  • How can I easily and conveniently transfer files wirelessly between my linux computer and android phone?

    Jump

  • Lot of people mentioning kde connect. I'm going to take a moment to clarify, kde connevts functionality is modular. you need the sshfs package for it to mount the phones filesystem over ssh. Once you've done that, it works pretty normally.

  • How can i rsync over my network without using ssh?

    Jump

  • tbh why not jsut set them up with an ssh key that doesn't have an associated passphrase? Besides that, if you don't care about encrypting like you say, then you could replace all calls to ssh with telnet.

    At least that's my immediate thoughts.

  • Jesus fucking christ this is a hell of a project, Ill finish reading when I get home today.

    Hats off to you for pulling it off. Why is it that every time I read something by a NixOS person I get the inpressiom that they are very smart but are completely mad.

  • bcachefs is now in linux-next!

    Jump

  • bcache is inherently designed to be an ssd cache that sits in front of slower bigger disks. Bcachefs is an extension of this into it's own filesystem. iirc the words of the bcache creator were: 'we've implemented 80% of a filesystem here, might as well go the rest of the way'. So how much it thrashes a disk is based on what position you give it in the architecture. The caching ssds are going to be used heavily, taking advantage of their fast random access to manage all random accesses, while sequential operations generally go to the slower disk that's set as the background device. The background disks will tend to be accessed less.

    So yeah, it's based on what kind of disk and position in the bcache, and what caching options you enable. If you want to look into it further, bcache is fs agnostic, so if you can find some tests that have been done for bcache enabled for classic linux filesystems, like ext4 and xfs, that include hardware degradation info, you'll probably end up with similar usage and hardware wear with the actual bcachefs.

  • Finally, I've been waiting forever for this. btrfs is a mess and zfs in oracle jail forever. Finally we cna have good COW on linux without stupid hoops.

  • You can't call yourself a Phoenix Wright fan if you haven't played the spinoffs

    Jump

  • Hey, big AA fan here, whoever told you 2 was a masterpiece must have been trolling.

    I played AAI 1 ob emu, for 2 I watched the prozd press buttons and talk voiced playthrough. WHO'S READY FOR QUERKUS FUCKING ALBA TO DEMAND ANOTHER MIND CHESS SECTION BEFORE THE END BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY DONE 20 OF THESE.

    It drags on, a lot of the puzzles are dumb, Kay can honestly get really annoying, the little thief is a worse disregard for the laws of physics than just about anything in the other games (including everything invented by iris and herlock in GAA, and all the spirit shit, and the stuff in dd).

    It suffers heavily from the same issue that plagues the rest of the series. Once you figure out what's going on you have to find each specific individual step the game wants before you can say what the scenario is (which tends to become really fucking obvious around the halfway point).

    I would never recommend actively playing the AAI entries, that prozd playthrough is the best way to experience them imo.

  • Which cracks and repacs works best on linux?

    Jump

  • there's a group called johncena141 who do linux specific repacks. They put the windows game in a dwarfs read only compressed archive, and then have an editable layer on top of it where saves and changes get written. The windows games are put into a wine wrapper and then you can run them while they're still compressed. It's pretty cool, but can be a bit finicky. Getting dwarfs installed can be a pain depending on your system. I find their stuff can be very hit or miss, but I like that they exist.

    Besides that, ymmv with all the other repacks. Sometimes fitgirl works fine for me, sometimes it fucks up completely. Same goes for dodi. though I've found dodi to be a bit more reliable on wine than fitgirl.

    That's my two cents on stuff.

    I need to replace one line in a ton of . json files

    Jump

  • I have made a python script and ran it on a clone of your git repo to confirm it works, simply run it at the root directory of wherever the files are, it will walk through and find module.json and do the replace.

     python3
        
#!/usr/bin/env python3

import re
import os

import fileinput

pattern = re.compile(r'(?P<pre>.+)\"compatibility\":{\"minimum\":\"(?P\d+)\",\"verified\":\"(?P\d+)\"},(?P.+)')

def make11(match):
    if match.groupdict().get('min', None) and match.groupdict().get('ver', None):
        return f"{match.groupdict()['pre']}\"compatibility\":{{\"minimum\":\"11\",\"verified\":\"11\"}},{match.groupdict()['post']}"

for root, dirs, files in os.walk("."):
    for file in files:
        if file == "module.json":
            for line in fileinput.input(f"{root}/{file}", inplace=True):
                print(re.sub(pattern, make11, line))

    </pre>

    edit: lemmy is fucking with the formatting and removing the fucking regex group names, which will bork it. I've tried fixing it, dm me if you want me to send a downloadable link to the script

  • I also agree sed and some regex is your best bet

    I recommend formatting the regex with regex101.com, I'm down to help you if you post some examples

    Additionally there is a cli tool, I think jq or something like that, for processing json on the command line

    I have foundry too, let me see if I can find the files that need to be updated

  • When do you know you need a larger disk?

    Jump

  • Take this with a grain of salt, cause I did a rig upgrade not too long ago, and was accidentally shipped far more drives than I ordered, so my storage space is silly.

    Instead of replacing the drive in your machine, maybe try getting a nas or something. You can store a lot of your files there and keep the drive in your rig for things that need to be fast, like games. Also, I usually base my storage increase purposes based on how much room I need for backups. If there isn't enough room for me to do a full compressed backup, it's time to add more. Besides that, I replace the drive with most of the other parts in one large upgrade.

  • btrfs appreciation post

    Jump

  • I'm glad it' working well for you, but I don't think it' true to say that btrfs gets beyond its fair share of flak. It gets the exactly correct amount of flak for what it is. Every place I have worked at that wanted to deploy a COW fs on like, a NAS or server, has always gone with zfs. btrfs is such a mess it never even enters the conversation. Even if it can have its bugs ironed out, the bcache dev was right in pointing out that its on disk formats are poorly designed for their job, and cannot be revised except in a new version of the entire fs. I hope bcachefs gets merged into the kernel next year, that's a filesystem I would actually trust with my data.
