Check two conditions in bash ? [solved]


Hi,

I trying to test two condition together (AND) under bash but it's not working...

The goal is ti have True when two variables are either not set or empty (empty string)

I've tried

if [[ -n VARIABLE1 && -n VARIABLE2 ]]; then
    echo "OK"
fi

Here I get the "OK" no matter what .

Thanks.

Thank you all for yours input

What finally did work

if [[ -z VARIABLE1 && -z VARIABLE2 ]]; then
    echo "OK"
fi

If only Linux was using Python syntax that would be so much more intuitive...

Linux does use Python syntax... in Python.

In Bash though, it uses Bash syntax.

in reply to Rick_C137

The variables need a dollar sign: $VARIABLE1

help test shows what -n and -z do.

in reply to Rick_C137

You're probably wanting [ -z "${VAR1}" -a -z "${VAR2}" ]. Note in bash that there are minor differences in how [ ] and [[ ]] tests are handled. You can pull up a handy cheat sheet of the operands on most distros by running man test, though you'll need to read through the CONDITIONAL EXPRESSIONS section of man bash if you want to see the minor differences of the single vs double square bracket commands (mostly whether locale applies to string order, as well as whether operands are evaluated in numeric comparisons).


Kmart Australia Illegally Used Mass-Facial Recognition in Stores


Over the two years until July 2022, Kmart captured the facial data of "tens or hundreds of thousands" of customers at store entrances and return counters

[...] after a three-year investigation, privacy commissioner Carly Kind found Kmart's use of FRT was disproportionate, and the company did not gain consent to use it on shoppers

As part of the finding, Kmart has been ordered not to repeat the practice in the future, and will have to publish a statement on its website within 30 days explaining its use of FRT and the regulator's finding against it


TL;DR: As usual for this sort of thing, Kmart faces no real consequences (not even a fine ffs!). Meanwhile the Australian government is pushing forward with its mandatory age verification laws in spite of (or because of..) huge public backlash. I hate this country

in reply to freedickpics

  • Has privacy laws
  • Enforces privacy laws

Good for Australia!

in reply to ki9

Enforces privacy laws


I mean, there didn't seem to be any consequences. No fines or anything like that. They were basically told that they can't use facial recognition for what they were using it for, but there are others ways they could still use it (outlined in the article).

They were given a free-pass, it seems.



Donations for Turning Point USA pour in after founder Charlie Kirk’s death


Fundraising efforts ramp up to open new chapters of influential far-right group as Kirk’s widow takes over as CEO

The powerful fundraising operation that rightwing activist Charlie Kirk led to build the influential college group Turning Point USA (TPUSA) is receiving a wave of support from large donors and Donald Trump allies since his murder, which suggests the group will remain a major force on the American right, campaign finance experts and consultants say.

New backing and appeals for help to sustain TPUSA have come from, among others, Lynn Friess, the widow of mega-donor Foster Friess, who was Kirk’s first major backer when he formed his campus-focused Republican group in 2012 at the age of 18. Friess pledged $1m to TPUSA days after the 31-year-old’s killing.

In an email to friends and allies on the right, Friess wrote on 14 September that her donation was to support a surge in “new TPUSA chapters springing up across the country … helping this incredible movement grow even stronger”.

Russia’s war against Ukraine

3 Russian Mi-8 helicopters, radar station destroyed in occupied Crimea, Ukraine’s HUR says. “The Russian invaders’ air fleet in the temporarily occupied Crimea has been reduced again as a result of successful combat operations,” Ukraine’s military intelligence (HUR) said.

Ukrainian drones strike resort in occupied Crimea near Russian state dachas, Kremlin proxy says. A source reportedly told the Crimean Wind Telegram channel that “very important guests” were staying at the Foros resort at the time of the attack. The Kyiv Independent could not verify these claims.

Ukraine destroys Russian ‘terminator on tracks’ engineering vehicle in rare strike, military says. The rare strike marks only the third visually confirmed destruction of such a vehicle since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion.

Ukraine has a massive new sea drone, could threaten Russia’s Crimean Bridge. Although the platform had been known for about a year, it was only now publicly displayed.

Ukraine to begin exporting naval drones, other weapons, Zelensky says. Kyiv has drawn up proposals for a “controlled export” of Ukrainian weapons, particularly sea drones, President Volodymyr Zelensky said in his evening address on Sept. 21.

Russia’s ‘good-for-nothing’ general reportedly dismissed after Ukraine blunders. Russian Colonel General Alexander Lapin has been associated with battlefield setbacks since 2022.

