  • Then you certainly shouldn’t! But if I have one icecream in my hand, I’ll much prefer go to the self-checkout instead of queuing to the register.

    One local store also has a hand-held scanner/terminal you can use while shopping. I think I could do big shopping with that as well, it’s less of a chore do it while shopping. Previously I had only seen those at wholesale stores for businesses.




  • At the end of the log you find:

    822413 connect(4, {sa_family=AF_UNIX, sun_path="/run/user/1000/gcr/ssh"}, 110) = 0
    ...
    822413 read(4, 
    

    meaning it’s trying to interact with the ssh-agent, but it (finally) doesn’t give a response.

    Use the lsof command to figure out which program is providing the agent service and try to resolve issue that way. If it’s not the OpenSSH ssh-agent, then maybe you can disable its ssh-agent functionality and use real ssh-agent in its place…

    My wild guess is that the program might be trying to interactively verify the use of the key from you, but it is not succeeding in doing that for some reason.



  • As mentioned, -v (or -vv) helps to analyze the situation.

    My theory is that you already have something providing ssh agent service, but that process is somehow stuck, and when ssh tries to connect it, it doesn’t respond to the connect, or it accepts the connection but doesn’t actually interact with ssh. Quite possibly ssh doesn’t have a timeout for interacting with ssh-agent.

    Using eval $(ssh-agent -s) starts a new ssh agent and replaces the environment variables in question with the new ones, therefore avoiding the use of the stuck process.

    If this is the actual problem here, then before running the eval, echo $SSH_AUTH_SOCK would show the path of the existing ssh agent socket. If this is the case, then you can use lsof $SSH_AUTH_SOCK to see what that process is. Quite possibly it’s provided by gnome-keyring-daemon if you’re running Gnome. As to why that process would not be working I don’t have ideas.

    Another way to analyze the problem is strace -o logfile -f ssh .. and then check out what is at the end of the logfile. If the theory applies, then it would likely be a connect call for the ssh-agent.

    A great git integration can work well in an editor. I use Magit in Emacs, which is probably as full-featured Git-client as there can be. Granted, for operations such as cherry-picking or rebasing on top of a branch or git reset I most often use the command line (but Magit for interactive rebase).

    But editor support for version management can give other benefits as well, for example visually showing which lines are different from the latest version, easy access to file history, easy access to line-based history data (blame), jumping to versions based on that data, etc.

    As I understand it vscode support for Git is so basic that it’s easy to understand why one would not see any benefits in it.


  • Yes, just mount to /mnt/videos and symlink that as needed.

    I guess there are some benefits in mounting directly to $HOME, though, such as find/fd work “as expected”, and also permissions will be limited automatically per the $HOME permissions (but those can be adjusted manually).

    For finding files I use plocate, though, so I wouldn’t get that marginal benefit from mounting below $HOME.


  • My /home is also on a separate filesystem, so in principle I don’t like to mounting data under there, because then I cannot unmount /home (e.g. for fsck purposes) unless I unmount also all the other filesystems there. I keep all my filesystems on LVM.

    So I just mount to /mnt and use symlinks.

    Exception: sshfs I often mount to home.
