No, there's a longstanding pattern to solve the group issue.

  1. Add users that need write perms to the same group (create a new group if it makes sense to do so)
  2. Set the directory's group to that group
  3. Set the directory perms to group writable
  4. Set the SGID bit for the directory (chmod g+s for existing dirs, but you can set the umask so new dirs get it too)

1-3 ensures everyone that needs to write can, and 4 will make any file created in that dir inherit the group from the dir instead of the creating user. So future files will still be writable due to group write perms.

Caveat: I've used LUKS quite a bit, but never to do exactly what you're trying to do, so the following is a guess.

If the root disk was the encrypted one, the tooling would add scripts to your initramfs to handle the prompting and unlocking at boot.

Since it's not the root, those scripts may not be getting added.

I'm not sure about the "right" way to force it to add them, but you should be able to manually tweak your initramfs setup to add them.

In no particular order:

  • Kerbal Space Program
  • Factorio
  • Rimworld
  • Valheim
  • Minecraft (Java)
  • Ark SE

Those are my main games and easy for me to pick.

The last 4 slots are tougher. They're likely to change the longer I think about it.

  • Some version of Civilization. I'm not sure which I'd prefer.
  • Something technical. Shenzen IO, Human Resource Machine, MHRD, etc
  • EverQuest. If a live service MMO isn't allowed, I could arguably run a private, emulated server using the EQ emu project.
  • If I can pick a sold-as-one collection that I bought years ago but is no longer available for purchase, it would probably be a collection of Infocom text adventure games.

You would also say it "five or so eggs". The "or so" gets tied directly to the number, not the eggs.

I feel like that's context dependent. Or maybe regional.

I'd certainly say "I need 30 or so feet of rope".

But if asked "how much rope do you need?" My answer would be "30 feet or so".

If you decide you do want to be a belt and suspenders guy, look up Perry suspenders.

They make suspenders that hook under your belt. More reliable than the little metal clips, no buttons to add to your pants, and you still have a place to attach your Leatherman.

I've got several pairs and I've been pretty happy with them.

Now we know why the comparison in Monty Python's song "Henry Kissinger" was

But you've got nicer legs than Hitler

and bigger tits than Cher

rather than the other way around.

Really it depends on how your employer handles expenses for travel, and how lax they are about verifying receipts.

Several places where I've worked have had things in place that would stop this kind of thing from occurring (whether that was the intended purpose behind those things or not)

But if they only require you submit the purchase receipt, then you might be able to do what you suggest. But if there's any info on the receipt that could lead them back to the canceled ticket (confirmation number, etc) then it could backfire on you if they check it. They could probably even use the credit card transaction number to the same end. But I'd expect that to be more involved and less likely unless you did something to make them suspicious.

Possible? Maybe. Risky? Also maybe.

I've heard so much great stuff about the series, but I've heard conflicting things about where to start.

If you were going to start over, never having read any of them, what would be your preferred order?
