Yes! This worked! Thank you!

But then I wouldn’t be able to see photos on my instance. I want to see them, I just don’t want the federated cache being saved on my SSD.

That’s fine with me, as I’m the only user in my instance.

Though I do still think this is a huge miss on pictrs to not allow the admin to browse the photos stored on their own server. I mean, someone could upload an illegal photo, not post it, then send the URL that only they could possibly know to whichever relevant government agency anonymously and potentially ruin the life of the admin.

Thank you so much for contributing and making this much needed fix.

I actually thought of that. And it’s even hosted on sh.itjust.works via pictrs.

Awesome! Thank you for this link!

I agree! Or let us disable caching images from other instances. I’m not interested at all in rehosting images that other users on other instances upload. That’s too much of a legal liability to me.

You got me!

You must be amazingly lucky. Bluetooth has been nothing but issues for me for 15 years of use, across a plethora of host and client devices, OSes, mobile and desktop, all Bluetooth versions, proprietary implementations (game controllers), cheap devices, expensive devices, ranges, etc. Bluetooth has improved a lot in the past 5 years, but it’s still not good enough imo. A PS5 controller can’t stay reliably connected to my steam deck that is docked by my TV while I am sitting on my couch, yet an Xbox controller with a wifi-based USB dongle works fine.

My current setup is using the former, but I did the latter for so many years and the only issue I had was the clock would get fucked up after booting Windows. But I agree, it’s much safer to have your Windows SSD physically removed when installing Linux so grub doesn’t get installed on the same SSD as Windows. I wouldn’t do it with all the horror stories I have read. My good experience was probably dumb luck.

I always dual boot and have never had an issue in many years. I wonder what I am doing differently.

I did it recently. I just plugged a live USB into one USB slot and an empty USB stick into another slot. I unplugged my NVMe while I did it so it wouldn’t install grub on my Windows SSD.

Anything that is desirable is going to be more expensive. I share initials with a certain shoe company and a comic book company. Getting any domain name with my initials, even one of the “cheaper” TLDs is insanely expensive. Like $60K USD a year expensive.

icecream.social is available, and I really want it, but I just can’t justify the $800 a year, even if the name is amazing.

Instead of aliases, I use variables that I set in my .bashrc.

For example, on WSL I have export WINDOWS_HOME=/mnt/c/Users/username. Then I can just cd $WINDOWS_HOME. Or cp $WINDOWS_HOME/Downloads/some_file .

That’s actually really cute.

I know a family where a pair of brothers are married to a pair of sisters, and they all four had the same last name before marriage.

I’ll try it out today. I’m about to start my workday, so it will have to be in a few hours. Fingers crossed I can have a PR in about 16 hours from now.

Thank you for this! Awesome work!

By the way, this looks easy to put in a container. Have you considered doing that?

You’ve never been to Texas. It’s still 90°F at midnight. It never cools down.

That sounds awful. How was the pain level?

I scratched my eye once with my fingernail when I was about 12 or 13. It just felt like I had something in my eye constantly for a week.

Why is USB insistent on having terrible naming schemes?
