Reminds me of that one cop show from the BBC that covers an internal affairs and anti-corruption team. It's called Line of Duty.
Not with that attitude you can't!
In many cases that kind of answer is correct though. People ask for things that aren't a good idea on a regular basis. Sometimes what they want is correct for their circumstances, but often not.
There is a manual pre-installed on your machine for most commands available. You just type man and the name of the thing you want the manual for. Many commands also have a --help option that will give you a list of basic options.
I should point out this isn't Linux specific either. Many of these commands come from Unix or from other systems entirely. macOS has a similar command line system actually. It's more that Linux users tend to use and recommend the command line more. Normally because it's the way of doing things that works across the largest number of distributions and setups, but also because lots of technical users prefer command line anyway. Hence why people complain about Windows command lines being annoying. I say command lines because they actually have two of them for some odd reason. Anyway I hope this helped explain why things are the way they are.
both pretty extreme
First comment I have seen here that's even half intelligent. Most people seem to be confusing leftists with Democrats.
both pretty extreme
Biden is not even close to far left.
Honestly your asking the wrong person here. I would suggest maybe starting with Krapotkin or Bakunin who were some of the early anarchists. That or just looking up anarchist philosophy and history. Anarchists have a history fighting against both fascism and some marxist tendencies like the Bolsheviks.
They definitely do have positions and beliefs. I am not sure how much you actually understand anarchism. Anarchist "nations" have even been established before, but they tend to get invaded sooner or later. While they do sometimes ally with Marxists you would be correct in thinking they have few permanent allies. Hence the getting invaded part I guess.
I think we all like law and order
Have you never met any anarchists?
KDE has settings for extra mouse buttons. Linux Mint is kind of behind in several areas unfortunately.
Probably KDE settings can deal with this. At least that worked on mine. Hyprland also has stuff for remapping extra mouse buttons.
Yeah this is terrible from a security and usability point of view. Just stop using proprietary bs systems. Why do you think so many technical people use Linux and avoid IoT devices like the plague? So we don't have to deal with companies doing stuff we don't like without a choice.
Because it's a lot simpler and avoids the issue of dealing with printer drivers on all your machines.
I don't know the context here because I am not American. That being said I can see it being useful that there is a record somewhere that someone has transitioned and what medical steps this involved for no other reason than their safety. Things like HRT, or any kind of surgery can have serious complications. Even gender dysphoria itself can lead to suicide. There should be some mechanism in place for Doctors to get this information quickly, and by nature that would probably involve the government. It should obviously be protected information like any other piece of medical data not available to all government workers unless it directly concerns their responsibilities.
If someone isn't comfortable speaking from their main account (which apparently isn't the case here) then that's more of a sign the community needs to change and be more open to differing points of view. It's not always a problem with the individual, and implying that to be the case when it clearly isn't is a toxic thing to do.
Reread his comment. He says that getting them involved is probably harmful, but that it's difficult to conduct conclusive studies without doing harm to children.
You understand that technical people often are the least likely to trust new technology and are often stuck in the mud when it comes to technology? Doubly so if you are anti-corporation. It seems anything that isn't the Unix way of doing things can be questioned.
There is a good meme about people who love technology vs people who actually work with the stuff. The former using IoT devices to turn their lights on while the latter uses a light switch and has a gun in case the printer starts making weird noises.
I could be wrong and I apologize if so but it sounds like you are confusing children being aware or witnessing the existence of sex with them being forced or coerced into taking part. Normally when people talk about or so research about child sexual abuse they are talking about the latter and not the former, so just looking up child sexual abuse research wouldn't be sufficiently specific.
This is a very weird thing to say. Have you considered that maybe it's only not important to you? Because it sure seems important to everyone else. Maybe you are asexual or something, which is totally fine, but it doesn't mean everyone else is.
It's not an excuse. Socketed RAM has been a bottleneck for iGPUs for a while now.
NixOS audio issues
I am having audio issues on NixOS. I have tried enabling all firmware. I've also tried both pipewire and pulseaudio. The audio is confirmed working on CachyOS live image.
Here is the error message found in the system log:

Why isn't my hyprland configuration applying
I created a hyprland and waybar configuration using nix, and neither seem to actually apply. Why is this happening?
YouTube client alternative
I am looking for a YouTube alternative client, where I can ideally import my subscriptions, and possible even like or comment on a Linux computer. Does such a thing exist?
Does it make sense to get an ADHD diagnosis if I already have an ASD diagnosis?
First off I am in England in the UK, so that's the medical system I would probably be using.
I've had significant issues with executive function throughout my life, but especially in the last two years of my integrated masters degree. This includes organization, as well as staying focused. I've had issues with losing things, multitasking, procrastinating, racing thoughts, and other issues in the other areas of life as well. I am thinking of going back to do a PhD or starting my first full time job, and am worried that I will really struggle this time.
