Yes, grep is cool, but I use/need it so rarely, I can never remember the syntax.
My system has functioned so reliably for years, that I hardly ever need to do any fixing or configuration.
The only need for maintenance, is basically hardware upgrades. 👍
Pretty amazing IMO. 😀
lsblk is better, but still a bit confusing:
bh /mnt/tera-home/home/bh lsblk

What’s the weirdo “ââ” for? It would look 10 times better without.
Edit:
Ah apparently a terminal character compatibility problem, it’s supposed to be a graphics character showing indentation. 🤷♀️
I just removed snapd and snapd-glib and the list is 3 lines shorter.
OK I have something called snapd, which I may want to remove.
extra/snapd 2.61.1-1 [installed]
Service and tools for management of snap packages.
I don’t have Ubuntu snap, or anything called snaps installed. I’m using Manjaro, but if snap was there originally I have removed it. No way I’d use that.
What? Are you talking removable drives? Because there is no distro I’m aware of, that automatically mounts a newly installed disk.
Also usually systems don’t grant write privileges for EXT4 or other security featured formats. But only for FAT32 and ExFAT and other “lesser” formats.
So often you have to switch to root, and grant those privileges to your user account.
Yes, I know, but that’s not automatic, and automatic mount-points vary for removable drives based on DE and distro.
You don’t need to. It is handled automatically.
No it’s not, and you still need to identify what data is on what drive when swapping. I am not aware of a distro where a drive is auto-mounted with write privileges after you install it.
I have AMD stock😀, I was always an AMD guy and stuck with my trusty Bulldozer FX CPU when they were really bad compared to Core2, I predicted way back in 2016 AMD would compete with Nvidia on compute, and later AI. But even for me what Linus did was too thick.
Intel was still ahead in single threaded at the time, but Linus focused ONLY on negative things.

Yes I can see that’s very convenient for seeing your drives. 😜
Could you please correct your bot to not use double return for new line, which causes empty lines? And instead use a double space at the end of the line, and then return, which works as a normal return.
I have no idea why Lemmy does formatting this very counter intuitive way, but that’s how it is.
That’s actually one of my biggest gripes with Linux, it seems very difficult to keep track of physical drives and their mount points for when you need to swap things out. I still find it a bit cumbersome, and I’ve been using Linux since 2005.
True, that would be more accurate.
I’ve blocked his channels, so I can’t give recent sources. But it was VERY clear he ignored AMD graphics for years around 2014-2018, until when they began to advertise, they suddenly got attention. Also it was very clear that when Intel stopped their program to support reviewers, he did a 180 and was suddenly VERY EXTREMELY negative on everything Intel. Coinciding with when AMD began to advertise on his channel.
Just pay attention if you use his channel, and I bet you’ll see it very quickly too.
Not if they don’t advertise, and if they do, it’s so little I never saw it.
LTT is hidden advertising, and there is no money for that in Linux.
Personally 6570 days without windows, and counting.
I thought of Slackware, as the Original and first distro, but I couldn’t remember the name.
I very rarely need to do anything in the terminal that takes more than a couple of minutes. I grew up with terminal based systems, and IMO nothing will ever beat the Amiga in clever design and nice terminal with way more intuitive commands. I never really liked Unix, and Linux is essentially like Unix when you use the Terminal.
I’ve been using computers since 1979, so I admit I don’t play with them like I used to.
