Other than a desktop, how are linux distros different?

Hey friends, intermediate linux user here... in my 2 years using linux I've tried at least 2 dozen distros. The most notable difference being the desktop enviroment.

What's the benifits if each branch "under the hood". I know terminal commands change slightly, but other than that are there any major differences I should know about?

Thanks for your help!

I'm Linux user , questions about cuda on Wayland.

I recently moved away from Xorg , I have a recently bought a laptop with Nvidia latest graphics card. I dont really mind with it , but I would like to use cuda computing units on my Wayland setup. O know Nvidia doesn't support Wayland ( I use swaywm doesn't support nvidia). Is there any way I can just use the graphics card for computing purpose?

targetcli saveconfig.json blank after reboot

Running Ubuntu 19.10, i go through and configure targetcli and save to saveconfig.json. Everything works as expected until i reboot. the saveconfig.json file is wiped and i have to run targetctl restore.
man page says:

saveconfig
Save the current configuration settings to a file, from which settings will be restored if the system is rebooted. By default, this will save the configuration to
/etc/rtslib-fb-target/saveconfig.json.




I've got to be missing something simple here.

Linux Certifications from home?

Are there any certifications or courses that I could do that are Linux related which would help me with my MBA apps in the fall or just overall add to my overall profile?

Got quite a bit of free time so though I’d ask you wonderful folks.

SCP Turned a folder into a file

This has been solved. Thanks guys.


I screwed up, I was about to wipe a server but needed to backup a directory. So I used scp to transfer it to a different linux box. The directory that I used in the scp command was not a directory that had been created yet on the other box, but I figured scp would just create the directory. Welp, I was wrong and now it's just a large file. Is there any possible way to recover the data or am I screwed?

What are some useful or cool (possibly obscure) Linux programs you could suggest?

For example, I found `exa`, an `ls` alternative, as well as `htop`, a `top` alternative. I am curious if there's anything that might have fallen under the radar that any of you would be willing to share that does something useful, cool, or even one that solves a very niche problem. It's totally okay if you're plugging your own program, too!

When my UCaaS startup failed a few years ago, I decided to Open Source all my work. It has been a monumental task, but I am finally getting somewhere.