I got a diagnosis of Asperger's before you could officially have a dual diagnosis under the DSM. So even though some of initial paperwork said I had significant evidence of ADHD, I couldn't actually be diagnosed with both so I guess Asperger's took precedence. This all happened when I was like 4 or 5 years old.
I am thinking medications or maybe therapy might be helpful, but I don't know if I need the second diagnosis to get those. Fro
How to sync local and remote calibre servers
I have a calibre server setup on my home server and was wondering how to sync it to the version on my desktop so I can upload books to an ereader using USB.
Best way to do aria2 on Proxmox
Trying to figure out how to setup an aria2 server. It seems to rely on XDG dirs which isn't normally setup on LXC containers. I don't want to setup a whole GUI VM just for one application.
Real debird issues
I have been having issues using real debrid. One of the big issues is downloads getting stuck continuously retrying. I think this is because I am using 5G internet that has issues with latency and occasional packet loss. Similarly I get buffering issues when using Stremio.
Another problem I am having is with the permission set by the real debrid client if I use the docker version. It doesn't allow for changing the UID and GID the real debrid process uses. This causes problems for the other services, though I can work around this using a manual installation in an LXC container.
Does anyone with more experience know how to fix this?
Edit: I can't edit the title to fix the spelling. You will just have to deal.
Edit2: Fixed the permission issues. Also managed to work out that the problem isn't 5G. The download client is just bad. Apparently you can use external downloaders, but this requires deploying services like aria2c, which it turns out is actually quite hard.
Should I use authentik with or without nginx proxy manager?
I am a bit lost as to how you use authentik to do single sign on.
I can connect things that have external access quite easily using the reverse proxy provider that's built into authentik. I am struggling with how I would connect things that are on a docker network and can't be accessed directly. Normally with nginx proxy manager I would put it on the same network, but I don't think this is correct for authentik. Am I supposed to create a docker outpost?
Other people are using authentik + nginx proxy manager and I am a bit lost why they are doing that.
Working around lack of router settings
I am currently living with my parents and we have just started an Internet contract with a 5G wireless company.
The issue is the MFND settings are behind a password and likely not allowed access by the ISP. Even if they weren't doing port forwarding on 5G likely isn't possible because of CGNAT. I think I can use cloudflare tunnels or tailscale to get around this, and not many things need to be directly accessible from the Internet.
The more annoying thing is that setting DHCP reservations likely isn't possible without getting access to the settings. It's going to make setting up static IPs difficult too.
Before anyone asks fixed line Internet almost certainly isn't practical in this area. Getting our own modem while possible is more expensive and potentially difficult, and would mean cancelling the contract.
Is there a reasonable way to work around these issues?
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Music streaming for BSD
Hello based people of lemmy,
I have recently started trying out BSDs as an alternative to Linux and found out that Spotify isn't supported. Before you say try it in a browser this doesn't work as spotify has DRM that doesn't work on BSD OSes.
Now is there a way to stream music similar to Spotify? I know there is a downloader program available.
Furthermore do you know what self-hosted options are available? I already have a basic *arr stack and am always up for convoluted server and Linux hijinks.
Jellyfin on FreeBSD
I am having issues with Jellyfin not finding ffmpeg on FreeBSD. Is there any solution to this?
I am lost on chemical stabilisation
I have been struggling to stabilise things in my last few brewing attempts. I had been using a combination stabiliser (sorbate and sulfite) from the department store Boyes. It doesn't seem to work.
I know have sorbate powder and I already had campden tablets. I am wondering how you dose them correctly. From what I understand it's dependant on the ABV and the pH. Is there an easy way to calculate this? I take it there is no easy and cheap way to do a free SO2 test.
I am begging to think buying a sous vide and doing pasteurization is easier and more reliable at this point.
K50/K50 Pro and xiaomi.eu
Chinese ROMs come without support for many languages. Even when using English there are still things which are in Chinese.
The people selling the devices on AliExpress are selling then with a "global rom". The issue here is that the rom doesn't exist officially. So no updates are available and you don't know what's actually inside it.
xiaomi.eu provide a modified version of the Chinese rom with language support and some other things. The issue is they charge for this through patreon for any mediatek devices. You have to keep paying if you want security updates. This is immoral and probably illegal as they don't own MIUI or Android and copyleft is designed to prevent this kind of thing.
To add insult to injury they started offering some mediatek roms for free. When people stopped paying the patreon they removed them from the download sites.
Shame on them and shame on the AliExpress sellers. If anyone knows a good course on building android roms and reverse engineering them let me kn
Two yeast mead
Was running out of Kveik yeast (my last brewing yeast), and too impatient to wait for more to arrive so decided to co-pitch the one gram I had left with some sourdough starter.
What does anybody think will happen?
The starter has worked well at fermenting strawberry wine in the past, but it was looking a lot less healthy this time.
Honestly this was an impulse decision to do this but I will be interested to see what happens. Maybe it will sour? That would be exciting.
