Depends on the distribution, many package managers can filter by license. So you can find anything that doesn't have an open source license.
So what happens, does it just not boot? Any error messages?
Just come ask here when you have trouble, and we'll try to help.
When troubleshooting, the biggest thing is searching the web honestly. But some more things to help you out: look for logs. Linux has loads of logs and sometimes can tell you how to fix the problem.
Logs may not be immediately apparent. Some programs have their own log files that you can look into. Sometimes, if you run the program from the terminal, it'll print out logs there. Otherwise, you read look through journalctl, although this has logs for everything so might be harder to search.
Another useful tip, particularly for system tools and terminal tools, is manual pages. Just run man ls and replace ls with any command, you'll get the documentation on how to use that tool.
OpenRC btw 😁
There are many ways to do this, but the next up from users is using groups!
For each file or data directory, create a group that owns it. This group should have the service's user as member. Then create a user for running the backups, and add it to all these groups.
The benefit of this is you don't have to use root, and you have an association of directory to group that you can always change. You can for example grant a user access to a data directory by just adding it to its group.
I use gentoo btw
This is actually exactly what I asked for, thank you!!
The appeal for json and yaml is readability, and partially ease of parsing. I say s-expressions win over both in both aspects.
Can you please expand on your references to no-sql and your reference to "lightweight markup"? I don't quite understand what you meant there.
What's so good about it?
I never really quite understood IPFS and why it gets used where I see it today. What problem is it solving?
Normal people boycotting AI models will not stop executives from being hostile to artists.
Especially people who would have otherwise not paid for art.
Alt text: they hate to see me win. Good thing I don't.
Actually being able to self host and federate, and without any dependence on the main instance.
And ability to federate with other open and federated services, like how mastodon can federate with so many others like lemmy and pixelfed.
