fclones https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones looks great but I didn't use it so can't vouch for it.

FWIW just did a quick test with rmlint and I would definitely not trust an automated tool to remove on my filesystem, as a user. If it's for a proper data filesystem, basically a database, sure, but otherwise there are plenty of legitimate duplication, e.g ./node_modules, so the risk of breaking things is relatively high. IMHO it's better to learn why there are duplicates on case by case basis but again I don't know your specific use case so maybe it'd fit.

PS: I imagine it'd be good for a content library, e.g ebooks, ROMs, movies, etc.

Neat ,wasn't aware of it, thanks for sharing

if you use rmlint as others suggested here is how to check for path of dupes

jq -c '.[] | select(.type == "duplicate_file").path' rmlint.json

I don't actually know but I bet that's relatively costly so I would at least try to be mindful of efficiency, e.g

  • use find to start only with large files, e.g > 1Gb (depends on your own threshold)
  • look for a "cheap" way to find duplicates, e.g exact same size (far from perfect yet I bet is sufficient is most cases)

then after trying a couple of times

  • find a "better" way to avoid duplicates, e.g SHA1 (quite expensive)
  • lower the threshold to include more files, e.g >.1Gb

and possibly heuristics e.g

  • directories where all filenames are identical, maybe based on locate/updatedb that is most likely already indexing your entire filesystems

Why do I suggest all this rather than a tool? Because I be a lot of decisions have to be manually made.

Edit: neat, it works! No BT though

[–] utopiah@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 months ago

Update : it works now! Just updated Danctnix and voila, WiFi networks detected and connected.

PS: no BT though

[–] utopiah@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 months ago

They say it works now already https://lemmy.ml/post/16943222/11704878 so updating at the moment.

[–] utopiah@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 months ago

See other comments, apparently WiFi is working now (I'm updating right now so can't confirm) and I forgot but for drawing it's just a touch screen, so it doesn't support "fancy" pens with e.g pressure iirc.

[–] utopiah@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 months ago

Right I should clarify I used only the "cheap" kind of pen that does not include pressure, as if used their fingers but with a smaller rigid tip.

Regarding WiFi working, thanks for the update, any pointer on how to do that? Just updating the stock Danctnix?

It is, if you are not ready to tinker I do not recommend it.

Yet, it works as-is, assuming you don't need to work wirelessly. I use it on a nearly daily basis and it's stable.
