  • Back in the day when we used to be able to just leave our bikes anywhere around town and expect them to still be there, the one token black kid got accused by an adult I didn’t know of stealing my essentially abandoned bike that I told him he could borrow and what it looked like and where I left it. That kinda just stuck with me for the rest of my life. It also clearly stuck with some of the other kids because a bunch of them kept saying shit about Tyrone stealing my bike and that wasn’t even his name…












  • There are a few ways I can think of to do this but I’m not sure what would be the best way.

    You can just mount individual drives or partitions to the corresponding location (xdg directories or otherwise). This is what I generally do.

    I haven’t tried this but If you don’t want to partition the shared drives, you could make corresponding folders on the root of the drive (or anywhere really) and bind mount those folders to the corresponding location. For it to be persistent across reboots, a brief search says you can put it in fstab this way: /source /destination none defaults,bind 0 0 There is also rbind which I think is recursive but I haven’t read up on when to use it.

    I haven’t tried this either and forget which is which but symbolic link or hard link may or may not be viable and would also be persistent I think.


  • I’m not 100% on eu but for most wired in ZigBee devices you want 3 wires for it to be always on. 2 wire I think some people have made work anyways using a capacitor or something but that’s too sketchy for my liking. Sometimes the corresponding light recepticle has 3 wires instead, at least in one of my previous homes in Canada, and I was able to put the ZigBee switch in there instead. My current house is about half and half 2 and 3 wire and I’m just shit out of luck on those because the ceiling boxes are all 2.

    Sorry 2 or 3 plus ground which is bare here. Edit: also I think the capacitor was to prevent the 2 wire versions of the switch, which are different, from flickering
