More specifically, if I was to attach my public key to every email — even when the recipient doesn’t use PGP. My assumption is that “life would carry on” and there would be basically no difference but I’m not entirely sure. _the process of using PGP for encrypting content (text messages for example) is something I’m only just started understanding after some reading and practicing_ **EDIT** Since a couple of people have mentioned it, my email provider provides E2EE between users but it I want to have E2EE with non-users and via my aliases (SimpleLogin) with custom domains I’ll need PGP

It’s been a few years since I last shaved my beard. If I don’t get irritated skin after shaving should I still use an aftershave? If so, what do you recommend?

I'm referring to projects like [redlib](https://github.com/redlib-org/redlib) or [invidious](https://github.com/iv-org/invidious). I was thinking about doing something similar for a local second-hand marketplace and got curious. [Redlib seems to use token spoofing](https://github.com/redlib-org/redlib?tab=readme-ov-file#libreddit) to get past rate limits and [Invidious doesn't even use the official YouTube API](https://github.com/redlib-org/redlib?tab=readme-ov-file#libreddit). The only way I thought of, which would be slow, is to scrape the site (like you would with [Beautiful Soup](https://beautiful-soup-4.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)).

I know the title sounds a little strange but hear me out. The time tracking software I use for work doesn’t work on Wayland, unless I’m using Gnome as my DE. They have an extension that allows it to work in this case. Personally, I don’t enjoy Gnome on my desktop (I use it on my laptop).

**TL;DR:** Is there really a performance benefit to a gaming distro over a regular distro? Or is it more of a “this is the least work” to get setup? —— I run EndeavourOS on my desktop and haven’t had any issues with performance. I just like playing with new things and learning from the experience. I’ve seen loads of people recommending Bazzite as a gaming distro for various reasons. It’s gotten to the point that I installed it on a second SSD to do my own testing but I’d still like to see others perspective. From my research, there doesn’t seem to be that much performance to be gained (generally speaking). I’ll be testing this on my own hardware but is this generally true? I think a big draw (especially for new users) would be that these distros would require very minimal work to get up and running into a game. I think the *TL;DR* at the top best describes my question. I’ve just been thinking about this and haven’t been sure how to express it in a clear manner for others to understand. Also, [this video](https://tilvids.com/w/vJRNc3kAfPC1exckXhVYNC) got me thinking more. **EDIT:** Glad to see that I’m not alone in my thinking. Biggest benefit of a “gaming distro” is the convenience of having everything setup and there is no real performance difference.

Context, I’ve got some web dev experience but it’s all self taught from enjoying it as a hobby. Personally, the design aspect is probably worse for me. I’ve been toying with the idea of trying to do something with the Lemmy API (even if it’s never shared publicly) but I’ve seen a handful of people complain about the API, is it really that bad? I’d probably use React if I did do something. **EDIT:** This is a prototype design I came up with, I'll play around with the API and see what I can do. I think that it could be a fun project, thanks for all the help! Post Card:

After everything that has happened with [Raivo](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/psa-export-your-keys-before-updating-raivo-otp-to-the-latest-1-6-version/18602) over the last few days it’s reminded me that I need to go through my accounts with 2FA enabled.

