And even if you don’t care, if you have an old machine booting from a HDD, the process at least isn’t so boring.
I like computers, trains, space, radio-related everything and a bunch of other tech related stuff. User of GNU+Linux.
I am also dumb and worthless.
My laptop is ThinkPad L390y running Arch.
I own RTL-SDRv3 and RSP1 clone.

Yeah, just reminded me of this.


I went with Google.
Edit: I am just saying what I went with. I didn’t have another fitting option.


Choice is good. Back when smartphones were still small (3 - 4 inches), I instead bought a 7" tablet with modem and used it as a phone. It was still small enough to fit in a pocket.


You can get that in most Chinese phones. The IR blaster, that is.
There’s even some brands that have crazy phones, like Unihertz, Doogee and Ulefone. You can even get one with a projector.
Unihertz specifically makes special phones.


If I can get GrapheneOS + headphone jack + SD card slot, I am in.


I get what you’re going for here. But another caveat to add would be that the people in this sort of relationship shouldn’t have children.
Which is in my 1st sentence.


Following “if it isn’t harmful, it’s not a problem” as a guideline, incest isn’t immoral if it doesn’t involve large power imbalance (e.g.: parent and offspring) and doesn’t produce offspring.
If the relationship, be it purely romantic or otherwise is mutually desired and fully consensual (usual requirements), then I don’t see how it would be different from other non-standard relationships.
I hope that’s plenty controversial.


I recently tried Ubuntu.
Wait, no, I fought Ubuntu.
Firefox was snap. OK, remove it and apt install. Nope, that installs a snap. Now, one more thing, for some reason uninstalling the snap version of Firefox took several minutes each time where it was “disconnecting” it from a bunch of things, or something along those lines.
So I followed the Mozilla guide for Firefox installation on Ubuntu. Did it work? No. The higher priority setting for Mozilla repo from their guide didn’t work.
Finally, I found the answer on OMG Ubuntu, and I could finally install the regular Firefox package.
One is currently out of service.


I see, we got the the AMD Epyc creators here.


Here you go:


Wait, I am supposed to care about .pacnew files?
Anyway, so far all I found there is new optional dependencies.
I rather wonder what happens when manual intervention is needed, like when JDK started being in conflict with JRE.


I was just looking if something like that exists yesterday, but got disappointed. Nice timing.


Well, Lemmy does have something



Allegedly allegedly allegedly
Anyway, why do they still ship these bricks? I’ve got a 65W GaN that works just as well, and is the size of a phone adapter. Even has extra type C and type A ports, though the output to extra ones depends on output to main.
And they cost about the same too.
Carrying around a brick with one permanently attached cable and one more IEC cable just to power a basic office laptop feels stupid.
Problem with plain Wireguard is if you can’t open ports on some devices to get a direct connection. It should be just fine with hub and spoke model, but NAT Traversal of Tailscale makes a huge difference. I can get a direct connection between 2 devices connected to mobile data and behind CG-NAT.
And also the config management if you have too many devices.
Hub and spoke, you just add new devices to Wireguard on the main device, and the new peer. Full mesh, oof.
But as far as configuring Wireguard goes, that’s pretty simple. And then there’s the weird stuff with MTU and fragmentation… but that’s not something Wireguard-specific.
