Linux Deep dive
I'm looking for a learning resource to accelerate my understanding of the inner workings of linux based operating systems. I was previously reccomended trying linux from scratch, but that was a little more involved than i have time for atm. What i would like is something that is audio like a podcast or audiobook that way i can be learning on my long commute ( which can be between 4 and 7 hours each worday)
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated

Native Linux Twitch Application Release
Afternoon all. I released a Linux Twitch application which mirrors the web interface. It's an Electron app which means "bloat". It comes in over 100MB because, well,, Electron. It should have all of the features that the web version does so it should be very familiar. This should technically work on Windows and Mac as well, however more testing is needed. Please let me know if there are any issues and open issues on Git, if you can.
Let me know your thoughts!
Just download, untar, delete tar (don't need a large file taking up space), set as executable, and run it:
* wget [https://github.com/NOVATechnocrat/TwitchElectron/releases/download/2.0/Twitch-linux-x64.tar.xz](https://github.com/NOVATechnocrat/TwitchElectron/releases/download/2.0/Twitch-linux-x64.tar.xz)
* tar xvf Twitch-linux-x64.tar.xz
* rm Twitch-linux-x64.tar.xz
* chmod +x ./Twitch-linux-x64/Twitch
* ./Twitch-linux-x64/Twitch
All in one:
wget https://github.com/NOVATechnocrat/TwitchElectron/releases/download/2.0/Twitch-linux-x64.tar.xz && tar xvf Twitch-linux-x64.tar.xz && rm Twitch-linux-x64.tar.xz && chmod +x ./Twitch-linux-x64/Twitch && ./Twitch-linux-x64/Twitch

How to view session from another terminal
Hi All,
I have a question regarding multiple logins from a same user. For my example I have a console opened up with a user on my Ubuntu minecraft server where I launch the server. The way this works is that while the server runs it shows outputs and details ( errors, who connected etc).
If I SSH with the same user I get a separate session to the server. Is there a way from my SSH session to see the same view I had on the console. In my case I just want to SSH and see the status messages of the minecraft server etc.
I included a picture to show what I mean. On the left is my console connection which has the server status messages. On the right is my SSH session which shows a clean new terminal view. My example is with minecraft but it extends to any type of program that my work this way ( outputting status to the screen)

Will minux ever make a comeback?
As far as I can tell, the minux approach of running less code in the kernel (with elevated privileges) seems like a better design decision.
Will minux (or similar) ever take off?
Or is there just too much effort already vested in linux to bother?
Or am I just missing something?

Horrendous Debian login reboot loop!
Learned an important lesson today: be VERY careful creating/editing the /etc/environment file in Debian! I lost all ability to login (both GUI and CLI). No helpful output (including logs from recovery boot); just a blank login loop. Searched for HOURS on the net trying to narrow down the issue, with no luck. Tried all the usual: fsck, disk space, shell, PAM etc. The kicker is, all I was doing was setting an LD_LIBRARY variable for Fortran! I'll never touch/edit THAT file again...

Can't turn on Bluetooth on a Lenovo IdeaPad 330 running pop-os
Bluetooth works from time to time, most of the time I tried to power it on using both the GUI and the "bluetoothctl power on" command, but when I use "bluetoothctl show" to display my controller info, it says my controller is powered off.
Sometimes when my Bluetooth actually turns on, My wifi suddenly stops working.
Any idea on how to fix this?

Why all linux ebook readers suck so much?
So recently I began to enjoy reading books just before sleep in my bed on my linux laptop (fedora 34). I'm currently reading Harry Potter series. I like to have ebook reader on right half of my screen so I can open up browser on the other half, and look up words in dictionary that I dont understand. Light in my room is very dim, so dark theme is must have, and my laptop screen is also on minimum brightness. First ebook editor that i picked up was calibre, it worked pretty well for a while, I also managed to setup VIM like key bindings so i can scroll with J, K buttons. So the issues that I have:
1. table of contents is all messed up:

2. When you encounter illustration, it's very small, so naturally you click to expand it to look at it in better detail.

When you aer done looking at it, you want to go back to reading. NO you cant, tried pressing all buttons imaginable, ESC, ENTER, SPACE, BACKSPACE and so on. Only solution is to close calibre, and open it up again. Thats ridiculous!
3. Yesterday I was reading and wanted to increase font size so i tried to press CTRL + '+' but i think i pressed something else, and application crashed, and somehow partly CORRUPTED my EPUB file. Now callibre cannot open this file anymore, i get following error:

I tried even opening this file on my other machine with calibre installed, same error. I opens up previous copy (Lucky that I was reading copy, on my laptop).

So i got pissed and started looking at the alternatives to calibre:
