    This one thinks there were three cycles of moon giving from our mother Fadomai. Ahnurr gave Fadomai her cubs. First was Alkosh, followed by Khenarthi, Magrus, Mara lastly there was S’rendarr.

    During the second moon gift there was now Merrunz, Mafala, followed by Sangiin.

    Although Ahnurr’s house was full, Alkosh and others wanted more cubs to bask in lights warmth.

    So Fadomai gave her first cubs their wishes. Azurah, Nirni, Y’ffer, Masser, Secunda all joined with the light children.

    Fadomai still had longing for small cubs so she fled to the void and one cub, Lorkhaj was given.

    Exhausted, Fadomai knew her time of ending was near. So a gift was given to Nirni, for she desired to give cubs the light.

    So it was that Nirni came to her brother Lorkhaj for she needed a new dwelling for her cubs. Lorkhaj did just so, forming the mortal realm. Some of Fadomai’s first cubs were imprisoned in the new realm. The second set of Fadomai’s cubs saw what had happened and did not follow.

    Mayhaps was not just Nirni who was given the gift of cubs. So is said Azurah came down to one of Nirni’s cubs and shape his form most desirably, so log as they would be given their mother Fadomai’s Beauty, Ahnurr intelligence and Alkosh’s streingth.

    Azurah found some of Nirni’s cubs in the forest and from them Khajiit were born under Masser and Secunda’s light.

    Angered by Azurah’s decision to take so many cubs Nirni came to Y’ffer and ask for punishment. He did so turning the grasses to warm sands and forest to marsh.

    Azurah loved her cubs and taught them the ways of the moons and the gift of shapes.

    However not all her children were given the gifts of Azurah and favored Nirni. By her hand the fur was taken and the forest given. For Nirni also loved here cubs and their grandcubs.

    Although maybe not M’aiq is very practical. He has no need for mysticism.






  • If you have 2 separate drives each with their own boot loader and you tell your bios to boot from the grub bootloader and grub has successfully detected another OS like windows everything will be fine.

    The trouble with dual booting comes from splitting a drive into partitions with different OS’s on them sharing the same boot partition. Eventually windows will nuke grub and you will loose the ability to boot linux till you use a live USB to repair through chroot and fixing/installing grub manually or using a grub-repair live USB. Usually only gets complicated if you have luks set up.

    I don’t advise dual booting on a single drive. I intentionally buy gaming laptops with dual drive setups and keep the windows drive untouched till the warranty is out. Just in case i have to send it in for repair. Been doing this since 2004 without ever having any bootloader issues that I didn’t cause myself.

    You could write a simple python script using datetime and pyperclip. Datetime would supply the date format and pyperclip to copy that to your clipboard. You could setup a key binding to call the script then [Ctrl + v] to paste.

    I believe all linix distros have python installed OTB.

    There are probably a bash solution but my bash is rubbish.

    Edit:

    The bash solution that has been provided is the best option IMO. I just thought I should provide the code for my solution so you have options. This python script is easily extendable / customizable. All this depends in you installing the python module pyperclip. datetime should be part if the standard python library so you dont have to install it.

    installing pyperclip with pip.

    pip install pyperclip

    The script:

    #!/usr/bin/env python3
    """A simple script to copy a formatted datetime string to the users clipboard"""
    
    import datetime
    import pyperclip
    
    def clipboard_timestamp(initials) -> None:
        """Function to create a formatted timestamp string to users clipboard.
    
        Arguments:
           initials: Uses the provided string during formatting of the timestamp."""
    
        time = datetime.datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
        pyperclip.copy(f"{initials} {time}")
    
    if __name__ == "__main__":
    
        clipboard_timestamp('ABC')
    

    The above script also adds the hours minutes and seconds to the timestamp. If not needed remove the %H:%M:%S. Dont forget to edit anything that you want like the 'ABC' near the end.

    Save script somewhere. I usually save personal scripts to ~/.local/bin so they are out of the way. I used the name clipboard_timestamp.py Doesn’t really matter as long as you remember the name. Next you have 2 options. You can make the script executable using chmod a+x clipboard_timestamp.py. If you dont want to take this step you will have to tell the shortcut that python is executing the script by prefacing the script’s full path with python like so python ~/.local/bin/clipboard_timestamp.py If you made the script executable you just use ~/.local/bin/clipboard_timestamp.py.

    I use KDE but your system should be similar-ish. in your desktop’s setting’s search for keyboard and you should see something that says something like shortcuts. Add New -> Command or Script. Point this to your newly saved python script /.local/bin/clipboard_timestamp.py. Then you choose the keystroke combination.

    You might want to file a bug report so they can grab some info from you that could help an updater get pushed sooner and help others.

    Very glad you got up and running. Hopefully they will get a better update pushed out soon.

    Hay if the restore works might hold off on doing an update for a few days just too see if kubuntu had pushed a bad update. If they did they did they should fix it pretty quickly when they get a bunch of people with broken systems.

    Have you tried making sure network manager is enabled and started?

    sudo systemctl enable NetworkManager

    sudo systemctl start NetworkManager

    From a live USB do you have networking?
