Marketing email's subject made me think my card got hacked (lemmy.world)

A hostel company I stayed with a while back emailed me with the subject: “Your booking is confirmed!”. This made me frantically check all my accounts since I hadn’t booked any hostels recently. I was super concerned until I opened the email and saw… it was a stupid marketing email…...

If he has unlimited he could use SimpleLogin aliases in the future

Should I move to Docker?

I’m a retired Unix admin. It was my job from the early '90s until the mid '10s. I’ve kept somewhat current ever since by running various machines at home. So far I’ve managed to avoid using Docker at home even though I have a decent understanding of how it works - I stopped being a sysadmin in the mid '10s, I still worked...

twei ,

If you update your OS, it could happen that a changed dependency breaks your app. This wouldn’t happen with docker, as every dependency is shipped with the application in the container.

twei ,

I’m sorry, Dave

twei ,

I guess you could also Mount a tmpfs to that directory

I hate the company but I haven’t found another streaming service with a similar amount of music, sound quality and algorithm. I have a jellyfin instance, but it lacks the choice and algorithm.

Edit: I am currently in the process of switching to Tidal. It has pretty much all the niche artists that I usually listen to, the algo is pretty good (at least thats what other ppl say), the audio quality is very good and it has a really nice UI. Also, it pays Artists twice as much as Spotify.
It doesn’t have a native App for Linux, but there is github.com/Mastermindzh/tidal-hifi, which is an electron wrapper for the web-ui that is also available via Flatpak and works well so far.

Only one room? Pathetic

that’s what I see

Codeberg is awesome, it’s just like github but open source and self-hostable (forgejo)

Is this really a major story?

No, it’s a Mayor story

…like the Seine

twei ,

That’s the neat part: you don’t have to take the icky parts. Just use artix instead of arch to not use systemd

twei ,

Could’ve just run a benchmark or mine monero or something… A Minecraft server is arguably one of the worst ways to test performance

twei ,

Well then don’t click this (nsfw i guess)

twei ,

Debain on servers because it just works.
Arch on desktops because you got basically every software package you’d ever need in the AUR and it’s somewhat stable.

Wait until you hear about Biebian

You just finished setting up all your services and it works fine - how do you now prepare for eventual drive failure? (kbin.social)

I know that for data storage the best bet is a NAS and RAID1 or something in that vein, but what about all the docker containers you are running, carefully configured services on your rpi, installed *arr services on your PC, etc.?...

twei ,

You should get another node, otherwise when node1 fails node2 will reboot itself and then do nothing because it has no quorum

twei ,

I know, but every time I had to do that it felt like it’s a jank solution. If you have a raspberry pi or smth like that you can also set it up as a qdevice.

…and if you’re completely fine with how it is you can also just leave it like it is

twei ,

If you need another thing to do, you could try to make your opnsense HA and never have your internet stop working while rebooting a node. It’s pretty simple to set up, you might finish it in 1-2 evenings. Happy clustering!

that battery is way too big for the energy produced by the solar array

fun fact: it’s not! like so much not, that the first planned small nuclear reactor plan in the US has been canceled

are you trying to say that this is a bad thing?

twei ,

yes, we are quite good at funding foss

git gud. HA, GOTTEM

Doesn’t Firefox use GCM? I think fdroid doesn’t allow apps that use that

You forgot that only a good guy with a gun-safe filled with AR-15s can stop a bad guy with a glock

I just read that as “socks”, which made the last sentence really weird

How I messed up by accidentally replaying all my keystrokes from the last few days (github.com)

After getting a comment from the creator of kanata (an awesome piece of software by the way) that he found my story amusing, I figured that I’d also post it here, partly as fun, partly as a cautionary tale. Also, I’d appreciate any tips as to what to check for in my system, it’s a weird feeling to know that some stuff...

How Ubuntu Linux snuck into high-end Dell laptops (and why it's called 'Project Sputnik') (www.zdnet.com)

Today, the Dell XPS-13 with Ubuntu Linux is easily the most well-known Linux laptop. Many users, especially developers – including Linus Torvalds – love it. As Torvalds recently said, “Normally, I wouldn’t name names, but I’m making an exception for the XPS 13 just because I liked it so much that I also ended up buying...

twei ,

Dell - best known for good-quality mass-produced PCs -

I’d disagree with the “good-quality” part, but they certainly are mass-produced

twei ,

I hope nothing happens to his tires

twei ,

But what if I want to snort Wiesnkoks off of a dick?

twei ,

Switch to SearxNG instead

twei ,

adafruit is using cloudflare and it automatically loads stuff from paypal, amazon and cloudfront. it will also ship your stuff using dhl, ups etc.

would you say that you trust all of those companies with your (meta)data? if yes, reCAPTCHA won’t make a difference. although i do agree that everyone should use hCaptcha

twei ,

So it’s clearly a skill issue you say?

twei ,

Yeah I love moving my finger away from the middle of the touchpad and down to the clicky-thingy just to then move it back to the middle of the touchpad. I think tap-to-click is just faster while having no real disadvantages

twei ,

Oh I thought you meant separate mouse-buttons. I still think tap-to-click is superior, but as always: if you like to click then go and configure your system to click

twei ,

This is the result of company greed

Packets of Soy-Sauce

what is overrated about them?

twei ,

Okay, but what is “overrated” about them? I don’t like Ubuntu either, but I don’t think it’s overrated. It just is where it is

twei ,

If you’re arguing for ease of use: they’re pretty much on a par with each other. If you’re arguing for ease of software installation I’d prefer Ubuntu over fedora, as Ubuntu is still the first linux distro any proprietary software company will port their software to (even though it’s gotten better over the last few years), which is probably the only thing the average user cares about: does my software run or not?

twei ,

valid, but i kinda want a place for my arm to rest while driving

twei ,

or even an EQE

the front just doesn’t look good imo. they just replaced the… grill? (idk what you call that) with a flat piece of carbon instead of just
a) removing that part of the design (like tesla did with the model 3) or
b) putting a fake-grill on the front

it looks okay otherwise, so i guess if you want to you could also just replace that plate with a grill
