#Admin

The script worked exactly as hoped. I'm chuffed.

#Admin #Bash #Kernel #Linux #LinuxMint #ShellScripts #Terminal

Running shell script showing the successful detection and removal of an inactive kernel and its supporting files.The result of rerunning the script after the inactive kernel removal. Current running kernel: 6.17.0-14-generic
No inactive kernels found

This is the first time I've gotten around to trying this #ShellScript I wrote.

It detects and remove superseded kernels that are no longer being used by the system. The script stops and waits for confirmation to remove the kernel files before proceeding..

I wrote in almost immediately prior to upgrading @linuxmint 22.2 to 22.3.

I'll report back soon.

#Admin #Bash #Kernel #Linux #LinuxMint #ShellScripts #Terminal

A text editor window that displays the contents of a Linux shell script to detect and remove superseded kernels that are no longer being used by the system. The script stops and waits for confirmation to remove the kernel files before proceeding. I have a high degree of confidence the text o the script is not ScreenReader friendly.

#NHS #admin is awful. 2 weeks ago I arranged a video call appt with #Moorfields (Bedford) for next week. This week I got a reminder txt about my appt *at the hosp* not video, I wasted ages checking but it seems they use the same txt for both. Today I got a link to the video call portal. It only works on Chrome or Safari. Not Firefox. 🤷‍♂️

[No further help is needed at this time, THANK YOU ALL!!]

URGENT MASTODON HOSTING HELP NEEDED:

Mstdn.games is searching for a new (MANAGED) hosting solution after our host has not responded to technical help requests, and the instance has been slowing and having technical issues for over a month. Auto payments have continued to be taken out.

If you know of anyone who could help with this, please contact me asap.

We are on Mastodon 4.5.5 with Elasticsearch.

Our database is 132 GB
Our media storage is 200 GB

Please help! #MastoAdmin #Admin

Edit: We are working to move away from hosting with toot.io after a poor experience and suggest that anyone else hosted with this provider consider their options.

Thank you to everyone who reached out to help us recover our server data to transfer - the process is in the works!

#IT #admin friends, I'm stuck. I'm pushing a #linux #debian config to some computers in my school after forcing it to #apt install what I need, and then copying a skeleton of config files. Systems are in French (FR-BE) set during installation.

For some reason, #Firefox (available without an extra install), stays in English. I want to avoid requiring manual work to switch all instances to French.

I have tried tweaking prefs.js, user.js, policies, ... But nothing wrks. At best, A prompt shows up in the options, which requires a click.

Any idea how to natively have FIrefox in French, or if in English, to switch it to English in an automated way?

Thank you!

Ich brauch mal Input von den Admins unter euch. Ich möchte gern die Reihenfolge der Apps in der Navigation ändern.

Normalerweiße würd ich das über das AppOrder Plugin machen, aber das lässt mich in keinem meiner Browser die Reihenfolge ändern. Weder in Firefox, noch in Safari, Edge oder Brave.

Drag & Drop funktioniert einfach nicht. Gibt‘s hier andere Möglichkeiten?

RE: mastodon.social/@Mastodon/1159

Quoting this good thread from Mastodon official that they're "work[ing] on a new onboarding experiment for #Mastodon: Default Server Recommendations" which will recommend closest geographic server in the correct language that:

1. Run default Mastodon (with a "for now" codicil)
2. Agree to the Mastodon Server Covenant ( joinmastodon.org/covenant )
3. Have been around at least a year and have both shutdown and disaster plans

There are more details in the thread and particularly in the replies - e.g., why it'll be rolling out to mobile clients first, while web will take longer. There are good reasons for it.

I like it on first read. Seems like good stuff.

Das war heute wieder ein sehr schöner FriendicaPlausch. Vielen Dank an euch alle.

So ganz nebenbei haben wir uns darauf verständigt, einen weiteren Termin zu planen. Dieser Termin richtet sich dieses mal an die #Admin:s in Fediverse. Wir sprechen über das Aufsetzen eines Servers, die richtigen Einstellungen, Wartung & Pflege, sowie über deine konkreten Herausforderungen.

Fühle dich herzlich eingeladen, wenn du selbst ein erfahrener Admin bist, erstmals einen Server eingerichtet hast oder planst, deinen eigenen Server aufzusetzen.

Auch hier wird es keine Agenda geben.

Hello Mastoot !

Comme dit dans l'annonce du serveur, le stockage est quasiment à saturation !

Du coup, je suis en train de faire passer ce stockage simple à un stockage S3, il y a quand même plusieurs centaines de Go de fichiers, ça va être long.

En attendant, les inscriptions sont fermés, le tout se fait en prod c-à-d sans interruption de service. Néanmoins, je serais obligé de couper quelques minutes durant la bascule dans les 48/72 prochaines heures !

W dzisiejszym tutorialu z cyklu Porady Admina przybliżę program lzip. Lzip to bezstratny kompresor danych z interfejsem użytkownika podobnym do gzip lub bzip2. Lzip wykorzystuje uproszczoną formę algorytmu LZMA (Lempel-Ziv-Markov chain-Algorithm) zaprojektowaną w celu zapewnienia pełnej interoperacyjności między implementacjami. linuxiarze.pl/porady-admina-lz
