  • Thanks for the update. In my recent research and backing up stuff, there was numerous content that are no longer available. But the entries are there, only the files are not. I think some files appeared back at later time. My assumption was most data is coming back slowly from a backup, if they have any. Torrent and metadata files are generated automatically. That means if they are deleted, then they would be rebuild after some time, I assume. There is so much data, I have no idea how long this would take…

    I will keep looking at some files again and again, to see if they come back. Otherwise we lost a lot of data and history.


  • You are right. I just tested it on my mobile browser and it just says “Perhaps on a desktop browser?”.

    But I found a way to make it kind of work, but its not as good or seemless like on a real desktop PC. It halfway works if you switch your browser mode to Desktop mode. In your browser menu (the 3 dots, what’s called? hamburger menu?) should have an option to enable “Desktop site”. Then reload page and if you click the gun, it should pop out. Now try to click an element on the webpage, maybe the text. If it does not fall, click again. Unfortunately you can’t (or I can’t) hold an element and drag it around.

    It’s really a shame.





  • https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html#Miscellaneous-Commands

    Add to your .bashrc following lines:

    bind '"\C- ":shell-expand-line'
    bind '"\C-x":edit-and-execute-command'
    
    • Control+Space: Now you can expand variables, aliases, !492 history commands, the tilde without executing the line. Now you can make changes to the command.
    • Control+x: Opens the current command in an external editor (such as Vi, or whatever is setup for VISUAL or EDITOR variable). Now you can edit the command and if you save the temporary file and exit editor, the modified command will be executed. If you do not save, the unmodified command before launching the editor will be executed.




  • I didn’t say “personal package manager”. Do you refer to the part “basically my own AUR package”? pacman, the package manager of Archlinux that is also used in EndeavourOS, allows for installing custom packages. There is another tool part of Archlinux that let you build custom packages. These custom packages can be installed on your system, which is then seen like a normal package and handled this way with all the defined dependencies and information about the package. You can install the package from a local location, it does not need to be online repository.

    Then you can upload it to the AUR, which is exactly that: Arch User Repository. But you don’t have to upload it. Either way such a custom build package is what I referred to my own AUR package. For more information see: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository




  • Probably. I’m definitely not a fan of Garuda Linux (never used it to be honest). The styling and the bloat are not my taste. But the most important thing to me is, if I can trust those developers and maintainers? And I don’t trust most non common distros. Looking at their webpage, they also have a KDE lite version with less bloat and bare minimum packages to get started. This is actually awesome!


  • EndeavorOS. Because I wanted to have a rolling release distribution that is always up to date, and one that is good supported by maintainers and community. Good documentation is very important to me. And I trust the team behind EndeavorOS and Archlinux.

    Also the manual approach of many things and the package manager based on Archlinux is very nice. I also like the building of custom packages that is then installed with the package manager (basically my own AUR package). The focus on terminal stuff without too much bloat by default is also a huge plus.
