It’s not really broken, couldn’t get the microphone to work with any program
If you reinstall enough things, enough times, it becomes a kink.

sigh. here we go again…

“Copilot, show me Linux Rule 34”
You are edging?
Cool. I’m not into that kinda stuff, but whatever floats your boat :)
Oh god, you’re zip bomb won’t fit in my drive 😩

Button #3: Restore TimeShift snapshot.
1000% this. Just use BTRFS and avoid all the pain…
Honestly kicking myself for not having this setup on my last Linux install
Good news is it’s setup on my current install
Sometimes I learn my lessons the hard way… Multiple times.
This is how Tumbleweed cured my distrohopping—out-of-the-box Snapper meant painless rollbacks.
Pffft. I just boot from a live cd so changes are gone at reboot. Why install if you’re just going to break something?
In the olden days, I would have spent hours to fix it, completely forget everything I’ve done over the course of those several hours and then having to reinstall it bcs I’ve broken something else in those unsuccessful attempts and now dont have the energy to figure out this clusterfuck too.
Ahh, good memories.
Use Timeshift, use Timeshift, use Timeshift.
Press both
Terraform destroy
Terraform apply
Second approach is better as it teaches you to fix and understand the system you’re working with
Of course, this is a more complicated and energy - demanding approach, though. But if you wanna stay on Linux, you better figure such stuff out, this will be invaluable in the long run.
I should also mention that Debian, despite the Bookworm introducing more user-friendly options, is not a newbie-centered distribution and fixing things in there tend to be more tedious for an inexperienced user.
The upside, however, is that once you’ve set it up, everything will just work. But first you might face some pain.
I wish there was a way to see what the default values in a config file are for a given distro.
I’m guessing there probably is, and I just don’t know it.Maybe I should just make
/
a git repo…Don’t modify the config in
/etc/
, copy them in~/.config/
and then modify them. You’ll always be able to just look at the/etc/
for defaults.
Got into an argument about this once. The other person insisted that if I wipe my hard drive and reinstall, that I’m a pathetic moron who doesn’t deserve to use a computer.
In fairness, it’s usually better to fix things so you can learn, but dang they were toxic.
I’m a pathetic moron
“so there would be two of us then, eh?”
Debian is not a good distro for desktop usage. You cannot change my mind.
Can’t change your mind? I’ll just downvote you then :)
My wifi card just stops working after a resume from suspend. I cannot get it to come back after resume. After some time fucking with it, I just turned off suspend. And turned on close lid = power down. EZ.
I had this happen with my touchpad and started with the solution you did.
I figured out how to restart the touchpad at the kernel, which fixed it. Then, I figured out how to run those commands after it wakes from suspend.
Works like a dream now.
Lol I should probably grow up and figure out my problem instead of putting the bandaid on it.
