Exactly the information I needed, thank you for this :)

That makes more sense- kinda like nondestructive editing when working with audio/video. The snapshot is more or less a list of instructions to revert a system back to a previous state, not an actual copy of everything.

Thank you- this is exactly the direction I was needing

That makes more sense to me now. If I did want to backup system files and settings on another drive, what tool could I use?

Perhaps I’m misunderstanding how Timeshift works. If Timeshift isn’t a backup tool then what does it do? I thought that I could use my primary SSD and save snapshots to a secondary SSD using Timeshift. Everything is formatted to BTRFS by the way, it’s not like the primary drive is in ext4 or something like that.

Can I configure it to do what I want it to do or do I need some other sort of tool for that?

I mean I’m running Fedora, I’m sure I could find some use for it

Oh that’s totally sick, I bet that would be hella useful if I had another computer I wanted to set up and have everything I’ve got on my main machine

I’m gonna be so real, that’s a lot of words that I didn’t understand but that’s okay- I suppose I’m probably not the target audience for for the software 😂

Best of luck to you and your project!

What does it do?

Haven’t had La Croix, but in general I love carbonated water. It’s quite possible I drink more sparkling water than I drink tap water because my tap just tastes yucky for some reason.

Portal, please

It used to work properly. I can use the challenge-response to unlock my password manager and I can use passkeys just fine, but for whatever reason it won’t show me one-time codes.

pcscd is installed, but I don’t believe it is functioning properly, even when I enable it

The Yubikey is plugged into a USB C port. The same issue persists even when used in the other USB C port.

Unfortunately, I don’t believe it’s working

I really like Fedora. Swapped to it a few months ago, my first time using Linux, and I’ve since only been using the Linux machine. With the KDE Plasma spin, it really is a near 1:1 UI to Windows.

Why Lemmy? I like the memes :3

Who Lemmy? Me! And all of you!

How Lemmy? On my mobile phone ☝️🤓

I like the DuckDuckGo search engine, but I don’t care much for their browsers (mobile nor desktop). I do keep the browser app on my phone so I can generate alias Duck addresses, I do find that feature pretty handy.

As for how private DDG search is, I feel like the best practice for using any search engine privately is to clear browser data when you’re done searching with it. That’s a hassle though, so it’s smart to have a browser dedicated to temporary browsing sessions that you don’t plan to go back to later. On Android, browsers like Firefox (and forks like Mull) as well as Cromite allow you to set it so browsing data clears when you exit the browser.

I mean the boxes for font and paragraph style are all dark when they should be light. I think it’s got to do with the system theme, I just wish I could selectively choose the theme for each application so dark mode doesn’t mess things up like this.

Awesome, I’m glad to help spread the good word! Fooyin is still in its infancy it seems, but I’m hoping we’ll get some more features in it soon- I’m hoping for spectrogram/waveform visualization as well as EQ.

I was really hoping you’d say it was Foobar2000! You can run Foobar2000 using something like Wine/Bottles, but the UI gets all screwy. Recently, somebody released a Foobar-alike called Fooyin and I love it! Here’s how I styled my layout:

Fooyin definitely has some growing to do, but I think it’s the best you can do on Linux if the goal is the ability to play bit-pefect music with a similar setup to Foobar2000.

Out of curiosity, what was that perfectly customized music player?
