Yes. This is home-made out-of-band management, like HP’s iLO, Dell’s iDRAC, or generic IPMI. Not only is it a virtual KVM (keyboard/video/mouse), you can pass the host’s power button through this device so you can remotely power on or reset a hung or powered-off system, or mount and boot from a virtual floppy or ISO to completely reinstall the remote system.

I wish! I’ve got the hardware to support it, but neither of the two ISPs available at my house support IPv6.

Oh yeah, I’m also keeping a eye on that. Every time I see nvidia pop up in my updates, I try logging into Wayland and doing my usual tasks. If it starts working, that’ll just let me extend the life of this card. I’ll probably still strongly consider switching flavors with my next card.

This won’t be the year of the Wayland desktop for me unless I can afford to replace my Nvidia card this year. I’ll never buy one again, but I’ve still gotta suffer with the one I have a bit longer.

btw

Domain naming authorities require identification for the registration of domains. You cannot purchase domains anonymously. You can pay Njalla and they own the domain, and they’ll tell you that you can control it, but you have no rights to it in any kind of dispute.

I’ve been running a script every 60 seconds for 2 months now as a cron job and it still hasn’t been able to create a VM in their US datacenter. I just have a log full of “insufficient host capacity” errors.

That sounds suspiciously like scoop.sh would be downloading the program from the internet, and a wise person once told me “Don’t download programs off the internet.” Not today, Satan!

Dicking deeper means something entirely different from digging deeper.

You may find some stores in some places that will take this stuff, but as far as I know this is not commonplace in much of North America.

Every single lowes or home depot has a recycling station for batteries and CFL bulbs at the entrance or near the customer service desk. I assume those stores are all over the country.

I edit everything in my local copy of the repository and then push the changes to my devices with ansible.

Thank you. As much as I want more info, there’s literally nothing to discuss unless they bring hard evidence.

Same way.

Yeah, I get that. I treated my reddit account like that. My reddit account was 15 years old and you can do some sleuthing and doxxing and track down my real name if you’re persistent enough. Nowadays I value privacy a bit more, so I just save important stuff to my second brain (these days it’s in Obsidian.md, but I’m not married to a specific app).

Karma is nothing more than fake internet points. When I tire of this persona or decide I’d rather make my home on another instance, I’ll just spin up a new name wholly unrelated to the old name.

xjack is one of my all-time favorite programs.

Lemmy is filled with leftists and geeks. They’re the same demographic.

I only back up things that would make me sad if I lost it or cause me a lot of time-sensitive work. Personal data files and configuration files. Media? I wouldn’t sweat it if my media drive got corrupted by malware or a hack or a lightning strike. I’d just live with a smaller library until I get things re-download again. And I’d be ok if I can’t find a handful of the rarer things. Pictures of my family? Backed up locally and on a remote server with immutable backups. Configuration files? Synced with a remote git repository.

No it’s not true, it doesn’t suck, in fact it has improved the ergonomics a lot,

I’m missing something here. What does Mastodon have to do with ergonomics?

which is hard to do with suped-up autocomplete like ChatGPT at the moment.

You got a source for that, or is that just a gut feeling?
