Windows can have the same problem when you run out of space, but it will at least give you a helpful UI to clean everything up.

Its not clear to me either why it appeared as if there was free space, but it might be the btrfs/df incompatibility the other poster raised.

Good luck, and reach out if there are further issues :)

The dnf clean deleted old downloaded packages. You will probably hit disk space issues again soon, so I suggest you resize your root partition at some stage if possible. Use a gparted livecd.

sudo dnf clean?

Otherwise you’ll need to start cleaning out software your not using and/or resizing your disk partitions.

Also, check the size of the files in the /var/log directory, you may be able to shrink or delete them.

Woah woah woah, slow down. I just want cd, I dont think I need to bash any fishes.

I’m looking for a distro with good cd support, what should I use?

I think my instance is now defed’d from hexbear, but when it wasn’t, they were the reason I wouldnt recommend lemmy to my partner. Their “trolling” was pure obnoxiousness.

The other major issue I think is the lack of moderation, lemmy just isnt a very pleasant space. There are still issues with spam. The CSAM incident a while back hasnt been repeated, but I have no reason to beleive it cant/wont happen again. Porn seems to hit All every so often.

With an agressively curated block list Lemmy can be nicer, but by default it just isnt.

Here is an idea for dissection: There should be a default blocklist that instances can provide and update. Defederation is too coarse a tool, but if instances (or third parties?) could provide a list of “bad” instances, “bad” communities and “bad” users that are used as the default blocklist. Users are free to opt out of the blocklist, but with a sane default lemmy could be a lot safer. (Or maybe not, im no expert)

Clevo/Metabox have always been my goto for upgradable/repairable machines. I got a Metabox P650SE over a decade ago, and it was rock solid for a very long time (still is usable, but its quite heavy now, so I upgraded to a thinner and lighter laptop).

Super easy to open and replace RAM, harddisks, clean out dust etc.

No trouble getting a replacement battery and bottom shell as it aged.

Definitelt thick as well. Downside is cost, they are not cheap. But also not Apple level expensive either.

Perhaps the OP means that when they open nautilus in the host it crashes virtualbox? It could be ram usage climbing up and the OOM killer taking out virtualbox?

The sha256 only validates file integrity, it doesnt ensure legitimacy. A malicious actor would replace both the iso and the checksum at the same time.

Only the signature ensures legitimacy, but properly setting up the chain of trust is near impossible anyway without meeting face-to-face with the iso signer.

Using a theoretically backdoored OS to verify anything is pointless.

The backdoored OS can just bypass the checks.

Out of curiousity, whats your success rate?

I dont think there is anything wrong with that, as long as you are setting the expectations right. In some ways, it takes the load off the maintainer, because they dont necessarily have to “fix” your code, they can just rewrite from scratch using your code as inspiration.

Different devs accept different things, and we are all burnt out to some degree.

I think you probably want to start small, i.e, normalise the colors first, and then do your dark mode change, but it really depends.

Did the dev not say why they rejected it? Seems very rude of them not to give a reason.

Depends on the project (and the maintainers), but have you reached out to the developers for assistance?

Touching a foreign codebase is always difficult, even for professional coders. I have found that it usually is a very hard slog for a few weeks or so, and then it will start to click in place. I think the only real shortcut is to ask for help and see if an existing dev can guide you through it.

A bit of sniffling helps sell it, but it definitely seems to keeo people away from me. Or maybe i just smell bad :D

The best part, is people wont sit near you if your wearing a mask because they think your sick.

They often get described as leftists, but mostly seemed like they were just trolls looking to pick fights. If someone told me they were a false-flag to discredit leftists, I would beleive it.

Write an alias/function to do it and add to your bashrc.

function nanox() {
    nano "$1"
    chmod +x "$1"
}

Probably backwards compatibility with existing scripts.

Im lazy. Dont like my beard, but cbf shaving.
