If you’re tired of python’s and venv issues, give miniconda a try. It solved most of my issues with dependencies and different python version in scripts.
It’s probably a skill issue regarding to pip/pipx/venv… But miniconda really made everything easier.
What about exFAT? It overcomes FAT32’s limitation and is nearly readable on every OS and has way higher file size limits.
Edit: In case of external storage like USB/hard drive.
Not sure if this is what happend, but there is a sync option in samba where you can sync your samba user password with login user password.
However this needs explicitly be stated in the samba.conf and needs some further configuration. It could be possible that the installation fuckedup something with passwd.
Just guessing here, I played a bit arround with samba and password syncing.
XFCE4 ! Stable, simple and EndeavourOS’ design is top notch !
However there are some glitches from time to time. Nothing to serious but when I use Lutris + Wine my desktop bar does some wired shit.
Also when coming back from sleep I have to “pkill xfce4-session”. Though I’m not totally sure it’s an xfce issue…this could also be Nvidia or X11 related… Didn’t dived to deep.
Hummm… Guess you’re to sensible? I mean I’m die hard linux lover for 3 years now and will never switch back to Windows… EVER!
However, I found some of those posts quite funny !
That’s also how my Linux download folder looks from time to time XD But since I’m on Arch bases distro I try to be more organized and clean-up that Download folder mess !!!
I’ve subscribed to YT Premium today.
If you’re on Android there’s InnerTune. It’s basically YouTube music but for free ! Just to bad you can’t directly access downloaded files to export them elsewhere. (Yeah that’s practically piracy and illegal)
I like navidrome + Tempo as self-hosted solution. Works well without any issues. However, I read about horror stories people losing all their media or fucking up their media library ?
Also, that’s a huge song library (20.000?)… Not sure this can be easily handled over to a self-hosted solution? But first you need to organize your songs
I think right now it doesn’t mean anything :/. It’s more a ‘wait&see’ situation… However as many many other stories in the past, this doesn’t sound good and bitwarden is slowly and carefully following the ‘enshitification’ path !
Keep an eye open and get ready to switch to another password manager (maybe a fork?).
Hey :) Thanks for the pointer. This was to beautiful to be true ! I searched around the web and found out what is actually happening in the background (learned something new and important so thank you!). And effectively It was writing to the cache and I wasn’t aware that was a thing on Linux.
The command I used to track it down: sync & watch -n 1 grep -e Dirty: /proc/meminfo. Took me some time to come across the right command and realize what’s happening.
Will update my post right way (BTW is still hate MacOS !)
Thank your for the hint, I will give it a try. I feel a bit stupid right now 😅
Ohhh? Interesting… First time I heard that and somehow rings a bell… I think I need to investigate your lead. Makes me feel a bit stupid right now.
:/
2GB/s or 2Gb/s? Because from the documentation USB 3.1 Gen2 is advertised UP to 10Gb/s.
And I guess there isn’t any way to “uncap” the throughput without being an even more Smartass? 😄
multitrack mixing with Ardour over Pipewire and some video editing on kdenlive.
That’s good to hear ! Nowadays a play a lot with ffmpeg and mkvtools to encode my media library mostly to SVT-AV1/opus. I read somewhere in the documentation that they only playback H.264-encoded content. Does that mean that AV1 isn’t supported OTB yet?
Also video decoder/Encoder is WIP. Are they only talking about hardware or also software decoding/encoding?
Thanks for your response !
Yeah I get that, that’s not my point. The same USB stick on Linux takes seconds, while on a MacBook air 1 rated at 10Gb/s takes 8 minutes??
Same USB stick, same file, other system.
I had a similar experience with a “wow the Linux community is beautiful” feeling after booting into Debian on an old rockchip CPU TV box !
Have a look at the armbian community. Those guys are on another level 😁.
To my surprise, I even discovered that you can boot Armbian on these inexpensive boxes and use them as a lightweight desktop
Oupsi ! It’s late here so I didn’t read till the end ! Sorry about that 😅
Hey, why don’t you use your computer like every “normal” person?
Haha, dunno about Garuda, but EndeavourOS is a tad difficult if you never used any Linux based distro before ! Granted it’s easier to setup and maintain than Arch, but still…
This reminds me of how in the past the swimming instructor just throw you in the pool even If you can’t swim… Some learned the hard way others were traumatized for life.
I Gave it a try on macOS a few days ago because brew and python is a dependencie hell and way to much workarounds to make some scripts to work properly when specific versions of packages are needed…
Miniconda actually made it work fine, without to much hassle. I’m kinda impressed.
As long as the EU doesn’t reinvent the wheel, why not? I mean if they are going to fork Linux and rewrite a EU-based linux OS, this would further divide the community and make issues and security a lot more wacky… Not sure this is a good idea.
