When I still had a Samsung phone I used Heimdall, but apparently it was not touched for 5 years, so I’m not sure if it still works for newer phones.

I didn’t try it, but this looks like it should work.

And why do I want this? And if I want this, why is it not the default already? SSDs have been mainstream for ten years I guess, so shouldn’t any current Linux installer do the right thing by now?

Can you use pkill -f with the full command line? Or is it the same for all AppRun.wrapped processes?

I’m not familiar with pipewire, but is there a mixer somewhere in the pipe?

If nobody has a better idea, you could create a loop device with a HFS filesystem, copy the CD to that filesystem, replace all bad filenames, then copy everything to a normal filesystem.

Edit: apparently there’s a --iconv option in rsync: https://askubuntu.com/a/540960

https://askubuntu.com/a/1547100/16134 should work.

I have to use Windows at work, but I can use WSL on the developer laptop. Also I develop for/on Linux servers via ssh, so it’s good that I know Linux from home.

You forgot the -print0 at the end of the find command. In the read -r -d '' you want to read NUL-separated strings, so you must tell the find command to also use NUL characters between the filenames.

I found uPnP is not advised due to security risk

There are different uPnP things: one that lets apps open ports in your router (security risk) and one with media renderer (safe).

You said you/I/everyone can use multiple shells, I said: no, I can’t, at least not on all the machines that I have to use.

Some people work on machines where they are not allowed to install anything.

There’s jc (CLI tool and python library that converts the output of popular command-line tools, file-types, and common strings to JSON, YAML, or Dictionaries).

If you’re not allergic to Amazon, a FireTV stick might be enough, at least for Jellyfin, Youtube/Netflix etc. (not sure about streaming from the browser).

They could buy a chip card.

I use ctrl-r.

The Raspberry Pi Zero in USB gadget mode can be used for GPIO. If you don’t want to setup gadget mode, get Pi Zero W.

Also there’s a timeout setting in the same file.

You can update and it won’t break anything, because Intel microcode won’t be loaded into AMD CPUs. If you run apt show intel-microcode it tells you that there is a amd64-microcode package as well. If it is not already installed, you can install it, and then try to remove intel-microcode. If it doesn’t want to remove anything else (e.g. the kernel), you can remove it. If not, just leave it installed.

Or just use completion: press tab once or twice after the ssh command (and a space). If that doesn’t work, install the bash-completion package.
