Venomous sea snakes are, on a whole, ridiculously more venomous than venomous land snakes. As far I as recall.

Like the very venomous coral snake:

New World coral snakes possess one of the most potent venoms of any North American snake. However, relatively few bites are recorded due to their reclusive nature and the fact they generally inhabit sparsely populated areas. Even in areas that are densely populated, bites are rare.

Also not to be confused with the non-venomous king snake:

Two photos of snakes placed side by side. On the left is the coral snake who has stripes in a black pattern of black, yellow, red, yellow - with the yellow being small bands compared to the other colors. On the right is a king snake who has stripes in a pattern of red, black, yellow or off white, black - with the red parts being much larger than the other two colors.

@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

I can’t remember the last time I had to replace an LED. You may need to check wiring and voltages.

perviouslyiner ,

and temperature.

Wanderer ,

I remember when I was running the numbers for my dads house. I asked him how often he changes a lightbulb. I worked out it was cost effective to change the light bulb based on replacement alone before I even got to the electricity cost.

I honestly don’t think I have ever replaced a LED.

matejc , to linux in Need an RDP client compatible with AVD

Freerdp 3.x has this support. I have been using it half a year back for this very purpose. Ask for help on :matrix.org they are very helpful

matejc ,

My example:

xfreerdp “$RDPW_FILE” /u:“$RDP_USERNAME” /p:“$RDP_PASSWORD” /sec:nla /cert:ignore +clipboard /multimon /monitors:0 /gateway:type:arm /network:auto /gfx:AVC444 /rfx /dynamic-resolution

Keep in mind that I was using for accessing Windows machine… Some flags might need to be a bit different

cizra ,

Where’d you get the .rdp file? I can’t find a way to get a working version of mine.

pathief OP ,
@pathief@lemmy.world avatar

Here’s how I got mine:

  1. Go to the web version: client.wvd.microsoft.com/arm/…/index.html

    • You should have a list of machines, in my case I only have one
  2. In the top right corner, click on the settings icon (cog)

  3. Under “Resources Launch Method”, select the `Download the rdp file" radio option

  4. Click whatever machine you want to access

  5. The file started to download

cizra ,

Lovely. Thanks! Now to figure out how to redirect that YubiKey USB device, so I could use Passkey auth…

This worked perfectly, thank you so much. Now let’s check if I can add some port forwarding through this…

In arch it’s xfreerdp3, just in case anyone needs it.

IsoKiero , to selfhosted in [Question] Translating public DNS to internal DNS without revealing the internal DNS

That’s not how DNS works. If you publicly query tfk.example.com it’ll reply with a records associated to that entry and that’s it. The client then attempts to connect to those IP addresses and no further DNS queries are made (assuming there’s no CNAME records). If you want to use DNS for that then you’ll need to add entries directly to tfk.example.com which point to your internal addresses.

So, you need to change tfk.example.com records whenever IP addresses change, most likely via some kind of API to automate things, assuming you don’t directly control name servers for tfk.example.com by yourself.

But, as you’re running a proxy anyways it doesn’t reveal internal addresses and the client needs only public addresses to connect into. I haven’t heard about traefik before, so I don’t have a clue on how it works, but ‘traditional’ proxies effectively hide everything on the ‘LAN’ side. (Yes, I know, it’s not necessarily/strictly speaking LAN).

freddo OP ,
@freddo@feddit.nu avatar

I’m aware that this isn’t how DNS works, but I’d imagine it is possible to have a DNS server that when it receives a query from the internet looks at the requested domain and translates it to an internal domain and in turn query that one, returning the result without revealing the internal domain. Something like a ALIAS virtual record provided by some services (but wont work against a internal DNS).

As for Traefik acting as a reverse proxy for internal network addresses, yeah that’s the way it works. However in this case I have several instances of Traefik running on a subset of IP-addresses on a public subnet. So essentially we want to loadbalance several Traefik loadbalancers using DNS.

IsoKiero ,

Apparently you can kind-of rewrite queries on the fly with PowerDNS scripting and answer accordingly. So maybe that’s what you’re looking for.

yesman , to selfhosted in Uses for local AI?

Think of LLMs like a stupid office worker. You wouldn’t rely on them to make critical decisions, but they’re valuable for tedious stuff.

