Love jails. My server didn’t move with me to Central America, and I miss Free/TrueNAS jails
No, you’re absolutely right. That’s what happens when you have the WaaSMedic service running, which cannot be easily disabled in services.msc. I would think I had finally gone the “full-nuclear” option and broken al updates by disabling and stopping the update services (that I knew about), but they would re-enable themselves without fail.
This comment explains where you need to disable it (if you want to go that route).
I’m not sure what the purple app was.
It was a website, and after a Lemmy user reminded me of privacy.sexy, I realized it is decidedly un-purple.
Yes!!! ⭐ ⭐
And it isn’t remotely purple! Thank you for sharing!!!
Its all coming back to me now. Must’ve been repressed memories…
For the record, the service names are: UsoSvc WaaSMedicSvc wuauserv
WaaSmedic must be that watchdog that kept re-enabling update services after I disabled them years ago. I just remember my OS would start a multi hour encode or compile, and I’d come back hours later to a login screen and update history telling me it rebooted when I didn’t have automatic updates enabled.
Thx for the reply.
That is similar to the web page I was thinking of. Thx. I’ll check it out.
God bless Steve Gibson! Security Now! I used Spinrite back in 92. I’ve used his other utilities (when they were relevant), and ShieldsUP too. That man is a treasure. Thanks for the link. I know he gets it.
On second thought, while this is great, I need to block all updates in this PC.
coinciding with what would have been Trump’s 78th birthday.
If he isn’t dead, it’s still his birthday. Come to think of it, even if he’s dead.
Making me hope he died…

Unused to wonder if the radio announcers that are always reciting the station call letters found that the letters stopped sounding like individual sounds, and the whole recitation became a sort of “word” for them. Like “You’re listening to 102.9FM WBLM!” Did it stop being “double-you bee ell emm,” and turn into more of a mashup of “dubbleyabeeyelmm”?
True, the difference is pretty subtle, especially to a listener, but I wonder strange things sometimes…
Don’t tell them about insid-- dang! Too late
Not really doing a great job finding the right place for your posts. You broke three community rules posting this here; rules 1, 2 and 9. Perhaps you should try a comics community?
I’d use the find
command piped to mv
and play with some empty test folders first. I’m not familiar with Nemo, though I’ve used it for a short while. I’ve never tried the bulk renaming features if they exist.
Depending in how much variation you have in the preceding underscores, REGEX may be useful, but if its just a lot of single underscores you can easily trim them with a single version of the script.
Edit: corrected second command typo. I think there’s a rename command I haven’t used in ages that may have args to help here too, but I’m away from the PC
If you dare, you can automated it with some simple scripting. If I had more than 20 or 30, I’d probably go that route.
Yeah, that sounds like a better long-term solution for you. Once you change your workflow, you shouldn’t have to do it again anyway!
Not a fix, but a workaround I use when symbols and punctuation are treated this way: I use lowercase letters to precede folder names to get the sort I want.
aFolder1
bFolder2
Not elegant, but it works in your case. You could also try other file managers, like Thunar to see if they manage sorting differently
Now that you mention it, I think I can tell yt-dlp to give me vorbis, but it might still entail a conversion.
Yeah!
