That’s the thing though, when you install Samba it does create an empty config file at \etc\samba\smb.conf, or at least I’ve never created one

And like I said

this command didn’t really do what I wanted it to do then

I just want to do something like find {package name} | grep "config.conf" or something like that. I normally know what the program is called, I just don’t know where it is located.

Here is the entire output I get when I get that command.

Now, if I grep those commands, I get these outputs

username@server:~$ dpkg -S samba | grep "smb.conf" samba-common: /usr/share/samba/smb.conf samba-common: /usr/share/doc/samba-common/examples/smb.conf.default python3-samba: /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/samba/gp/gp_smb_conf_ext.py

username@server:~$ dpkg -L samba | grep "smb.conf" username@server:~$

And these are copy and pasted straight from my terminal.

Oh I see, this command didn’t really do what I wanted it to do then. I just wanted to be able to see the locations of any files associated with a program. If I knew the file path I could just find them haha

No error or anything, but it just doesn’t have the /etc/samba/smb.conf file. Just doesn’t have it.

dpkg -S samba does find /usr/share/samba/smb.conf which isn’t the right file either.

I just tried this with Samba (so dpkg -L samba and dpkg -S samba, and I also tried adding grep "smb.conf" and running it with sudo) and I was unable to find the share config file.

It’s located under /etc/samba/smb.conf but that command was returning a path under my local user. This is on Ubuntu

don’t let them catch you, you WILL lose your job

Hey director of IT for a trucking company here, i just want to reiterate this part!

Don’t fucking do this. Any of this advice. You WILL lose your job and we WILL blacklist you from the industry for this shit. Maybe if you drivers could actually mange your fucking log books and follow the safety regulations we wouldn’t need to have ELDs and camera and GPS and fucking canbus monitoring and annual inspections and all of the other “”“invasive nonsense”“” the government requires.

I dont want it either. Its all crazy expensive, annoying to manage, and I have to constantly deal with drivers complaining about it.

Sorry. I’m a little upset with this issue because its a constant issue i have at work. But no there is nothing you can do besides just get another job.

I just want to reiterate it again. Do NOT mess with the equipment your company has in your truck. At best you’ll just get fired but I’ve seen my company respond with legal measures in the past.

Big facts

Motorbikes are considered cool cause they’re fun as fuck to ride

The only time I get Starbucks is when I am in a new city and busy, like for work. Since it is a chain I can know that I will get the exact same thing in the exact same quality essentially anywhere in the country.

To me it’s a really nice safety net if im stressed or anxious and far from home and my local coffee shops.

Yeah, but it’s really hot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

(I do not have the most responsible taste in women haha)

I (straight male) think a woman smoking a cigarette is really really hot. Like it turns me feral when I see it.

I have to constantly remind myself that is just marketing from cigarette companies haha

This is the only one that I haven’t been able to drop from growing up in the early 2000s. I’m good about not saying it in public, but if it’s just the boys playing games or something all bets are off haha

Some “”“people”“” here in the Midwest call them cheese toasty

I’m curious on how you reconcile the “towns not much larger than 700 people” and the advanced automation you have in your world.

Drones, computers, or any of the 15 layers you need to support any “network” need significantly more people than groups of 700 to manufacture.

That’s just how the game is. It’s incredibly simplified. Every issue has a decision for you to make and that decision only impacts 2-4 things. Usually 1-2 positives, and 1-2 negatives.

It’s a really fun little game but it shouldn’t be used as a replacement for actual policy.

I really miss party shuffle. I swear it used to have a feature where other people could add songs to your party shuffle too?

That’s one feature I wish would come back to streaming services

What’s up with audacity? I use it like twice a year so I just download it whenever I need and uninstall it. I don’t really do anything except some incredibly basic things (like record audio, cut segments out, maybe some noise reduction if I’m feeling fancy)

Yeah, in markdown the \ basically means “stop formatting”. It’s nice for more complicated things like math problems but if you don’t know it can be annoying.

The resolution thing is actually almost solved IMO. I used my Quest 3 in AR mode almost every single day and the screens are perfectly fine for reading text or having a video on in the background.

Yeah there’s still some screen door effect but it’s really only noticeable when I look for it, it disappears in normal use.

And I genuinely can’t think of a reason you would need 1000hz displays. Human eyes start to get steady motion at like 50-60 and 90-150 is when the normal eye starts to hit the limit.
