KAOS = Knowledge As Our Saviour

KAOS is a way for your voice to be heard about ANY current event. We primarily use our website for this endeavour. However, we also are willing to have good conversations here, whether it's about AI, Government or international issues, We want your voice to be heard. There will be absolutely no Doxxing or CSAM allowed, regardless of location.

This is a sister account to r/KAOSnow on Reddit.

Help us get up and running, ask your questions or state your opinions, all we ask is that you are straight forward with what your opinion is about, otherwise than that, we censor nothing, except what is required by law, on our actual website, here on Lemmy I have to abide by the rules of the Instance I'm on.

ETA: Just because there is no censorship, within law, does not mean we do not have any moderation. Moderation does not mean censorship. Moderation is the process of making sure that rules are being followed as well as governmental laws.

Just want to wish everyone a safe and happy new year. If you go out partying/drinking tonight, play it safe and use a cab to get home. Cheaper all around, no tickets to pay for DUI, no insurance increases because of a car wreck and no concern of how to replace your car if you get in one and last but not least, Your family gets to keep you around a little longer if you don't drive home drunk.

Happy New Year and see y'all in 2025

Today KDE released 6.1. Now we wait for the distros to put it in their repos.

KDE 6.1 is released today, now we begin the patient wait for the distros to update their mirrors with the latest version.

Alright everyone, let’s get this party started. The title asks the question pretty well. What is the main use of your Linux install? Is it gaming, programming, just to dump windows etc…

Let’s have some fun everyone.

Hey everyone, just wanted to touch base with y’all. I’m really a little worried about our community.

As of this writing we have 295 members, but we only have 11 posts, including this one. We really need to get some quality posting going on here.

So this is what I was thinking, let’s start a mega thread of conversations around Linux in general. I would like to see what we can get going here. Also please talk to your friends that are on here and invite them to the group.

I know a lot of us, myself included, tend to just lurk until something pops up for us to interact with. I’m asking everyone here to help interact with our community. We aren’t just a help desk here, we can also have fun conversations.

Hi all, I really appreciate the number of member we have here at linuxscripts, and we have had a few posts besides my own on here.

What I would really like is for some of you to post things if you have them, and of course let others know about our existence.

You don’t have to post content to o be a member here, but please help contribute in any manner you can. I am opening the community up to more content today allowing for memes and crossposts of news surrounding Linux. If you cross post please denote that in your post so others know. I do ask that you don’t cross post unsolved help posts unless it is your own. However, if you get a solution to your problem and it’s not on here please let me know so it can be locked.

Thanks everyone.

This is a database script i made to trigger when database events trigger a database lockup.

# Make sure to change your database info and what instance of DB you are using (i.e. sqlite3, mysql, postgres etc...)
# This script will rotate for a total of 5 logs so you can compare previous errors with current one without taking unnecessary space

# There's no strict requirement to place it in the root directory of the server, but you have some options for where to put it:

# Root Directory: Placing the script in the root directory could work, but it's generally not recommended to clutter the root directory
# with scripts. It's better to create a specific directory for your application and put the script there.

# Custom Directory: Create a specific directory for your application, and place the script there. 
# For example, you could create a directory called "my_app" or "database_error_logger" and place the script in that directory.

# Scripts Directory: Some servers have a designated directory for executable scripts. 
# You might check if your server has a "scripts" directory where you can place your script.

# Regardless of the location, it's essential to consider file permissions. 
# Ensure that the script has the necessary permissions to execute. You may need to use the chmod command to set the appropriate 
# permissions, depending on your server's configuration.

# Lastly, consider setting up a virtual environment for your Python script to isolate dependencies and avoid conflicts with other 
# applications on the server. This can help ensure that the required Python libraries are installed locally for your script
# without interfering with system-wide packages.    

# This script was created by Edward Freeman and is covered under GPL V3. You can modify this script as you need
# However, you must retain this GPL V3 standard, and leave credit where credit is due to the original author.
