🔒 SPB (start-private-browser)

This GIST has everything you need to run multiple private web browsers on your system.

Kick off installer script (you may inspect source below) with the ~~one liner~~ four lines bellow in your terminal :

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL \

	# check disk usage : output is graphical and feed out to stout.
	ncdu

	# check a disk is saving things as it should - check flash disks, hdd's, memory sticks, raids and more :)
	f3write /path/to/mount && f3read /path/to/mount

	# network / wifi
	nmcli # eg : nmcli device wifi connect "<ssid>" --ask

	# check file type

	# About :
	# This script will print messages as they arrive from a meshtastic node connected via serial port USB.
	# If you have multiple nodes attached, you will need to edit this script and specify the node to monitor.
	#
	# Requirements :

	#!/bin/bash
	# ssh-multi

	# Modified to check if the script is started within a TMUX session to avoid starting in a background TMUX session

	# NOTES
	#
	# - this approach has been tested on mint (will work on many other distributions as well - YMMV)
	# - this approach uses swap files not partitions
	#


	# create a 5GB swap disk to use - run as root!
	swapon --show
	mkdir /swapfiles ; chmod 700 /swapfiles

 # This script may be used when cinnamon springs
 # a memory leak. Running this script will start
 # a screen session and run 'cinnamon --replace'
 # within this new session.
 #
 # Presently, this is a script to be run manually.
 # perhaps in the future a deamon to keep an eye
 # on memory usage would be a good idea.

	# Sometimes when moving files around, you do not have the ability to directly
	# preserve permissions, the approach below uses two commands : getfacl and setfacl
	# to save and restore permissions once your rsync is compled.
	# Alterativly, you can also explore using the fake-super options in rsync.

	# The commands below are if you have a small number of files, there are also some
	# scripts below to split up larger files in to chunks for batch processing.

	# save permissions for a direcotry tree to a file using ACL tools
	getfacl --recursive ./ > permissions.data

	# monitor (realtime) usbguard
	usbguard watch

	# perminatly allow USB device
	usbguard allow-device --permanent <device-id-number>