For example, my calendar changed the way to enter new events breaking my workflow. Now I just type out a skeletal schedule and have LLM convert that into a .csv that I import.

I’m thinking of Ripping my CD collection again. I’m researching a way to use a LLM to tidy up the metadata.

I had a folder full of random stuff I’ve saved for years. Had a LLM organize and categorize it for me. I had to tweak the prompt enough that this was a medium difficulty task, but still way easier than doing it manually.

Nextcloud Recognize is supposed to do that, but I haven’t tried it. You might try looking down that road.

Last update was 4 years ago but will give it a try this weekend.

Can you share some info on how you did that folder organization? Did you provide the AI with a list of files?

Nomad , to nostupidquestions in Help me understand littering

Common reasons for littering are:

  • unavailability of trash cans (in a convenient distance)
  • inability to pay for trash disposal (this includes transport of heavy items or a large quantity of)
  • creation of jobs associated with trash removal (often including arguments that tax payers fund those jobs and as a taxpayer it’s their right to litter)

Exaggerated are these issues by low social education fueling short sightedness (“out of view out of mind”). So people lacking the understanding that somebody has to pay for removal of that waste.

wesker , to nostupidquestions in Help me understand littering
@wesker@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

There’s no “justification.” It’s laziness first and foremost. It is sometimes influenced by logistics, such as no trash recepticals being available. But that’s still zero excuse, really.

The only time littering might be in any way shape or form understandable, it’d actually probably be called illegal dumping. If you’re so poor you can’t afford trash removal, you might end up resorting to illegal dumping. But again, much different than petty littering.

Thorny_Insight OP ,

no trash recepticals being available

This is somewhat understandable if it’s something dirty like a meat packaging dripping with marinade that you don’t want to put in your bag but it almost never is. It’s a bottle, candy wrappings, juice container, chip bag etc. It was assumeably filled with something when they brought it in but they somehow can’t take it back now that it’s empty and thus lighter and packs into smaller space. This doesn’t make any sense to me.

illi ,

It’s lazyness, most likely combined by the person just not caring about their environment (be it their surroundings, incluidng other people who have to live with the litter around them, or the environment). Most often than not it’s less intelligent people or people who don’t know better (like kids).

Test the usbc charging on all ports. Test the battery. Good devices otherwise.

Install the Lenovo testing software, it should have a battery test.

Also the commercial vantage software to keep it updated and access some settings.

Plug the charger in to each port and confirm it charges.

I can only ask the shop to show me the results as it’s an online-only store.

I can use it, just not very efficiently.

Ideally, I can set port forwards/tunnels so that I can then work from my machine’s terminal.

Pyr_Pressure , to nostupidquestions in What is the secret to making LED light bulbs last as long as the package says?

Never buy fixtures with irreplaceable built in LEDs, they’re mostly a scam to get people to buy a $50 fixture instead of a $30 fixture and a $5 bulb.

Also LED bulbs, the light emitting portion (light emitting diode, LED) is just a small part of the actual “bulb”. LED bulbs also have lots of little circuitry components which are typically what dies first. The actual LED is unlikely to fail, but the circuitry can easily get burnt out in cheap bulbs.

Don’t get the cheapest ones that you can find.

Don’t put them in airtight enclosures (i.e. those old nipple lights)

Dont turn them on and off constantly. You’re not using much energy, it’s fine to them on for a bit. They more they turn on and off the faster they will fail.

frezik ,

Built-in fixtures usually work better. It avoids having to cram power supply components into a small, hot space.

Kelly , to nostupidquestions in In January, is it winter in Australia?

And given that, most of the population lives in northern hemisphere, is there a body of dad jokes and culture tropes related to the fact that “we’re different”, or is it just too cringe and boring.

Nothing anyone wound mention but there are some ironic Christmas clothing like a shirt with Father Christmas with sunglasses and cooking a barbeque, or a rashie with a knitted sweater pattern.

We are also aware that if a foreign studio announces a game or movie with a season for their release window they probably mean the northern season. Our studios tend to just use a month instead.

I choose to believe it’s mostly accidental. Either it fell out of a trashcan while the truck was doing pick ups or sucked out of a car window before the driver could catch it. Or any other number of circumstances that probably happened to us in one point it time.

Obviously that’s not always the case but there’s no point in my getting angry at imaginary people about it.
