Not selfhosting AND privacy.
From the sidebar of this lemmy:
“A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.”
So its about self-hosting with certain qualities (not giving up privacy or lockin). Not about privacy in general.
Signal isnt selfhosted and does lock you in, albeit with a high reputation to not become evil.
Better lemmy would be https://lemmy.ml/c/privacy
Nothing to do with selfhosting
I just see those foundation onboard / leaves from afar … but isnt the retention rate way to high to do actual foundational stuff?
I am dutch and spend many an hour at the intersection of IT and Privacy … but this is the wrong community to advertise a local Signal group.
I work with a Grub boot for Win11 / Debian on the same disk (work provided laptop without the persuasion to change my employer MS-First policy) but one of the lucky ones I guess. No problem for 2 years now.
Only thing after a big Windows update it forgets its TPM Bitlocker key for its own partition. Must type it like once in 2 months manually.
Luckily this was about Snap.
That … makes a lot of sense, thanks 🙏🙏
Oh never thought about using ls to “test” things, thnx!
Yeah agree, its a work provided laptop, they allowed local admin etc but require Windows (at least that is) so just glad they gave me a HP laptop with 500GB SSD and for me certain freedom to configure dual boot etc
Got chills down my spine initially but was a “good” scare … the one which makes me carefull next time before any real damage is done. 🙈👍
Strange thing is, instead of moving folders (which isnt possible without root anyway) it looked like some of them got copied instead. Compared some folders from /boot/grub with the dump in my homefolder and they were the same files (number and names etc).
I took a deep breath (was not being root, how bad could it be?) and rebooted. Luckily everything seemed fine.
Grub letting me choose between Debian and Win11 (its a laptop from my employer) and both booted if choosen. Thanks for all the advice.
If the actual command was this … mv /*/*/* ./ would moving stuff out of /boot or /dev folders make more sense?
Ah, keen eye, corrected the title and body text to match the screenshot. (From terminal history so I think thats what I actually ran)
Oh that worked, thnx!!
I only have a backup of my own personal files, not of the whole system. So my question about impact is about not having to do a fresh install.
Also I have dual boot and grub etc do scare me. 😁
I didnt work as root by the way …
Ouch … feel so stupid.
Ah, I was no root … that should lower the impact …
Yeah, I see, command wildcard asterix being markdown bold. Original command:
You asked why and I gave an explanation where the 27 downvotes came from. So I think there is some agreement within this lemmy about being offtopic.
If that bothers you too much I suggest focusing on something more productive, as I will do.
