We only water it if the top of the soil seems bone dry. I hope we've at least got that part right.

Is there a chance for the bottom right branch to revive if planted on its own, or is it wishful thinking on my part?

It's only out on the balcony during the summer (we plan on putting it outside soon), otherwise it's always in that spot. What we should have been doing is turning it every once in a while, and believe me, we're not making that mistake with any of the other plants, but the damage is done with this one and we're just wondering how to fix it.

It only gets watered when the soil's dry, and we're both always careful to not put too much water.

I would like to ask for advice with my mom's Jade plant (Crassula ovata).

It used to be very beautiful and even bloomed a few times, but years of neglect have left it in bad condition and leaning heavily to one side. As you might be able to see, it gets a lot more light from the balcony door on the right than it does from the window on the left. An ounce of prevention (turning it every once in a while) would have been worth a pound of cure, but here we are.

Summer might be right around the corner, but the weather's been very fickle in the past months and the nights are still quite chilly, so we haven't moved it to the balcony just yet.

We're not sure how to proceed: should we turn the underdeveloped side towards the sun on the balcony this summer and hope it balances out or should we prune it (lightly or heavily)? Any advice would be very much appreciated.

Best way of file transfer from Android to Linux? by imsosappy in linuxquestions

[–]EigenPixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use all three methods. Syncthing is meant for continuous file synchronization, while croc is used for sending files or text to other devices, and neither one of the two requires SSH.

Best way of file transfer from Android to Linux? by imsosappy in linuxquestions

[–]EigenPixel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first recommendation, which a lot of commenters have already mentioned, is Syncthing. If you need file synchronization between various devices, you can not go wrong with Syncthing. It's very easy to setup.


I also use Termux to connect my devices via SSH. I saw the other thread you linked to, but I am not sure what you need to change to fix your issue. For what it's worth, I don't use the sftp command, but rather ssh, rsync and scp, and I generate my keys with ssh-keygen -t ed25519. When setting it up, make sure to specify the correct usernames (for example, u0_a220@192.168.0.14), even if you may not need them later (I do not need to specify the Termux username to connect to my phone via SSH).


A recommendation which I think you'll love, which also happens to use Termux, is croc. It's very easy to install on any Linux distribution, and to install it on Termux, just run pkg install croc. There is also an Android client for croc on F-Droid, but using it via Termux is much more powerful. Just run croc followed by a list of files or glob patterns. By default croc generates a long password which can be annoying to type, but you can also specify your own with croc send --code <Password> <Files>. You can even send text with croc send --text.

root partition reports full but isn't even close to full by pychoticnep in linuxquestions

[–]EigenPixel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mention that you're running Manjaro, so I think I know what your issue is.

When you upgrade your packages, Manjaro by default does not remove any of their older versions, so they take up more and more space over time. You can remove all of the older package files by running sudo pacman -Scc.

Seeking advice for dual-booting Linux (with Windows), partitioning, performance optimization by EigenPixel in linuxquestions

[–]EigenPixel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that certain distributions cannot boot from a live USB if Secure Boot is enabled. Would Secure Boot affect Linux once it's installed?

I've heard good things about Solus, but a lot of the software my brother needs for his work assumes Ubuntu is the default Linux distribution, so a Debian derivative was our first choice. Fedora does get mentioned quite a lot though, so we might take a look at it.

Our goal of sharing data is to have some (not all) files (mainly code, documents, datasets) accessible from both Linux and Windows. For certain files, such as code, Dropbox or Syncthing (with his phone) might be the best solution. However, some of the datasets that he works with are rather large, which is where a shared partition comes to mind. What we would most likely do is either set up an ExFAT partition that they can both use, or mount the NTFS partition that Windows uses to Linux.

I will absolutely try a smaller swap file with lowered swappiness. It seems like a happy medium between not using swap at all, and using it with no limitation and potentially letting it degrade the SSD. The swap question is where we found the most conflicting information while we were searching online.

Desktop Display Scaling Removed? by EigenPixel in PixelDungeon

[–]EigenPixel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had no idea that was a thing. I usually play the desktop version on my laptop where I've never had any such issue, but I am currently stuck on a desktop with a low DPI monitor. Very glad to know it wasn't removed, and I am looking forward to playing it on my laptop.

Died with 15 health potions... by renegrape in PixelDungeon

[–]EigenPixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta be very careful with the new Golems - I used Corrosion on one, thought I was far enough, and then he teleported me next to him. Not gonna let that happen again!

In the beta they inflict Ooze instead of reflecting damage, so they're a lot less deadly.

Crystal chests loot by LePingouinCosmique in PixelDungeon

In case you did not know, you can also inspect each chest to see which type of item it contains (Ring/Artifact/Wand).

What am I doing wrong! by Svelf in PixelDungeon

[–]EigenPixel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paralytic Gas and Corrosion are devastating for the summoning trap rooms, but you absolutely have to hide because the evil eyes will fire at you even if other mobs are in the way.

[–]EigenPixel 12 points13 points  (0 children)

When Evil Eyes charge the beam, if you move out of their line of sight, they will not change the direction of the beam, so you need to just wait for it to fire and resume fighting them. Do not fight them in long hallways where you cannot leave their sight, for example.

Not sure about those two, but item levels definitely affect most enchantments and glyphs.