More than 15,000 mobilized Russian soldiers killed in Ukraine identified by media investigation. The analysis shows that 42% of these deaths occurred within the first year after President Vladimir Putin announced Russia’s month-long “partial mobilization” in September 2022.

High-stakes autumn for Ukraine | Ukraine This Week

International response


NATO was ready to ‘use force’ against Russia, Estonia says after airspace incursion. “We saw on Friday that NATO is functioning very efficiently… even to the point that if we were truly forced to use the last resort, which is the use of force, then there was a readiness for that as well,” Estonian Defense Minister Hanno Pevkur said.

NATO jets intercept Russian spy plane over Baltic Sea, Germany says. The aircraft, an Il-20M, departed from Russia and entered international airspace without establishing communication, making visual identification the only way to confirm its presence.

UN Security Council to meet over Russian fighter jets violating Estonian airspace. This marks the first time in over 30 years that Estonia has requested an emergency meeting of the Security Council.

Trump vows to help defend Poland, Baltic countries if Russian escalations continue. U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sept. 21 he would help defend Poland and the Baltic nations if Russia continues to escalate.

Trump reiterates call for European allies to stop buying Russian oil. Trump again urged European countries to stop importing oil from Russia, during a dinner in Mount Vernon, Virginia, Bloomberg reported on Sept. 21.

Opinions and insights


Tragedy, unity, and defiance in Kyiv

“Cultural and social revival is strong in wartime Ukraine as an act of resistance against Russian efforts at erasure. Ukrainians are proudly, defiantly celebrating their own cultural diversity and history, including their own path of truth and reconciliation on the more challenging episodes of their national story,” Canadian Ambassador to Ukraine Natalka Cmoc writes.

As an answer to most european state's recent recognition of Palestine : gov.il/en/pages/spoke-pm210925

There will be no Palestinian state. The response to the latest attempt to force upon us a terror state in the heart of our land will be given after my return from the United States
I have a clear message to those leaders who are recognizing a Palestinian state after the horrendous October 7 massacre: You are rewarding terror with an enormous prize.
And I have another message for you : it's not going to happen. There will be no Palestinian state to the west of the Jordan River.
For years I have prevented the creation of that terror state, against tremendous pressure, both domestic and from abroad.
We have done this with determination, and with astute statesmanship. Moreover, we have doubled the Jewish settlement in Judea and Samaria, and we will continue on this path.
The response to the latest attempt to force upon us a terror state in the heart of our land will be given after my return from the United States. Stand by.


Just in case it wasn’t clear enough. May he change his mind one day.

"From the river to the sea" only being a hate crime when it's directed at israelis.
In case some people here would be sensible to the argument of allowing a "terror state" inside your borders, the french president and others explicitly mentioned a demilitarized Palestine, implying that such state would chase down any palestinian aiming to take revenge against Israel, and continue to collaborate with Israel in doing so.
It's assumed that the support of anti-zionist states like Iran will also progressively fade with the decades if palestinians are happy. It'd only be a tiny bit of diversity in the Middle-East, their refusal would be understandable though since it's a clear unilateral loss(, also a symbolic loss if you interpret it in a weird way, like thinking that islam's victory isn't complete as long as christians and jews haven't converted), even if i hope that they'll eventually change their mind as well. No doubt that jewish states could be friends with muslims states and complement/teach each other(, e.g., jewish traditions guard against literalism, christian literalism insist on miracles, while muslim literalism insist on decontextualization, since the most glorious Prophet had to restrict the laws because of humanity's imperfections that wouldn't have accepted the final form, such as the total abolition of slavery for non-muslims as well, or some events where the law changed because they were asking too much from followers, such as drinking in moderation or temporarily staying aways from their wives, the spirit of the law may also sometimes seem too uncertain to seek so the letter is put forward, kinda thinking that the Quran would have been the exact same if it was revealed in 2025, the Best doesn't move). Museums/'Historical theme parks' aren't useless, Israel could be one.

[Solved] Seeking help with Fedora 42 KDE DNS resolution issues regarding reverse proxy on local network


Hello Everyone,

As the title says, I am having issues reaching my internally hosted resources via reverse proxy on my Fedora KDE install. I found little info about this, and I am wondering if I am on a wild goose chase.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and sorry for the wall of text in advance!

Here's the anonymized setup:

192.168.1.10 is the docker host with web services on different ports
192.168.1.20 is the server that acts as a reverse proxy via caddy2, so I can use app.domain.example instead of ip:port and it handles certs from let's encrypt via DNS challenge. No ports are open to the internet. I VPN in when remote access is needed.

