Linux is a piece of shit fucking human operating system. Linus is a fucking nigger monkey who brags about his piece of shit operating system having 20 million lines of code. He literally brags about his piece of shit program that nobody wiants to go near because it's a clusterfuck, annd he's a fucking nigger who can't even write a fucking compiler; he sucks Stallman's cock. Fucking nigger.

is it possible to display images/video in ttyl? I heard that with libcaca you can actually play video without x or wayland, I think it was using mpv.

simple command to check if you're using a distro for retards:
grep -rlis 'DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE' /etc

>>60062762
- Explanation

In the for loop it is determenened if you've used the -F flag (for fullscreen), so that some flags can be changed depending on that later on, see the 3 places that start with

$([ -z "$fs" ] && echo -n

.
The first two make it so the child feh and mpv are executed in fullscreen if -F is passed.
The last one changes some flags for non fullscreen mode.

The main feh command is executed in thumbnail mode, with some preset values and actions.
You execute an action by hovering over a thumbnail and pressing the coresponding number.
The action that doesn't have a number is the main one and is executed on click.
When the main action is executed, it checks if the image you clicked on ends with .gif and if so, opens it and all the gifs in the file list in a mpv playlist.
If it's not a gif, it opens it in feh, this time in normal mode, with the same actions defined.
If you've used the thumbnail mode, you'd know that you cannot cycle through images by default, so I had to do this to fix that problem besides adding the actions.

The reason why It's mostly just one long command and why I didn't split it into more functions and variables is because feh actions don't see anything defined in the script.
So I had to embed code into feh actions.
You should be able to easily change or remove any line.
Just make sure to end it with a backslash.
Also pay attention to nested quotes and variables in quotes that need to be escaped in order to be interpreted later.

I highly suggest that you read through the feh man page, especially the part about actions.

When executing it, you can pass all the arguments that you'd normally pass to feh, including flags, files and directories.
You can overwrite a flag that's in the script on the command line.
You can also add more actions on the command line.

>>60062762
For what purpose?

>>60062723
https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/227001

>>60062779
it uses some kind of magic to turn feh into a suckless file picker for images, capable of sorting them etc.

>>60062762
>>60062771

It's a wrapper script for feh meant to make living on the command line without any graphical file managers easier.
>how do I use it
Save it as fehwrap in your ~/bin (make a ~/bin folder and add it to your $PATH if you haven't already)
Also do `chmod +x fehwrap` to make it executable.

Don't forget, you can use it as a file picker, that's what action1 is for.

You need to install xclip if you don't have it already in order to pipe stuff in your clipboard.
If you use GTK3 in your browser's shitty file picker, you can press Ctrl+l to get the pathbar and just press the middle mouse button (or Shift+Insert).


Here's one example of using actions.
Let's say you want to move some of the images you've downloaded into different folders.
You can do this

fehwrap -F --action1 'mv %F ~/images/anime' --action2 'mv %F ~/images/4chan/'

That will override the actions in the script (you don't need them anyway).
Now you can just press 1 or 2 when you hover over a thumbnail to move it wherever you'd like.
Not using ';' as you see in the script makes feh cross out the images that the actions were performed on.

read the feh man page

>>60062794
Thath's dumb.

>>60062762
I forgot to mention to replace the

    `# change this to your screen width` \
    --limit-width 1600 \

with

    --limit-width $(xdpyinfo | awk '/dimensions:/ { print +$2 }') \

>>60062762
You can press `a` to toggle actions as in pic related.

Also, I have to add, the non fullscreen window will stretch to be as long as the screen height.
Setting geometry in feh will open the tumbnail mode in the middle (you'd need to scroll up to the start).
If you don't like that you need to resize the window with your window manager.
This is what I used to limit the window heigth in i3

for_window [title="(?i)fehwrap-nofs"] floating enable move down 100px
for_window [title="(?i)fehwrap-nofs"] resize shrink height 900px
for_window [title="(?i)fehwrap-nofs"] resize grow height 400px

Mageia, Solus or Ubuntu?

>>60062762
Cut out from the man page about actions for the lazy

     -A, --action [flag][[title]]action
             Specify a shell command as an action to perform on the image.  In slideshow or mul‐
             tiwindow mode, the action will be run when the action_0 key is pressed, in list
             mode, it will be run for each file.  In loadable/unloadable mode, it will be run for
             each loadable/unloadable file, respectively.  In thumbnail mode, clicking on an
             image will cause the action to run instead of opening the image.

             If flag is ";", feh will reload the current image instead of switching to the next
             one (slideshow mode) or closing the window (multiwindow mode) after executing the
             action.  If [title] is specified (note the literal "[" and "]"), --draw-actions will
             display title instead of action in the action list. Note that title must not start
             with a space. If it does, the action is handled as if it did not have a title. This
             special case exists for backwards compatibility reasons and makes sure that actions
             like "[ -L %F ] && foo" still work.

             The action will be executed by /bin/sh.  Use format specifiers to refer to image
             info, see FORMAT SPECIFIERS for details.  Example usage: "feh -A "mv ~/images/%N"
             *".

     --action1 .. --action9 [flag][[title]]action
             Extra actions which can be set and triggered using the appropriate number key.

>>60063006
did you read his posts where he said he had no sound?

>>60063017
No, it will drop support for anything that isn't pulse (according to some).
I don't think that's gonna happen.
Maybe it won't have official support, but there are many intelligent people who don't use pulse that are capable of providing their own support.

