Gonna recommend this to all my co workers.

It is not vulnerable to Windows viruses.

:-)

BOFH666 ,

Yes, physically getting bigger.

Dell XPS had a batch laptops going crazy and pushing the touchpad up.

You will recognize it :-)

BOFH666 ,

This.

Using a CEC link will make things even more simple, but that might involve additional hardware. Those raspberry thingies have native CEC on hdmi. For x86 you might have to look at some extra hardware.

And of course, Kodi is an example of a 10 foot interface.

Used NetApp 6TB SAS for 38€???

I’ve found these NetApp SAS Festplatte 6TB 7,2k SAS 12G 3,5" - 111-02374 E-X4064A-R6 ST6000NM0034, that cost only 38€! It’s a brand that I’ve never heard about and I’ve no idea how many hours they’ve worked (I’ve asked and I’m waiting for an answer). What do you think?...

BOFH666 ,

NetApp makes storage devices, just like Dell’s DataDomain.

Looks like the ad is referring to a ST6000NM0034, a drive from Seagate. Personally, I like to stay away from that brand as far as possible.

Have had good experiences with WD.

BOFH666 ,

Thanks for the pointer.

This is really huge, but people don’t quite understand that yet.

If this wasn’t caught, every system -running public sshd- could be hacked or abused/misused.

And I completely agree with the last words, corporate should pay foss projects!

Vlans firewall rules and something to route between the different networks.

This can all be achieved with pretty much every Linux installation.

Easydns.ca, no privacy issues. Nothing about me personally in the who’s db (.net tld)

BOFH666 OP ,

You got me there… :-)

BOFH666 OP ,

Exactly this. Foolish ideas from someone behind a desk.

Nerds and hackers will win this easily.

Whats your thoughts on Ai in your terminal? (www.warp.dev)

Today i was doing the daily ritual of looking at distrowatch. Todays reveiw section was about a termal called warp, it has built in AI for recomendations and correction for commands (like zhs and nushell). You can also as a chatbot for help. I think its a neat conscept however the security is what makes me a bit skittish. They...

BOFH666 ,

Totally agree. People using cli are probably more skilled and their knowledge has been fed into these ai models.

So we will all end up with some mediocre level of knowledge, because the next input for the LLM 's will be more of the some old stuff. Flattening the curve and less innovation and smart ideas.

These kind of “solutions” are for a non existing problem. Looking at the investors, this is only about making money.

This 'lil CLI application WILL change your life! (You don't have to be a programmer to use it, it's for everyone)

I know this is Wendy’s goddamit. I have made a Markdown pager and I’m currently busy with my other stuff such as my compiler, but I will add more features to it soon. I did not put much time on it and there was not much of fanfare for this, although what fare could be? I spent 5 days making an application that is only useful...

How does this handle files with long lines (width) and/or long paragraphs (height)?

Reason for asking: MDP was always complaining about files or terminal size. A properly working alternative would be great.

Tia

BOFH666 ,

Alright, MDP just aborts and complaints about the terminal size.

Will take a look at this, thanks for your work!

Stop using gitlab.com for projects - Credit card info required for new registrations

If your IP (and possible your browser) looks “suspicious” or has been used by other users before, you need to add additional information for registration on gitlab.com, which includes your mobile phone number and possibly credit card information. Since it is not possible to contribute or even report issues on open source...

Forgejo ftw!

Self hosting here, also with runners to create a complete ci/cd line.

BOFH666 ,

Absolutely!

Running local, self hosted forgejo with a few runners.

Now my code is neatly checked with pre-commit and linters, build when new tags are pushed, renovate is scheduled every 24 hours to check for new releases of stuff etc.

Just a few containers and a happy user :-)

BOFH666 ,

Still testing and fiddling, but I’m using the forgejo-runner. Renovate is just another repository, with a workflow to get it started:


<span style="color:#323232;">on:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  schedule:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    - cron: '5 2 * * *'
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    - cron: '5 14 * * *'
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">jobs:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  build:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    runs-on: docker
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    container:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">      image: renovate/renovate:37.140-full
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    steps:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">      - name: Checkout
</span><span style="color:#323232;">        uses: actions/checkout@v3
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">      - name: Run renovate
</span><span style="color:#323232;">        env:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">          PAT: ${{ secrets.PAT }}
</span><span style="color:#323232;">          GITHUB_COM_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB }}
</span><span style="color:#323232;">        run: |
</span><span style="color:#323232;">          echo "Running renovate"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">          cd ${GITHUB_WORKSPACE}
</span><span style="color:#323232;">          renovate --token ${PAT}          
</span>

The renovate image has been pulled by hand and the forgejo-runner will happily start the image. Both PAT and GITHUB secrets are configured as ‘action secrets’ within the renovate repository.

Besides the workflow, the repository contains renovate.json and config.js, so renovate has the correct configuration.

Cars. Either entertainment system or navigation or more…

BMW has quite the list of licences for opensource libraries and Linux in the about section of the car-menu.

And more and more network equipment.

Alternative github frontends?

Github has become more bloated, slower and more user-hostile with each update (just like all other big corp platforms). SPA navigation slow like hell, the “new” file viewer/browser is hardly usable in my opinion, code search does not work without login, etc. So are there any good alternative FE where the following work (read...

BOFH666 ,

In run a personal instance of forgejo, love it.

Everything I want regarding version control and workers. And more lightweight on the frontend side.

forgejo.org

BOFH666 ,

I compliment you for your knowledge 😊

LMGTFY

Use zip, rar or other tooling to split it into parts and reassemble on the destination.

Or use another filesystem, compatible with both targets.

BOFH666 ,

Thank you for this. Now I have a clue, why I sometimes have these odd red patches on my hand.

Will us gloves from now on.

BOFH666 ,

Noticed someone mentioning this (the product ) last weekend and did a next-next-finish install on some old hardware.

This is really nice, got me some nice actions running already.

I used to build locally and use git, cgit and Trac, but will probably move everything to forgejo.

BOFH666 ,

No HACS support out of the box. (HA as docker)

The only use for RPI is kodi and Mainsail for the printer. All of them boot from NFS, so no storage issues. Everything else is x86-64 or docker containers on those Intel/amd machines.

BOFH666 ,

They should call doppelmayr and get some proper hardware installed… every single ski lift in Austria is better equipped…
