Let's give credit where it's due: https://github.com/maybenot-io/maybenot

The Maybenot Framework (FOSS) is how Mulvad pulls this off, and if you run your own VPN you can use this too! Mulvad is a contributor (and funder), so good on them.

Edit: for those interested, Mulvad's client is a fork of Wireguard with Maybenot incorporated as a submodule. Cool stuff: https://github.com/mullvad/wireguard-go

Since the other answer is desktop use, if in Linux your best bet is smartctl.

Every time they post on Mastodon they should make a post on Twitter that says they posted there until they get banned.

Credits aside, these dont seem like bad numbers when compared to spend/investment. Tesla management got what they wanted.

There are a bunch of things that I think are value-destroying for me to talk about, so I’m not going to talk about those.

Mmhmm.

Nice, all good options!

For iOS, I'd recommend Flutter, since that's where the market is going, and they have good quick start guides.

For Docker, it changed my world. I taught someone in these steps, they used GPT to do each step individually, but were required to learn what each part of the compose file did as they went. They used WSL in Windows, but doing it via CLI is key.

  • Use docker-compose to start an Alpine Linux container and Docker Exec into it
  • Get the id of the container with Docker PS
  • Add an environment variable of THIS set to 1
  • Swap Alpine Linix for Nginx, and open 127.0.0.1:80 on it so you can visit it from local host
  • Mount a folder on the local machine into the container as a volume with an index.html page so Nginx will serve that page

Getting those basics down one step at a time will make all the rest soooooo much easier.

Until the UPS battery gets low and it beeps, and they look for a way to turn it off vs calling you. Yup.

You seem to feel like you should learn Swift, but don't want to. If you're looking for tech growth, but can't get invigorated, maybe try a different direction?

Self-host a good first-app, like Nextcloud?

Watch build videos on Voron 3D printers?

Switch apps you can from the Play Store to Obtainium to prep for DeGoogling your life?

Make a server out of some old laptop?

Write scripts that automatically set up your PC when you reinstall?

Organize all your techy tools on a pegboard?

Fast for the benchmarks. "We'll make it slower and safer later."

But now you can't bring it on a plane

 

Hey all,

Anyone familiar with the state of Raptor Lake performance + efficiency cores in Linux? I'm specifically curious about how the kernel balances things when running multiple containers (without pinned CPUs)

Thanks!

 

Trying to figure out if there is a way to do this without zfs sending a ton of data. I have:

  • s/test1, inside it are folders:
    • folder1
    • folder2

I have this pool backed up remotely by sending snapshots.

I'd like to split this up into:

  • s/test1, inside is folder:
    • folder1
  • s/test2, inside is folder:
    • folder2

I'm trying to figure out if there is some combination of clone and promote that would limit the amount of data needed to be sent over the network.

Or maybe there is some record/replay method I could do on snapshots that I'm not aware of.

Thoughts?

Since everyone here seemed to like my Pegboard designs, I figured I'd share this as well. When making the Only Sensor (see the home automation community or my site), I used this Solder Fume Extractor to keep my lungs nice and clean.

Fully 3D printable, and a full bill or materials on the link. Enjoy!

Hrm, not sure why the image returned a logo, but here it is:

So, I think I got backwards-deck. I play Rocket League, so input lag is a big deal for me there. However, the issue I have seems opposite of what I see online:

  • Using deck controls has noticeable lag
  • Using a wired X-Box controller has noticeable lag
  • Using a Bluetooth X-Box controller works pretty good

Can anyone think of why I would have such bad lag on the built-in controls?

EDIT So this might be display, not input lag!

  • Set Gamescope Disable FPS Limiter On
  • Set Gamescope Allow Tearing On
  • Set Rocket League Vsync Off
  • Set Rocket League FPS to 144

The deck works a lot harder, and fans go crazy, but it's playable without an external monitor now. I think in limiting to the didplay's 60hz, the Deck must be doing something else causing display lag.

 

So I have a debate in my head right now about how I should handle devices stored unattended in vehicles. The criteria:

  • Devices have new versions of Android
  • Pass phrases or many-digit pins are used
  • Biometric login is set up (but can't be used in Lockdown Mode)
  • Have Bitwarden installed with biometric auth for the vault
  • Has SSH keys on the device

I'm not worried about nation state attacks, but am considering the vector of a tech savy thief, and want to keep SSH keys and other device data secure. Assume they cannot be stored in a vault.

Is storing the phones on but in Lockdown mode enough, or should I turn them off completely? Off would be super annoying to wait for boot every time, but I'm not totally sure how KEK works for an encrypted device with biometrics set up but in Lockdown Mode where they are disabled.

 

Anyone else in this boat? It was said by a Bamboo user when I was chatting about my modded Maker Select and the Voron I'm about to build.

I do use the printer a lot for designing and making projects like the sensors I just launched or the Twystlock for Steam Deck, etc.

But I like tinkering/making more. For example I used to mod video game consoles more than I played them, so the comment made sense to me.

 

Hey all,

A couple of weeks ago I posted my 3D printable pegboard organizers, and today I’m releasing the Only Sensor line of home automation sensors.

Fully free and open, complete with wiring diagrams, cases, component bill of materials, and instructions for assembly.

You source and build them yourself, with acquisition costs ranging from $2-$35 to build, and options for:

  • mmWave presence
  • PIR motion detection
  • Temperature
  • Humidity
  • LUX
  • PM <10µm AQI
  • PM <2.5µm AQI
  • PM <1µm AQI
  • NOX
  • VOC

All integrate with Home Assistant via ESPHome.

All the details can be found at: https://nowsci.com/only-sensor/

 

Had this user try to do a PR on my webbian project in hopes of an auto-accept. They literally have a repo called virus. Reported, of course, but found it funny.

 

Because they couldn't. He bought the bag before they automatically tracked all purchasers with a unique ID on the bags they sell. The CEO of PD actively called the tip line.

Release: Custom Pegboard Organizers (lemmy-ui.nowsci.com:33443)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I've been custom designing pegboard inserts for all of my workshop items to clean things up. Figured since I release most of the things I create to various communities, these should be no different ;)

$345 to tap Attend. A rediculous event on a local hiking group. We think the owners let it expire, and someone else bought up the group.

For those not aware, Meetup's leadership has been pushing the "start a business on Meetup" agenda. It's all downhill from here.

There's a part as a sniper, I think, and maybe it was third person mostly? The name was initials that remind me of XKCD, like that sound, but probably 3 letters. And I feel like the character wore white cloths. PC game. This is a stretch.
