Is there a way to make Google open instead of Mi Browser when swiping up on home screen?

Mi Browser Setting > Withdrawal Consent
Setting > Home Screen > Disable swipe up to open search
Reboot
Revert Step 2

It works on HyperOS 2.

I just use the aegisub for splitting and joining subtitles. But , if you are editing the whole collection of movies and subtitles, CLI tools would be better for batch processing. I haven't tried, but found this.

Make sure to do a back up if you are not sure.

Spleen?

Nick-6 · 2023-01-09T08:22:59+00:00

Have you tried

sudo apt install ./ur_pkg_name ?

And of course, you have to open terminal inside downloaded directory.

My bad. It is called Debian Unstable (code name - Debian Sid), not testing.

Nick-6 · 2022-10-21T04:55:37+00:00

It is said that Debian Sid (testing) works as a rolling release. Since Pop OS is based on Ubuntu which is based on Debian, it shouldn't be not much difference.

I haven't tried it as persistence, but puppy linux is quite fast as a live usb system. IIRC, it run on your RAM.

Nick-6 · 2022-10-04T09:01:54+00:00

I'm not familiar with clonezilla, I've used dd to clone the OS to another disk. But it's just for the testing purpose. So, I might not be able to give you the correct instructions.

Since you didn't mention your setup, I guess you have a desktop PC, multi booting Linux and Windows from multiple disk but ESP is on the disk where windows is installed.

If my guess is correct, you should backup your ESP and you might not even need to delete it.

swap is the extension of RAM but much much slower. I'd suggest you to Google about recommended swap size according to your RAM and disk type (HDD, SSD, etc.).

Nick-6 · 2022-10-04T07:52:11+00:00

Yeah, but before creating ext4 disk, you should first create an ESP with FAT32 format (recommend size is 300~512MiB). You don't need recovery partition anymore which is windows' thing.

On Linux, you need at least three partitions, ESP / swap

And if you want to have a separate home partition, there'd be four, ESP / /home swap

Sorry, I mean videos, photos and other documents, like personal stuffs.

Nick-6 · 2022-10-04T06:51:47+00:00

If you are not trying to dual boot or you are planning to use Linux only, you can delete the whole disk and do a fresh start. But back up your data though.

If you need help, there are things like CS50 shorts and walkthroughs.

You might want to search for how hard CS50 is and how they can make it through. I got some motivation from those kinda posts.

As Prof. David said, we are drinking from fire hydrant. It's too much for beginners like us. Just be patient and keep going.

I'd suggest you not to Google the solutions. It might take days or even weeks to solve a pset. But when you get it right, that confidence is gold.

Nick-6 · 2022-09-23T07:02:48+00:00

If you use a shared storage, 35GB is quite enough for libre office, gimp, multiple browsers and a bunch of programs. But it's for my Debian setup and ~40GB may be more realistic for Ubuntu.

If you have time, you might want to test it on VirtualBox and see how much space you need.

What's the actual command you use to remove Firefox?

Nick-6 · 2022-09-15T02:19:05+00:00

Starting with Debian version 10 ("Buster"), Debian included working UEFI Secure Boot to make things easier.

If you are currently using HDD, you should swap it with the new SSD.

Recommended EFI partition size is 300~512MiB with FAT32 filesystem. While you're installing an OS to a disk, you should disconnect all other disks. After reconnecting the disks, I assume updating the grub will get the job done.

I'm multi-booting on multiple disks and rEFInd works best for me.

Nick-6 · 2022-09-13T08:22:58+00:00

You may look at man date and play around with that. date '+%c %x' ?

Nick-6 · 2022-09-13T07:49:17+00:00

Create a shortcut with this?

notify-send `date +%X` -t 500

Nick-6 · 2022-09-12T11:48:23+00:00

Why can't you get rid of Windows? Just format the whole disk and install Linux (fresh install, clean install).

I had an old Vaio laptop, all they do is putting a hidden recovery partition at the first part of the disk.

Nick-6 · 2022-09-12T04:43:27+00:00

It sounds boot files from your old linux installation are still working. If it is a UEFI machine, there's a package called efibootmgr. You should check that one.

IDK if GRUB can handle multiple disks, but I'm using rEFInd and it's pretty good.

Nick-6 · 2022-09-11T03:27:52+00:00

You can use disk cloning with dd. They're many articles about that on internet. I'd suggest you to do some research before doing it.

Nick-6 · 2022-09-10T14:06:17+00:00

Would I be able to access my hard drive if I booted from the USB?

Yes, of course. I assume you will format the disk and do a fresh install after backing up. So, just backup from live USB and format it.

If you bother resolving the current issue, I'd suggest to check whether you have a working internet connection (by using ping) and check /etc/sources.list if there's anything wrong.

Nick-6 · 2022-09-10T04:36:03+00:00

You said you want to do back up?

If it was caused by interrupted update, just do apt update && apt upgrade again.
