yup that’s what I’m using. Wanted to know about this alternative too :)

Is its UI adapted to Android TV? Or does it look like on mobile?

I managed to solve it by automatically restarting the container once the drive is mounted, as the mount is done by a systemd service. Guess there were no permission issues

Nevermind, what I ended up doing is restarting the container just after the drive has been mounted. Which is easy because it’s a systemd service so I could use ExecStartPost

Thanks for your answer. I tried mounting it to a folder inside the one I’m using in the compose file but strangely it didn’t work. So I thought that the only way that wouldn’t need to delay docker start is to restart the container just after the drive has been mounted.

And that’s what I ended up doing as the drive mount is a systemd service and therefore I can use ExecStartPost to restart the container. That way this doesn’t affect other containers and also lets this one start even if the drive has not been mounted which I want in case there’s no internet connection

Thanks for your suggestion. That’s what I first thought but there are some issues.

I have other containers that do not require this drive to be mounted. Main problem is that if for some reason the drive cannot be mounted (e.g. no internet connection), then docker would not start any of those containers.

That’s why I need a particular solution. While writing this it has come my mind that I’ve got a container which mounts / as a read-only volume in its /mnt and it seems to work fine there. Maybe if I set the volume to mount /media/user instead of the drive it would work?

Don’t think it has to do with permissions as if I manually start the container after the drive gets mounted then everything goes as expected and the container has the files at /mnt

I mount it using rclone mount as a systemd service, just as they say in their guide

Not that you should return to Twitch but if you ever need to there’s this TTV LOL PRO add-on for Firefox/Chromium or you can just use a client such as Streamlink (with GUI and ttv lol support) for desktop or Xtra/Twire for Android with a custom proxy

I mean we love cats too. There are many stray cats but usually someone takes care of them in an altruistic way. For instance every time (and I mean every single time) I walk to uni I see the same woman feeding the same cats in the same place. Or in my town depending on the street, if you watch carefully you can see food bowls and water for cats.

Don’t know why ownership percentage is so low though. I’d say dogs are more popular, and birds probably for children.

Here’s what I ended up doing:

When the SSD arrived, I put it in the 2nd slot. Then, I booted Ubuntu in a Live USB and created the same partition layout in the new disk with parted.

1. Create the EFI partition and give it the same size
2. Do the same for the ext4 boot partition
3. Create a btrfs partition and give it the remaining size.
4. Encrypt this new partition with cryptsetup and mount it with the option luksOpen of cryptsetup.

Next thing was mounting the partitions of the old drive. And now, to clone the disk I first tried with brtfs-clone but as the size of what first were 220 GB increased to 260 GB, I tried just using btrfs send from the old disk and piping it to btrfs receive to the new disk. However the size didn’t change and still was 260GB, no idea why. I didn’t use dd because some comments recommended btrfs send/receive as it doesn’t copy the whole partition including empty space.

Once that was done I copied the /boot/efi and /boot partitions using cp and changed the uuids in /etc/fstab and /etc/crypttab to match the new partitions UUIDs (to know which UUID was each partition, I just used blkid and grep’ed the type of partition. For instance if I was looking for the new partition to replace the one with UUID a1b2c3, I would just use blkid | grep a1b2c3 and if it said it was a crypto partition, then blkid | grep crypto). Finally I deleted the Microsoft folder from /boot/efi as I would only use that disk for Linux.

So then I tried booting from that disk (and removed the other) but Grub was a mess - it just showed the command line. After some (stressful) hours, I found out that it was because Grub itself when first installed saves the UUID of the disk where the config is and searches for it there - so it was not using the config in the new drive.

Again, booted Ubuntu and mounted the new drive partitions. There I tried to just reinstall Grub in the boot partition but it seemed impossible because of some weird errors. So I just changed the UUIDs in Grub related files such as /boot/grub/grub.cfg and /etc/default/grub.

Tried booting again but as noticed earlier Grub was not loading the config file I edited, it was still trying to use the old one in the old drive which was removed and had the original UUIDs. Maybe just changing the UUIDs there would have done the trick but I didn’t try.

It was in that moment that I discovered the existence of configfile - a command that can be used from Grub’s shell to boot with the specified config file. Then I used configfile disk_and_path_to_grubcfg and bang! The OS selection screen appeared. At that time I had already put the old disk in the other slot as I thought everything was solved.

To my surprise, when I selected to boot fedora and typed my password to decrypt the drive, I booted to Fedora in the old drive! How could that be, if I really made sure that I was booting Grub from the new disk? So now the problem was that I was booting Grub (manually with configfile) from the new disk but the OS I was booting was in the old one.

After some time researching, the culprit was that while I changed the UUIDs in the grub.cfg config file, Fedora doesn’t add its kernel entries to that file but to the /boot/loader/entries directory. And there were the files I had to modify (just replacing the old UUIDs). One reboot (maybe also update-grub to update Grub config) and that was it, solved.

However there was one more thing to do. As I didn’t want to use the configfile command every time I boot, I just reinstalled grub.

So that was it. Hope it is useful for anyone who needs to do the same. Although the story doesn’t end there, because the new drive turned out to be defective and I had to order a new one to which I dd’ed (not going through all that again). You live and you learn!

Now I want to hear about The Lord of the Rings lore

GrapheneOS lets you choose whether you want to have a sandboxed google play installation. This way apps such as Maps work. Basically you are in control (except for Google Pay).

I have never used an eSIM, but I’d like to know about them. Can anyone explain what are some reasons to use it?

May I ask how you solved the screen sharing problems? Also do you use keybinds for apps such as discord? When I tried Hyprland none of them were working.

Your comment made me happy

I see, fair.

I’ve searched your phone on xda and it has some ROMs which support it. Not official LineageOS though 🥲

Aren’t almost all (at least photo editing ones) new Pixel 8 & Pixel 8 Pro features in the cloud? What things do you mean when you say Google is moving to local processing?

Thanks everyone for your comments and opinions. I ordered the Pixel 8.
