Let me know when you get past level 80 😅

Obviously:

😹 Not that I can separate the back of that page from the front of the next. Those are some thin pages!

🤣

Good point, there's no point in communication with someone acting in bad faith.

This is a work of art

I'm thinking the poster could easily use chatGPT the same way as his opponent, there is no advantage to one side or the other here.

The main value in introducing a third party (which in this case is software) is to take ego out of an argument and start arguing against a problem rather than a person. This is why I referred to it as therapy. chatGPT is an echo chamber of human writing with a few guardrails, much like speaking with an impartial therapist.

🤣 beautiful

Easy, just fine-tune your favorite llm to say you're always right 😹

What could possibly go wrong.

For real though this is a pretty good way to cope with communication breakdown. Idk why the poster of this comment doesn't try using chatGPT therapy as well.

That's crazy, I would never have expected that. Good to know!

Makes me wonder if Linux is playing nice with Microsoft or there is a mechanism to block device access.

This script? https://github.com/WeirdTreeThing/chromebook-linux-audio

I'm not familiar with bootc based systems but it looks like you could hack up the container spec here: https://codeberg.org/HeliumOS/bootc to build heliumOS with those changes. You would then use something like bootc switch ... to use it.

(Add a line in the docker file to install newer python and run the audio script. I'm not sure if the script requires changes for this.)

I could be way off base with this idea, I'm not sure how heliumOS expects users to install packages.

You may also be able to run the latest python docker image to run the script, but the way this script modifies system files shouldn't work on an immutable system.

Really just a guess but since others have pointed to bios raid stuff this may be relevant:

https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/SataRaid

But also you probably want to disable raid in bios if it's enabled.

Probably something in the bios

Locks as far as windows will not be happy that you changed them. If you're getting rid of windows don't worry about shutting down safely.

Do you not have root access or are you worried about using root access? Sudo will do the trick, you don't need to login as root directly.

Copying the whole image onto the device file will rewrite the partition table, boot flags and all.

But yes, usually this requires root equivalent capabilities.

🤣 damn I would've been looking for a new image to flash at that point.

I'm glad chatGPT didn't brick your system.

Where'd you get the audio setup script?

I think the key to this idea is that as long as the VPN only apps are running in docker containers, container networking can be used to restrict their traffic to the vpn.

Apps like qBittorrent support proxy connection options for this scenario without containers.

Sounds like time for a break to me! Any chance of warmer weather?

Renting a truck for work would probably be cheaper than hiring someone to finish the job.

Sounds terrible. Do you need the vehicle tomorrow?

Idk if this is actually a good idea, but I would try using a media server like mediatomb to index the files and serve them to Kodi. It's been a while so I don't remember if it was mediatomb that did the organization or not.
