I'm looking for some kind of File Drop / File Upload service.
I'd like to be able to create a folder, and create a share / upload link for that folder that I can give to a customer to use to upload their documents.
I've been using nextcloud but I don't use nextcloud for any other purpose and it's a behemoth so I'd like to transition to something else.
Some of these requirements are essential (!):
no login for customers uploading (!)
optional password protection for uploads
can't see / download files already present in the shared folder

A United Nations fact-finding mission confirmed that recent Israeli airstrikes in Tehran struck critical civilian infrastructure, including a children’s autism clinic. It noted that the attacks on medical facilities placed vulnerable patients and pediatric services directly in danger.
[T]he Zionist regime has launched a war on Iran’s civilian life. Homes, clinics, and playgrounds have been targeted.
Israeli military aggression against Iran has claimed a number of innocent lives since June 13, including those of children, killed in homes and playgrounds.

Microsoft surprises MS-DOS fans with remake of ancient text editor that works on Linux
“Last month, Microsoft released a modern remake of its classic MS-DOS Editor, bringing back a piece of computing history that first appeared in MS-DOS 5.0 back in 1991. The new open source tool, built with Rust and simply called “Edit,” works on Windows, macOS, and—in a twist that would have seemed unlikely three decades ago—Linux.”
Yes, not only is it open source, but it also has a Linux binary file in its release. It feels a bit like the whole world just turned upside down.
The interesting part though is that text editing has not really changed that much. The features may have, but it is still plain old ASCII text, so this editor can still work fine over 30 years later.
The linked article has, near the end of the article, a link to the GitHub project site, as well as for a Linux Snap package.
@ChristiJunior The Iranians may or may not have broken the ceasefire. I can't be sure because nobody seems to know exactly when the ceasefire is supposed to start. Either way I don't think it'll hold.
@Bunsen @ChristiJunior I was surprised when the ceasefire was announced, because I thought they were in too deep to pull a ceasefire. I guess I was right initially.
@Bunsen @ChristiJunior I don't know when a ceasefire is technically supposed to have started, but both parties have structured their military actions so as to not deviate meaningfully from the same old back-and-forth that's been going on the past week. I also don't expect one to start given that Iran just launched a missile into an apartment building, killing 3 people.
@lord_nougat They already ignored that deadline lol. They seem to have stopped the missile barrages just in time for Trump's deadline. I expect Israel to retaliate for their most recent strikes next, before both sides claim the other is the one who technically violated the ceasefire whose terms no one seems to agree on.
In addition to all of the corruption and waste that must be dealt with to turn the ship of state around from a permanent war footing, the economy itself must be turned.
War was and is hugely profitable. Ordinary business contracts are in the hundreds of billions even before you get to the layers of corruption.
Now, having demonstrated his intent to possess the mightiest military on earth, and having demonstrated his willingness to use such power boldly, effectively, and morally, I predict he’s going to swiftly turn to deal making.
The two primary goals of Trump’s political career are peace and prosperity.
@Lori There are new hoses with a metal casing inside, but I don't if they stretch. As long as the hose is light, it doesn't have to stretch. But I really like stretch ones.

Lots of people are saying the bombing doesn't matter because Iran moved the Uranium. Maybe we know where it went and someone will bomb that too, maybe we will find out later.
Either way, they won't make more. And if it wasn't weapons grade at the time of the move, it won't be going forward.

@Max Powers @TJ of the Side-Eye @Richard We all know the bunker-busters were only designed to go 60 feet into the ground and the Fordo nuclear site was 1600 feet under ground, and we attacked only one of five entrances and a ventilation shaft. Sure the shock waves will do some damage but I'm sure they designed the site with that in mind and have baffled entrances and such to dissipate the shock wave. Even the deepest nuclear crater was only 320 feet deep so even a nuke would not have destroyed it.

