Ich glaube nicht, dass das für oberflächlichere Anpassungen (was den meisten Leuten ausreichen wird) ein Problem ist. Da ist Standardisierung eher eine Hilfe, auch für die Entwicklung von Werkzeugen die auf mehreren Distributionen laufen sollen.

Die systemd Diskussion will ich hier gar nicht führen, ich glaube da kennen wir beide die meisten Argumente schon, und für mich ist das kein Hügel zum drauf sterben. Wenn du damit aneinandergerätst bist du auf jeden Fall deutlich tiefer drin als die meisten - du hast dafür meinen Respekt, versteh mich nicht falsch, aber wer lange in der Tiefe taucht verliert leicht die Oberfläche aus dem Blick. Und der Oberfläche gilt mein Kommentar.

Ich glaub ich hab dich richtig verstanden. Ich versuch bloß auch anderen zu vermitteln, dass die Bastelei ein Bonus ist und kein Muss mehr. Gerade für Leute, die weniger bastelfreudig sind sondern einfach nur anmachen und Netflix schauen wollen, ist das vielleicht eine wertvolle Beruhigung.

Auf der Arbeit gerade 11 bekommen. Ich kotz am Strahl.

Linux ist ja nicht mal mehr Bastelei. Klar, du kannst basteln, das ist das schöne, aber für vieles musst du das gar nicht mehr. Gestern ein neues Spiel gekauft, runtergeladen, dann plötzlich dran gedacht "ouh, läuft das überhaupt?" weil ich es so gewohnt bin mittlerweile, dass das einfach tut. Hat es auch, zu niemandes Überraschung.

I don't even think Magnus intended any serious effect, let alone the scale that the meme communities escalated to. I agree he was probably being a sore loser, throwing out a frustrated and immature "I don't believe I could have lost fairly" line.

I'm sure Hans could have lived with that accusation if there wasn't any significant evidence and chalked it up as just that, being a sore loser. The internet went and blew it up though, with little regard for how that would affect Hans, so what Magnus intended doesn't help him much in the end.

Are you familiar with the term Stochastic Terrorism? The upshot is that enough public support may encourage individuals to take action against high-profile targets.

Imagine, for a secone, that you're one of those 1%. According to the census, there are about 340 million people in the US. If just 50% of them hate you, that's 170 million. If 99.9% of them do nothing, that still leaves 170 thousand willing to act. Statistically, you'd have one potential killer every two thousand people. Sure, the actual figure might be much lower. Do you know for sure? How would you estimate that?

Let's run with that statistic for now. How many people do you interact with or pass by daily? Weekly? Monthly? How many of those potential 170k might intentionally seek you out? The more wealthy or prominent you are, the greater of a target you become, but it may also depend on personal wrongs, leaving a lot of uncertainty and hard to predict variables. How would you know whether there's a target on your back? Or multiple?

If you thought you were invincible, that deterrence by law enforcement and public distaste for violence would prevent any such events, that illusion has been shattered now. All it takes is one slip-up of security, one person with nothing to lose and the right luck.

Would you feel safe?

Until recently, we all thought nothing would happen. Now something has happened. I think at this point it's impossible to predict whether that will inspire copycats, whether the public approval may encourage more disruptice mass action or whether it will actually go back to complacency and stay an isolated incident. That unpredictability should give them pause.

My Objective:
Repurpose an obsolete OS Filesystem as pure data storage, removing both the stuff only relevant for the OS and simplifying the directory structure so I don't have to navigate to <mount point>/home/<username>/<Data folders like Videos, Documents etc.>.

I'm tight on money and can't get an additional drive right now, so I'd prefer an in-place solution, if that is feasible. "It's not, just make do with what you have until you can upgrade" is a valid answer.


Technical context:

I've got two disks, one being a (slightly ancient) 2TB HDD with an Ubuntu installation (Ext4), the second a much newer 1TB SSD with a newer Nobara installation. I initially dual-booted them to try if I like Nobara and have the option to go back if it doesn't work out for whatever reason.

I have grown so fond of Nobara that it has become my daily driver (not to mention booting from an SSD is so much faster) and intend to ditch my Ubuntu installation to use the HDD as additional data storage instead. However, I'd prefer not to throw away all the data that's still on there.

I realise the best solution would be to get an additional (larger) drive. I have a spare slot in my case and definitely want to do that at some point, but right now, money is a bit of a constraint, so I'm curious if it's possible and feasible to do so in-place.

Particularly, I have different files are spread across different users because I created a lot of single-purpose-users for stuff like university, private files, gaming, other recreational things that I'd now like to consolidate. As mentioned in the objective, I'd prefer to have, say, one directory /Documents, one /Game Files, one /Videos etc. on the secondary drive, accessible from my primary OS.


Approaches I've thought of:

  1. Manually create the various directories directly in the filesystem root directory of the second drive, move the stuff there, eventually delete the OS files, user configs and such once I'm sure I didn't miss anything
  2. Create a separate /data directory on the second drive so I'm not directly working in the root directory in case that causes issues, create the directories in there instead, then proceed as above
  3. Create a dedicated user on the second OS to ensure it all happens in the user space and have a single home directory with only the stuff I later want to migrate
  4. Give up and wait until I can afford the new drive

Any thoughts?

Most international experts consider the outbreak of a third world war unlikely in spite of global surges of violence

Not mundane, but the implications would be horrifying to 1923 society still recovering from "The Great War".
