Works great for me. I’m on X11 for now as an application for work refuses to work with Wayland - support page and I haven’t tried figuring out how to get it to use Xwayland.
Now that I think about it, I had one issue with screen tearing but that was more a driver issue with Nvidia.
My wife and I have just recently had our first child and I'm looking at getting a decent baby monitor (or security camera) setup.
Our place is not very big at all (think a studio with a separate bedroom/bathroom). I was given a cheap security camera to use for now but I want to start planning for when we move into a bigger apartment (security cameras) and a generally better system for monitoring our baby when we are in another room and cannot hear.
Should I invest in a baby monitor now or would it be better to invest in a decent security camera system instead?
I'm based in the EU and am quite tech-savvy so I don't have a problem setting things up myself if it means a better system.
Thank you for such a detailed breakdown! I'll give all of this a go over the weekend.
Use find and grep to find all files with a certain extension (this will involve the wildcard character
*
I definitely need to practice using find and grep. When I do need to use them I almost always need to look up the command
Thank you for such a detailed response.
I've tried learning Vim previously but I never really gave it as much time as I should have. I haven't tried Emacs yet, I'll have a look at that as well.
I’ll definitely give man some more love. Thanks for the advice
It’s more a case of, I don’t know what I don’t know.
I’ve been using my terminal (I’m not scared of breaking stuff) where possible and reading up on what command to use for certain use cases or refreshing my memory on how to use a certain command. I would like to expand on that knowledge.
I’ve been doing this to a lesser extent. Where possible I’d try to use the terminal to perform a task which would often require reading up about certain commands (either because they’re new to me or I’ve forgotten something). I suppose like anything it’ll take time for me to get more confident.
That looks interesting. I like the idea of trying to emulate a system only using the command line - I learn a lot from hands-on projects like this
I've been using Linux for about 7 months now and have become a lot more comfortable using the terminal but I feel like there is more that I can learn.
Most of my work is done in a browser or DaVinci Resolve. I do try to use the terminal where possible but it's limited due to my workflow.
Are there any interactive sites where I can practice/learn the terminal? I'm going through Linux Survival at the moment.
EDIT: I forgot to add some important details.
I don't have a massive need for the terminal for my current workflow but I think it is important to know (looks good for any future job applications as well) and expand your knowledge on things that interest you when possible.
In the future, I hope to have a home lab/NAS running Linux. I will most likely SSH into that and I'd like to deal with any issues via the terminal.
I use Arch btw (technically EndeavourOS)
I tried a couple of months ago on my Windows PC and something went wrong somewhere and my USB was stuck in a permanent read-only state.
I definitely will give it another try though, it's super handy to have.
I'm an idiot and got Ventoy confused with another program I was testing at the time. Please ignore me.
I was trying to find some medicine today and realised I need a better system to organise what I have and know what I don’t have. Currently, everything is kind of thrown into a drawer.
Ideally it will be seamless enough that it doesn’t become a chore when I need to add or remove something.
EDIT:
Thank you for all the suggestions thus far. I just want to make a small clarification.
I'm not looking for a system to organise the medicine/vitamins that I am currently taking (although the ideas provided are super useful). I'm thinking more along the lines of a "stock management" system for the stuff I am not actively using.
I came across this software as an example.
I’ve tried searXNG but I’ve never been able to get great search results. Maybe I need to spend some more time setting it up or something??
I’ve used DDG and Kagi previously and don’t have any complaints. Startpage has also been pretty decent for myself.
Five days ago Niantic announced a new Pokémon in Pokémon Go, which spawns only in beaches.

I'll thrown in Phanpy as an alternative to Elk. I love and use both.

On a similar note, learning to care less about what others think of you is incredibly freeing.
I’ve found that most of the activity is here. Since the community is still relatively small, I’d try and keep things here personally.
Agree with @TotallyNotSpez@lemm.ee about the toxicity. Another option which could be nice in the future is an Irish instance.
