Use WSL on the laptop for ssh, that’s actually a VM. VM separation should work correctly, or we have a much bigger problem. Just reset WSL, everything should be wiped related to the ssh sessions. Work IT would maybe allow that.

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
One of them is a laptop, why ssh to the server isn’t an option? Set up tmux on the server so it always connects to the same session, so you can just continue where you left last time. If you need desktop support, rdp in gnome works really well.
E.g if you connect with this command, and tmux is installed on the server, it will start a new session named “main”. If a session with that name exists it will connect to that:
ssh -t pi@192.168.1.2 tmux new-session -A -s mainAdd something to .bashrc on the server to always do the same if you work on that phisically:
if command -v tmux &> /dev/null && [ -n "$PS1" ] && [[ ! "$TERM" =~ screen ]] && [[ ! "$TERM" =~ tmux ]] && [ -z "$TMUX" ]; then tmux new-session fi
3·2 days agoWas it even a goal? Mastodon can be used for internal communication, e.g. https://social.kernel.org is only for linux developers, and I know a local university where they have a defederated mastodon instance where every student automatically got registered.
If they just needed it for posting news maybe simply having a profile on one of the big instances would be enough. I see they had only 270 users.
Is snapchat still a thing? Never used that but I thought from screenshots and memes that tiktok killed it (never used that either)
6·23 days agoIt’s the most common and most supported 3rd party Android rom:
Usually you can have 3 kind of rom for an android device:
- Default from manufactuerer: usually locked down, shitty default apps and preinstalled crapware, updates stop soon. Usually stable.
- Cooked/unofficial rom from xda or telegram: some script kiddy has the same phone as you and they share the rom they built from source. Hit or miss, sometimes very good, sometimes terrible. Updates stop when script kiddy gets a new phone.
- Official 3rd party rom, Lineage is the most common, Crdroid, Graphene, eos and other secure and special roms are in this category, but they support far less devices. Updates are automatic, built by a server every month. Someone have to set it up, so you still need someone interested about this in the community, and the manufacturer have to release drivers, firmware. (They should be legally, but noone cares) Usually that’s the best experience you can get on an Android device nowadays
You can still install android on them, BlissOs is a rom for x86 devices. Intel and amd gpu hw acceleration works ootb: https://docs.blissos.org/knowledgebase/frequently-asked-questions/hardware-compatibility/ If you just need for media consumption they are good, some apps don’t work as they only support arm cpus.
The reason is choice and support. On an arm android device you have to wait for the manufacturer for updates or to publish source, so someone can support the device for you. With x86 it’s just a normal, standard pc, you can do whatever you want.
It’s a strange diagram but shows what you have to know. If you ever seen different keyed m.2 cards, you should understand this. The important thing is the location of the keys, the notch. All m.2 cards has an ‘up’ and ‘down’ side, it shows only the ‘up’ side. You have to look inside the receptor to see the pins, that’s why it shows both sides, it’s not possible to see one side only on the receptor as they are in a plastic casing. Usually you can’t see the pins on the mobo, only the key.
You can see a similar diagram on wikipedia, both sides of receptor, top side of card:
The offset you were writing about doesn’t matter, it actually helps. You can’t accidentally insert the card upside down. The location of notches also help with this, as not all possible notches used yet, but in the future it could change.
These connectors are really small. The receptor is similar how sodimm connector works, but smaller. Are you also afraid about inserting a ram in an laptop? It’s basically the same.
Read more about the connector in wikipedia, I’m really happy this slowly replaces sata, msata, mpcie and even pcie in current pcs.
103·24 days agoIt’s important to note, that these things are designed for the average user. If you want to change the wifi password, you are by far not an average user. Most users just plugs in and never even think about that, and the number of that kind of users are several order of magnitude higher than the conscious ones. For them it’s much more secure to set a random pw. If you let them select a password they will choose
12345orpassword.If you know what you are doing usually it’s better to buy your own router where you can change everything the way you like.
You are right. The user you are replying to has no idea what they write about, as they confessed in another comment.
You seem to love spreading misinformation on the web. Why are you commenting 4 times if you are not familiar with the topic?
This is an m.2 connector. You have to secure it with a screw on the other side. It’s nearly impossible to mess it up.
Apple frequently uses proprietary connectors, I don’t know which one you are reffering to. I won’t guess because I’m not very familiar with all apple connectors.
You don’t have to comment on a topic if you are not familiar with. Please stop.
