and then df-ed a couple gigs of /dev/zero straight into /dev/sda

do you mean dd ?

Not German but I remember the comment but not the right letters so I would have killed us all.

Because of all the noisy motherfuckers around me all the time.

I want to be in space by myself

Powershell

My only problem is trying to use it with the android app. I have to manually sync it like all the time which is a pain in the ass when I forget to do it before I go out the door and my shopping list isn’t update. That and it won’t sync files I create on the phone to the server

The issue is ads are for supporting free software. Windows is not free therefore should not be showing ads.

Yea, hire a bunch of underpaid undertrained peons to take support calls from the rest of your underpaid untrained peons. If an exec has a problem they get to bypass the helpdesk and go straight to someone that knows what they’re doing so they never see how bad things are. $$$

Couldn’t they just *2 all the bills from before this was ran and straighten it out?

I’m an analyst. I’ve never analyzed anything.

The closest one I’ve found to what I’m looking for in a note taking app is Obsidian. Really it kind of set the standard of what I need with how efficient it is to use. The only issue is syncing to my phone and tablet. I’m using Nextcloud and so far have only been able to get “read” access on my mobile devices. If I try to create/edit a note it gives me access errors that I haven’t found a way around. This isn’t a huge problem because I mostly reference notes on the devices anyway and am not making changes to them. Mobile note taking is typically done in my physical pocket notebook anyway.

I couldn’t find that either. I did find this page for Linux options but only has one laptop. https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/d/linux-laptops-desktops/?visibleDatas=857%3A14" - 14.9"%2C15" - 16.9"

Same. I was working on a help desk years ago helping another agent with a call where the customer was being ignorant and I sent him a message that said something like “does he want us to wipe his ass for him too?” (Not that exactly but in the context of the situation it would have been similarly insulting). Next reply I get from the other agent was “he said no”.

😬

Is it the visual representation of the partition layout? A general fear of borking a disk?

Yes

Being able to see it helps a lot. I can and have done it via parted. My media server doesn’t have a desktop environment installed. I just really would rather have a GUI when it’s available as an added safeguard.

Not much of a picture guy personally but I see your point.

Edit: I have spent a decent amount of time organizing books and comic books and that was a pretty even split between GUI and Terminal. GUI to get them in a state that I could bulk rename/move into appropriate directory with the Terminal. I assume it would be similar with pictures.

Me fucking with hard drives/partitions : GUI please

Me doing pretty much anything else - Terminal

Please don’t think I’m disparaging your wife here but in my experience saying “they should just be able to …” Has never been followed by the intended person “just being able to…”. Even people I thought were very intelligent/tech savvy. It may be worthwhile to run through the procedure with her a few times if shes not already familiar with it.

I had a similar experience trying to install a m.2 drive in my win7 PC. It needed a hotfix to work but Microsoft had taken down the downloads so I ended up finding out it was in an update pack from I think Lenovo’s website and pulled it out of that.

If it weren’t for the Star Trek memes idk what I’d do here. I mean I do run Linux but I don’t make a lifestyle out of it.

So same problems as the last one… it took me like 8 months to actually be able to purchase a Pi4
