The last time I tried WFInfo, it wasn’t working for me on Windows either, so maybe not a Linux issue. But if you get any of the Linux alternatives running, I’d be interested too.

I’m not sure if supports encryption though, which is probably where a dedicated server would be useful.
Well, ideally you encrypt your data before transferring, so the provider never sees your data. I’m using a storagebox to backup btrfs incremental snapshots (using btrbk) and just AES encrypt them locally before sending them over, so I don’t care if the storagebox itself is encrypted.


On the one hand, I’m all for having it configurable per app. But there should also be a global default, so that one doesn’t need to set it for each program. The current proposal sounds as if I would need to activate it once in the compositor (Gnome) and then separately in Firefox. It should probably be centrally handled by the compositor (not sure if this is possible, don’t know how primary selection works on Wayland).


In most programs, you can paste the primary selection with Shift+Insert
I know, my point is just that less people notice that they can also nominate than that they can vote on the finalists, because the latter is promoted more.
Probably yes. But the final voting is advertised on the store front page and usually during the winter sale, sometimes with things like getting cards or such stuff for voting, in addition to the pop-up. At least for me it seems more prominent in the interface than the nominations
Nomination is less prominently advertised in Steam compared to the voting itself, but you can nominate any game for an award via its store page. If I hear of it before it is over, it’s usually because the devs of some game I’m playing are asking for nominations, I don’t remember it being advertised on the store frontpage.
Thank you, from a quick glance it seems to be able to do everything I need. I will try it for my next load test.
The only thing I still use Postman for at work is when running API performance benchmarks, as I wasn’t yet motivated enough to write a curl wrapper to do such tests and plot the results. Especially when doing things like ramp up etc. it becomes more than a simple for-loop.
Can someone recommend an existing command line tool for that?
Also, even zsh scripts don’t read your .zshrc by default.
Well, having a domain is basically documenting your IP publicly. It’s not that risky.
My theory for why it created copies:
The files you listed look like they are all subdirectories from /dev, which is (usually) a separate filesystem.
When you try to move a file or directory across filesystems, the OS can’t just change the link, it has to actually copy the files and then remove the original. As a directory is a set of links to files, and the copies are different files, directories are just newly created with the same name in the new location instead of copying the directory filesystem entry. It looks like mv creates these target directories, before it checks if it actually has permission to remove the source, but checks file permissions, before it copies them
Regarding snapshots, I use a setup, where at the root of the btrfs partition I have the subvolumes “rootfs”, “home”, and a directory “snapshots”. I can boot into a snapshot by changing the mount options for the rootfs in the kernel command line, e.g.setting subvol=snapshots/rootfs-yyyy-mm-dd.
The only difference between a snapshot and a regular subvolume is that snapshots are readonly by default, you can keep a writable copy of a snapshot beside it for recovery purposes, if you need it. As long as nothing is written in it, it shouldn’t use any significant extra space.


I know that, but that does not give apps root access. Unless you mean something else by root access than being run with root privileges


But Shift+insert currently pastes the primary selection, not the copy-paste clipboard. So it doesn’t do the same as Ctrl+V.


Well, the article proposes to use dedicated copy and paste keys. If you don’t have an insert key, you probably don’t have those either.


And best of all, you get an OS that is secure, which traditional Linux distros aren’t due to every app having root access by default.
What? Which distro runs everything as root by default?


Try eject /dev/sr0, that should be your disk drive if it is attached via SATA or USB. /dev/cdrom is usually just a symlink.

I’d say that falls under “birth lottery” as much as wealth inheritance.
A lot of Dockerfiles start with installing dependencies via the base image’s package manager, without specifying exact versions (which isn’t always possible, as most distros don’t keep all history of all packages in their repos). So all your dependencies may have different versions, when you build again.