It's kind of buggy where I'll enter characters but they won't register. I can verify this because when booting, sometimes my num and caps lock keys will have a delay after pressing before their light changes.
This is very annoying when trying to unlock the computer, because I essentially have to wait an arbitrary amount of time before I think inputs will register properly. This wouldn't be as much of an issue if I could, you know, get some feedback that they keys I'm entering are actually being entered.
Is there a way to change this to suit my needs better?
I changed my mkinitcpio hook from the busybox initencrypt to systemd init sd-encrypt to help with this, as it presents a different way to unlock a LUKS partition. Your mileage may vary since im not sure which OS you're on.

Alastair Crooke- Trump sided with the Israelis, asserting that Iran was ‘very close’ to having a bomb, and added that he didn’t care what Gabbard thinks.
Israel isn’t a country, it’s a genocidal, apartheid regime. Palestine is the name of the country. This regime is waging war against Iran while millions of Palestinians are caught in the middle unable to defend themselves.
My biggest fear would be for Iran to own and be able to use and deploy a #nuclear #weapon, and to be a stranglehold on #Israel, on the whole region and other parts of the world. And that is why NATO has said Iran should not – and this is a consistent position of NATO – Iran should not have its hands on a nuclear weapon. So, and I would not agree that this is against international law what the US did.
I wish people would back up their statements with arguments. In my opinion, the US attack clearly violates international law. Here are my arguments:
1) An attack is only possible for self-defense and even Israel says it could take months to build the bomb. So there can be no question of self-defense. 2) There were negotiations and even if they were difficult, that is no reason for an attack. 3) North Korea also has nuclear weapons and has not used them to date. The ownership of nuclear weapons alone does not make a country a source of evil danger. 4) Israel also bombs scientists who are not #military targets.
Israel "secretly" has nuclear weapons and is in violation of several of those "international laws". Israel is without a doubt the most destabilizing entity in the Middle East threatning, invading, occupying it's neighbours. Israel is an apartheid ethnosupremacist state conducting a genocide since it's unlawful inception was brutally forced upon the peoples living in Palestine.
If the threat is not required to be real then any country on earth can be considered a threat as they are going to eventually get a bomb. Israel on the other hand already has a bomb so they actually are a current threat given that they have also stated their wish to destroy Iran, Palestine and anyone who says anything remotely bad about them or their terrorist activities.
There were not negotiations as the talks were at the point of a gun. That is the exact opposite of negotiation as proven by the bombs that were dropped to force an outcome. Negotiation can only be by open discussion and agreement. Would an armed robber be able to say in defence that he negotiated your wallet when he pointed his gun at your face or shot you son?
North Korea may have weapons but that is not in any way relevant as Iran not only does not have nuclear weapons and totally lacks any weapons programme to obtain them.
The opinion of NATO, a beligerant, is not relevant in finding peace. Iran is a member of BRICS which has no military and whose opinion would be far more relevant. The countries of NATO are becoming less and less relevant. I am not a supporter of Brazil, Russia, India, China or South Africa but they are becoming more and more relevant as the west supports more and more mass murder.