## Context: I updated my system last night (EndeavourOS) and it looks like the kernal didn't update correctly. When I restarted the system and entered my password for the encrypted drive, I get an error: ``` [FAILED] Failed to mount /efi See 'systemctl status efi.mount` for details. ``` I can't remember the commands I used last night but I was able to check the version of the kernel I am using currently - `uname -r` I believe - and what is installed. There was a difference in versions. ## Trying to fix the problem: I attempted to `chroot` into the system via a live USB - [tutourial](https://www.turnkeylinux.org/docs/chroot-to-repair-system), [arch bbs](https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=82056) & [arch wiki](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel#Kernel_panics). However, when trying to mount the drive (`/dev/sda2`) I get an error message: `mount: /rescue: unknown filesystem type 'crypto_LIKS'. I tried using `cryptsetup luksOpen' and 'udisksctl unlock -b' but both return a similar error saying it is not an encrypted device. See `fdisk -l` results below: ``` [liveuser@eos-2024.04.20 ~]$ sudo fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 238.47 GiB, 256060514304 bytes, 500118192 sectors Disk model: TOSHIBA KSG60ZMV Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Disklabel type: gpt Disk identifier: FC41E181-15E3-4444-8240-E68D52AFD07E Device Start End Sectors Size Type /dev/sda1 4096 2052095 2048000 1000M EFI System /dev/sda2 2052096 481648511 479596416 228.7G Linux filesystem /dev/sda3 481648512 500103449 18454938 8.8G Linux filesystem Disk /dev/sdb: 57.3 GiB, 61524148224 bytes, 120164352 sectors Disk model: SanDisk 3.2Gen1 Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x7498467c Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sdb1 * 64 5249887 5249824 2.5G 0 Empty /dev/sdb2 5249888 5575519 325632 159M ef EFI (FAT-12/16/32) Disk /dev/loop0: 2.35 GiB, 2520530944 bytes, 4922912 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes ``` ## Snapper Snapshots: I recently setup snapshots with Snapper since I'm using BTRFS. From what I understand, I can just roll back my system to before the system update (it takes a snapshot before and after installing anything) but I got confused on how to do that last night - troubleshooting at 2AM with a lack of sleep will do that... What is the best way forward? I'm happy to provide more information if it helps. **EDIT:** Output of `lsblk` ``` [liveuser@eos-2024.04.20 ~]$ lsblk -f NAME FSTYPE FSVER LABEL UUID FSAVAIL FSUSE% MOUNTPOINTS loop0 squashfs 4.0 0 100% /run/archiso/airootfs sda ├─sda1 vfat FAT32 0BC7-CF22 ├─sda2 crypto_LUKS 2 5c6d5430-3706-48e8-bffb-f680d8c19dda └─sda3 crypto_LUKS 2 81a912d5-fb81-40ed-a60f-0af27314b661 sdb iso9660 Joliet Extension EOS_202404 2024-04-20-15-57-10-00 ├─sdb1 iso9660 Joliet Extension EOS_202404 2024-04-20-15-57-10-00 0 100% /run/archiso/bootmnt └─sdb2 vfat FAT16 ARCHISO_EFI 7156-9697 ``` **EDIT 2:** ``` [liveuser@eos-2024.04.20 ~]$ lsblk -a NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS loop0 7:0 0 2.3G 1 loop /run/archiso/airootfs sda 8:0 0 238.5G 0 disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 1000M 0 part ├─sda2 8:2 0 228.7G 0 part └─sda3 8:3 0 8.8G 0 part sdb 8:16 1 57.3G 0 disk ├─sdb1 8:17 1 2.5G 0 part /run/archiso/bootmnt └─sdb2 8:18 1 159M 0 part ``` ``` # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a device; this may # be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices that works even if # disks are added and removed.

My wife and I have just recently had our first child and I'm looking at getting a decent baby monitor (or security camera) setup. Our place is not very big at all (think a studio with a separate bedroom/bathroom). I was given a cheap [security camera](https://www.littlelf.com/white-1080p.html) to use for now but I want to start planning for when we move into a bigger apartment (security cameras) and a generally better system for monitoring our baby when we are in another room and cannot hear. Should I invest in a baby monitor now or would it be better to invest in a decent security camera system instead? I'm based in the EU and am quite tech-savvy so I don't have a problem setting things up myself if it means a better system.

I've been using Linux for about 7 months now and have become a lot more comfortable using the terminal but I feel like there is more that I can learn. Most of my work is done in a browser or [DaVinci Resolve](https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve). I do try to use the terminal where possible but it's limited due to my workflow. Are there any interactive sites where I can practice/learn the terminal? I'm going through [Linux Survival](https://linuxsurvival.com) at the moment. **EDIT:** I forgot to add some important details. I don't have a massive need for the terminal for my current workflow but I think it is important to know (looks good for any future job applications as well) and expand your knowledge on things that interest you when possible. In the future, I hope to have a home lab/NAS running Linux. I will most likely SSH into that and I'd like to deal with any issues via the terminal. I use Arch btw (technically EndeavourOS)

I was trying to find some medicine today and realised I need a better system to organise what I have and know what I don’t have. Currently, everything is kind of thrown into a drawer. Ideally it will be seamless enough that it doesn’t become a chore when I need to add or remove something. **EDIT:** Thank you for all the suggestions thus far. I just want to make a small clarification. I'm not looking for a system to organise the medicine/vitamins that I am currently taking (although the ideas provided are super useful). I'm thinking more along the lines of a "stock management" system for the stuff I am not actively using. I came across [this](https://www.sortly.com/solutions/home-inventory-software/) software as an example.

I often hear folks in the Linux community discussing their preference for Arch (and Linux in general) because they can install only the packages they want or need - no bloat. I've come across users with a couple of hundred packages installed (likely fresh installs), but I've also seen others with thousands. Personally, I'm currently at 1.7k packages on my desktop and 1.3k on my laptop (both running EndeavourOS). There might be a few packages I could remove, but I don't feel like my system is bloated. I guess it's subjective, but when do you consider a system to be bloated? I'm asking as a relatively new Linux user - been daily driving for about 7/8 months
