So I was using this script to batch convert my flac files into opus but when I noticed a small problem with a particular album. If the song name has a period in it, the script will cut the name off there for the renaming. How I can make it checks for more periods in the song name and only cuts when it finds the last period?

for i in *.flac;
do name=`echo $i | cut -d'.' -f1`;
echo $name;
opusenc "$i" "${name}.opus";
done

botnet free? other than using a fpga i don't see what could guarantee you to be botnet free.

Ok, so I have some experience with linux, but more command line experience since I've been using the terminal on OSX and now windows (with WSL). On both systems I have fish, tmux, ranger, and I'm a heavy vim user.

Given that, I would like a distro that's not botnet, fairly lightweight in that it should not even have a WM installed since I'll be going with either i3 or AwesomeWM. Is Debian a good choice?

>>
>>60677428
If you have a recent GCN-based Radeon card (e.g. Rx 200, Rx 300, RX 400, or RX 500 series) then you have two options:

Free amdgpu driver which is widely available. I hear it has better OpenGL performance than the proprietary driver (but I can't check myself right now, sorry).

Proprietary amdgpu-pro driver which is officially supported only on Ubuntu LTS, RHEL/CentOS, and SLED/SLES. It has good OpenGL performance and really great Vulkan performance. My FPS gains have been around 50% on Vulkan (tested on Talos Principle with RX 460).
>>
>>60676745
>>60676790
quote your variables
stop using backticks, use $() instead
>>
>>60677573
Thanks. I have RX 480 and I mostly play DOOM these days so I will go with the proprietary driver.

>>60677636
You can download it straight from AMD's site and the installation is pretty straightforward.
Also, contrary to what is mentioned in the release notes, you *don't* need the LunarG Vulkan SDK to use Vulkan. At least not on Ubuntu. I haven't tested on CentOS.

>>
>>60677692
That's very little information and even then it would be hard to debug.
But if you have an Intel CPU, the first thing to do is to check if microcode gets updated on boot.
>>
>>60677636
if youre going to go for the proprietary driver it is my opinion to set up a windows partition and install games to that.
>>
>>60677772
I installed arch following this:

I haven`t started messing with kernel yet, yes, I am in an intel i7 gpu, GT540m graphic card.
>>
>>60677428
steam games usually prefer the proprietary driver. Try the libre drivers (radeon for old cards, amdgpu for not-so-old cards) first thou.

x200 running Ubuntu. I've got 6GB RAM installed and 6GM swap. free -h shows that 1.2GB of memory is used but none of the swap is used. /proc/sys/vm/swappiness is set to 60. How can I utilize the swap space? I've got a program that requires a minimum of 4GB RAM and it won't be available if I'm running firefox at the same time.
>>
>>60679860
Swap is orders of magnitude slower than RAM, so of course your computer tries to avoid using it if at all possible (even with swappiness of 60). When the RAM starts to get full though, it will start using the swap as needed. You don't have to worry about it.
>>
>>60678983
Sed *is* basically the standard utility.

Not to say you couldn't use perl, python, awk or other tools, but even then it's generally going to be ideal to use regex.
>>
>>60679860
> it won't be available if I'm running firefox at the same time
No, it should just start utilizing swap at that point.
>>
>>60679970
Just thought there could be a hidden feature in some utility like cat -s, col -b, expand or something. Anyway, will stick to sed for now.
>>
>>60679943
>>60679989
Oh okay. Thanks. I just thought since swap hadn't been utilized there might have been an issue with taking advantage of it. What does the swappiness number stand for? A usage percentage for when swap is supposed to kick in?

>>60680082
Not really.

Seems like an entirely unnecessary downgrade from a proper package manager or container-based management like Docker/rkt.
>>
>>60680212
i don't get it. electron is not an package manager. it's an api to write native desktop applications with javascript or any language compiling to javascript.

the infamous atom editor is an application made with electron.

see more example here https://electron.atom.io/apps/

>>
>>60680010
It's probably somewhere, but regex is the standard way anyhow (especially with how trivial that one is).

