My computer at home
this is what my computer setup looks like at home.
my computer runs debian gnu/linux. i have it all customized to my liking. i use it for browsing the internet, hosting my jellyfin instance, video editing and gaming.
a while ago i b0rked my linux install due to me deleting an important package. i tried to fix it but i realised i couldn't so i just backed up my /etc and /home directory on a spare hard drive and reinstalled debian.
this was me trying to chown another hard drive i have in my pc that became read-only due to me having to reinstall debian. it didn't work but i then i figured the problem. i just had to unmount the drive and input the command "sudo ntfsfix -b -d /dev/sdXX" and then it became read-write again.
this photo shows my pc open because i had to fiddle with different hard drives to back up my data.
