Lvm could be the way to go. Start with the minimum amount of partitions (i.e. / and /boot and swap as lv, maybe efi as a real partition). Add additional lv later if/ when you need them. You can always re-size a partition and the wrapping lv when you want to re- distribute storage-space.

I never needed more than these partitions. But that is just my use case.

Edit: oh. Missed the Multi boot point. Forget what I wrote. :)

What the fork?

It felt unusual at first that they attached semantics to (white spaces and tabs as) non-printable characters. On the other hand other n.p.- characters like line feeds always had a meaning (I.e. within multi line strings).

So why not, when it helps to reduce the amount of (printable) characters to describe your thing and increase clarity? 🤔

Interesting. I learned something. Again.

Be aware that there are over 30 books by him out there.

All in all there are are like 40. At some point you will wish there were more.

Guards! Guards! is nice.
I also liked The Wee Free Men and a Hat Full of Sky.

If you like Andy Weirs novels, Tchaikowskys books are worth a try. I.e.:

Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky

No clue. :)

You haven’t mentioned the logs. Any hints there? System/ log files/ general. You can see there how a regular reboot/ shutdown should look like at least.

Is there a second device at the same outlet, that writes logs or shows its uptime? To rule out power outages.

Bios settings: is there a setting to power on the pc when the power is reconnected. (If it was an outage)

It wasn’t meant to deliver a solution. It’s an opinion (as in a piece of my point of view).

It’s just not the right way to go in my opinion. (And yes I understand the reasons why people choose what they choose. )

You seem ambivalent about the topic. I understand your arguments, but I don’t agree with your solution. That doesn’t need to bother you. We probably have very different requirements for transportation.

I live in an area where I don’t need a car to get where I want to - bike, bus and train are sufficient. And I don’t normally need to transport so much that I need a car. And if I need a car I get a rental for a short time.

Sometimes I shake my head a little in disbelief because I find the trend towards more individual transportation within large cars concerning. But then again my lifestyle isn’t for everyone and who am I to judge? (But I’m entitled to my own opinion. ;)

Just get an even bigger car, it will keep you safe from those.

Why do they wait in line for one guy? It’s just a select and there should be multiple employees at the counter, or not?

Arguably a big part of piracy is about digital distribution services (DDS). Just not the ones the digital rights owner had in mind.

“You are the number 1111 (base 255) for me.” isn’t even a backhanded compliment any more, or is it?

I mean, that puts the person in question behind 16.843.008 more favourable people (unless I’ve miscalculated).

You mean used their digits? There are only 8 fingers. But then there is also the octal system. And together with a friend you could count in hexadecimal… :)

I just realised that digits translates to Finger in german. And finger also translates to Finger. But you have 10 of the former and 8 of the latter. Funny.

threw out

But it was thrown in. 🤔

I looked up miter joint and butt joint and I’m beginning to understand what you wanted to say.

Yes, maybe.

It doesn’t hurt to know the basic commands to insert, copy, paste with vim. But with bim, handling the tool always consumed a too big percentage of my attention in respect to doing the task at hand. I still use it for small file changes.

Thanks for the short version.

Oracle happened to OpenOffice.

Formally, this is an example of positive punishment where the addition of a stimulus decreases the likelihood of the target behavior occuring again.

Yes, that’s what i meant. Thanks.