Some years ago, when cryptocurrencies weren’t talked about as much, we were considering announcing a parody cryptocurrency for April’s Fools. It would be called ThinkCoin, and the joke was that all the value associated with it was in the mind of the user, with no software to back it in the real world.
This was ridiculous, of course, playing on the idea that actual cryptocurrencies have no actual value either. This should tell you that we never thought seriously about entering that space. These days, however, with the incredible hype and attention that cryptocurrencies, and more recently NFTs, are currently getting, we couldn’t even go for such a joke, for fear that it would be taken seriously.
Since the discussion around cryptocurrencies has reached such an extreme, I think it is high time to clarify Vivaldi’s position.
Cryptocurrency – is it a revolution?
Cryptocurrency has been touted by many as a revolution in currency, the future of investment, and a breakthrough technology. But if you look beyond the hype, you’ll find nothing more than a pyramid scheme posing as currency.
It’s basically a digital commodity, though one without government backing or banking system support. Claiming to be the new digital currency of the internet, cryptocurrencies promise decentralization and freedom from governments.
Each cryptocurrency typically follows a certain recipe to ensure that the founders create a lot of wealth, a way to distribute the currency to give it legitimacy, and some story on how it is different from all the others.
But since cryptocurrencies are too volatile to be used as an actual currency, people treat it as a sort of investment scheme. The problem is that to extract actual money from the system you have to find someone willing to buy the tokens you are holding. And this is only likely to happen as long as they believe they will be able to sell them on to someone who’ll pay even more for them. And so on, and so on.
If at any point one stops being able to find people willing to buy those tokens on just the promise of them being worth more in the future, the whole scheme might well come crashing down, with the value of all tokens going to zero.
An environmental disaster
The energy consumption of cryptocurrency is another major concern. The energy usage of bitcoin alone is staggering, consuming as much electricity as some countries. And this is likely to keep increasing as the technology behind it does not and cannot scale in any reasonable way.
For obvious reasons, that sort of energy consumption isn’t good for the environment as the energy could clearly be spent better somewhere else. This is also true if it’s renewable energy since it could instead be used to displace fossil fuels in other applications.
While so many of us are trying our best to reduce our carbon footprints, it feels counterproductive to indulge in technology that undoes that hard work.
The entire crypto fantasy is designed to lure you into a system that is extremely inefficient, consumes vast amounts of energy, uses large amounts of hardware that could better be spent doing something else and will quite often result in the average person losing any money they might put into it.
Jon von Tetzchner
Where we stand
At the time of writing (January 2022), there are over 8,000 cryptocurrencies in existence. Compare this to the 180 actual currencies worldwide that can be used as legal tender.
The most baffling part of this cryptocurrency craze is that it’s still unclear if there is any viable use case or a meaningful way to value it. Without this, it is reduced to merely an overcomplicated slot machine for those with money to burn.
Yet, despite all the negatives, there will still be those who opt to participate. And for those who end up owning some crypto tokens that they’ll need to manage, the browser might seem a logical place to keep track of it all. Indeed, some of our competitors have done just that and now provide crypto-wallets in the browser.
Since Vivaldi is all about offering choices and customizability, you might expect us to include this functionality, as well. But in good conscience, we cannot.
The entire crypto fantasy is designed to lure you into a system that is extremely inefficient, consumes vast amounts of energy, uses large amounts of hardware that could better be spent doing something else and will quite often result in the average person losing any money they might put into it.
When you strip away the hype, these virtual currencies have very real repercussions for people, society, and the environment. By creating our own cryptocurrency or supporting cryptocurrency-related features in the browser, we would be helping our users to participate in what is at best a gamble and at worst a scam. It would be unethical, plain and simple.
We refuse to dress these scams up as opportunities. Instead, we encourage you to treat them with the skepticism they deserve. This may be a game for some curious crypto-investors and wealthy speculators, but for those unlucky enough to get caught out by the pyramid scheme, it could be devastating.
It’s just not worth it.

Not that I don't still love using linux daily, but it is getting a little old having to search for how to do anything even just install a simple program (recently, had a. Deb file to install unifi software that wouldn't install and had to find a custom script to do it).
I feel like there's no way I'd ever learn all the random commands I've been copying and pasting (and keeping in a text file for later) and can't help but feel it's kind of clunky. And I don't feel like I really know anything of what Im doing. Even man pages baffle me. I've been into computing for 20 years but only used linux a little like 8 years ago, but now it's been my main os on my desktops for probably 2 months. I know, maybe that's just not long enough. I just don't like the fact that if I couldn't search, I'd be completely stuck on a lot of tasks.
A good start is to install tldr. You use it like man, but it gives you shorter explanations – or rather, a short list of illustrative examples.
As for man pages themselves (which I often find overwhelming, too), if you're not doing that already, you can pipe it into grep to extract just those lines that contain your search string:
man ps | grep user
# or for two lines of context above and below each match:
man ps | grep user -C 2
Going further, check out Fish instead of Bash. I haven't use Fish yet, but it's said to be much better for learning Linux commands as a beginner. Later on, you may switch to Zsh. In any case, hitting Tab once or twice will often give you a list of possible completions to the command you are typing.
PS: I see no good reason why anyone should downvote this question.
Edit: As it so happens, just today I've stumbled into the O'Reilly book "Classic Shell Scripting" by Robbins and Beebe (ISBN 9780596005955). What can I say – its age notwithstanding, it's apparently an extremely good book for understanding things and learning how to solve real problems. (It presupposes some familiarity with Unix-like systems and with the shell, so if one's just starting out, the book "Learning the Unix Operating System" may be better.)

