Gotta say, it was painful hearing only the first part of that track over and over. There's another 1/3 that comoletes the comedy of it

Of course, an argument can be made that this is the evolution of the number of companies that used a variance of "AAA" to appear first in the phone books of old

I'm on a discord server with a Win9x era masochist that has made Streets of SimCity, SimCopter, and SimCity 2000, among other games, work on modern systems. His patchers are here: http://krimsky.net/patchers.html

While you're not completely incorrect about it not being Linux's fault, trying to gatekeep "anywhere outside of Steam support" is just as unhelpful as game developers not focusing on Linux.

Does that same logic extend to not-Steam's ProtonDB, a 3rd party website for tracking how well games play on Linux using Proton?

Somehow, despite being chronically online since xkcd had only double digit comics, I have only just now discovered this webcomic. Thank you, random stranger, for posting this.

Ah, HTC... They were my first smartphone, though it was old school WinMo slider. I later had the m8, which I still miss dearly...

In addition to rsync as phx mentioned, you can use photorec to get a deeper scan

It breathed life into my Captivate and Infuse phones, beautifully at that. I miss the boldness of Android then.

You did well pointing that out. Imma just restate it here for those scrolling quickly:

we do participate in online targeted advertising and use analytics

Turns out, yes it was. For Samba shares, SELinux requires every file to have the sudo semanage fcontext --add --type "samba_share_t" command run on it. And of course, the new files wouldn't have had this like the ones that were present when I was setting up Samba...

I expanded my search to making a post on the Fedora forums, where an @/glb pointed out that fact, and thankfully was able to also state that adding it to fstab for the drive will automate that process at boot. So the issue is now solved, thanks to glb over here: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/file-sharing-woes-samba-nfs-sftp/91112/13

Thanks for responding!

So I don't know what file access logs I should look at. All the samba logs have essentially had nothing at all in them except for variations on [2023/09/28 23:50:31, 0] ../../source3/rpc_server/rpc_worker.c:1125(rpc_worker_main) rpcd_winreg version 4.18.6 started. Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2023

so it doesn't seem like they're going to be of any help here...

The new files do show and launch on the server itself just fine.

Stopping samba does produce the expected timeout errors on clients

Renamed file does show as renamed. Bonus, a new file I created on the server from context menu "New text file" entry does also show on clients

Server is running on Fedora Linux 38

When you need service, but data is blocked by all the steel in the ceiling/roof. I've used it, but with my VPN active. I wonder if they're now going to try to block VPN services?

Given I hadn't heard about it prior to your comment, I'd venture to say it's already working

Yeah, them deciding that no stage is sacred and not allow for any offline or private play was extremely frustrating and made it so that I just lost the ability to give a shit at all about the game

"Valleys" was the key word there. Even if the distance isn't bad, a mountain between you and the broadcast tower can make 20 miles look like 70 in terms of signal

I just had one of these yesterday. I support lottery machines over the phone, so retail employees call me if there's an issue with them

Well, countertop terminal went offline. Employee swears up and down that he's rebooted "5 times already". I ask him to power cycle the modem while we're on the phone, and he immediately replies OK. I then hear the distinct beeps of the terminal rebooting.

So I ask, "just to be sure, you unplugged and replugged the power to the small box with two antennas that says BRAND, right?" Immediate response that cut into my question: "yeah yeah yeah!" more terminal beeps

sigh

"You mean logging off and back on isn't rebooting? What about this button on my monitor?"

Gotta say, I'm pretty content with kbin

Yeah, this straight up happened to a dude I was rather fond of. We were working in desktop support for a big fintech company, and he used his not-quite-admin privileges to bypass the bootlock on the laptops for personal use. I warned him that it was a bad idea, he brushed it off. Was gone by the next week.

Unpopular opinion, but I thought his single, Oh Fuckles, It's Knuckles, was a masterpiece