>>60063035
Uh, yes, that's what I meant, probably I wasn't clear enough. For now I'm sticking with waterfox that also works somewhat better.

what DE should I use? i like the look and feel of gnome, and with dash to dock and flat plat gtk/shell themes it's basically my ideal DE. unfortunately, it lags horribly when dragging windows and makes my shitty PC get hot when just on the desktop.

the lighter it is, the harder it is to make it look nice, I suppose

Can someone explain to me how the "sleep" button on my keyboard works with GNU/Linux?

When I press it, my computer just suspends or goes to sleep, not sure. Anyways, I'm using GNOME and when I look in the keyboard shortcuts, there's nothing that tells it to sleep yet it just works.

The reason I want to know how it works is because I want to tell it to lock my screen when I press it, because right now when I press sleep anyone could just wake up my computer and use it.

Ok, this shit drives me crazy. I'm using debian stretch with xfce on my shitty lenovo laptop. I can't make shutdown and reboot work. The laptop turns off but the screen stays on (reached target shutdown) and i have to press the power button in order to shut it down. Sometimes the screen turns off but i can hear the laptop working. I tried messing with /etc/default/grub/, upgraded the bios, 4.9 kernel, but nothing works. The new kernel fixed it for a while but after a few reboots the problem is still there. Please help, i'm losing my fucking mind. Also, the laptop hangs on suspend.

There are two things on Linux that make me consider taking an IQ test just to see whether I'm retarded or not: running an ftp server, running a proxy server.

I try to set up either of them about once a year and every time I get kicked in the nuts by configuration.
I just want a simple thing, and I want it to work. But it never fucking does.

Am I retarded?

Yes. It was very very convenient when broadband was not so widespread.
I don't know if makes that much sense nowadays. I guess it's still easier than setting up a local repo.

>>60068156
Consider go for an ssh server instead. The ssh protocol can be accessed with lftp.

>>60068150
Yes, all the stable packages in main.

>>60068156
>Am I retarded?
Yes. Mainstream software for those protocols literally work out of the box. Isn't iptables blocking?

Are you trying to do something special with your FTP server? If not, why not just use sshd and sftp instead?
Also, what kind of proxy are we talking about here? Web proxy such as squid or something like ipsec?

I would use SSH if I could. But I'm dealing with some old and restricted systems, so not a lot of choice in software.

>>60068215
>work out of the box
... no?

In the case of FTP, all I want is to have a simple server I can start, log into it with an anonymous user, and use ftpput to upload some files.
vsftpd was complaining about permissions and writeable in the chroot or something.
bftpd worked locally but remote connections timed out. FTP tests showed that it returned local address when accessed remotely, so I set it to bind to my static IP but it could not do that.

I'm not asking for too much, am i?

>>60068275
SSH isn't an option.
Web proxy, specifically HTTP/HTTPS kind. I love using SOCKS proxy through SSH, but some programs require HTTP proxies.
I tried messing with Squid a while ago, can't remember what went wrong.

Hi guys! What would be an acceptable set up security related for a little homeserver with debian stable?

I already have iptables and fail2ban but I'm scared of leaving something not covered. Thanks fellow anons.

>>60068352
>I love using SOCKS
m-me too

>>60068353
If you have SSH disable root login and be sure to have a strong password for the user that can log in. Maybe change the port too.
And obviously install security updates whenever they are released.

Did you restart the daemon after editing bftpd's config? Did you try pureftp/proftpd?

Try squid again and tell US what goes wrong.

>>60068406
I already have that. Non root login, login with a key, port changed. Maybe user password is a little weak but they need 1st the key.

I'm running right now trasmission, samba, ssh.

python -c 'print "faggot"
works on all distros except arch, arch users need to either fix the python link or call python2 explicitly:

As far as web servers, both apache and nginx are fairly secure with default configs. The main concern is with security of the application (whether it be written in php, js, cgi). For example you have to be careful with all user input so you don't have shell injection, database injection, XSS, HTML injection etc.

It's not about the kind of private property you are thinking of.

>Hard-won, self-acquired, self-earned property! Do you mean the property of petty artisan and of the small peasant, a form of property that preceded the bourgeois form? There is no need to abolish that; the development of industry has to a great extent already destroyed it, and is still destroying it daily.

hey there, I've set up a webserver with nextcloud, a mail server and rainloop on a vps in the last few weeks, so I can share my experience a bit.
I also set up ssh the way you described. That should be safe. The next defense is my firewall (firewalld), which is set to zone=public and allows only relevant services (https, http, imap, smtp and ssh). Since ssh should be safe, I only have to worry about the rest. For http and https I only have Apache installed, so that's one thing to keep an eye on. smtp is postfix, and imap is dovecot, so when they are propely configured that door is closed as well.
All in all I have 4 programs to properly configure and keep updated: ssh, apache, postfix, dovecot. I split my time between the last 3 because ssh doesn't need that much setting up - apache however has the largest amount of possible errors (for the first few minutes/hours of running it, strangers could see the contents of my /var/www/html folders, for example.).
As for nextcloud and rainloop, I can only configure them properly and keep them up to date, so there isn't all that much I can do to keep them safe after I do those things.

I think failing at something is a really efficient way to learn - so I wouldn't worry too much about safety, you always make a silly mistake that you find later.
For example, at the moment I'm failing at setting up https for mydomain.com and mydomain2.com on the same server. mydomain works, mydomain2 doesn't. But I need to fail in order to learn how to succeed at this.
