Nah /dev/zero is for wimps. You need /dev/urandom…

Now why didn’t I think of that? I must be worth money to someone as a card carrying V…

/me off to grindr

/me arch user with 4 crotch goblins… Must be a cuck and not know it :(

Copying all the data elsewhere and re-partition is still the right answer…

You could possibly get away with copying the data out of the last partition, deleting the last 3 and extending the other one then copying the data back but, as others have said, you seem to have rather too many partitions.

ETA: there is no way to merge ntfs and ext4 partitions anyway - even without the intervening partitions that are present here. Copy, destroy extend is the only way.

They aren’t. It will probably descend into an edit war.

Arguments against… Wheelbarrows of troubles from Putin…

All bikes are repairable, some are more repairable than others. It all depends on how scared you are of getting your hands dirty and how confident you are that you can think your way out of problems.

My point is that a bike can be really simple and, as such, anything should be possible.

Modern innovations usually mean a set of tools beyond the basic bike set but the specials are available (bottom brackets are a particular case in point - you use to be able to get away with ponty things and gentle hammering - despite there being tools designed for the job now it’s use our tool or forget it)

So I would avoid anything too new - get a rat bike from a scrappy and learn how it works whilst rebuilding it.

Planetary for me.

In the UK there is a split between England and Wales and Scotland. “southern” UK trespass is a civil offence. Scotland it is criminal.

So in southern UK trespassers will most definitely not be prosecuted (the railway and power plant property are, iirc, the two exceptions because they have by-laws) but may be sued for damages, in Scotland they can be prosecuted.

The products also have/had a lifetime guarantee - providing you could find a rep and they still made the product… Got a jug replaced after 40 years of hard service.

It’s also why the party model failed them - MLM for a product that never broke or wore out.

Newer tupperware was microwave safe.

Reps got a cut of party sales and if they made enough each month the could get other benefits as well (a company car, for example).

Sorry to spoil the party but this comment was typed on Microsoft swift key 9.10.44.22, Huawei p20 pro, Voyager 2.17.1, emui 12.0.0

No bother with swipes (don’t usually use them), backspace, predictive text - though word suggestions only appear when I stop the swipe.

Eta: Voyager is from Play Store.

But, importantly, also without chicory…

The “daily fail” is hardly a valid source for anything…

Apart from having the flags the wrong way around, what’s wrong?

You are right, it doesn’t happen with any other O/S except iOS where you have to pay people/Apple to fix it (or reset the OS) or Windows where the stock response is “reinstall the O/S”

How valuable is the data on your laptop? Did you have it backed up? If so, stop worrying and just take the Windows approach. If not… Find someone local to you who is able to fix it (good luck with that…)

As for the rest - you come over as someone who expects someone else to fix your shit for free with no information other than “waaaa it’s stopped working”

This may help How to as Smart Questions

Fwiw, based on your brief description of symptoms, I would say your boot device file system is broken somehow. To fix you need to mount it on another booted OS and fsck it (however if it mounts, copy valuable data off onto other media, then fsck it) . How to do that is left to your powers of Google. Not warranting my response in any way.

Best of luck.

First up - I know nothing about your specific problem. Let me add some pointers as to why you may be having difficulty…

You need to provide way more detail than a screenshot (which shows nothing really) and “why is it broken?”

What is the hardware, what is the boot device, what is the boot loader (and version), what does the boot loader config look like… There could be any number of things that stop the boot, including a corrupt boot file.

No one is able to diagnose your problem from the information you have provided.

If you are unwilling to grab a USB stick from a retailer, boot a different OS image and try some diags on your original file system you may well find people reluctant to help (for free…)

Or at least the promise of money which may, or more likely may not, materialise.

I use it on every phone handset at work… I guess it’s the switch PoE not the pc mobo but the effect is the same. If you are talking pc mobo PoE I guess it could be handy if you had a PoE camera…

Wow. I retract my recommendation. But then I am technically able but normal user level lazy…

The worst thing that Manjaro/Arch did was to automatically build QT when it was unnecessary and then blame users for not looking at the AUR comments before doing the automatic update that executed the build… If they can’t admit that was a distro issue not a user issue (user taking recommended action gets pc incapacitated because of automatic action by the update software which happens with no warning) I guess they need to grow up.

Am I going to jump distro? Nah. It works for me. I said I am lazy!

What no Manjaro? Sweet Arch based distro which hardly ever breaks…
