Primitive ftpd from fdroid is my go-to “too lazy to configure a cloud thing” solution. It is fast and just works.

I can hear its warcry in every panel. Convincing arguments. m.youtube.com/watch?v=cBkWhkAZ9ds

Because at the same time plasma succeded kwin and dolphin konqueror, the kool naming scheme became optional. The snipping tool used to be Ksnapshot, which was at least obvious naming in what it did.

eldain ,

I don’t like this word either, selective screenshot or sth…

A) So is Celsius, you do everything in double digits until you turn on your oven.

B) If 50F was actually room temperature (the middle of too hot and too cold), I could agree. The fact that is is not means for me the intuition is learned and not natural. And that I have to learn a few anchorpoints to convert my own intuition when I ever visit the US.

Do a pacman -Syyu before you continue.

eldain ,

A locked bootloader is all they need to lock you out for “a uniform experience and support across all devices”. That freedom to install whatever is not a given.

eldain ,

This happened to me when my language settings weren’t set. You can’t even access them in jerboa, log in with a browser and check if English is selected besides default. And whatever else you wish to see.

eldain ,

I would conclude from this that your dc-dc converter is out of whack and only works stable enough for a small range of input voltages. This hardware issue might require a hardware fix at a repair shop :/

eldain ,

Would you notice if it doesn’t? The screen flickering is obvious, what if your ram and ssd flicker, too? You can tinker with that laptop and try to reduce 3.3 or 5v power rail load with kernel flags, but until someone checks those power rails electrically I wouldn’t trust that laptop to be reliable for anything but a tinkering exercise. We sadly don’t get redundant power IC’s you could switch to, but the failure is common and the involved parts cheap. I wish competent repair shops were more common.

Untrue, the Zenfone 9 is also getting android 14, that may be it’s last major update. Zenf10 should be set for android 15 as well. Zenf8 is on adroid 13 and got a security update in october, so things are looking decent imho.

eldain ,

No feature fomo for old phones, as long as the thing you are used to stays secure ¯_(ツ)_/¯

eldain ,

Ah that sucks, I started with the zenfone 8 and seeing the market and how much I use my headphone jack, I sincerely hope Asus gets their update act together before I need to upgrade. What did you switch to?

eldain ,

Make sure you have both your nvidia drivers and vulkan installed. Your errors point to a missing vulkan.

I’m impressed they could get their momentum going for so long, they were able to burn so much money and only now are investors pulling out? That was a serious hype train! Even if it was meant as lobby sponsoring against standard high speed rail, holy cow what a waste!

eldain ,

Inviting friends over for tea is great, can recommend.

eldain ,

if your layout is part of the keymaps (/usr/share/kbd/keymaps depending on distro) you can load it with ‘sudo loadkeys -u awesomelayout’ and make it permanent with ‘localectl’ except on debian and heirs. There it would be ‘sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration’

eldain ,

If they weren’t communicating at my wavelength anyway, it wouldn’t have lead to anything 🤷‍♂️ Natural preselection.

eldain ,

Any of them would be scary controlling train tickets, freaking wizards changing careers.

eldain ,

The above album is on youtube music, too.

eldain ,

I always envision this whenever I see reality TV.

If you consider the human brain works in 90 min chunks for most things including sleeping, that is completely within spec. For another chunk of sleep, you need to go to bed 60-80 min earlier.

It’s a medical device, you can lay on it or have it inserted for an even stronger application.

Time for a 10 minute mail and 123456 as a password. Take that bullshit website!

eldain ,

What a stupid example. Nurses and equipment are expensive, and get repaid in patients per hour. They would rather make money with your presence in the hallways and waiting rooms, and could route you/keep you waiting to optimize for capacity and profit.

