I'm setting up a new storage volume. Does it ever make sense to use btrfs?
Daniel Baker
Bump for stallmam
Kayden Sanders
COW is pretty cool, other than that, idk anything about btrfs... i think ZFS is the future
Asher Clark
Isn't ext4 the standard? Why use other filesystems?
Kayden Rivera
I can't believe this is real.
Owen Carter
Me neither. >dead link
Chase Bell
Alpine or Void?
Blake Diaz
Void, Alpine is not for desktops afaik.
Zachary Long
ext4 is the traditional choice, but ones like btrfs and ZFS have new tricks like compression, checksums, deduplication, and multi-device spanning. Problem is btrfs is not 100% stable, and ZFS is Oracle property. I'll probably settle for ext4 on LVM
Parker Sanders
github.com/hackerb9/lsix works with xterm, put the script in your PATH, xterm*decTerminalID: vt340 on your .Xresources, and then just type lsix. Doesnt work inside a multiplexer but there is a GNU Screen patch for sixels.
Ethan Young
Haha nice! Did you make this user?
Aaron Sanders
Nope, I found this by playing with tons of console applications tho.

i remember the first time you shilled your distro here, the fucking download page didn’t work. Looks like you got shit running now though
Ryder Diaz
That lady sure is pretty.

Needs more shilling, like the heads distro. They are good and people want something like that.
Aaron Taylor
Is IceWM minimal? Anyone uses it? Can someone give me a comparison to i3WM?
Dominic Jackson
Is a wm that can do a lot with less. Is on the fringe of minimal imho, I've use it in the past as an alternative to tiling in the case I need one, didnt like the winwowsy look but some people do. I ended up using motif window manager as an alternative wm.

Is it true that systemd uses googles dns?
Gavin Fisher
the gentoo livecd doesn't have the driver I need for wifi (and I need wifi) so I'm going to install gentoo through an antergos iso wish me luck
Thomas Reyes
Fucks sake this isn't reddit, we don't need a general thread for every minor subject.
Gavin Phillips
What your problem cunt?
Ethan White
does xfce come with a browser? I literally just installed xfce on a fresh install and have no browser installed
Kayden Jenkins
Minimalism doesnt need to be a hassle. To mount devices use bashmount. Bind it to a hotkey to something like opening a terminal and quitting once is done.
Ayden Cook
How can Debian be considered minimal if it uses Systemd?
Hunter Rogers
Mine came with Firefox ESR but that might have been from Debian, just install one from the terminal.
Charles Morgan
Youre ruining this board. And im a faggot, bitch.
Gavin Bailey
Posting more minimal applications. SCIM is an spreadsheet calculator, can use xlsx files and is scriptable.

/opt exists for a reason.
Nathaniel Reed
Redpill me on bspwm.
Owen Harris
Why isn't FreeBSD on there?
Juan Allen
Not GNU, not Linux OpenBSD is better anyway
Nolan Roberts
BtrFS makes sense for single volumes, RAID1, or RAID10. If you're doing raid 5/6/50/60, stick with ZFS or XFS+mdraid.
Luke Stewart
sxiv vs feh? And gcc vs tcc?
Blake Adams
>tcc deprecated
Owen Cox
OpenBSD makes a ton of software that runs great on Linux. >OpenSSH >LibreSSL >mksh >cwm >tmux OpenBSD by itself is a nice design, but Linux does most things faster and with more applications.

Tell me fucking more tfw linux noob
Does anyone have that chart which lists all the root directories in linux?
Brody Brown
Literally in the manual. Open a terminal and run man hier
Dominic Cooper
/opt is a directory where you put optional software packages. Your user files like runtime settings and your data are in your home directory. You can just blow away a package by rm -rf ing it from /opt and upgrade by tar xvf ing the new version after. Barely more effort than dealing with a package manager and a whole lot cleaner.
Tyler Sanchez
What is the easiest way to automount SD cards and USBs and such under Debian? (I am using the i3wm)
Nolan Long
Automounting is harmful.
Benjamin Barnes
Automounting is evil.
Sebastian Evans
It's available in the package usbmount. Don't use it.
Isaac Mitchell
To batch rename files inside a directory type qmv *, provided you set your $EDITOR youll be prompted to your favorite text editor, at the right side is the mirror text you need to change, at the left the previous versions.
Noah Bennett
Why is it not recommended to not automount?
Jack Campbell
Knowing how to use regular expressions and shell scripting is far more versatile.
Jonathan Martin
bashmount is nice, I've also added custom actions in /etc/bashmount.conf to power off external HDDs (udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sdX)
Xavier Morris
Because some greybeards are paranoid and mounting manually gives you more control over what goes where and when.
Jaxson Peterson
Well, is there a method to manually mount shit w/ out root? If not which part of the automount udev rule thing should I edit to mount it under my home directory (in a folder called SD or USB)
Anthony Moore
Use bashmount above mentioned.
Parker Phillips
sudo doesn't work for you?

Isaiah Morales
is there an easy list of what packages are safe to remove from a debian 9 install? i used the xfce iso but removed that and replaced it with kde and got rid of all the obvious bloat packages
Charles Reyes
why not sexy use netinst? and since when is there an "xfce iso"? O_o apt list --installed | grep 'xfce' apt purge *xfce* # hit 'no' when asked
is safe to do, just see what you use of those lists can also redirect to read later
Henry Morris
i already did that with the xfce packages, i mean is there anything in the base install that is bloat/likely to be not needed
Parker Lewis
>do you know if there is anything my computer that i dont use? i guess you know the answer... since you arent more specific, i suppose youre a "normal" user, and i think some programming tools are installed by default so, try vim binutils *-dev *-dbg
i think vim is installed by default, not sure about binutils and idk if any *-dev an *-dbg pkgs are installed by default, but since you wont be building stuff, you dont need them remember to not fuck yourself over, list them first, remove them later
Gabriel Kelly
Palememe ftw, using it right now, I kept many addons from dying FF.
Landon Clark
>using a furfag browser ok
Charles Clark
Other than manually pick and choose through void’s repos, is there a way to moderate the system for libre software only? Parabola has a package named your-freedom.
I’m a brainlet looking to avoid systemd but I don’t like OpenRC, haven’t had issues with runit however. Also pacman is incredibly bloat.
Not looking forward to compiling my own kernel. The rabbit hole goes deeper and deeper.
Andrew Lopez
>Not looking forward to compiling my own kernel Now.
Tyler Campbell
also look for different gcc pkgs, for some reason, different versions are installed... apt list --installed | grep '^gcc'
see which is the most recent (i have 7), and purge the others apt purge gcc-[4-6]* # this will remove gcc versions 4 through 6

what's the least bloat gui media player? is it mpv? cause i hate mpv's config system

If you like watching anime with others and want a non-normie discord.

you should go back and read the tree what exactly do you need to "config"? its just install and use, most of the time theres no need to change anything... fuck you and fuck discord
