You can also use pv to see a nice progress bar:
pv path/to/awesome.iso > /dev/disk/usb-drive

Absolutely, I daily drive Mint and it’s one of my favorite things about it!
And when I installed Chromium from the command line as a deb, it OVERWROTE my wish, and installed Chromium as a snap too.
This right here is my issue with Ubuntu. A huge part of Linux for me is that I am in control of my OS and machine. If I use apt to install a package, it’s because I want the .deb version. I absolutely don’t need my OS telling me “I know what you asked for, but I’m going to give you the snap version anyway”.
I could see snaps being preferred over .debs in the Software app, sure (though they shouldn’t be the only option). But replacing apps in a command line tool is garbage.
6·2 months agoEven the Steam Deck isn’t locked to their flavor, so I highly doubt a full pc would be.
I’ve installed Mint on a 6 recently. Setting up the boot settings was a minor hassle, but everything else was very smooth. Definitely recommend the linux-surface kernel.
Yes, I do! Thanks!
bs=1M
This part varies based on your hardware (my hardware is much faster with a value of 4096) , but other than that it’s everything.
Here is a handy script that can help determine which bs size is best for your hardware.
Don’t let this man distract you from the fact that in 1998, KDE Plasma threw Gnome off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table.
I’d say the people in that 24% have a quite valid reason to care.
Jagex’s help site links to this github which is a collection of working Linux projects, including bolt.
It’s not perfect, but I consider it as Jagex saying it’s fine.
Yes, this is exactly what I did when they forced the change a while back.
It’s actually kinda nice because it’s only one login now and easy to switch between them.
Since they changed to Jagex accounts, you can’t use Runelite directly anymore.
I use this launcher now. It lets you login to your Jagex account, then choose to play in either Runelite or the official client.
I believe their point is that their language is left to right, so it just makes sense to them to have the tabs structure left to right as well.
I happen to share this sentiment, but can understand why some people may like it different.
For those that like the status bar dd provides, I highly recommend pv
pv diskimage.iso > /dev/usb
I’ve got ProtonVPN set up through wireguard on my system and it works great. Only caveat is that you have to set up multiple profiles if you want different locations, secure core, etc. Not a big deal in my use case, but something to consider.
Terminal emulator with cloud sign-in. Ah yes, that’s exactly where I should be entering my root password. Genius.
Pretty sure this is just malware with extra steps.
Nextcloud uses webDAV, so it definitely can be mounted as a network drive (this is how I primarily use it, and it works well).
It wouldn’t be until that moment I had any suspicions I was actually in hell.
