Interesting. Looks like perhaps your boot loader isn’t properly pointing at your root partition.

I’m assuming you’ve just done the install and never successfully booted, yes? In that case, you can try to re-run the installer, or try rescue mode and try repairing the bootloader.

Are you doing dual-booting, or is this system dedicated to Linux?

Yes, back in the early 00s. We toyed with making a net-bootable image with it for our computer labs, but it was really not practical. It definitely taught me a ton about systems, though.

I admit, I’m not a big fan of putting more functionality into systemd (or just of systemd in general), but that is a well-reasoned argument for having sudo live in the init system.

I barely used my joycons, but I had drift. I don’t think I was misusing them, I only used them when mobile, and that was infrequent. And yet they drifted.

I replaced the sticks with Hall effect sticks, and they’ve been fine since.

“No lawful way…”

I just finished saving backups of the games I bought using my (hackable) Switch, and I’m planning on setting it up w/ Yuzu on my Steam Deck.

And no one’s going to stop me from fairly using my stuff.

I have not. I don’t handle our hardware much, so I’m not entirely sure what we’re using.

I read the man page, but I didn’t see the answer to your question in there.

I am assuming that it would only dump the root filesystem in your example. Other mounted filesystems like /home or /media, if they’re separate filesystems, probably aren’t included. You’d have to run a separate dump for each one.

Best option to find out is to try it and see what happens. No better way to learn than by doing.

We use a separate subdomain. For example, all our hosts are joined to the ad.example.com domain, so remote management would be the same hostname on ilo.example.com.

We also have all HP hardware (at least for servers), so we have everything in OneView. Other devices (NetScaler SDX appliances, other stuff with management interfaces) just have their interface in that subdomain and it works out great.

I just got a Steam Deck, and I bought Baldur’s Gate 3. Pretty sure I’ll finish it on my deathbed. It feels like the hour here or there that I manage to play is not getting me anywhere fast.

Read the error again. It’s journalctl.

Better option, have a good contract in place.

This was from a while ago. I believe Linus took some time away to try and work on his interpersonal skills. I haven’t seen anything since his hiatus, but hopefully he’s less abusive and more constructive in his messages now.

PowerShell makes that a lot better these days. It’s still not perfect, but a lot better.

It’s not that it’s deleted automatically. If you define deleting as “not being referenced by the file system,” then it’s deleted as soon as it’s unlinked.

Fun story - create a big file, and hold it open in an application. Unlink the file. Then compare the output of du and df for the mount point the file was on. It will differ until the app closes and the inode of the file is finally freed.

I’m thankful that my kids fly well, and always have. We flew with them at ~15 months with no issues.

I’ve always heard the complaints about screaming infants and whatnot…but I’ve never seen it. Granted, I don’t fly too often (and less so more recently), but I’ve never had the “classic” kid crying through the entire flight. It just doesn’t happen as often as people think. I’m sure when it does happen that it’s pretty f’n annoying, though.

Cursory Google searches will give you driver downloads. Dell/HP can give you a pre-bundled package of drivers.

Unless you’ve got some very unique hardware (or very old), it just isn’t that difficult to figure out.

I’m all for using Linux, and I’m considering moving my desktop over from Win 10, but I’ve never had any issues with the install of Windows. If it’s any level of modern hardware, it should mostly work out of the box.

These kinds of rants really trip my BS detector, because it’s just not that complicated. If you can handle Linux but can’t manage to even install Windows, I have a lot of questions.
