Didn't work.

Probably it's not a permission problem.

 

I frequently encounter issues. Does someone have a working setup or should I simlpy use distrobox for IDEs?

thx. unfortunately that does not work with paperwm because it does not bring the window into view.

 

I use paperwm and when I cycle through windows, I don't want to have the popup. I just want to cycle through them.

Thanks!

Good to know that I just deleted the last months because I missed reading the fineprint.

Edit: it is 100% my fault. I don't blame someone else for my data loss.

This just shows that there is still room for improvement in the installation process.

Erasing the drive a second time?

I wanted to install Aeon. In a youtube video, the dev said it's increadibly easy. It even asks if you want to backup existing users and it leaves their home folder as is. This info was backed up by the docs.

Once I clicked on "install now" it reminded me that there is no going back once it starts installing the system. I clicked on OK because usually the installation process starts at the end of the configuration phase.

It then loaded, and I feared that it really erases everything now and not after configurartion. I stopped the process by shutting down the computer.

The computer does not detect any filesystem. It should be ext4 if I remember correctly. fsck yields no result. It suggests using two different blocks but with no success. I can't mount anything. Hence I also can't fix grub.

Did I just erase my disk within one second? If so, I can just continue. If not, I'd like to backup some stuff. (Most is backed up, but not the most recent stuff)

Why does it have to be transcribed into numbers anyway?

I agree. there's nothing wrong with a hot or top section. Platform curated stuff "only for you" is bad.

Even if a platform curates stuff it can be good, if everyone sees it.

I do not want to sit only in my bubble (like people tend to be on tiktok, facebook et al).

I want to see what others do. Automatically. Lemmy already has a feed for everything and hot and active etc. But not only for memes. Multicommunities are a good step towards that but we are not there yet.

Lemmy still lacks tags.

I am still in the same 5 subs I was 3 years ago. Just because I am not aware of other subs and I am too old to have 10 friends all meming their way through the web

This is about memes

[–] jumponboard@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Thanks! That's related to all stuff, not memes, right?

[–] jumponboard@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (11 children)

But how do you get new content? Assume "star wars" comes out tomorrow. How would I see that there is the new tag/sub? I'd have to actively search for it which is what I don't like