Yes, I'm based in Ireland. Like I said, things have been really good since day one for myself, just the last few days to a week that it has been slow. Honestly, thought it was my app since I'm not often browsing lemdro.id from the web or as a web app on my phone.
If you live outside of the US and experience consistently long load times I want to hear from you! I am deploying the first read replica node to Europe soon, so if you live in that region you'll soon notice near-instaneous loading of content. Very exciting!
EDIT: No idea why the GIF is so large. I'll try get the file size down a little at some point.
Generally, the response times have been really good. It is only the past week or so that things seem to have gotten a little slower - video demo
I can’t wait for the iOS version or hopefully I would have switched phones by then.
I've been seeing a lot of talk about CachyOS recently. Has anyone here tried it? It seems interesting and I might give it a go (currently on EndeavourOS) on a spare drive in my PC.
I often hear folks in the Linux community discussing their preference for Arch (and Linux in general) because they can install only the packages they want or need - no bloat.
I've come across users with a couple of hundred packages installed (likely fresh installs), but I've also seen others with thousands.
Personally, I'm currently at 1.7k packages on my desktop and 1.3k on my laptop (both running EndeavourOS). There might be a few packages I could remove, but I don't feel like my system is bloated.
I guess it's subjective, but when do you consider a system to be bloated?
I'm asking as a relatively new Linux user - been daily driving for about 7/8 months
I was in the ED the other day and noticed that they use a mix of Windows 7 and Windows 10. My question is two part.
- Do you know of hospitals using Linux?
- Besides legacy software and unwanted downtime, is there any reason why they wouldn’t use Linux?
There doesn’t seem to be a very active filmmaking community on Lemmy, so I thought I’d ask here.
I’ve been using Artlist.io for almost a year now but I’ve started being less and less impressed with the music. A lot of it feels the same or leans too much into the corporate genre.
I’m looking for recommendations before I renew my subscription. Audiio seems like it could be a good deal? Musicbed also seems great but a little more expensive than I’d like at the moment.
Any other recommendations that I should look at?
I thought I’d share this Mastodon bot - @SmallTownUSA - here as I’ve found it great fun.
> Posting towns in the USA with a population less than 1000 that are undermapped on OpenStreetMap.org
I quite enjoy mapping areas that have nothing or very little mapped. This bot kind of helps with that. Although, I’d love another one for my home country and current country of residence.
I’m thinking of the type of thing you wished you knew sooner. But if you have other advice, please share!
I’m a couple months (officially) into running a videography business and would love to use this post to share and help each other.
My Advice: I was into videography and doing it as a side hustle for almost a year but kept delaying registering myself as a business. If I could go back, I’d do that sooner.
I’m looking at getting myself a new laptop to replace my Dell Inspiron. I’ll be using it for some on the go video editing.
I watch TheLinuxExperiment and he seems happy enough with Tuxedo Laptops. I was looking at the TUXEDO Stellaris 16 - Gen5 - AMD but I’m open to other recommendations.
Currently working a remote job that I hate. Management takes micromanagement to a whole new level. They're based in the US so I get paid in Dollar but I also don't have any legal protection.
I've got a side hustle (videography) that I'm trying to build into my main gig.
My previous experience has been in tech (in various roles). Ranging from customer support/content moderation to management. I also have some more technical experience with automation.
My LinkedIn is up-to-date but I don't seem to be getting past the automated systems and to the interview stage
EDIT: My instance (lemdro.id) is having issues with lemmy.world so I don't always see the updates from lemmy.world straight away. It's generally about a 6 hour delay.
EDIT 2: I’ve created another account on Lemmy.World (@governorkeagan_@lemmy.world) so that I can interact here while my instance fixes the federation issue.
TL;DR: I got a response from Reddit that basically says they’re not violating anything.
There was a post here 3 weeks ago that talked about the GDPR violations Reddit is committing.
> reddit is telling it's future investors with recent news and more info on their IPO, that they're currently selling and looking to sell their user's data to companies wanting to train their LLMs, including Google.
I’m not sure of anyone else has gotten a response from them yet so I thought I’d share the email.
