What $10/yr vps are you using?

const_void ,

And now there's a foobar2000 on Linux

const_void ,

should I develop for Amarok or Fooyin?

Fooyin would be my bet. The development is much much more active than Amarok and is a ground up new program, not a codebase from decades ago.

const_void ,

Sorry for your loss. I went through this myself today. I'm devastated.

Knights among toner cartridges ( infosec.pub )

(Business people) speaking a language familiar and dear to them. Its portentous nouns and verbs invest ordinary events with high adventure; executives walk among toner cartridges, caparisoned like knights. We should tolerate them - every person of spirit wants to ride a white horse....

const_void ,

Yeah but they're both 1080 Acers

const_void ,

Latest models suck. I have a T15p and it's garbage.

const_void ,

We have nothing but problems with the ThinkPads issued by my IT department. Multiple models. They're not what they used to be.

const_void ,

The problematic models we have are all T series.

const_void ,

Agreed. Most Youtube thumbnails are cancer. Bug eyes with mouth wide open or pointing at something. Enough already.

const_void ,

the only OS to make sense really

How does it make more sense than Fedora KDE?

const_void ,

Interesting. I didn't realize it was structured this way. I thought it was similar to NixOS for some reason.

const_void ,

Besides the installer, in what ways do Debian and Fedora hold your hand?

const_void ,

What hype?

const_void ,

Nice, I wasn't aware of the Waydroid support

const_void ,

Duntun? Never heard of this brand. Is it safe to use?

const_void ,

Yet another bubble. Same as the Crypto scam bubble last year.

Another successful OpenBSD setup

I've been buying these little boxes from AliExpress for years to use as firewalls and routers. My oldest one is almost 9 years old now! OpenBSD installs just fine. Just a BIOS tweak to always boot up after power is restored.

No and they don't provide the source either. Makes you wonder what's running in there.

Sure as long as security isn't a concern

const_void ,

As @floofloof stated:

The only concerns are that you don’t get BIOS updates, and you don’t know for sure that there’s nothing nasty in the firmware.

This story seems fishy. Why would the hole for the facial recognition camera be so poorly made? It looks like someone made it with a screwdriver, not something that was made in a factory.

Edit: got it

Reddit: 'We Are in the Early Stages of Monetizing Our User Base' ( www.404media.co )

Reddit said in a filing to the Securities and Exchange Commission that its users’ posts are “a valuable source of conversation data and knowledge” that has been and will continue to be an important mechanism for training AI and large language models. The filing also states that the company believes “we are in the early...

The voting system let's people push comments to the top that they want to be true, not necessarily things that are true.

const_void ,

Linux has relatively few terminal options compared to Mac and Windows

I don't think so Tim

const_void ,

Given how hard they've been pushing Copilot/Bing Chat/etc I'm not surprised

const_void ,

Gonic is a nice alternative to Navidrome if you don't need a web UI

const_void ,

will consider having more pizza on layoff days.

And they will only order two pineapple pizzas and you will like it!

Judging by all the "Shop like a billionaire" ads during the super bowl, people are still worshipping them.

const_void ,

We need regulation for data security. This is getting out of hand.

const_void ,

Makes me wonder how many derelict Arch installs there are out there...

self-hosted/FOSS remote-access support gateway

One of the problems with having switched over a number of relatives to Linux is that I'm "the guy" when they have issues, and I can't always get over to help them in a timely manner. A lot of the time most stuff is working just fine and it's just a matter of popping into the desktop and fixing a bad link or a naughty plugin...

const_void ,

Been using it for years at work. Really awesome piece of free software.

const_void ,

Last I heard GPU accelerated video decoding didn't work

const_void ,

Framework is the best option these days for upgrades and repairs

const_void ,

Not really true any more. The build quality isn't as good as it used to be and the upgradability has suffered too.

const_void ,

Pay now or pay later.

const_void ,

Lenovo uses proprietary, closed source firmware. There's no way to know what it's doing.

Man the circle jerks around people like elon and andrew tate is disgusting on youtube .

I accidentally watched some youtube shorts and algorithm pushed a ahort about elon and then some shorts about tate . The comment section was acting like they were gods among men and everyone was wanting to be like them or praising them or wanting to follow them .etc . Do they only know who these people are from shit like shorts...

Fixed that for you

Fill them up with homeless people and solve the housing crisis.

const_void ,

Yet 80 people upvoted it. Strange...

Is anyone else worried about the apple vision pro?

i wouldn't normally be concerned since any company releasing a VR product with this price tag is obviously going to fail... but it's apple and somehow through exquisite branding and sleek design they have managed to create something that resonated with "tech reviewers" and rich folk who can afford it....

const_void ,

People are going to use these things irresponsibly like when they're driving.

const_void ,

Requires a phone number to sign up. No thanks.

What are the most paranoid network/OS security measures you've implemented in your homelab?

As the title says, I want to know the most paranoid security measures you've implemented in your homelab. I can think of SDN solutions with firewalls covering every interface, ACLs, locked-down/hardened OSes etc but not much beyond that. I'm wondering how deep this paranoia can go (and maybe even go down my own route too!)....

const_void ,

Aren't you just DoSing yourself at that point?

const_void ,

New? This has been fixed for a week or more.

const_void ,

Why does it need to grow? Seems fine the way it is now.

const_void ,

There are some hardware companies prioritizing Linux (System 76, Tuxedo, Framework, etc) yet when someone asks for a hardware recommendation around here the answer is always "Lenovo" for some reason. The Linux community needs to do better in this area.

const_void ,

This is a prime example of why we should be supporting manufacturers that ship open source firmware like coreboot and not the proprietary junk Lenovo ships.
