Yeah you gotta disable bitlocker.

You gotta have your ~/ashdkeuh/

Especially for systems remotely managed by ssh:

~/Desktop/stuff/mystuff/junk/funny/

Sid is a real pain in the butt.

Good looking out. I only saw the one inline with your post body.

You’re on sid, using cosmic and have a read only root filesystem. Is there anything else out of the ordinary with your computer? You replied to another post that you removed additional repos from sources but did you get the ones in sources.d/?

E: sources.list.d, not sources.d

I gotta ask this:

What’s the output of apt —fix-broken install, like the big red error message suggests?

I also gotta ask:

What distribution and release?

MONEY can be spent on GOODS or SERVICES

Nah they’re right.

.mpreg uses a sophisticated algorithm to identify repeated sections of the compressed file and retain only one of each part with a list of pointers to where they go. The single repeated sections are stored inside the end of the file and during the decompression process they’re inflated and passed out of the end of the file (or removed from the file by cutting into the bitstream at their stored location where they’re inflating).

It’s a new technology that has made traditional file creation kind of obsolete. In about a decade there will probably only be mpreg.

Youre working at this from the wrong angle.

You dont know how to judge if something bad has happened. You dont know what to do if something bad had happened. You dont know how to recover from something bad that may have happened.

You do know that something has happened because the computer is exhibiting different behavior now.

You cant know what happened and it’s not worth the time for you to develop the skills and tools to understand or even be able to use systems like virustotal et.al. which might provide some insight.

Stop using that computer. Turn it off.

If you don’t know where your data is saved, figure it out. If you determine that you want to save data off that computer, pull the drive and order a usb to sata or m2 adapter, whatever the drive is. Plug the drive into the adapter and attach it to a different computer, copy only what you need.

Do you have a way to reinstall windows? If not, go to massgrave.dev and figure it out then reinstall windows.

Do you have some system for backing up your computers? Go ahead and test it out now. If you don’t have a system, decide on one. It could be as simple as an external drive you plug in once a week and as elaborate as you like.

Now you have recovered from whatever happened and you have a system and toolkit for dealing with it if it happens again.

First of all: get rid of the broken ones. You’re not doing anything with the running systems, so there’s no need to hang on to the ones that don’t run.

Next, make a list of the things you want to do and start doing them.

If you’re worried about power consumption, don’t be. If you’re still worried about power consumption, get an inline watt meter (a kill-a-watt), take some measurements, do the math and feel at ease. If you don’t feel at ease, look up wake on lan. You can have powered down computers turn back on when they get a packet so you don’t need to worry about power consumption.

When you feel like you’ve done enough stuff, get rid of the computers you’re not using.

Atop, btop, htop, top.

If that’s not good enough sar.

If that’s not good enough, set up cacti.

When you realize none of that stuff is actually helping you, journalctl and grep.

I have both and I use both.

The big benefit from mullvad is that you can get anonymous much easier, it’s easier to ditch an account and it’s harder for you to screw it up. People get mad about proton turning over metadata to authorities or suspending account access but they’re required to do that by law if they can identify the accounts. The structure of what proton offers requires that they have some way of verifying who a user is, so if you’re okay with being able to be identified if someone really tries (or doesn’t really try that hard if you give them payment information or something) then proton is fine for you.

Air is a good cheap vpn for piracy. If you wanna take the maybe smarter route of using separate services for your own privacy and for piracy that’s what I’d do.
