Wondering if anyone has a workaround to treat controller inputs as something that will keep the computer awake. I like to have my power settings set to timeout the screen after a short period of inactivity due to having an OLED laptop screen (minimize burn in). Problem is if I’m playing a game with a controller, it doesn’t...

“Deep Geological Nuclear Waste Storage As a Service”...

I was just scrolling through the megathread for untrusted websites and saw that yts.mx was untrusted? I’ve been using that website for YEARS. Am I fucked? I did a quick search in this community and saw posts mostly recommending the site, so does anyone know what’s going on? The reason listen for it’s untrustworthiness is...

This might not be the best place for this question but I honestly can’t think of another place, but if you know of one please let me know. But I figured someone here might have the experience I’m looking for....

I’m curious, how many people are aware of these sounds. I have designed, etched, and built my own switching power supplies along with winding my own transformers. I am aware of the source of the noise. So, does anyone else hear these high frequency sounds regularly?

We often get the same question with...

Good morning y’all, so I have a server pc that I’ve been slowly adding bits and pieces to for about a year now. It started off as a barebones board with a nvme on it, and has slowly developed into a Plex box and game server host box....

What storage software could I run to have an archive of my personal files (a couple TB of photos) that doesn’t require I keep a full local copy of all the data? I like the idea of a simple and focused tool like Syncthing, but they seem to be angling towards replication....

Hi everyone....

I would love to find the source material for the dialogue bits at the beginning of these two different songs, but repeated searches haven’t turned up anything for me on either of them,...

I can see some minor benefits - I use it for the odd bit of mundane writing and some of the image creation stuff is interesting, and I knew that a lot of people use it for coding etc - but mostly it seems to be about making more cash for corporations and stuffing the internet with bots and fake content. Am I missing something...

What are the pros and cons for desktops ? EDIT : Thanks all. I’ll try Silverblue, bazzite and more.

I might not deserve to say this, but I really wish Proxmox GmbH maintained an “official” terraform provider instead of relying on the community completely for it, à la Vates (XCP-ng). To be fair, it was the same with VMWare, so I’m not putting the blame on them....

And when you have a billion people doing this, that’s a lot of insanity. Like, world-spanning plague-level insanity.

I’m kinda a newbie to linux (…going on 20 years now, slow learner). I recently came across tldr and don’t know how I lived without it, because man pages can be a little much for a non technical person....

Hello selfhosted community, something weird just happened to my setup while running a routine update....

As title says I have a direct attached storage attached to a Linux machine (that used to be windows). Said raid system started as being called ./Raid and is now after 2 restarts of of the lap top it is now ./Raid2. Is there a way to make it not change names every time I do a restart. I did some looking online but don’t want to...

Basically title....

When installing the proprietary nvidia driver recommended by the the official debian page for Debian Bookwork, apt seems to want to install a new kernel. I actually did this before (since this is my second time installing debian on here) and this new kernel messes with the display server somehow, disabeling all monitors but one,...
