I was at home earlier, I heard loud ice cream truck music outside, thought it was weird but I was quickly distracted by my kid and I forgot about it. Later I saw a report that an ICE vehicle had been driving around my neighborhood playing loud ice cream truck music. Columbia Heights
With everything thats going on, this has fallen through the cracks a bit - I have read that the trump admin has frozen SNAP, WIC, other funds to Minnesota, and I'm curious if anyone has any more information on this - are peoples' SNAP cards still working? Are there concerns that SNAP won't be re-upped in February? Any issues with MFIP right now? Issues with other benefits? Or is everything ok with this stuff and am I just making it up in a fit of stress-related paranoid ideation? I have seen scattered reports of SNAP cards not working but I've heard very little else. Any info is appreciated. Thank you, stay safe.
The abusers in the Trump admin are cutting some very important social services funds to MN (and four other states that they don't like). I don't know much about the Child Care and Development Fund or the social services grants being cut, but I do know that a lot of MPLS families rely on the TANF funds (MN families know this as MFIP) to survive every month. Without MFIP money keeping many families afloat, the Twin Cities will be hungrier, more desperate, and frankly more dangerous. Tragically ironic that the bored Fox News people sat around for years making up stories about how bad it is here so they could gain control and ACTUALLY make things bad here.
I'm looking for some informed opinions

Hi, I'm noticing that when Docker updates, it changes the root directory back to the default. In my case, I've modified the root directory to be on my nvme drive, and not on the SD card that the raspberry pi boots from. This is about to become a bigger problem for me, as my docker root directory will be too large for the SD card.
My question - is there any way to prevent docker from re-assigning the root directory upon update?
(I am aware that one potential answer to my problem would be to have the entire system boot from the nvme instead of the SD, but I abandoned this a while back because of issues converting the nvme's MBR to GPT, which is necessary to make use of the entire 4tb of th
I have two buddies who live a few blocks from each other, using the same ISP. We've tried it every which way but those two just cannot get connected in matchmaking. Those two haven't played games together online before. Am I right to suspect this is a CG-NAT issue? Any other possible explanations? Anyone else dealt with this? Any workarounds? Thanks!
Hi, I'm trying to set up a simple home server using a raspberry pi 5 and a 4tb NVME drive. My problem is that the 4tb nvme drive only shows ~2tb to work with at install. I'd appreciate any tips to help me understand what's going on or how to fix it, I'd like to use as much of the 4tb as possible for storage.
I've installed this setup a few times, first booting the pi os (w desktop) from the ssd card (mmcblk0), then running the raspberry pi imager and writing the new os to the nvme drive, then setting the system to boot the headless raspberry pi lite os from the nvme.
Output of lsblk:
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS
eh?
Man, I almost forgot that today is the primary. I plan to go cast a vote for Ilhan Omar after work. if you have any cool candidates that you're supporting, let us know in the comments! #DEMOCRACY
Hi, thanks in advance for any support with this issue. I'm in over my head but I'm learning a lot through this and I'm excited to learn more. This may be more of a hardware issue than a Linux issue. I left a few questions at the bottom of this post.
I am trying to install MxLinux 23.3 Libretto on a Lenovo Thinkpad T420. The laptop used to be owned by a corporation, which may be central to the issue here.
Also important: I was able to install and boot a few versions of Linuxmint without issue. (My backup plan here is obviously to abandon MXlinux and use mint). The hardware is not damaged.
When I install MxLinux, I am unable to boot from the disk afterwards. I am given the following erro
hallo, we're spending a few nights in Berlin soon. we'll have our young child so we mainly wanna hang in the parks, eat wurst and kebabs, take in the vibes. just curious, where would you suggest we'd stay with these objectives in mind? thanks in advance for any help.
Hi, just looking for suggestions on this odd problem that I've been putting off. When I bought my house a few years ago, sitting in the corner of this old shed was a 55-gallon drum of old oil, and of course I procrastinated and it's still there. Part of the issue is that I cannot physically move the barrel without emptying it. Does anyone know of some kind of service to have this removed? or any other suggestions on how to handle getting rid of this? Also, I technically live in Columbia Heights, just over the line from MPLS, so I wouldn't qualify for any Minneapolis municipal services.
thanks I'm advance for any help with this!
