Unattended-Upgrades. Most of the time it is better to risk a faulty upgrade instead of an unpatched remote ACE.

Always have a spare.

Plus the sun doesn’t care. It’s there… fissionating. Why would it take that antroprocentric view? H and He are the Sun’s thing, not C or O.

I don’t get the resentment for yuno. In the end it is a hobby. You can have fun building everything from scratch. And you can have fun, using pre configured services.

What counts is that you get away from big corp.

Can’t say much about your tutorial though. Didn’t read it. I’m sorry. ;)

Oracle is like a sledge slope. But for Software. And the sledges break on the way.

It is just another turn of the enshittification downward-spiral. There have been steps before this and there will be more to come. Maybe this will drive users away.

You can decide if you need the platform and look for alternatives - but where to? Content creators want the range and the monetization of yt. Classic lock-in.

There are alternative frontends for yt. But the content stays there.

I use their wifi APs because they make them really easy to configure and manage. But the management interface stays locked in a vlan without access to the internets. Because I don’t trust their cloud affinity.

This also disqualifies their routers and firewalls for me. How can I trust a device which tries to phone home? So that area is covered by opnsense on a device with a sufficient amount of Ethernet ports.

Any device with a mass storage can act as a NAS - a single board computer + Linux + samba/ nfs/ scp/ sftp. I heard TrueNAS or OpenMediaVault are recommended as all in one solutions - I don’t know them.

Hit f2 or del or whatever the screen tells you during boot to enter the UEFI menu (or hold shift while clicking restart in w11 or w10 to reboot into uefi). Then search for an option to change the buttons behaviour to right ctrl instead of cockpit.

I don’t own an ai Thinkpad, sorry.

It’s worth taking a look in the BIOS/ UEFI setup - maybe the key can be remapped there? Once the default F-key behaviour could be defined in there for ThinkPad devices.

Verbose please? What happened?

E: thank you all. Especially lambdaRX’ hint to a summary (comment 234 by GrabbenD) helped me.

When you read the article the headline starts to make sense. I wouldn’t have read it based on the headline. Thankfully you read it nevertheless and praised it. :)

Thanks for the explanation. Humans are strange.

Oh I hated these warts.

All the effort that goes into protecting content and almost none works for a longer period of time.

But it always affects the rightful user (if it gets in the way). Looking at you HDCP, you are the reason for the few seconds delay before the HDMI connection is made.

I’ve been hinking about infrastructure as code tools. Skimmed the very surface of opentofu, looked at the list of alternatives.

I’m in need of something that is both, deployment automation and (implicit) documentation of the thing that I call “the zoo”. Namely:

• network definition
• machine definitions (VMs, containers) and their configuration
• inventory: keeping track of third party resources

Now I think about which tool would be the right one for the job while I’m still not 100% sure what the job is. I don’t like added complexity, it is quite possible this could become a dead end for me, if I spend more time wrangling the tool than I gain in the end.

PS: If you haven’t already, please take a look at your openssl packages. Since this week there are two new CVEs rated as high: https://openssl-library.org/news/vulnerabilities/index.html

determine how DDG will use AI in the future?

In this regard it makes perfect sense. I guess it was just me who asked for the general population answer.
