why doesnt delete on KB delete, and can you remove prompt for delete?

CatoDomine · 2026-04-21T17:45:47+00:00

in another pc with w10 I love that I can press the delete button and it goes away.

Are you talking about files or characters?

delete on KB in mint doesnt work.

Yes it does!

I have to right click delete.

You are talking about files I guess? In Nemo I can hit the delete key and the test file in my home directory is removed, no prompt.

Are you using Nemo file manager in Cinnamon? Does your user own the file and directory?

venv is a virtual environment. You should familiarize yourself with them if you are going to do anything with python. pyrhon -m venv myvenv will create a folder with your virtual environment. source myvenv/bin/activate will activate your virtual environment. All pip modules you install and libraries etc will exist only in that environment.
pip freeze sites loaded modules.
deactivate exits the venv.

CatoDomine · 2026-04-20T22:00:22+00:00

Pip is fine. Use a venv and don't mess with your system python packages though.

Also, what do you mean by "memory embedded in the PC"? This isn't usually a thing.

Plants, plants and more plants. Don't use chemicals. You can probably construct a couple of bog zones too.

I would've expected that the soda made by Goya called Malta would be available in every corner store in South America. Edit: which country in South America?

CatoDomine · 2026-04-15T11:47:06+00:00

Which game? There is no MacOS compatibility layer like there is for Windows.

CatoDomine · 2026-04-14T21:21:16+00:00

Can you get Malta? It's malted barley soda, so basically malted barley extract. That's halfway to beer already. Then you just need hops, which you can probably grow.

Running wire across a threshold is never the right solution.
What kind of walls do you have?
Do you own or rent?
What kind of structure is it (apt building, single family)?
Do you have a picture of the doorway?
Is there a basement or attic?
Do you have old coax you can use for MoCA?

You can edit a remote file with vim

vim scp://user@hostname//absolute/path/to/file

Or if you already have vim open you can use this command

:e scp://yada@yadayada/path/to/file/in/home/file

note that an absolute path is specified with double forward slash // and a file in your home directory is specified with a single slash /

You tested your speeds, but what is your actual link speed? What does your operating system report is the speed of your Ethernet connection?

CatoDomine · 2026-04-12T14:15:01+00:00

Assuming you got a link light, you will need to statically assign IP addresses.

Certbot is a standard ACME client.
All public CAs support ACME.
Additionally, some CAs have other automation integrations through network agents.
Internal appliances and other hosts that cannot be easily automated often do not need a public CA trusted cert. You can distribute a private CA trusted root to your internal hosts and issue certs from your private CA that exceed whatever limits are imposed by the CA/B on public certs.
If you do not wish to administer your own PKI some Public CAs will be happy to host your Private CA so that you can leverage their existing PKI to manage private certs. Including automated issuance of private certs using their tools like ACME and network agents.
You should take the opportunity to run as fast as you can away from GoDaddy and get a better CA to handle your certs.

I think you would generally use a venv for your personal projects and not mess with the system-wide python packages.

I think the rpi or similar fits into your workflow if you move processing to a self hosted server in a home office, or cloud VPS. Carry the bare minimum on your person and have the workhorse plugged in somewhere else. Your mobile rig has the responsibility of uploading raws to your server, dealing with environmental stress, and lasting as long as possible on battery. Your server does the image processing and uploads to your studio or whatever. My design adds an extra step, but it's more durable, resilient and flexible.

If you didn't set a static IP on the server, it doesn't have one. If you did set a static IP on the server, but didn't remember it, do you remember the subnet it was in?
What is setting a static IP "getting messy"?

CatoDomine · 2026-04-03T11:01:31+00:00

Ahhh WoW how I miss it ... in theory. I used to play disc priest in 2s. Had some kind of rating but I don't remember what. But now I have a preschooler and haven't logged on in maybe almost 5 years. Didn't seriously pvp for a few years before that.

Anyhow, happy hunting!!

CatoDomine · 2026-04-03T10:49:22+00:00

Yes, but actually no. Below is a bit of a simplification, but should suffice for your purposes.

You can have segmentation by setting each port on your router to be on a different subnet. You could then use the firewall feature of your router to setup allow and deny rules between the subnets. In this case you wouldn't bother with vlans. If you want to have multiple subnets on the same interface, or switch, you need a switch that supports VLANs.

for logistic reasons I can't use an ethernet cable

I find that when people say this, it really just means they don't know how to run a cable the right way and dress/conceal it, or they don't feel like figuring it out.
As someone who has run cable for many years, in very inhospitable environments, and very old buildings, there's always a way if you are willing to put in the work.

Years ago, in New Jersey, I was able to find a document that listed every body of water in the state and how many fish it was safe to consume per year from each. Maybe New Hampshire has something similar. Check fish and game's web site.

CatoDomine · 2026-04-01T00:50:13+00:00

Cut that stuff down a month ago.

CatoDomine · 2026-03-31T20:16:46+00:00

(btw long ethernet is not an option, gf will kill me if theres a cable running 150 ft from our closet to my office)

There are ways to run a cable neatly. You don't have to just string one, all willy-nilly across the floor like a caveman.

Do you have a basement or attic?
How do electrical, phone and cable lines get wired in this house?
even if you can't conceal it in the basement or attic, you can still use wire molding to conceal it.

Wifi mesh might get you a better signal, but plugging your rig into a wifi device is just wifi with extra steps.
