I am trying to compile a program that requires the mmap(2) to support the flag MAP_SYNC, but my compiler reports that no such thing exists. Now, I manually verified the header file for mmap and found out that flag's absent. My system's man page also says that mmap doesn't have any such flag, but ...
I am in the process of resizing LVM-on-LUKS, referring to these two posts as guides. I had done this once before smoothly, but I have run into a strange problem. When I run
#cryptsetup -b {blocks} resize /dev/mapper/cryptdisk
Device /dev/mapper/cryptdisk is not active.

Why in the world do texts like this post’s introduction need emojis? Is the reader not expected to know what a cup of tea may look like? I understand (but still abhor) something like “make yourself ☕” or even “make yourself a cup of ☕”, though really unclear it’s at least a bit shorter, but “make yourself a cup of tea ☕” is unnecessary, damages reading fluency and lets me believe the author reckons their readers to be idiots.
Ugh, the whole “text” goes on like that? Oh come on!
I think emoji's lighten, & are an attempt to be cute. Me having suffered a brain injury I don't mind them, they're like easy-white-space that breaks the text up... making the longer paragraphs easier to read (at least for me)
@nobody Well bionic is an LTS which has support for the most modules until 2023, disco is a short term release which has only about 6-10 months support, after that you will not get any updates anymore and need to upgrade or fresh install a newer version
so my advice would be stick with 18.04 (bionic) until next year the 20.04 version comes out which is a long therm support release
@nobody if updates annoy you I recommend a rolling release distro like Arch Linux – this one comes with an excellent wiki which makes up for every single thing the distro doesn’t deliver (like a GUI installer, or any installer at all ;P).
On Friday, half an hour before Shabbat and two days before Rosh Hashana, Stack Overflow Inc. suddenly revoked my moderator status on all sites where I had it. I found this out while handling flags, when I suddenly got notifications for Marshal and Deputy badges (which moderators are ineligible t...
I'm using Ubuntu and attempting to take a course in Yocto. I've been able to download Yocto and run the 'hello-world' test script to verify the Yocto installation.
The next step (from the instructor) is to run a script called "start.sh". When I attempt to run it as a user I get "permission den...