192.168.1.30 is the Pihole set up as the DHCP assigned local DNS. It has local DNS entries:
A record for caddy.domain.example mapped to 192.168.1.20
CNAME record for app.domain.example mapped to caddy.domain.example

This works perfectly fine on other devices and distros, windows, android etc.
On Fedora KDE live images 42 and 43 beta, and the installed OSs have this problem (currently have 42 installed so this is not a beta thing) Access works via IP:Port. It looks like it just doesn't want to take the reverse proxy route.

If I do an nslookup from the fedora device, it reaches pihole, and can resolve app.domain.example to caddy.domain.example, then that to 192.168.1.20.

nslookup app.domain.example
Server:         127.0.0.53
Address:        127.0.0.53#53

Non-authoritative answer:
app.domain.example  canonical name = caddy.domain.exampe
Name:   caddy.domain.example
Address: 192.168.1.20
caddy.domain.example canonical name = 192.168.1.20.

resolvectl link 3 is the relevant one.
resolvectl
Global
         Protocols: LLMNR=resolve -mDNS -DNSOverTLS DNSSEC=no/unsupported
  resolv.conf mode: stub

Link 2 (enp3s0f0)
    Current Scopes: none
         Protocols: -DefaultRoute LLMNR=resolve -mDNS -DNSOverTLS DNSSEC=no/unsupported
     Default Route: no

Link 3 (wlp1s0)
    Current Scopes: DNS LLMNR/IPv4 LLMNR/IPv6
         Protocols: +DefaultRoute LLMNR=resolve -mDNS -DNSOverTLS DNSSEC=no/unsupported
Current DNS Server: 192.168.1.30
       DNS Servers: 192.168.1.30
        DNS Domain: domain.local
     Default Route: yes

I can see it's using the stub resolver which I found some docs about but I am unsure what to change at this stage.

If I run traceroute for app.domain.example i get "No address associated with hostname"

I guess this is because here isn't any public records for this subdomain, only the wildcard pointing to my local Caddy IP for the certs.

Thanks for reading!

What happens if you add a local record to your local hosts file?

Also, are you using domain.local and not an actual custom domain?

in reply to just_another_person

I have a domain registered that I use, just didn't feel the need to mention it exactly. Hence why I anonymized my results. I did not change anything that would alter the troubleshooting steps, only the domain name and ip addresses are generic but otherwise consistent.

The domain and records are set up correctly on the provider end because I receive valid let's encrypt certs for my subdomains through caddy. The issue is only with Fedora. I checked a live of ubuntu and fedora iso on a second computer. Fedora consistently cannot resolve the domains on the default configuration while ubuntu and anything else I tried can.

I just tried adding the local IP:Port and the app.domain.example to the /etc/hosts file as the examples show. Restarted systemd-resolved but no dice. Ideally, I'd like to make this family friendly and avoid having to make client specific configurations anyway. So far only I run fedora at home, so my device has this issue only. I am partial to the OS otherwise, so I was hoping I could solve this.

EDIT
Sorry about that it dawned on my what you asked for really.
From the resolvedctl results DNS Domain: domain.local would be mydomainname.local. Yes I kept .local in the search domain fields for most of my things. Is this something that matters, or could this be a workaround if I changed it to my actual mydomainname.tld?
As far as I undertand this would work if mDNS was on. Not sure if LLMNR makes use of it the same way.

Questa voce è stata modificata (1 mese fa)
in reply to GetAwayWithThis

Solved by reading the docs, sort of...

By following the instructions to opt out of using systemd-resolved completely, it works.
fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes…

This meant creating this simlink

sudo ln -sfv /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf

and creating this config file with the contents

sudo bash -c 'mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system-preset && echo "disable systemd-resolved.service" >/etc/systemd/system-preset/20-systemd-resolved-disable.preset'

But this wasn't enough. I had to stop the systemd-resolved.service as for some reason it did still start after a reboot, so I ran the following commands:

sudo systemctl disable systemd-resolved and
sudo systemctl stop systemd-resolved

Now I am able to go through the caddy reverse proxy on my LAN.

Apple as a future Graphene OEM?


Is Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) and/or Memory Integrity Encforcement (MIE) one of the requisite features for GrapheneOS?

The recent moves from Google that look like Android will become more of a "closed garden", and it might affect the furure of privacy ROMs.

I'm not sure if thats the same reason for this, but GrapheneOS have stated that they are working on a phone from another Android OEM. I have no idea if apple's chips allow exclusively ios or linux-like os on the system, but how feasable is it that they might consider Apple (given if the inclusion of MIE & MTE makes iPhones more compatible with gOS) in the future?


