Yeah, I’ve always found terms like “content” (and by extension “content creator”) to be degrading and corporate-focused. It’s weird to me that it’s such a common way to refer to the work of artists and entertainers online. I don’t do anything of the sort, but it’s got to be rough being pushed so hard into chasing the algorithms to stay relevant.
I’ve yet to be disappointed in anything TWRP’s put out.
I think they got the nvidia driver accumulation thing straightened out. On Fedora 40, I had it automatically remove a bunch of older versions and now it only lists the 64 and 32 bit versions I expect it to.

Looks like you’re on Fedora Silverblue (or other Atomic version). This is happening because the system groups are in /usr/lib/group rather than /etc/group and this causes the issue you’re seeing here. You can work around it by getting into a root shell with something like
sudo -i
and then getting the group added to /etc/group with
grep -E ‘^dialout’ /usr/lib/group >> /etc/group
after that, you’ll be able to add your user to the group with
/etc is writable, so no reboots are required. That said, /etc is treated in a special way and each deployment will have its own /etc, based on the previous one.
So if you make changes to /etc then revert to a previous deployment, your changes will be reverted as well. But if you make changes and upgrade (or do whatever to create a new deployment), your changes will bu preserved.
If you’re using universal blue images, that comes built into the image (at least on nvidia images for sure). To get rid of it, you’d have to use rpm-ostree override remove to get rid of it.
So, I’m looking to rent a VPS to host a site and stuff, there’s a reasonably priced provider in my country, the only thing is when I went to check the OS the machine runs I was expecting something like Ubuntu server, Debian or maybe some RHEL-compatible, what TF is cloud Linux? All that I could find online is the company’s...
ofc you may schedule it with cron but following script I wrote won’t change anything. The setting is set but nothing changes. I’m on Fedora Silverblue...
I’m not sure about using xml files, but there’s also a ‘picture-uri-dark’ key you need to set instead if you’re using dark mode. I have a similar setup with a systemd user timer that runs every 5 minutes.
Edit: I just tried it out in the terminal and it works ok for xml files, too. Also, I try to avoid parsing the output of ls in scripts. You can use find instead, something like
Arrrr my fellow pirates. Since I’m very unexperienced with the seas I ask for you guys, where can I get Minecraft from for Arch Linux. It’s not because I’m not willing to pay 20€ but because Microsoft is a giant bitch and I’m not willing to put money in their mouth(especially after they changed their privacy policy).
Oh yeah, these guys have some crazy energy they give off. Their live performances are very much like this video, really. Not many bands give you a nunchaku solo.
In this blog I document my journey in learning the UEFI boot process and discover that not all laptop firmware implement the UEFI standard correctly or how you’d expect....
Not quite the same issue, but similar in the sense that it was caused by a UEFI that didn’t conform to spec.
I have an HP laptop that I installed Debian on, and it would never actually boot to grub even though I checked the boot entries several times over. You could open the settings and choose the boot entry manually, so it’s not like it was a problem with the OS or with grub. Turned out, this model was hard coded to only allow a boot entry named “Windows Boot Manager” to be loaded by default. I used efibootmgr to rename the debian entry and it booted into grub straight away.
As far as I’m aware, the Truecrypt backdoor thing was speculation regarding the termination of the Truecrypt project, but it was not confirmed. You can see here that development of Truecrypt ceased in 2014. Veracrypt was forked around that time. As for whether or not you can trust it, you’ll want to evaluate the audits that have been performed and decide if you trust them. You can find a link to what seems like the latest audit here.
It definitely takes a bit to get used to that, especially on the exhale. I found that it became better over time, especially once I was able to stop focusing on the mask and my breathing. I don’t use the ramp up personally, as I find it more comfortable for me. Definitely keep at it, and you should be able to talk to your provider if you keep having issues. I had to go through a few settings/mask types to find the right one.
See here for the results, there are links to the final png as well as timelapse videos. Looks like the Beehaw artwork turned out well, and there’s plenty of other great art on there, too. I managed to get a couple of little pieces squeezed in there myself just before the end....

I think they'll still be compliant as long as they offer their source to customers. The GPL doesn't require that you make source available to anyone, but to anyone that you distribute binaries to. From the GNU website:
One of the fundamental requirements of the GPL is that when you distribute object code to users, you must also provide them with a way to get the source.
Source: Quick GPLv3 Guide under the More Ways for Developers to Provide Source section.
Of course the GPL also allows redistribution of source code, and Red Hat seems to want to threaten customers who do so.
Based on what I've seen, they're limiting publicly accessible sources to CentOS Stream sources. Red Hat customers can still access RHEL sources throught the customer portal.
Did Fedora 40 break something for you? (gehirneimer.de)
I am running Fedora 39 right now and the last time I did a distro upgrade my graphics drivers were a huge PITA. Did your upgrade to 40 went smooth?
