Mostly black, but after living in the UK for awhile I got used to doing a touch of honey and/or milk.

It's definitely not a contraction.

-er is the agent suffix in English. Effectively it turns words into those who do something related to that word.

Hawk > Hawker = One who "hawks" Run > Runner = One who "runs"

In principle this implies the existance of a verbal form of the root word, such as the two above examples.

Witcher, as used by the fantasy series, is a weird one because it's actually not related to the agent suffix.

The Polish title of The Witcher is Wiedźma which just means "witch". When it was translated to English they adopted "witcher" as a masculine form to the oft feminine "witch" by using the ability for the -er suffix to indicate a profession or association with a noun in English i.e. Cash > Cashier, someone who handles cash/payments (actually derived from french with the -ier suffix, but point still stands). In the cass of Witcher it is one who works as/with witches or else one who is associated with Witches.

So, at least on Samsung, the MyFiles app, the default file browser, allows for network connections via smb.

In my case, I use a vpn to tunnel into my network, and then just use the smb share.

It also allows for FTP and SFTP.

Y'all are listening to audiobooks at 1.5x???

I just tried it... it's like clippy. How do you do that?

There's a weird thing with bind mounts and permissions.

In my case, for my Ubuntu VM to have correct perms for 0:0 (root), the PID and GID in ProxMox's fstab need to be like 11000:10000 or something.

It's apparently working as intended that way, but it's weird.
