Although, you could definitely just grab the entire root FS and call it a day

But maybe not the most efficient way. :)

Yeah, that could work, some kind of auto-reinstall script

Ansible has a really nice way of doing this. It's been on my list for way too long to set up a system reinstall "playbook"

how do you guys backup your installation ?

tar

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/TAR

are you using this tutorial ?

tar

tar won't do you much good if the backup is on your local system. ?

I always use tar for backups in my own script. It encrypts tarball and upload it into Amazon.

This is a more helpful explanation then :)

How Fedora? Unity was unusable upstream as Canonical contributed nothing Unity upstream...

I'm confused.

borgbackup is nice

I also use borg

Hey! I'll have to update the wiki page with Telegram groups and channels.

Hey! I'll have to update the wiki page with Telegram groups and channels.

Thank you for keeping the wiki up to date too. ? What page are they on now?

In the same wiki from before, in Fedora. I haven't the link right now because I'm on mobile.

Hello Nelson & Niko ! Welcome aboard!

Thank you for keeping the wiki up to date too. ? What page are they on now?

What do you think if we put the telegram channel on websites?

Well, why not? I added them to a post on my site.

Sure, give me a second

What do you think if we put the telegram channel on websites?

I would ❤️ that!!

Preferably, I'd like to just keep it to this one

Can I have the link? ?

This is the article I mentioned but I see now it has no links to the wiki nor a list of groups.

I'll fix that, probably tomorrow.

OK!

I would ❤️ that!!

Perfect, thanks. Will be sure to bookmark it from laptop soon.

I had a silly little adventure just now with a Fedora USB boot… all to get a unique disc ID from a music CD

Only problem is that the file system kept running out of room, almost immediately after boot

Doh....

Could you solve it?

never tried riot

How's it?

mhm it's feels a bit like XMPP just with a nice UI :D

I personally don't like it but there are a lot of fans out there

and it's more group orientated

How does it compare to jitsi?

Since they try to bridge all protocols together you end up in a very interesting setup

I can't say, never used jitsi

iirc you don't need an account to try it so it's your chance

ERROR: S client not available

How's it?

Could you solve it?

Well, eventually, on the third reboot. I was finally able to use MusicBrainz Picard to query the disc ID and submit it to the database. It was just a pain because half the time, I wasn't even able to open a browser because there wasn't enough disk space available, which didn't make sense…

I checked with df -h and the rewritable space should have had 1.5GB left, but…

https://opensource.com/article/17/5/introducing-riot-IRC

Heheh, this is my article. :) I am still using it, but I use both normal IRC and Riot!

I don't know, Riot doesn't have this IRC feeling. No netsplits, no joins and parts every day, persistent guests... And the protocol itself feel super clumsy. IRC is TCP socket -> ping pong, nick, user, join and you can start... That's something you can build with a named pipe and a telnet session. Matrix with all it's rest code and IDs... :/ Overcomplicated in my eyes

Eheheh I know! Great Justin! And tell me, what do you do with the nickname? Is it the same?

Then you're probably not the target audience. :) If you like IRC as-is, then no reason to swap just because. The Riot interface is great for some users because of its simplicity.

Eheheh I know! Great Justin! And tell me, what do you do with the nickname? Is it the same?

Since I use both IRC and Riot, my username from Riot is jwf|matrix. But if I was only using Riot, I'd just make it my normal IRC nick, jwf.

Ah OK! Because nick veon seems already take (and I suppose by me but I can remember the login pswd) and the nick in irc chat is veon... Then in riot.im I'm registered with veon_fpo so I have 2 nickname one official with fedora cloak and another one with [m] suffix ?

Just noticed ring is not beta anymore

You can reset the password for a NickServ account. From IRC, try /query NickServ and then type HELP, and there should be an option to send a recovery email to whatever email you used to register.

Then, you can log in with the cloak even from Riot. :) This is what I do with my account as well

Hey folks! Just a one-time mention it here since it's also FOSS (and available for Fedora), but I'm trying to start a community for MusicBrainz on Telegram, the open source music encyclopedia that collects metadata on music, artists, and albums from around the world. If you're familiar with it, or are interested in open source projects about music, feel free to check it out. :) https://t.me/musicbrainz
