux

For what I see as a helpdesk guy, most problems that are encountered origin from Windows being Windows, not tech knowleadge of some person. I cannot expect much from system where even installing stuff is stuck at pre 2000 era.

smileyhead , to piracy in Japan seeks international coordination to thwart online manga, anime piracy

By making us able to actually buy them, right? Right? 🫠

smileyhead , to lemmyshitpost in SO MUCH DEDITATED WHAM

But Windows also have swap memory?

Maybe I do not understand shitposting…

smileyhead , to linux in [solved] mounting system partition to /mnt has /mnt/@/etc

It seems like they are subvolumes. How did you install the system?

When mounting a btrfs without any options root/main directory is containg subvolumes. Meaning that when creating a directory it is being created as subvolume, then in that subvolume there are regular files.

What does the btrfs subvolume list / say?

Also as side note, there is nothing wrong with updating on GUI.

smileyhead , (edited ) to linux in What are the best proprietary/paid apps for linux?

I won’t say it’s “best”, as I just want to run a game without friendlists and other bloat, so I really hate the fact Steam is nessesary for so many games.

But I would call it “essentiall”.

smileyhead , to asklemmy in Search engines down?

That’s just Bing down with all of it’s puppets rebrands.
