While migrating to librewolf, I wanted a way to keep my searx settings so here’s the urls so that for future referencesearx.be searx.org
had to reuse this guide because I borked my container tabs
Had a issue when setting up Firefox container tabs where my local accidentally overwrote my remote. Fortunately, I had a computer that was 1 version behind.
This was a good guide to overwrite the remote firefox sync with the local

More steam deck debugging
This originally started as a post here, but I realized the tangent about resetting my sudo password wasn’t as important
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CN6HT6JZ?language=en-US
in terms of setup, this guide + script was sup…
Though before I could set the controllers on my steam deck, I actually forgot my sudo password (I set it a long time ago).
I intially tried this guide, but I ran into a errorhttps://old.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/x4ho0g/made_a_password_for_kde_completely_forgot_it_cant/imvfce4/
First, follow the directions on the Steam Deck Recovery Page to create a recovery media and boot from it. You will need a USB key and a USB-C hub for your deck; I highly recommend having a USB keyboard and mouse as well.
In the recovery environment, open “Terminal with repair tools”. This will open a terminal window.
You can then reset your password with the following commands:
sudo ~/tools/repair_device.sh chroot
rm -f /var/lib/overlays/etc/upper/passwd
rm -f /var/lib/overlays/etc/upper/shadow
Reboot, and then you’ll be able to set your own password again using passwd or the GUI.
This essentially allows you to remove the passwd and shadow overlay, reverting both files to their default version off the root/system partition. By default, the deck user has no password.
The first command uses SteamOS’s scripts to mount the root and var partitions, and creates a subshell where the mounted root partition point is /.
The next two removes the overlay files.
I ran into the samesteamos-chroot' '--disk' '/dev/nvme0n1' '--partset' 'B' /usr/bin/steamos-chroot: line 206: /run/lock//dev/nvme0n1-B.flock: No such file or directoryhttps://old.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/x4ho0g/made_a_password_for_kde_completely_forgot_it_cant/kwl2suk/
I’ve successfully made the bootable USB drive and booted to it, then run “Terminal with repair tools”. After running the first command listed here, I get the following error:
Does anyone know what could be happening and how I can fix it?
The solution to that was actually to not use the recovery manager, but rather modify the grub boot settings.
The creator actually had the instructions also written too
If you have forgotten the sudo password for the Steam Deck then don’t worry I will teach you how to reset the forgotten sudo password the quick and easy way!
This are the steps on how to reset a forgotten sudo password. You will need a keyboard attached to the Steam Deck to enter the commands easily -
While the Steam Deck is powered off, hold the 3dots (QAM) and turn on the Steam Deck.
The recovery menu will appear. On your keyboard highlight the 3rd option - CURRENT (OS Boot Menu) then press enter.
The GRUB menu will appear. Highlight the 1st option - SteamOS then on your keyboard press “e” to edit the boot options.
Press down cursor on the keyboard until steamenv_boot is highlighted. Press “end” to go to the end of the line.
Enter the command -
Press CTRL-X to boot!
Once SteamOS loads, press CTL-ALT-F9 on the keyboard to access the root debug shell.
Enter the command -
Enter new password and retype the new password.
Once done, press CTL-ALT-F1 on the keyboard to go back to game mode.
sudo password has been reset! You can now boot to desktop mode and use sudo commands using the new password!

It’s times like these where I’m glad I forced myself to daily drive linux on my main computer. All the times where things broke and I needed to look up how to fix it using exclusively the command line really helped build my resilience.
Will update every so often
Started using Arch a year after windows 10 launched.
Early August Initially upgraded my old Lenovo B575 to windows 10 to see the new OS, was pretty disappointed with the performance of OS on old hardware.

Concluding thoughts
I believe this video can set the right theme for the conclusion <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSIlR2q9SYM" rel="nofollow noopener">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSIlR2q9SYM</a>
I think as Large Language Models get fine tuned for coding/CLI tasks such as open hermes
It won’t people from copy pasting commands and running them (I’m guilty of that), but it will make it easier to interpret commands and scripts before running them.

more firefox debugging, a draft of a guide coming soon
so turns out I forgot that signing out and in != disconnecting. Also mozilla devs must have moved the disconnect button.
Unfortunately I was signed out, so I couldn’t change the settings. The solution was to back up my local config, sign in, uncheck sync settings or addons from the sync, revert back to my backup, sign in again,

Added a new section to the guide when I encountered this same issue
This started off as a post here, but during the process of writing a draft, it evolved into a dedicated post.
I was thinking of Nick Robinson’s documentaries while drafting the post. The feeling of finding it felt like when Nick found the Michaelsoft Binbows
The nostalgia was similar to the part where Nick was describing the situation
