Unless IT has blocked it you should have share options for your Public Folder. At least that’s how it was when we ran it at a company. Every user had access to their own public share to share as needed. It was part of the Unix Model.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Turns out I have been updating wrong all this time! 🤦🏼English
2·8 days agoThe nice thing about zypper is the various patch options and reporting. Gives you a good picture of what CVEs, rating, and if installed, needed, not needed etc. Does Apt have something similar?
Vanadium on GrapheneOS will probably be what most people go with for website compatibility. Assuming they aren’t switching to GrapheneOS for the main aspects but just want to get away from google
And that years back they moved their servers from Canada to the US. That’s when I dropped TS and just did wireguard by hand.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What Is A Good Sub $300 Computer I Can Use For A Server?English

Just because you updated packages , doesnt mean those new ones are in use. Not sure what apt has, but with zypper you do a zypper ps -s and it shows you what installed packages are waiting on a reboot or service restart before they are in play… Otherwise kernel is just accessing old package libraries.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's a gadget or appliance that you purchased that you would wholeheartedly recommend to others?
4·23 days agoThey heat efficiently rather than transfer through the stove and the pot, etc. And so fast.

privacy@lemmy.ca•The messaging app Session is in big financial trouble.
3·28 days agoThe article mentioned its a developer staffing thing. Transmission of messages is “free” but somebody has to develop code and counter exploits with patches. And run a server that helps clients find each other—i presume.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Can btrfs snapshots help me recover from botched attempts to follow online guides?
4·1 month agoYes. Snapshot…make your changes… Try the system…and if it is messed use the old snapshot.
If you try tumbleweed the snapshots are also integrated to the grub menu so you can boot to any snapshot, and if you like the one you booted to you issue sudo snapper rollback and that makes your current snapshot the default.
It also has auto snapshots anytime you use the GUI yast tools, or other CLI tools like zypper, so you don’t have to manually created snapshots. Also has cleanup schedule to remove old snaphots either by date or number of snapshots

2·1 month agoThe address bar you have is set to a search engine such as google or duckduckgo, its those search engines that will auto fill as you type, if you don’t have it in your browser history.

1·1 month agoDon’t browsers already give out what program extensions you have associated? So that the browser knows how to handle certain web requests? I’m sure its not just linked in gleaning that info. Just they have more personal info. The article doesn’t say any specifics just fear points. And this is from me, a person who values their privacy and runs Linux and GrapheneOS phone.
This misses the “What dobyou want for your home folder?” -Part of main root structure / Partiton? -Separate Partition mounted at /home?
- do you want xfs, ext2, ext3, ext4, btrfs, zfs?
- do you want snapshotting of home?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How would you respond to the statement "Trans women are biologically male" ?
1·1 month agoI was only explaining what they meant, not conjecture. There’s like 40+ DNA xy type variants…there’s an info graphic somewhere. Biology DNA would also be different than phenotype oresented.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Open-source options for screen sharing with participant annotation?
31·1 month agoRustsesk will let you remote control, its basically a clone of teamviewer


All the Linux installs I’ve done have a public folder in the user home directory as default.
And for example in Gnome settings you turn on the sharing option/password.
I realize that doesn’t give you samba sharing with user name access though.
