That s seems to be a bit off

Phone: Oneplus Nord CE Lite

I understand the need for something like Tails OS and I am glad it exists. But I am looking for a distro that is not as hyper focused on extreme privacy and anonymity and is designed to be sort of like mobile computing.

I know many(if not all) distros can be live booted. I am also aware the likes of MX Linux and others leave unallocated space that can be formatted and used for this purpose but what I am looking for is this process being stream lined.

In Tails, there is a dedicated "Persistent Volumes Manager" app where you select what information you wish to put in your persistence storage. For example, you can choose to store your settings, installed apps, wifi passwords, app configuration, browser bookmarks and other useful stuff. Persistence storage is optionally encrypted to prevent sensitive data from being extracted from stolen flash drive.

When you boot up, you will be asked whether you wish to unlock persistence volume or not. If you agree, all your settings will be loaded into current live boot session, if not, it wont be.

The distro does not act or try to pretend like Tails but rather acts and feels like a standard linux distro, not hyper focused on anonymity, maximizing user convinience over privacy and security.

Essentially: When you boot, if you choose to use persistence storage by unlocking with password, etc, all your settings, installed app, etc get loaded from it. If you dont, the distro default is set.

When persistence folder is unlocked, there could be a Persistence folder in the live user's home directory where we can store files we wish to persist between reboot. Everything outside is non persistent.

If you have used Tails OS, its exactly that, except not hyper focused on anonymity and security requiring Tor to be running to access the network

Please remove it if unallowed

I see alot of people in here who get mad at AI generated code and I am wondering why. I wrote a couple of bash scripts with the help of chatGPT and if anything, I think its great.

Now, I obviously didnt tell it to write the entire code by itself. That would be a horrible idea, instead, I would ask it questions along the way and test its output before putting it in my scripts.

I am fairly competent in writing programs. I know how and when to use arrays, loops, functions, conditionals, etc. I just dont know anything about bash's syntax. Now, I could have used any other languages I knew but chose bash because it made the most sense, that bash is shipped with most linux distros out of the box and one does not have to install another interpreter/compiler for another language. I dont like Bash because of its, dare I say weird syntax but it made the most sense for my purpose so I chose it. Also I have not written anything of this complexity before in Bash, just a bunch of commands in multiple seperate lines so that I dont have to type those one after another. But this one required many rather advanced features. I was not motivated to learn Bash, I just wanted to put my idea into action.

I did start with internet search. But guides I found were lacking. I could not find how to pass values into the function and return from a function easily, or removing trailing slash from directory path or how to loop over array or how to catch errors that occured in previous command or how to seperate letter and number from a string, etc.

That is where chatGPT helped greatly. I would ask chatGPT to write these pieces of code whenever I encountered them, then test its code with various input to see if it works as expected. If not, I would ask it again with what case failed and it would revise the code before I put it in my scripts.

Thanks to chatGPT, someone who has 0 knowledge about bash can write bash easily and quickly that is fairly advanced. I dont think it would take this quick to write what I wrote if I had to do it the old fashioned way, I would eventually write it but it would take far too long. Thanks to chatGPT I can just write all this quickly and forget about it. If I want to learn Bash and am motivated, I would certainly take time to learn it in a nice way.

What do you think? What negative experience do you have with AI chatbots that made you hate them?

Dont use Reddit username or Facebook username or anything like that even if it could be cool. That way you dont have to worry even if some log file or error stack trace recorded your username.

The upvote and downvote counter both should have been positive no? How is it negative in this case?

I am not making a huge fuss about this very tiny of a tiny glitch. But I feel like this can become something much more serious if unknown.

Like there is the Official Mastodon app for Mastodon, and Element app for Matrix, which app is considered the most official lemmy app for Android [possibly also for ios]

Or atleast, the app which supports most(if not all) the features available in Lemmy

The ONLY one that works is Raspberry pi os Legacy available from the rpi flasher. What other OS would work?

About TV

Company: Daewoo DC

Purchase date: Last 15 years, and the most modern of its time

Size: 24 inch

Interface: Has Audio-Video port

[Other than that, its just a radioactive box, weird signal goes in, video comes out]

About Raspberry pi

Model: Raspberry Pi 4B (4GB RAM)

OS: Raspberrypi OS

Situation

Its not cabling thats the issue. The TV shows visual but the graphics is very hazy and blurry. I suppose it has something to do with either the frame rate made for digital monitors being too high for the TV or the video resolution being too unbarable.

I have used CRT computer monitors but they used VGA. In those monitors, I used to set resolution to 800x600px and it would show the clearest. CRT monitors dont have this concept of pixels, yet setting pixels to 800x600 does the job in VGA CRT monitors. It did not work in case of my TV.

I should mention that the device I purchased to convert HDMI to Audio Video has a toggleable switch that can be changed to NTSC or PAL. I dont know what that is, both works but setting to PAL seems to be slightly clearer.

I am asking here in hopes someone else has done it and how they made it barable.

[Also I am sorry I do not understand the language that is mostly used here. This community seems to be the most active one so I decided to ask for help here]

When I click to subscribe some groups it goes to Pending stage for a long time before it gets to subscribed.

Is that because the mods accepted my subscription request or is it taking long time?

I run Windows 10 and I have never done anything with Profiles at all. I am completely new.

When I go to about:profiles I see three Enteries,

• Profile: default-release
• Profile: default
• Profile: dev-edition-default

Of which default-release seems to be default. Indicated by Default Profile: yes

First off, why are there 3 profiles if I never created one?

In Each profile, there is Root Directory and Local Directory which point to the same directory in all 3 cases. What are the differences?