1·1 month agoBuy a better case for the mobo. I modded once an mITX motherboard to an ancient HP Proliant microserver case, it’s not that hard. Mobos like this doesn’t have standard screw distances, but you don’t have to secure all screws in a ghetto server. 2 screws and some padding is enough, with 3 screws you are overengineering.
It’s a Fujitsu W26361 There isn’t a lot of info about it on the net, all the links are rotten.
You have a sata port. You have to use an external power supply for that. Or maybe one of the pins next to it can supply the required voltage, you can use a multimeter to figure it out if you are brave. I guess the white one labeled PWR should be supply some volts. To be safe you can split the power of the other sata ssd or buy something like this:
You also have 2 an mPCIe or mSATA port. It’s impossible to tell the difference from a photo, because they use the same connector.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express#Mini-SATA_(mSATA)_variant
Without any more knowledge I would guess at least one of them is an mPCIe. Having 2 sata ports and an 2 mSATA next to it would be strange, they could use the mPCIe for a 3G modem or wifi, it would make more sense in a thin client like this.
If it’s an mPCIe you can buy a sata expansion there and even connect up to 4 sata drives. Looks like something like this:
You can convert it to normal PCIe or m.2, the possibilities are endless:
If it’s not mPCIe but mSATA, you can buy mSATA SSD there, they are really rare nowadays. Or you can buy an mSATA to SATA adapter:
8·1 month agoMy bank’s 2FA works only via their app or via SMS. For SMS I would have to pay per each received SMS.
The app perfectly works without safetynet, with microG, rooted with magisk but hidden by zygisk, so I’m lucky. At one update they added a popup at start after login about asking to add my card to Google Wallet (or whatever it’s called nowadays), and it’s not implemented in MicroG, so I can’t open it since that version. I just downgraded to the last working version and blacklisted its upgrades in Aurora, and I hope they won’t block my old version in the near future.
It’s a very progressive small local bank, I will contact them about this issue if they block my old version to make that dialog optional.
18 minutes video about how windows is bad, posted to literally the biggest linux circlejerk forum of the interwebs. Oh a misleading ad trying to sell the same thing as haveibeenpwned, classic.
Nowadays if someone is annoyed by these things can switch to Linux, nearly all games work ootb, hardware acceleration and drm is also working in browsers. For a home user, competitive gaming is the only thing which is not on par with windows.
For company environments where they use software which is windows only, group policy is there, sysadmins can lock down computers that it basically looks like a kiosk with only the few programs the employee need, no notifications, no ai bullshit, these annoyances only affect home users.
How do you make old people happy by messaging on signal? What makes a text based messenger “fun”?
I enjoy speaking with my friends on signal, because - you know - they are my friends.
My use case with stickers: when they were a new things, I saved like 3 packs, and I never felt the need to look for a new one.
About links: there are far better tools and services to store your bookmarks than a text messenger. Personally I use self hosted wallabag, but there are a lot others, and all web browsers has some bookmark feature, I don’t know why you want to store them in Signal.
The stickers are not in the app for privacy reason. This website is not run by the foundation, but by the community. Read more about how stickers work in the blog post: https://signal.org/blog/make-privacy-stick/
I think you have a preconception about what you want, maybe it’s discord, or I don’t know which service you think about as “ideal UX” or “for young people”. But if you start to think about that all that bells and whistles are actually just distractions. The only important thing in the long run will be communication, and Signal is good with that.
Why should a text messenger be fun? It’s a communication tool, not a game…
The stickers accessed via the sticker button left of the textbox. You can add stickers by going to https://signalstickers.org and click on add stickers. And you can add them some way if you receive a new one from a contact.
What is a list of links? Links you have sent/recieved previously?
Other free services I had good experiences with:
Caldav is a protocol to sync tasks and calendar events. Kanban is a way to sort/display tasks. The to things are orthogonal.
I used nextcloud deck, a kanban board. Lo and behold, it uses calendar tasks under the hood, and you can sync them with caldav. Obviously you loose some features from the kanban board, but it’s a perfect middleground if you are nit a heavy kanban user.
Early iOs and Android icons were one of the last offshoot of the style called “Frutiger Aero”
Flat icons don’t necessarily bad and undetailed, it’s just harder to create something more recogniseable with less tools, but I actually like the order, that they look like they are related to each other. Back in the day I created icon packs for the programs I used on pc, so my desktop would look clean and uniform.
Design styles are in a cycle, just wait some years and they will show up again, I’m sure. There is already some connection with the new style of windows 11.
