Ah, I see. What kind of disk usage are we talking about over e.g. one month? I am (at least for now) not necessarily interested in long term storage (but the data hoarder in me might quickly change that).

I got a laptop from Tuxedo 1.5 years ago when I made the switch to Linux. I have been happy with it, despite some minor issues. In my experience, they have provided great technical support when something goes wrong as well that I am unable to troubleshoot myself. I am running Tuxedo OS, and have not tried to use any other distros on this machine yet (but have done so on other).

More so I am very happy with the switch to Linux (coming from about a decade on macOS, with Windows before that).

It was made available today. You are entirely correct, it was not very interesting. And the data seems to be lacking, only going back a couple of months (except some categories that went back a couple of years) even though I requested a full log since account creation. This might because I have purged my activity logs before.

Do you use KeePassDX on Android? If so, how do you access the vault from Nextcloud?

What is the benefit of using GMaps WV over the web client in a browser?

Hehe yeah, mobile gaming seems awful to me as well. Never heard about external fans. Seems like going out of your way to have a sub-par gaming experience.

Oh, I found Dolphin to be a superior experience to File Explorer in Win 10. I had a particular hatred for how it would, when copying files inside a OneDrive folder and trying to instantly rename them, decide to mark the entire name field after about one second (when sync of new file is complete), causing me to erase everything I wrote in that second and having to start naming it again. In my last job, this occurred on a very frequent basis.

I use Fluent Reader Lite. Fits my established workflow of consuming RSS-feeds well.

Have they been cross-posting 1:1 between Mastadon and the platform formerly known as Twitter so far?

[-] cyberwolfie@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

Cool, I'll check it out. I am not experiencing any issues with Fluent Reader with my use case though.

As far as I can tell, these are the methods apt uses to get information from the repositories that is listed within sources.list and within the sources.list.d directory. The number of subprocesses almost matches the number of sources there - in reality there are 14 listed, not 13 as is seen in the ps output. I can find one entry that starts with mirror+file, but otherwise there are 13 https entries. So that last line I am not sure what is doing.

Anyways, it seems to me that it gets stuck somewhere updating the repositories list. Right now, I'm stuck with three questions:

  1. I'm still unsure as to whether it would be safe to kill the process, as I could imagine that having a corrupted depencies files could be really bad?
  2. Also, would killing the process automatically release the lock, or would I need to remove that myself after?
  3. Is there any reason to believe that this would even work, seeing as this happens everytime on boot. I imagine that if I kill the process, delete the lock and try to run sudo apt update I just end up the same place again.

I use a Xiaomi Smart Band 7 and pair it with Gadgetbridge, and it works fine for my purposes, which is HR-monitoring during the day, sleep and workout sessions. I rarely interface with the watch itself (which is by design), so if you want more functionality out of your watch, then this might be a little on the light side feature wise. I tend to keep Bluetooth off, so I connect to it maybe once a day to sync data with Gadgetbridge, which I again export for analysis. A bit clunky to connect - I have to search for it first in the Gadgetbridge app, and only when it has found it can I attempt to reconnect. Maybe this is easily fixable, but I have not bothered to do it because I only sync once a day.

You do need to obtain a key first though, which requires a login to the Xiaomi servers. I used a throwaway e-mail for the registration. Gadgetbridge has no access to the internet.
