The way I understand it, ufw is a frontend for iptables. So no.

This is a helpful blogpost on disabling input devices in Wayland

You don’t. Even if you’re happy to support the developers of the software you use (which is great!), I think it makes more sense to download and give it the spin first, then donate later.

Where indexing and searching mails is concerned, notmuch is the best I’ve seen. Do note that this is not an e-mail client, it only indexes, tags and searches (following the “UNIX philosophy” of doing one job well).

I personally use it with neomutt as a mail user agent, which is almost certainly not what you want. Notmuch supports other clients but they’re all pretty arcane.

So this is not a recommendation, just a glimpse into advanced e-mail setups I guess.

Nice, I didn’t know about the all selector

No need for external programs:

for_window [class="^.*"] inhibit_idle fullscreen
for_window [app_id="^.*"] inhibit_idle fullscreen 

I don’t think downgrading the curl library is promising here. curlftpfs seems to be unmaintained. I recommend looking for alternatives or alternative workflows.

Fixed in curl, but not in a curlftpfs, apparently. Look at the comments on the accepted answer.

Seems to be a known bug: https://github.com/curl/curl/discussions/14299

Error setting curl:

That doesn’t seem like a complete error message to me. Is there any more information? Maybe with the -d (debug) flag?

Same! This works really well.

Just want to point out that, while it’s a mess in practice, there is a correct place for these files and the problem is that many applications ignore it. Configuration files should be written to an aptly named folder in ~/.config/ (or more precisely, in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME which is set to ~/.config/ in most systems). ~/.local/share/ (or $XDG_DATA_HOME, respectively) is for user data, which is different from config.

Not exactly what you are looking for, but modern shells like fish or zsh (probably?) are good at suggesting completions from history. fzf is another great tool for that. Both are super useful for remembering and repeating commands.

Good clarification and advice.

There are so many considerations when “repairing” an installation, that I would definitely suggest a reinstall here.

Yes, for data recovery you really just need something to access the drives.

If you have backups, reinstall.

If you don’t, boot a “live CD” USB stick and make a backup, then reinstall.

Then think about how this happened and how to avoid it in the future:

I tried updating Kubuntu to the newest version, and it got screwed up the first time,

In either case, its a quick copy/paste on my part, so /shrug.

I was thinking “okay this somewhat unconventional but whatever” until I read this. Use greasemonkey or something for the love of Christ!

Agreed, but use sway instead of i3 for Wayland support.

Pretty sure codeberg.org uses forgejo under the hood.

Another very solid option for self hosting is just adding a git user to a server with git installed, initiate bare repositories there, then talk to them with [email protected]:repo-name

This! It’s just the name of the software, not sure why everyone’s getting so worked up about it.

I think it’s a brilliant use case for federation, hope this sees some adoption!
