I have a reply to most of the points you’ve brought up which I hope will help you see another perspective. Some things I hadn’t even thought of until you wrote this (thanks). But I don’t have time to write them all now, nor do I want to type it all out at my phone. Leaving this comment as a reminder.

Yo if you’re ever in the mood, I’d love to talk more about the subject with you. You might be the only person I’ve ever seen to actually talk about this topic the way I understand it.

No this guy actually understands what he’s talking about. He may not be articulating it the best, but his argument is not false. What he’s essentially saying is that based on what we understand now, the brain must be a machine in some sense that can do computations.

The only reason this is the case is because logically unless new physics arises this must be the case. So it’s not the brain is a computer like we have now, it’s that all things that process and handle information systematically must do computation. What that looks like and what each unit does it what we don’t get.

They don’t have to mean the same thing, it’s an expression. And quite a nice one at that.

I don’t think this change makes it more funny, it just changes the type of humor.

I think the reason why it didn’t work on your external drive is that is a different permission to system files. Something to do with usb stuff.

When it comes to backing up your home files, I’m not sure what you mean by home file? Do you mean the home folder? Cause if so I don’t think SaveDesktop can do that as that includes all your files, not just your configs. You’d have to use another tool to move those folders.

I was not able to reproduce that bug, but I also did not change anything in flatseal, I think you shoulf just reset the permissions and/or reinstall and just try it normally.

I think it needs access to all your host files as well, let me see if I can replicate that error.

Wishing you luck, it’s so worth it once it works

If you want something simple that does this for you: check out SaveDesktop. I’m not sure if it will meet every need, but it works for me when I need to switch.

You probably need to use localhost lol or the name of container set in the docker compose file. Both might work, I forget

I think this means it can’t actually see your jellyfin instance, you need to use your computer’s local network ip instead of localhost if the two containers aren’t in the same pod via a docket compose file. I’ve had this issue before.

For starters, the exact words are “Should focus on software, not politics”. This is a commonly known dogwhistle, there are numerous cases of someone questioning whether trans people should have rights then saying this. The only correct way to say it is, “let’s not bring in legal politics”. Morality and Organization are separate topics and cannot be discarded in any context where people organize. That is all.

It’s not about the actual meaning, the statement itself is double talk to tell people to shut up when other people want to be bigots. There’s nothing wrong with wanting separation but communities should be inclusive by default with codes of conduct. Just simple rational organization, nothing else. Also I should clarify political to me is talking about elections in different countries and voting. Whether or not members of my community should exist or face harassment is not a political issue.

Was looking for this in this comment section, I see this solution as becoming the goto for moving between installs even though it is limited right now

I’d say alpaca is pretty much identical these days, the only major difference is the interface. If you need more power running something like Open WebUI with Ollama makes more sense.

Vanilla GNOME make brain feel good. Ubuntu GNOME make brain feel bad

Bro just told me to ween myself off my job and friend group

Unfortunately the snap argument may have merit after all. Some companies have dropped support for it and are all in on flatpak. I’ve run into several cases where something was available on flathub but not the snap store. And considering gnome, kde, and most new devs are all in on flatpak, someone would be really missing out on some great apps that make life easier if they only had snaps.

Not only that but Ubuntu has really diverged in other areas as well they may only show up later like choosing LXD over podman. People should just get an experience that is closest to SteamOS for maximum compatibility and support atp. Putting someone on Ubuntu I think is like orphaning them.

I’ve found that is shifting a bit as a lot of newer hardware needs kernel support, and as new people with newer devices enter the linux world they can encounter issues. I know I’ve had to wait for feature to make it to the kernel before I got it for some newer hardware. It can be frustating especially if it’s something essential or realky desirable. Even more so if you aren’t tech savvy.
