Is there any application / noscript to automatically move files?

I download a lot of things (images, videos, files) from the web. I'd like to find a way to keep my downloads folder organized. A program that looks at the file type, and moves it to a selected folder, would be the perfect solution.

I've been searching in the Software Center, didn't find anythinh.

I use Manjaro with KDE desktop.

Thanks!

Kernel based User Isolation vs Container/Chroot

I have heard quite some times of breaking out of containers and chroots and fucking up cgroups and namespaces.

What I have never heard of yet is breaking out of user isolation (two separate user accounts on the same installation), it seems like its impossible to access user A files as user B if permissions have been set properly.

I want to know which one is the most secure ie least likely to have bugs and most likely to protect applications from reading files it has no permissions to read.

Multiplayer survival game Rust is offering refunds for Linux users

They're going to stop shipping the linux client as well. [Here is a good writeup about it](https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2019/08/17/rust-will-offer-refunds-as-they-stop-shipping-linux-client/) but they've pretty much said none of the developers used linux outside of developing the game client, Unity doesn't support building the anticheating software for linux, but does for Windows and OSX, etc. They knew they'd lose more money than they made off linux, but it sounds like it's become way too much of a hassle for them and they're at a crossroads.

They also gave the number of users who have played in the last 30 days by OS:

Windows 227,842
MacOS 2,414
Linux 217

But, they've gone even further and made the statement "Don't make Linux versions of any future games because we can't/won't properly support it"

A redshift noscript I wrote

I recently installed redshift (a program that changes screen color temperature). I wanted to create a custom noscript to use it.

\[Here\]([https://github.com/BigB00st/Dotfiles/blob/master/.noscripts/redshift/redshift-enable.sh](https://github.com/BigB00st/Dotfiles/blob/master/.noscripts/redshift/redshift-enable.sh)) it is.

I thought that some of you might find it useful. Feedback is appreciated.

Librem5 and pinephone

I'm bored to see how much hate there are around librem VS pinephone, this topic is about librem5 AND pinephone

Everyone should respect both project, because like it or not they are trying to do what someone else failed, so THANK YOU PURISM AND PINE64 to be brave and try to give a mobile gnu/linux experience. All haters should just shame on them because there is no win to put sh\*t on this projects, and i hope both project will succeed because they deserve it, and WE as gnu/linux community deserve to have a choice outside apple/google duopoly.

I can't ignore there are a lot more complain on librem5 than pinephone, i want to underline that purism is doing a lot of work on software, and they are upstreaming what THEY ARE DOING, for the good of the community, and for the good of pinephone too, so it's obvious the price is higher, more devs are working on software and firmware, and this company spend money to develop things that will share with entire community, and this is not an obvious choice.

So when someone write about "ridicoulus" price of librem5, just think you are not just paying for a smartphone, but you are paying to make gnu/linux mobile true.

Then buy pinephone ore librem5, buy what it feels more confortable to you and to your pocket, or buy an apple or android phone if you prefear, but please respect this project because they value a lot for people who care about freedom and diversity.

At the end, i whould like to suggest to everyone who can afford the price and who care about gni/linux to buy a librem5 because their work are upstreamed, and every money they raise is something we will get back as software code and used for pinephone too
