My first simple use case: I want to start a http (busybox httpd) server on localhost inside a certain directory whenever I turn the PC on.

At this point you can copy Chinas great firewall I guess.

a hobby project: generate a rss feed based on recent file changes in a directory. But I thought this can also have many applications …

  • auto formatting code files on change
  • automatic backups of a certain folder: run rsync on change in folder.

I found this answer helpful, can you open it? https://lemmy.ml/post/35169048/20671736

Recently they switched to a more public court-order based approach.

But my thought on this is as well: Once their domain name servers are configured according to law, can they force us to not use other domain name services?

Yeah after searching on the arch wiki, I guess systemd timers, not services, are specifically what I was interested in, thanks!

so once I delete the email contained in that field, it will be deleted on the server as well I hope? I should look this up in the lemmy code i.g.

does lsblk detect the device?

If you are paranoid enough: Run all pypi packages in a QubesOs virtual machine I guess?

After some suggestions to check out inotifywait I ended up with a solution that works for me as desired.

inotifywait --event modify,create ./targetfolder/; echo "new change, that I am interested in, occurred in targetfolder";

It turned out I was interested in both file modification and file creation events.

Thanks for your hint! After some experimentation and man page reading, this was what I was interested in:

inotifywait --event modify,create ./targetfolder/; echo "new change, that I am interested in, occurred in targetfolder";

I was interested in both file modification and file creation events.

Have you ever deleted a google account before? Any Experiences? What should one know about this? Do you trust them to really delete everything?

 

They did similar things to block the pirate bay, I guess 💀

 

Have you ever deleted a google account before? Any Experiences? What should one know about this? Do you trust them to really delete everything?

 

I think there are multiple things one could do to achieve this, but am uncertain which way to go:

  • if you use systemd create a systemd service I guess? How to create systemd service that runs a (python) script on startup?
  • some files similar to .bashrc always run on system startup/boot?; use this if you are less fancy / have no systemd
 

I would classify this as a matlab alternative. Plot stuff. Do Matrix calculations with direct (syntax) support in the programming language.

Using a shell script, can I watch a folder and block program execution until a file in a certain folder changes?

Can other lemmy clients or the server admins see the email address associated with my account?
