Don’t get me wrong, I dislike other gaming consoles too. Why would I buy a device that I don’t really own, i.e. the manufacturer can pull the rug from under it at any time and render it completely useless? I get your point about ‘innovative’ designs. But then they should sell the device separately and allow the user to with it as they please (see steam deck).

I’ve always felt the other way around: If you’re trying to sell me games, make them for PC. I’m not buying a new device just for Mario

You can use FDE and setup a minimal ssh server like dropbear to run at startup. This way, you can supply the password via a keyboard connected to the machine OR via ssh. This gives you a similar workflow to the data partition you mentioned, but encrypts the entire system.

Which country is that? I just recently got fiber, but 1G down 0.5G up would cost me 90€/month, and that’s the fastest they’re offering.

I also wouldn’t use the built-in Wifi on this, but I can understand why they’d want to offer an all-in-one solution

I hate the cloudflare stuff making me do captchas or outright denying me with a burning passion. My fault for committing the heinous crime of using a VPN!

From the image, it doesn’t seem like it has rack mounts, which is kind of an odd choice. There are lots of switches that have a similar form factor, but can be put in 10" or 19" racks depending on which rack ears you put on it

Follow-up video idea: speed ≠ distance

Am I having a stroke?

Git is already decentralized, nothing is stopping you from adding multiple remotes to your repo.

I am almost afraid to say it, but I’m confident someone out there has created such a cursed terminal. The modern word ribbon does not match the windows XP theme, though :(

I wonder if registry keys can be set with an ansible script? Granted, that is still not as nice as a declarative config (yay NixOS), but better than having to write down and do by hand again on a new install

That varies from command to command though. man is nice if you know how to use the command but have forgotten which option does what you want. But if you have no idea how to use a program, reading e.g. man awk will not be very helpful

There are definitely people who think it is reasonable to memorize button locations and 10 levels of menus in GUI programs but would rather go into cardiac arrest than use something like program --option input-file output-file.

I’m almost afraid to ask, but is there a LaTeX package for emojis? Or do you just insert them as unicode?

A commercial for rehab?

Sadly they killed port forwarding though. I suspect torrenting speeds are much worse now?

Uhm this is exactly why you only store already-encrypted data on remote servers

I like obsidian specifically because you don’t need to rely on some built-in sync tool. The files are right there and in a sane format, you can sync them however you want. I use syncthing for this at home, but the choice is yours

What is your name? What is your quest? What… is your favorite colour?
