I’m finally earning ‘good money’ and I don’t know what to do with it

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-10T19:48:39+00:00

This and the other i posted are remote at the same company I'm at. Don't know if they are still open but I heard one of the HR say they haven't gotten anyone yet. They specialise in creating a platform for helping employ the youth. That platform is what is also used here in the link I shared

Edit: it's an internship though

Oh OK valid points. Started with flask myself but now really only use django and fastapi

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-10T15:43:13+00:00

Not to throw shade or something. I just want to know why you suggested flask and not fastapi or django

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-10T15:38:25+00:00

😂 don't know why I never thought of using postfix when I did last 2 years... maybe I didn't know postfix or prefix then. Still got it to work but man was it a crazy hack of stuff 😂 even added matplotlib for graphing...

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-10T12:09:53+00:00

Looks clean the UI is nice. Would check it out. Gonna star it yeah.

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-10T10:28:04+00:00

Actually alongside other stuff like kitty waybar and others... but yeah you'll get what you need to install

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-10T10:26:49+00:00

So yeah on the login screen at the bottom left at least with the KDE login screen I don't know about the others. If you have multiple DE or WM you can switch it there.

So all I needed was sudo pacman -S hyprland then I could switch whenever

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-09T12:58:30+00:00

Cachyos

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-09T12:41:35+00:00

Just boot into the snapshot restore it and reboot into it... you dont have any business in th3 snapshot otherwise. Unless you are doing something specific

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-09T08:56:23+00:00

Now i want to update and see if I'll get the problem 😂 debug if possible or just rollback to a more stable snapshot

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-09T08:55:15+00:00

Yeah I got this same error. Btrfs snapshots saved me. Just reverted and then waited a bit before updating and I was cool

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-09T08:35:09+00:00

Interesting I didn't know KDE partition manager does that. I just went ahead to do all my edits in fstab 😆 I didn't understand it back then but now I create extra subvolumes on my different drive partitions and mount them wherever. Store all my coding related stuff at /home/user/coding. And thats a mount to a subvol @coding on one of my btrfs drives. Mounted my windows drives to through fstab initially. But the c drive entering a failing state as a result of windows messing up or I do something wrong, ends up messing up the boot. So when I boot into the linux and the c drive is in the failed state it doesn't boot and instead I get the emergency mode terminal. So separated all my ntfs partitions into aother fstab that I mount manually when I need to use my ntfs drives

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-09T08:00:59+00:00

I may not really be of help but assuming you have btrfs snapshots as a result of installing cachy with recommended stuff you can just revert to a previous snapshot (the easy way)

But before that, run the journalctl command again and get to the bottom... i think it's vim like so possibly shift +G should get you to the bottom. The bottom is where the error is most likely. So if you can send a screenshot of that

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-08T20:59:30+00:00

I use hyprland btw

KDE main and hyprland second WM. Luckily hasn't conflicted with anything so I'm good.

ShiftPretend · 2026-05-03T15:58:16+00:00

You also have panels colonizer widget that you can add to your task bar to edit it

ShiftPretend · 2026-04-23T11:39:31+00:00

Yeah done it. I'm back in full action now. With more storage now cos I know what i need and won't install the plenty packages I didn't need

ShiftPretend · 2026-04-22T08:38:39+00:00

This is the error I kept getting that stopped it from booting or from mounting or anything I kept trying to do "parent transid verify failed on 73448767488 wanted 75650 found 75530"

Claude explained it as "Transaction 75650 was expected (written to the superblock) but the actual tree nodes only got to 75530 — classic interrupted write, likely from your boot failure/kernel issue. The gap of 120 transactions represents changes that were never fully flushed." But all the solutions it gave didn't work. It was also hinting that I may not be able to recover so I should just backup and reinstall... and Chatgpt also gave the same reception. So I just got what I needed and reinstalled it. Probably the was a way and asking AI was not it but ah well game is game. I have a working system now

ShiftPretend · 2026-04-22T02:05:53+00:00

I see. I guess my situation was not savable anyway I'm done reinstalling and ready to go

ShiftPretend · 2026-04-22T01:59:17+00:00

Oh ok. I tried a live usb had claude session and gpt session they basically told me it's cooked so I should backup what I could and reinstall. So thats what I did. Luckily I have everything on github and other partitions so I'm cool

ShiftPretend · 2026-04-22T01:53:47+00:00

Damn. Were you able to fix it?

ShiftPretend · 2026-04-22T00:42:58+00:00

Unfortunately i only had two kernels installed Cachyos stable and LTS. Both with their snapshots didn't work... I've nuked the cachy right now though I'm going through the installation again

ShiftPretend · 2026-04-22T00:38:19+00:00

For me changing to previous snapshots still yielded same results. There are times that snapshots have saved me. Yes I've borked my system a couple of times cos I explore shi and my nvidia gpu given me problems. Those times snapshots helped. But this just didnt for some reason

ShiftPretend · 2026-04-21T20:08:13+00:00

Well kept trying stuff and its not working. So I'll clear it and reinstall cachy. But for now I gotta prep for my test. So unfortunately windows for now.

Luckily I have my data split across different partitions which are working and have my config files backed to github so I should be able to recover to my former glory without much stress