@xyhhx We're working on GrapheneOS support for future generations of a subset of the device models provided by a major Android OEM. Their current devices don't provide the updates and security features we need, but they're capable of doing it. We're working with them towards providing this so we can support their devices. They may end up officially selling devices with GrapheneOS as an option but that's not the bare minimum and it can be successful even without initially having that.

in reply to ambardeshielo

Why would using Apple's walled garden be a solution to Android becoming a walled garden? I can't understand why this sentiment of moving to use Apple comes up so often lately.
in reply to Luke

GrapheneOS exists for maximal security and privacy, not for freedom.
in reply to Tenderizer78

Security is a medium to get to Privacy, which imo is the means for freedom in the digital aspect.
in reply to Luke

I'm not saying I would like it, its not a sentiment, its just questioning possibilities. Which now I see how hard it is thanks to other more informative comments. I would not like it in fact, if it happened, but if it did, a gos iphone would not belong in the enclosed garden since its only the hardware provider. (imo).

You do you, but I think it's rarely worth it having the absolutely newest version of something. The Debian version of a package may be older, but often has the advantage of being well-tested. And the Debian version of ncdu is all I've ever used and it has worked well.

uniget, huh? That's not a package manager I've ever heard of before.

Largest Caucus in House Endorses Bill to Block US Bombs to Israel | Common Dreams


cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/36498075

Jon Queally
Sep 21, 2025
The Congressional Progressive Caucus over the weekend officially endorsed a bill that would block the sale of many offensive US weapons to Israel. This move coincides with growing outrage from US voters from across the political spectrum who say they have seen enough of American complicity with the genocidal humanitarian blockade and bombardment of the Gaza Strip.

The Block the Bombs Act, first introduced in May by Rep. Delia C. Ramirez (D-Ill.) and now backed by 49 co-sponsors, calls for a prohibition on the sale of a variety of US weapons and a limitation on military services to the Israeli government, accused of committing a genocide in Gaza.

The vote by the caucus, which took place Saturday and was first reported by Zeteo, marks a historic shift—even for the most progressive group of lawmakers on Capitol Hill—that provides “a significant boost to efforts to hold Israel accountable for its genocidal war in Gaza.”

Old laptop suddenly won't recognize Linux boot drive


I'm in a really weird situation, yesterday I installed Linux (Fedora Kinoite) on my mothers laptop (An old Asus F550C) and it worked perfectly fine. Great! Or so I thought.

We needed a few files from Windows 10, so I put that drive in, put the files on a USB stick, put the Linux drive back in and... Nothing? It recognizes the drive, but not the Linux boot option.
I put the drive in my pc and it works fine, the boot drive is also still detected in the laptop just fine.

What the hell could it be??

  • The laptop is fine (Windows drive works perfectly)
  • The drive is recognized in bios (But not the boot option)
  • The drive works fine in my desktop and can boot to Fedora
  • The laptop can boot to the USB drive I used to create the install
  • Yesterday it worked just fine
  • I went through the bios, but can't find any settings related to this (Secure boot did not fix it)

Update: the issue is solved! Windows somehow wiped the efiboot entry.

I mounted the drive from a live usb and ran

sudo efibootmgr --create --disk /dev/sda --part 1 --label "Fedora" --loader '\EFI\fedora\shimx64.efi'


After rebooting, the system works again!

I've dealt with something similar to this on a lenovo ideapad.

The BIOS picks up UEFI info from windows and messes up the boot config and order. I solved it by using grub2 rescue, booting to the correct Linux entry and using grub to update UEFI and write the config correctly again.

Super pain in the a**.

in reply to non_burglar

This ended up being the issue! Booted up a live USB, mounted the disk and ran

sudo efibootmgr --create --disk /dev/sda --part 1 --label "Fedora" --loader '\EFI\fedora\shimx64.efi'


After rebooting it worked again!

Now to never plug a windows drive into that PC again...

I have an old laptop running it since a year ago. It's getting there. If you use it long enough, you will still regularly stumble on little things that are nicer to use on gnome or kde but it's getting there. I plan on switching my primary desktop to it for the 26.04 release

I was very excited for COSMIC but I have kind of moved on the Niri now. I am not sure it will lure me back.

That said, I have been using COSMIC Term and COSMIC Panel with Niri. So they still have their hooks in me.



Israel attack on Yemeni newspaper was second deadliest on journalists ever recorded


Thirty one journalists and media staff were killed by Israeli strikes on newspaper offices in Yemen last week in what the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) said on Friday was the deadliest attack on journalists in the last 16 years.