That said if you must have a tool for this somehow, look at:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/strip-ansi

Obviously python perl etc. also have functions for this. Mostly just hides the regex though.

You're launching a full instance of google chrome every time you edit text.
And if you're running chrome already, that means you have 2 instances of google chrome open?
Do you use discord's desktop client maybe?
Now you have 3 instances, and they don't intermingle.
Suddenly now you have 6GB of used ram and web browsers masquerading as desktop applications that will literally destroy your battery life constantly waking to animate a blinky cursor.
>>
>>60680085
been on and off with it since i main gnome 3. it's pretty neat with it, but could get the tiling windows with screen/tmux if you wanted to go with smaller footprint.
i think it is made with D, so that's cool but don't really care about that, just with it since it has a bit more gnome integration.
also, never liked barebones terminal emulators, so take that how you will.

the usual given reasons are

- web app styled
- memory consumption is bigger
- bloat

it's because the electron api is based on chrome to provide a cross-platform environment.
>>
>>60680257
Then you see how this virtual machine / runtime environment does *nothing* about managing the huge amount of applications released?

[Apart from electron-packager, which I wrongly thought was part of the standard electron - but apparently it wasn't. Sorry.]
>>
>>60680410
Look, the JVM and all the languages supported on it (just as many languages if not more) can already do this with more performance.

It can run both GUI applications and web applications.

Python also can do it. And Perl. And Ruby. And so on.

Really, we did not particularly need electron, even though I'm sure it makes JS coders happy and some will make applications it's not going to revolutionize anything nor is it even particularly innovative.

Arch is not an option.
>>
>>60680336
that's the same with java or any virtual machine. using a browser actually does make sense when you think about it, a web browser has

- a renderer
- a audio/video api
- a system api
- sandboxing for secure execution
- a jit compiler (v8 is probably the current state-of-art jit compiler)

today web apis allow you do have an interface like with the desktop applications.

There is bloat, sure, but the level of productivity has never been this high.

>>60680444
a electron is like any application, it should be managed by a distribution maintainer and you should install it through your package manager.

Yea, my bad - confusion about the extent what belongs to the standard electron.

Anyhow, just another very big application stack with no really interesting properties other than catering to <one more programming language>.

10GB RAM to compile Atom the slightly intelligent text editor. We get to enjoy the properties of this slapped together bloat.

Hydrus can be very interesting and also has this functionality (pHash-based plus it already has hashes for exact duplicates when you insert the images).

Spent the better half of a day making MusicBee run in WINE.

Runs pretty well, but if you're on arch you need the lib32-avahi to enable last.fm support.

Only real downside I've found is that if you edit config files to use a font other than the one it selects (because it won't let you use the default method of picking fonts), you lose CJK fonts.

I am a bit stuck with something that should be really simple.
I need to speed up part of a video and thought I could do this with ffmpeg.

This is what I am doing.
file="org_file.mp4"
part_1="1_normal_speed.mp4"
part_2="2_sped_up.mp4"
ffmpeg -i $file -ss 00:00:00 -to 00:01:00 -an -c copy $part_1 #this works fine
ffmpeg -i $file -ss 00:01:00 -to 00:05:00 -an -c copy part.mp4
ffmpeg -i part.mp4 -filter:v "setpts=0.25*PTS" sped_up_part_long.mp4
ffmpeg -i sped_up_part_long.mp4 -ss 00:00:00 -to 00:01:00 $part_2 #this works fine

ffmpeg -f concat -i <(echo -e "file '$part_1'\nfile '$part_2'") -c copy final.mp4

The two parts works fine and I can play them without any errors using vlc and mpv.
When I combine them in the final.mp4, I only get the first video.
I know I modified the timing, but I can't find any resources on how to correct the video.
sped_up_part_long.mp4 is still 4 minutes, so I cut it, is this the wrong way to do this?