Rescuers Attempt to Save Tourist Trapped In Active #Volcano » Explorersweb
Rescuers are still trying to reach a Brazilian tourist who fell into the crater of #Indonesia’s 3,726m Mt. Rinjani on Saturday. Juliana Marins, 26, rose before dawn to hike around the rim of the country’s second-largest volcano with a small guided group. But in the early-morning fog, she slipped over the edge of the trail and fell down a cliff into the crater.
Drone footage captured over the previous three days shows her alive and conscious, but rescuers have been unable to reach her.
However, when rescuers descended to that point, they were unable to find her. They called out but received no response and were forced to climb back up to the rim. On Sunday, more drone footage confirmed that she was no longer in her original location.
On Monday morning, authorities found Marins again, even further down the slope. It appears that at some point on Saturday, she slid further down the cliff from where she was perched. Rescuers attempted to reach her again, but stopped a little under halfway down. They were reportedly able to send food and water down to her before retreating.
Everyone involved made a whole bunch of mistakes: The local guide who wasn't anywhere near her when she fell. Whoever never advised her to take her own backpack with at least a few things in it that might have kept her alive. (She had nothing with her at all.) (and though this can't fairly be criticized:) Mistakes which she very probably made through her own inexperience when she was in her original safe position 1000 ft down (see the photo above).
If she'd barely moved a muscle and stayed exactly there, maybe very carefully, inch by inch, digging herself a kind of bucket seat, they'd have reached her the next day and she'd only have had to make it through one bad night.
We'll never know, but I'm guessing she panicked, tried to climb out on her own or change her position, and then fell far further, likely injuring herself badly. There are quite a few signs that the Indonesian rescuers weren't very expert or experienced. Americans, Europeans or Russians would have got her out well within 24 hours. If I'd been i/c the rescue effort, I'd have commandeered a military sea rescue helicopter with a 2000 ft steel cable and winch, and trained operators who could pull anyone out of anything. Nothing like that ever happened. Deaths occur in adventure sports all the time. But the very worst kind are when someone is clearly alive and yelling for help, but for one reason or another just can't be reached or helped in any way. "

⭕️ Overall developments in Gaza today according to Al-Youm News: "53 Palestinians martyred in ongoing Israeli airstrikes on Gaza since dawn on Monday, 23 June, including 24 who were waiting for humanitarian aid."
○ Southern Gaza:
– 11 killed by Israeli army fire at aid distribution centers west of Rafah.
– 7 bodies recovered from various areas east of Khan Yunis.
– 4 killed in an Israeli strike on a tent sheltering displaced Palestinians in Mawasi al-Qarara.
– 2 passed away from injuries sustained in a previous strike on Khan Yunis.
China, Indonesia, and South Korea warn of global fallout after US strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, urging restraint and diplomatic resolution amid rising tensions.
Today, even that pretence is gone. In Gaza, and now with the strikes on Iran, the gloves are fully off. What we’re witnessing is a regression to a kind of global lawlessness — a “might makes right” free-for-all where nothing is off limits: not the mass slaughter of civilians, not the bombing of nuclear sites, not even the complete sidelining of international institutions. And all of this is happening in the nuclear age — a reality that brings us to the next point.
We have now entered a new phase of Western-led global savagery — prefigured by the genocide in Gaza — in which all pretences have been dropped and only the logic of raw, unrestrained violence remains