Better example would be the app controlled washing machine that tortures you into subscription with ads. Or vacuum. Or freaking light switch: I’ll turn on the light after this message from…

eldain ,

But if they can ask 5 patients for 47000 instead of 4, profits still go up, don’t they?

eldain ,

Where are these Memes you are talking about? I only saw the sturgeon’off one. Am I bamboozled?

eldain ,

I can see 1 meme per week when I go there, is at possible feddit.de is defed from feddit.nl or something? Any inside info I can’t see from my end?

feddit.nl/c/[email protected] seems to work, maybe its jerboa… wtf

eldain ,

Language settings, not yet in jerboa and stupid.

eldain ,

It was my language settings, German was turned off and therefore filtered out. You can not change or access them in the app interface hence my extra confusion besides this stupid way of handling language.

eldain ,

Wow, the 4 regrettable shits. I can hear the sound of each of them. The warcries, the tears, the battlehorns; echoing through the stalls. The cheers of bystanders, united in awe and terror. The face of the warrior rising from the throne, blood-red and drenched in sweat.

eldain ,

Thank you for your rant.

To add: Your SO is not a replacement for a social network. Don’t hunt for the one, place people you click with at all distance levels as you get to know them. A healthy social network leads to healthy relationships.

eldain ,

I check for every game if I can get it on gog.com instead before I buy on steam, except if multiplayer would lock me into my gog friendlist. There’s some surprising stuff over there, not only ancient games.

eldain ,

What a fool you are. I have moral superiority. How can you win an argument against that? What a grand and intoxicating innocence. How could you be so naive? There is no escape. No Recall or Intervention can work against me. Come. Lay down your opinions. It is not too late for my mercy.

eldain ,

I like it. You can rent a parking spot in central Amsterdam for the same price, this is more value and utility for the money.

eldain ,

Making the best out of a bad situation doesn’t necessarily change the future.

eldain ,

Alright, this is an obvious copy of a japanese box hotel, even the prices are the same with ~25 dollars at night. What I don’t like about it are the non isolated rooms, a silent and save nights rest is not too much to ask. What I do like is the community living, have your own space and share some facilities and appliances. Could save a lot of energy, materials and combat loneliness. I’d love to see appartement blocks where entire floors are living groups where you apply to check if you get along with these people and rent a room. Like a student housing for adults.

eldain ,

Hot unions in your area would like to meet you.

The OS_prober feature is disabled by default in GRUB 2.06, which is the version included in Ubuntu 22.04. This is an upstream change designed to counter potential security issues with the OS-detecting feature (it mounts partitions to check for other OSes, this could be taken advantage of, etc).

That’s why. You need to enable the os_prober in your grub settings manually or put your windows line in /etc/default/grub or so.

eldain ,

Check your boot order in uefi, if grub is not in there, it’s evivars got deleted by a bios update, which can happen in windows depending on your motherboard vendor.

Some live usbs (I know manjaro’s does) present you the option to boot from disk, so you can get into your system without chrooting and reinstall grub + evivars.

eldain ,

You’re welcome, I’m happy to point out the correct term to search for.

If you don’t want to take care of stuff like this, you can choose a distro like Mint that would be more sensitive to shield their users from changes like this. There is plenty to learn and tinker without having to follow upstream news that could break your system.

eldain ,

Mettwurst, pickles and salami are part of my eating habits I exported. Getting good sauerkraut is difficult even in Germany, it’s all just the cheap vinegar stuff instead of lactaid acid.

eldain ,

Only one more ! at the start. ! [ alt text ] ( image )

Your link does not point to an image file, though.

It wasn’t build to consume pure fats either. A healthy mix of complex carbs, protein and fats release energy over a long period of time and satiate the stomach. Cutting sugar, sweeteners and fatty snacks does a lot to fix addictive food behaviour, but it’s hard.

Fun fact, all your body fat you want to get rid of has to leave through your breath.

eldain ,

I’m more worried to overdo in the fat departement when eating in a restaurant. Fries, greasy salads, when I and my digestion would much prefer rice/boiled potatoes and green beans with the fat steak. Calories per volume would be lower, too.