Israel struck a newspaper complex in Sana’a, Yemen’s capital, which housed three Houthi-connected media outlets on 10 September. At the time, members of the Yemeni army’s press arm were finishing the weekly print edition, according to the publication’s editor-in-chief, which increased the number of journalists present during the strike.

At least 35 people were killed in the attack, including one child who accompanied a journalist to the office, and 131 were wounded, according to the Houthi ministry of health. All of the journalists worked for either the Houthi-affiliated 26 September newspaper or Yemen newspaper.

The attack was the second-deadliest against journalists that the CPJ had ever recorded, after the Maguindanao massacre in the Philippines in 2009.




The problem with Bernie Sanders’s ‘it is genocide’ admission - The US senator recognises the genocide of the Palestinian people but ends up blaming them for it.


History will judge us for whether we could see genocide for what it is, without asterisks, without exceptions, without the comfortable lies that let the powerful sleep while children starve to death or get torn to pieces. If we fail to grasp this fundamental truth, we do not just fail Palestinians. We fail every occupied, colonised, and oppressed people who might one day be told their resistance justifies their extermination.

Bingo. Took him years to admit it, but immediately opens up by blaming the genocide on Al-Aqsa Flood and the resistance groups fighting against nearly a century of settler-colonial genocide. Bernie's a sheepdog.
in reply to technocrit

Anyone who prefaces every criticism of Israel with a condemnation of KHAMMAS is an imperialist. And yet he still tries to cling on to his reputation as an egalitarian with hollow words of support for "oppressed people".

New to Proxmox, Facing Issues with Homelab Setup - Need Advice


cross-posted from: lemmy.buddyverse.net/post/5454

Hello everyone, I’m fairly new to Proxmox and struggling with my homelab setup. I have two machines running Proxmox 9: an HP EliteDesk 800 G5 Mini (Core i7-9700) and a Dell OptiPlex 7070 Micro (Core i3 9th gen). I’m running into several issues and would appreciate your insights.
  1. Networking Issue on EliteDesk: I have two VMs (both Ubuntu Server 24.04 LTS) on the same bridge (default vmbr0, I haven't modified any network settings in proxmox). If I stop or shut down one VM, the other loses internet connectivity. I can still access the applications from my home network using IP address (192.268.x.x).



  1. Backup Setup on OptiPlex: I’m running a Proxmox Backup Server VM with Backblaze B2 as an S3 datastore. This is working fine so far.
  2. Backup Problems on EliteDesk: I’m using default LVM-thin for VMs. Backups take a very long time and often freeze at 1-2%. Shutting down the VM cleanly afterward is nearly impossible. I’ve tried both Stop and Snapshot modes, but the issue persists. When a VM becomes unresponsive, it triggers the networking issue above. Would switching to ZFS help? If so, how can I migrate without losing any data?
  3. Hardware Acceleration for Jellyfin: On the EliteDesk, I’d like to enable hardware acceleration for a VM running Jellyfin (in Docker) using the i7-9700’s UHD 630 iGPU. Can anyone recommend a clear guide specific to this CPU? The Proxmox documentation isn’t very detailed for Intel GPUs.

The networking issue is the most frustrating. Has anyone encountered similar bridge problems? Any advice on fixes or next steps would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

this is odd, if everything in in a bridge, then a physical port to your switch/router should be your uplink. Check for MTU mismatches, and CRC errors on the cabling.
in reply to RCSM

I don't think MTU mismatch or CRC error is the root cause. So far, I haven't modified any proxmox settings. I've updated the post. ❤️

NOT ON THAT PAGE:

  • a description as to what the FLX is.

I can make a guess, but it's easier to hit Next.

in reply to cyrano

Always excited to see more "buy here" alternatives rather than "just" an OS or custom ROM. Obviously we need that too but all too often we get stuck having to buy another phone we do not want (e.g. Pixel because Google) or hardware that's not supported enough for daily driving (e.g. PinePhone with camera still not supported properly on Pro, years later, power management unable to handle a day of use).

Unfortunately "FuriOS" doesn't look like a reliable alternative just based on the number of eyes, and hands, on it, cf github.com/FuriLabs so unless they can somehow pull all that weight on their own then I'd let others try before me and read reviews on the whole experience, not solely the quality of the hardware or the architecture of the software.





Starmer set to announce UK recognition of Palestinian state


in reply to sabreW4K3

Are they recognising them so that they can add Palestine's dogtags to their collection once they've wiped them out?
