  • Stupid question maybe, but would your backups even be safe? Sure, it was mentioned that you had to enter your sudo password, but let’s say you did that because you are careless, “rm -rf” would wipe all connected and mounted drives as well, so your backups would be gone, wouldn’t they? Or does Timeshift mount and unmount on demand? If so, what would happen if you ran “rm -rf” while a backup is being saved?! It seems to me that a simple “make backups” isn’t enough here.




  • it’s private, but it can be shared, maybe that’s it? The mere possibility of sharing it means they moderate it?

    Zitat vom Typ der den originalen Screenshot gepostet hat. Man kann die Liste, in der das Bookmark ist, theoretisch also teilen. Ergo steht mein Punkt, dass das eben für die Verbreitung von Scamlinks und Co. ausgenutzt werden kann. Man kann drüber streiten, ob die Collection moderiert werden muss, wenn sie nicht geteilt wurde, aber geteilt werden könne, aber das ist ein ganz anderer Punkt.

    Wie @hillbicks richtig sagt, wird mit dem Thema die ganze Zeit suggeriert, dass plötzlich deine Warez Lesezeichen aus der Chrome-Bookmarksbar verschwinden könnten. Das ist aber eben nicht so. Deine normalen, lokalen Lesezeichen sollten, soweit man das bisher beurteilen kann, sicher sein und nicht moderiert werden.







  • I see that you dedicated a paragraph to NTFS. There are quite a lot of people saying there are problems with gaming on Linux using an NTFS drive but I’ve rarely (never?!) seen anyone actually having problems with it. I myself have been dual booting for years and some games are on an NTFS drive shared between Linux and windows for convenience and I never had any issues besides the fact I had to disable fast reboot in Windows.



  • imho the canvas was a bit too large for the userbase. Sure it’s cool that everyone got a spot but I liked the thrill of the “fights” every time two projects tried to occupy the same space. But I guess the “friendly nature” of canvas kind of reflects the current state of lemmy so it’s okay :)
