Do you use vim? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Do you use vim as your default text editor? If you do not, have you ever been in a situation you could do nothing but use vim?

fastlydns connection fails in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] pixeldaemon@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

It used to try IPv6 but I've disabled it in some config. It worked for one time, but the next session it stopped (but it still connects via IPv4) Btw going to debian.map.fastlydns.net from a browser (as if it was a website) returns "unkown domain", while pinging it works. This seems weird.

I can't install anything because connection to debian.map.fastlydns.net is stuck at 0%. However, pinging it does work. I suppose it is caused by my ISP since. So, what should I do to fix that? Is switching to a mirror going to help?

Accidentaly broken USB in c/hardware@lemmy.world
[–] pixeldaemon@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Update: I've abandoned rescuing the USB and just flashed another iso with balenaetcher, and it booted normally. According to my previous experience, the USB will be fine once formatted from this state. But I would still like to know how to rescue dead USBs like in my case. So, don't use ventoy unless you really understand what you are doing.

Accidentaly broken USB (sh.itjust.works)
 

I've formatted a USB after it was used for an iso with ventoy, and now the usb doesn't work. Google says I have to clear the USB, create a primary partition and format it to fat32 (via diskpart) but I'm stuck with "no volume for this partition". "Create volume" doesn't help: it says the disk isn't dynamic What should I do?

How to really find friends by interests? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I lack friends to discuss interests with. I want to study programming but have no peers in the field. They say "Hang around five billionaires, and you'll become the sixth", and I believe this statement is a crucial thing about personal development. Networking is not my strong point, and communities often gatekeep unexperienced newbies. So, how do I actually find interest-based buddies?

I wish I could use Graphene but I'm afraid I won't manage rooting a Honor

Once I tried rooting an old ZTE and even then I failed

I'm not sim-swapping at all, but I have recently placed my phone into faraday cage, maybe that was the trigger?

Carrier-locked phones are not common in my region. Maybe it's Huawei's tricks?

Why are default apps resetting? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I've switched some default apps in Android 9, but they're occasionally resetting back to the preinstalled system options. How do I prevent it and why does it even happen?
