1·2 days agoRunning as root is a forceful workaround, not the solution to my problem. I want to open this lock, not break it.
I don't want to run as root because...
- It’s bad for security. Think of running
sudoeditvssudo nanoorsudo vim. If you run the editor as root directly, you can access the shell as root. This is a feature, not a bug! But if you runsudoedit, it stays at low privilege level until it actually saves the file. - The “Retry as Sudo” feature exists. If it’s there, why not use it instead of circumventing it?
- At this point, editing the file is irrelevant. This is not an XY problem. I want to stop getting the second error.
The “Retry as Sudo” dialog is supposed to appear, and when I click on the button, I am supposed to get a password prompt. That’s what happens in the Apt version; that’s what happens in the Snap version; and in the NixPKG version, they had the same problem, but they fixed it.
How do I fix it in my flatpak version?

3·3 days agoSounds both moderately cool and highly abnormal.
Also, the interface looks like Github.
2·3 days agoIt could be a race condition: Check how long it takes between printing/typing each piece of text. Then try changing the length of the sleep statements, or removing them.
It could be overlapping text: Add a \n in each of your strings.
It could be some weird variable reuse issue: Print/type the strings directly, or use uniquely named variables (text1, text2, text3).
I found the simple life ain’t so simple!

What’s your partition layout?
I understand why, but that’s not my preference. I use the normal interface for Lemmy, and the old version for Reddit.
Old Reddit because the redesign just seems like a pseudo-Tiktok hole full of ads. Lemmy, however, does not have that problem, and using the “old reddit” style would be a downgrade on features.
I used to use New Reddit before it got really bad, so I like the “Old New Reddit” style.

2·19 days agoCan you at least remove the
m.from the link? If you’re on mobile, it will automatically redirect to the mobile site. But if you’re on desktop and them.is still there, you have to manually remove it, and that’s really annoying because the mobile site is missing some important desktop features.
Pink flag, as in, red flag lite; or pink flag, as in, another term for a rainbow flag?
I have flatseal installed. Did you read the post?
