Thats awful… but im not surprised. I witnessed similar when i used to contribute.

In any case i hate that theyre like this because there is a need for truly open camera firmware but their attitude makes me not even want to mention or recommend them. Especially not as a fully or truly FOSS solution

Thingino devs are bros and do it purely for the foss privacy philosophy. Contributions are encouraged and praised and the support is soo friendly and encouraging

I used to use openipc (that was the “alternative” i was referring to") but its not truly FOSS. Their default streamer is hidden behind closed doors and theyve also taken some contributions and added it to majestic never to be seen in the open again. You cant be sure what theyre doing there.

That said, it is a great alternative if you dont have ingenic based cameras. And they apparently now offer minimal other open source options for streamers…

Some of the key devs left and created thingino because of the whole foss thing. Imo theyre a much friendlier bunch too but thats purely an opinion

Why you decided to ask this question whilst hypothetically in the shower, im not sure i want to know

Crowdsec?

Check out thingino. Its a great fully open source project for privacy respecting firmware for ip cameras (unlike other alternatives) and a really helpful bunch of devs.

Might fit you well since you mention youre good with linux

I find if I have NTFS problems, throw it back on windows, do a disk repair then come back to Linux.

Also remember to fully shut down (not sleep or hibernate) windows before removing the disk so windows doesn’t lock up anything

Edit: the error actually tells you the latter of what I mentioned… So back to windows you go for a shutdown before removal

Most people have answered doing a rollback is the best way. I usually find some updates break things then later updates dont have the issues.

But I wanted to add if you go in to yast snapshots and double click a snapshot you can actually select specific changes to rollback via checkboxes. I’ve not tried this yet though because of dependencies and whatnot

Are you saying the drive still shows up on the side as ejectable? Or the mount directory is still there?

If the latter what directory is it mounted to? May just be as simple as deleting that directory if its empty. (Assuming its like /media/xxx/ or /mnt/yyy/)

Check with lsblk command if anything is in those directories

I could be wrong but I thought fstab only runs those commands on boot? If so you’ll need to manually unmount using “umount” for now. It shouldnt be there next reboot

Edit:

Scroll down about ¾ way down the sparkfun page that you linked, to the section that says “Linux” and follow those instructions

1. Read the readme file, either by opening in a text editor or typing “nano readme.txt” (then Ctrl+x to exit)

2. Type “make” and see if that works. If it complains, install what its complaining about

They had a very very similar thing in bicentennial man

Now explain why some people are “down for things” while others are “up for it”

Edit: someones already mentioned these below… nevermind!

If youre in the EU then EU parliament forced whatsapp to start developing cross-app communications with Signal, telegram etc. (Source). This was in 2022 and was due to be released in March 2024. Im not sure where it got to though since i dont use whatsapp, though i might start asking some friends to see if its rolled out.

Alternatively there are “matrix bridges”. Namely via Matrix which can link messaging apps through matrix accounts and send messages between

One of those “smart” alarms that monitor and graph your sleep. E.g movement, sounds, snorings, sleep talking etc.

At a minimum one that wakes you up in the 30 minute window of your lightest sleep phase

I use joplin with nextcloud and it works well. It supports webdav if you have other solutions, or even local filesystem with which you can use something like syncthing

This, as well as the fediverse’s double edged feature that stuff pretty much can never be deleted (only “requested”).

This sounds like a privacy nightmare

Like a project management software?

There’s Openproject and Leantime… not sure if its what youre looking for though Both self hostable
