Encrypting home is good (although full disk encryption is better and with mint it's still easy enough)
Mint uses some helper scripts to mount/unmount your encfs, so maybe while trying to delete the files you deleted those too, and this would explain the login failing. It's been a while tho so I'm not sure, better to wait for someone else.
Oh yeah i figured there were some tools able to do that, i meant to say that you can't substitute one with the other in place without doing some sort of conversion.
sorry for the late reply. I honestly do not remember what the procedure is. The best thing you can do is look on the internet for a easy to follow guide, or wait for someone else's response
I might be a robot, I don't know why but i can't solve the captcha lol
I'd love to give this a try tho so maybe I'll come back later
Just a random idea, but would you consider using anubis instead? (That new thingy that has been popping up lately, for example on the archwiki). I haven't checked it out but I bet it's also better on a privacy standpoint in respect to google's captcha
I meant to ask what is the difference between, i.e., sed '/myregex/ s/from/to/ p' and sed '/myregex/ s/from/to/ ; p', but while testing to explain what i meant I answered myself, and in the process I also understood what addresses are ehe
Right, awk is a proper programming language, right? that'll be for another day...
This weired me out until I read the explanation. I'm so used to the slashes lol
In the end I've used the first command you wrote, because KISS, but I appreciate your explanation
Check the sed man page for more details
Yes that's been my only source so far, but to be honest it's really cryptic. it might just be that I'm used to syscalls man pages (also sed is kinda complex it can't be easy to write a single man page for it)
Forgot to clarify, that was reverse engeneered code from the train firmware (i don't remember what it was trying to do)
