  • It’s not just comments and I’m not talking just about me.

    You and I and Mel Brooks all know that the common person is a moron.

    Algorithms push misinformation. Bots push information. Are we limiting free speech by saying “you can’t use algorithms and bots to spread lies”?

    Does lying count as free speech?

    For example: I used to like Facebook for seeing what my friends are up to. It’s not that any more. I would be rid of it but I’m a freelancer and a lot of my clients insist on using it.

    Now it’s a constant feed of shit I didn’t subscribe to designed to stoke the culture war. Even the shit I did follow way back when I still used it a lot now shows me posts designed to make people argue. It’s like 5 posts I didn’t ask for to every one that did. I’m smart enough to see it, but is everyone?










  • From what I understand this is a problem with FAT32 formatted drives specifically since it doesn’t use the Linux file system. Reformatting is not an option at the moment.

    What this does is give my user ownership when you plug in a usb device, which allows rw.

    I have it set up to mount on startup, but it mounts to root ownership. Now, I remount it and the owner becomes my user.

    I honestly can’t remember what I did to make it happen, but it always mounts to /mnt/drivename

    I’m using this for a Jellyfin server. Before I added this rule, I couldn’t add folders past the drive itself as a library, so I see this as progress. I just want to edit meta data now.

    Edit: I do have it in my fstab file listed by device ID with these settings:

    LABEL=drivename /mnt/drivename/ auto rw,user,exec,nofail,x-gvfs-show,dev,auto 0 0
