Linux@lemmy.ml•Is KDE actually good or it is overrated? Or I was just unlucky because of prebuilt distros?
141·1 year agoKDE Manjaro running on 4 or 5 of my machines, pure stability. It sounds like a hardware issue.
Here are my suggestions to diagnose this.
Option 1. Setup an ssh server, connect from a second computer (or phone via Termux), execute $journalctl -fe, and observe the journal from your second device when the crash occurs. That should help pinpoint the issue.
Option 2. If you don’t have a second device, use a non-gui tty, access via Ctrl+Alt+F1. (Usually terminals are available F1 thru F6). Once again execute $journalctl -fe and observe it during the crash.
Tbh option 2 may just be easier especially if you have minimal knowledge of ssh. Good luck, ping me back if you find this helpful and would like more perspective, and apologies if this doesn’t help you.
If the entire computer crashes, boot into a terminal and browse journalctl history of previous boots, sorry I don’t have these commands off the top of my head but if you need them and ask I will get them for you.
I’m loving China’s silent treatment strategy. Use the diplomatic chains, asshole. Trump may have a mob boss mentality, and corporate America is ready to suck his duck because they are spineless capitalists, but China doesn’t need America as much as America needs China.
Fuck the orange moron. Insert head into asshole.

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•made a Linux community all about customizing your distro (link in the body)
1·1 year agoMost of my customization is backend (cronned git autocommits for doc clouds, automated file transfers for media share, scripted reprovisioning of locked down systems (steamdeck), webui automation for app access via ssh), but I appreciate front-end customization because it helps me to learn about the tools used to do so in case I ever do feel like adding some eye candy.
Idk why so many folks act like two things can’t be good. Cool community idea. I’m not quite a customizer, but I am more KDE and less XFCE.
“Write random shit to root.”
There is a reason they call dd the disk-destroyer.
I add a -v because I like to watch.
You’re right, we should ask for consent.
sudo chmod -R 777 /May god have mercy on your kernel.
(For Linux noobs, do not type this. It would be bad.)

213·1 year agoWhen you have privilege, losing that privilege is perceived as persecution. We see a similar phenomenon with snowflake white males in the US spouting misinformation about what DEI is so that they can end it.
Fuck the genocidal state of Israel.

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Almost as annoying as the windows evangelists
173·1 year agoOn CLI I figure out the command I need once.
Put it in a script.
Cron it if I want it to be daemonized.
Never think about it ever again.
Anti-CLI folks just have a bad workflow.
They see the script as the end, when in reality it’s a foundation. I rarely look at my foundation. I build on it.
With this workflow I have dozens, hundreds, or thousand of automatic actions that “just work”. Idk, works for me.
That said, if you prefer to click yourself to RSI to accomplish the same task, who am I to judge. I just watch and nod until I’m asked for a suggestion.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•How can I directly seed older torrented files?English
2·2 years agoAs simple as what I’m about to suggest is, it is priceless.
This is an example when copy > paste. Copy the file content, perform the methods shared in this thread, then once you’ve verified that everything is running properly you can delete the original copy.
If it bunks and overwrites, no biggie, you planned for that.
I’d love to say that I’d never made the mistake of choosing CUT when I should have chosen COPY, but I guess sometimes we learn things the hard way. 💀

Ollama is better than GPT, but worse than basically every other local solution (from a performance perspective and an ethical perspective). I was annoyed when I found out, but made the switch to something llama based.
