I don’t think it’s clear that they are not trying to minimize civilian casualties, it’s hard to imagine a more targeted attack than the pager attack.

I don’t know what the numbers are like for the Lebanon part of the war, obviously, but in almost all modern conflicts we see that between 25 and 80% of casualties are civilians. I imagine we’re on the high end here as hezbollah like to fight and hide amongst civilians and use them as shields.

I struggle to see how you can combat such an organization without heavy civilian casualties, no matter how you go about it. I’m not saying the Israelis are not making mistakes or even being disproportionate at times, but I just can’t see how you’re going to fight hezbollah without heavy collateral damage.

How would you fight hezbollah and not hit any civilians?

Two of my sisters are doing that, and they’re lovely kids and will be surrounded by people who love them and will help them grow. So I think that’s absolutely fine.

Well, she’s 12 and likes to play roblox and do funny voice edits on her videos. As I am sure you can guess, it’s stuff like one-click voice modulation which is the big selling point of CapCut for her. So I am guessing ease of use and the ability to at least create and save audio editing presets and do texts and so on is paramount.

I agree that this is not really a need that foss tries to fill which is ok. We tried kdenlive but it seems a little advanced for her needs and wants. I tried Vidcutter and it seems a little too simple (feature-wise, the usability was nice).

We just took a look at ShotCut which seems alright, but I think I am more into it than she is. I hope I can convince her to take a look at it. Thanks!

I add stuff to FAQs when I am fucking tired of answering the same old dumb questions

I feel like life gets better and better and I’m 40, so…

Outside of tragedies beyond your control, like illness and so on, it’s also a matter of trying to have a fun and good life every day.

Happens to be true in all modern western countries though, only the US seems unable to force companies to pay a livable minimum wage.

Point made :D

I mean, yes. But on the other hand, I’ve removed usb-connected media without using that button thousands of times and never had an issue. I’m obviously not doing it when I am writing to or reading from the medium.

Either way, thanks again for taking the time to respond :)

Sure, I mean I am used to reading (and writing) manuals and documentation, so I usually go that route first when I know where to look. And your answer was helpful. Anyway, what are some authoritative ressources I should consult concerning these fundamental concepts?

cheers!

Don’t do that.

Coming from non-linux, it’s not usually a problem. But now I know better :)

fstab is just a config file so the computer knows what drives and storage volumes its supposed to have when it boots.

You can add and remove drives without ever editing fstab. Plugging something in should give you the option to mount it in your file explorer, and in the same place you should be able to “eject” it before disconnecting the actual cable.

I know that, but this particular drive was meant to be permanently mounted and accessible, which is why I added it to fstab. I am removing it because it’s damaged and i have to replace it with something which isn’t to act as a permanent drive for the server.

Thank you for your help :)

Thanks. I don’t mind reading manuals at all, but is this not a community for asking questions?

It’s mounted to /srv which is not empty, and I can also still browse some of the folders on the removed drive, which is also confusing :) I don’t understand how that’s even possible.

Edit: It does not show up as a drive, but the mount directory is still there with a folder structure and a single file.

Edit2: I deleted the folder which seems to have done the trick. Still confused about how and why it was still accessible…

I figured removing it from fstab was akin to unmounting it.

Well, I just rebooted and it’s still there, which is what is confusing me :) But thanks!

So I should unmount it in other ways too?

Yanked out the cable like a medieval surgeon ;) Anyway, since I removed it from fstab I figured it was unmounted.

You should tell her this, basically, and also you guys can call each other. She’s probably also going to miss you heaps, although she’ll also have a new world to explore.

I did go for that 😁 was a simple checkbox in the router settings.

Thanks - I have an icotera i4850 router which claims to support NAT loopback, but I can’t figure out where to do it and it seems like the manual is gone from the internet :) Might have to ask my internet provider if they have a PDF somewhere.

Edit: D’oh, it’s a checkbox in the port forwarding interface! Thanks a bunch, didn’t know what to look for before your reply :)
