A sorcerer appears and states that they will erase any one song from existence - which song would you choose?
  • And with it delete Matt Mulholland's beautiful rendition on the recorder? I think not!

  • E, W & F
  • And monkey.

  • What is the most duct-tape thing you've done to Linux?
  • That sounds pretty much like what Dirvish and rsnapshot do. Both wrap rsync.

  • Does your FS support online resizing?

    Yeah. I mainly use btrfs; it supports online growing and shrinking.

    Be super careful about partition sizes. [...]

    I know. I have done plenty of same device partition resizing. I know the pit falls, and for safety shrink the FS to below what the LV is going to be.

    Have backups.

    Thanks for the reminder. I've been meaning to set up snapshot backups for this machine using rsnapshot as an experiment. I mainly use Dirvish

  • What is the most duct-tape thing you've done to Linux?
  • Nah, it'll be fine.

    I might have a large enough USB SSD laying around some where. I could probably use that instead.

    • extend VG with the USB PV
    • move LV's to USB
    • shrink root LV
    • resize boot
    • move things back on a new internal PV
  • What is the most duct-tape thing you've done to Linux?
  • That's not even a bad idea then.

    One of my machines has a boot partition that's a bit too small, on an otherwise LVM setup.

  • What have you played this week?
  • RNGesus

    I think you mean HeRNGmes

    But yeah Hades is a good game. Got it in the latest Steam Summer Sale. it's my current couch / big screen Deck game.

    My current desktop game is still Just Cause 2.

  • Kittens Game.

  • Ummm... What?
  • That one's a rollercoaster ride and a half. Thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one who's mind immediately went to Tickled.

  • Steam summer sale is on now! What games do you recommend?
  • Yeah, I probably should have clarified that a bit more.

    Stick Fight is an online multiplayer brawler. Think Smash Bros, but with super short rounds. Rounds lasting longer than 15 seconds are the exception.

    So it's a nice game to play while waiting for your other online gaming buddies arrive.

  • Steam summer sale is on now! What games do you recommend?
  • Stick Fight: The Game is super cheap, and a nice warming up game.

  • How to get good at FPS with a controller, coming from a PC gamer?
  • If you really rely on faster movement than what gyro+classic joystick provides: try gyro+flickstick.

    Flickstick does require some game specific tweaking. But it's the only controller input method my "30 years of playing fps on PC"-riddled brain accepts.

  • What is your favorite though provoking movie?
  • I love all of Aronofsky's film (except Noah; wtf was that). The Fountain is probably his best.

    • Single player (desktop): After finishing Red Faction Guerrilla, and trying Red Faction Armageddon but not really liking it, I settled on Just Cause 2 (again). Still as much fun as in 2013, when I last played it.
    • Single player (Deck): more Deep Rock Galactic:Survivor.
    • Co-op (desktop): Deep Rock Galactic, if my co-op buddies don't bail, that is.