Yea, sure. And just about every language is now fielding and expanding on a considerable array of web stacks.

Only some achieve not god awful runtime performance and RAM consumption though. Electron currently doesn't currently seem to be one of these.

It is to build a list of directories and reuse them easily in the command line

"pushd ." push current directory to a directory stack

You can list the pushed directories with "dirs" and "dirs -v" for a vertical view.

You can see they have an index. You can access them with "~1" for example.

Try this in your terminal:
cd /usr/share/themes
pushd .
cd ~
dirs -v
cd ~1

Is Arch a good distro for a beginner who wants to learn all about Linux? I don't mind a steep learning curve, and I prefer things to be transparent and functional rather than simplified and shiny. I checked the "babby's first linux" and Arch sounds pretty good, if a little less user-friendly than Ubuntu or Linux Mint, because of it's extensive wiki and software repository. I have some programming experience, but not a whole lot of experience using a command-line interface, if that makes a difference.
Also, what are the limitations of Wine? Would it make more sense to use a Windows partition for gaming if I don't want to tinker with something every time I want to play a modern game?

“LAMP” stands for “Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP”—a common combination of software to use on a web server, except that “Linux” in this context really refers to the GNU/Linux system. So instead of “LAMP” it should be “GLAMP”: “GNU, Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.”

Are you kidding? That's one of the most retarded features the new filepicker has.

Why remove shit from my list of files when all I want to do is jump down to a specific section in a long directory?
In GTK2 I could just type "P" or something and jump halfway down. In GTK3 it would just give me a fucking list

Then there's also the speed factor. Let's compare how I get to my "anime" folder
In GTK2:
>C-Enter-A-Enter
There is no delay it takes me there as fast as I can type that shit
In GTK3

I would just like to interject for one moment. The operating system you are suggesting for me to install, and rather commandingly might I add, will in fact, not directly solve my current problem at hand, and will actually cause me to ask further questions about the difficult process involved in installing it. Gentoo is a very nice operating system itself, but I'd rather you directly assist me in my quest to solve my current predicament.

I understand that many computer users run the Gentoo Linux operating system, and I realize they may enjoy it greatly and are not currently experiencing the current problem that I have whilst using my non-Gentoo operating system. Through a peculiar turn of events, I have noticed an enormous amount of users make the "Install Gentoo" suggestion, but many of its users are not aware that this suggestion, in most cases, is actually not an "easy-fix" to every single computer-related error.

There really are reasons for installing Gentoo, and there are people using it, but it is just for the few users who choose to compile their own source code locally according to their chosen configuration. Gentoo is just another operating system: the problems I am experiencing will not undeviatingly be solved if I make the choice to install it. All these so-called "Install Gentoo" suggestions I am noticing should cease immediately.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

>>60688084
/sys doesn't work like a normal filesystem: all of it is virtual.
You cannot create files there, and that is what sed is trying to do.
Also, when you're modifying something in /sys, you normally just write directly to the file
# echo "2" > /sys/module/hid_apple/parameters/fnmode

about gtk2 ok but what if the highlight is not in the list window? then your speed factor goes up. that's what i meant gtk2 is (understandably) not that comfy

>>60687845
add a ppa?
>>
>>60688147
like >>60688137 said

dev, proc, sys, etc are virtual; you can read and write, but not operate with these files like with normal files

these files are fakes to make it easy to interact with the kernel, drivers, etc. writing to such a file actually send a command to the kernel

a solution without the need of being root:

echo 2 | sudo tee /sys/module/hid_apple/parameters/fnmode

the reason why sed wount work is because the -i flag creates a temp file and then wants to overwrite the actual file, which obviously doesnt work

>>60688190
>results showed instantly
Tell my fingers that, they don't believe you.

You just didn't have a workflow that involved quickly accessing the exact same folders over and over
(For fucks sake, they even removed the "recent locations" section that was in the GTK2 filepicker)

As someone who could access the folders he often used probably about 5x faster than you, take my word for it, it's slow as fuck in GTK3
