NFS export troubles
After doing some reorganisation of disks and replacements of data I had quite some trouble with NFS
Since my desktop is very much intertwined with my servers, it would no longer start.
I've been searching and checking all kind of things for at least an hour when it suddenly became clear I forgot to adjust the /etc/exports file on one of the servers that still had a no longer existing mountpoint in it.
Removed it, did an "exportfs -a" and saw the light again.
I had no idea NFS could crash on this.

Share wifi like in Windows - Linux Wifi Hotspot
In Linux, One problem I faced is sharing wifi (Create hotspot) while connected to a wifi network (with same interface) . In windows, we can share the internet from wifi network that we have connected. But in most Linux desktop environments, we cannot share internet like that even though we can create a hotspot. I meant by simple GUI, not with command line utiles. However, I found a great open source command line until called **create\_ap.** I made a GUI program using Gtk based on that project with some improvements. You can build the software yourself and install it. Here is the [project](https://github.com/lakinduakash/linux-wifi-hotspot). If you found a bug or need improvements add an issue on GitHub. And if you find it interesting don't forget to **star** it.

What's the status of LXDE and LXQT?
All right, for some background information, there's a bit of confusion around the Lubuntu circles as well as the LXQT scene in general, as the websites for LXQT and LXDE both have been down a week now. Lubuntu is about to release its first LTS version featuring the LXQT environment in place of LXDE, and at the same time there's been a quiet atmosphere because LXQT has slowed down its development. I want the DE to succeed but it looks like something is going on in the background.

Keyboard backlight service
I've created a simple application which turns off the backlight of the keyboard when it is not in use. I'ts designed for thinkpads but probably will work with other devices too.

Just got a punch in the stomach from this interviewer
Sorry guys, maybe this is not the right place but I'd to share this particular moment of my day and seek advise.
I had this interview with this company that provides consultancy in Agile, DevOps, CI/CD, Cloud Adoption, Modern Application Development, Application Modernization, Next Generation IT Operations and Site Reliability Engineering and much more.
He asked me what I know and I am currently doing: I have a Service Desk job and really want to move forward, follow my passion and come back to UNIX world. I just started this Linux and Git Specialization course via Cousera and will try RHCSA afterwards (I already have a Redhat background). He answered this type of job is obsolete. Linux System Administrator tends to disappear.
I mean, I took a look at his CV and wow he probably knows what he is talking about. Anyway, I just wanted to share my frustration.
Have a great day everyone and keep safe.

Automate Installation of Flatpak applications and Permissions
[https://github.com/jeteokeeffe/flatpak-sync](https://github.com/jeteokeeffe/flatpak-sync)
flatpak-sync is a simple cli application written in python 3 that installs flatpak repositories, applications and permissions from a file. You can generate that file with single command with the proper repositories, applications and custom permissions per flatpak application. So if you distro hop and use flatpak applications as part of your workflow, you can save sometime with new setups.
I also recommend using FlatSeal (GUI for tweaking flatpak permissions) and chezmoi for storing dotfiles with git.

I Decided to Design a Linux Inspired Denim Jacket
Hi, it's my first time posting on this subreddit. For my Linux class, we had to do a project surrounding Linux (it could literally be anything). I decided to buy a denim jacket a create a design on the back surrounding Linux. I decided to implement a lot of the logos and use SuperTuxKart as a basis for the design.
[This is my concept art for the jacket](https://preview.redd.it/92s7evki8hu41.jpg?width=2550&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=00ad30bc96f51043b598b3f61c926df6669d2b33)
I thought it would be a cooler idea to build a concept around these elements rather than just paint a bunch of Linux related things. After more than 10 hours of prepping and painting, this is the final result:

But yeah, I worked really hard on it and wanted to show off what I've done to the community. I hope you guys like it!
