In the real world, the only thing better than perfect is standardized.

Enrico Weigelt. He's also an anti-vaxxer moron. To quote his own words on the LKML: https://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/2106.1/04542.html

And I know a lot of people who will never take part in this generic human experiment that basically creates a new humanoid race (people who generate and exhaust the toxic spike proteine, whose gene sequence doesn't look quote natural). I'm one of them, as my whole family.

So yes, sure, nobody can stop people that think the pandemic is over ("we are vaccinated") from meeting in person.

Pandemic ? Did anybody look at the actual scientific data instead of just watching corporate tv ? #faucigate

The only benefit I see in Xlibre is that it will attract idiots like him and and draw them away from projects with real merit.

Only KDE calls it "meta". Everywhere else it's either "super" or "mod4". The left Alt is sometimes called "meta" or "mod1".

They should sponsor HGL. No need to reinvent the wheel, and the project could always use the money and fame.

Fun fact: C:\: is a perfectly valid NTFS path. Windows won't let you create it, though, because Windows doesn't even fully support the NTFS specification. That's why you have to specify the windows_names option when mounting an NTFS filesystem on Linux.

Rotating shifts are lovely. I used to work in a factory for 3 years that did weekly day/night/afternoon shifts. Living in perpetual jet lag did fucking wonders to my circadian rhythm and blood pressure. The pay was amazing, but not BP over 200 and falling asleep at the wheel amazing.

Fuck that. The morons who scream WOOOOKE at everything they don't like that doesn't fully cater to their worldviews are part of the reason why those shows and movies suck. Blaming bad writing on any kind of agenda is giving the writers and showrunners an undeserved scapegoat.

Yes, the latter seasons of Doctor Who were an atrocity, but it's not because of the Doctor's female incarnations (although the retcon itself is still horrid), it's because Chris Chibnall is a fucking terrible showrunner and dogshit writer that makes even Moffatt's writing look positively adequate. Fuck you, Chris.

The most straight-forward method would be to buy a standalone switch. I have a TP-LINK TL-SG108 8-port gigabit switch and it seems to retain the ARP table indefinitely.

My previous solution was an ESP32 board with an SSH server and a relay, wired parallel with the power switch, that would be closed by an output pin on command.

You can't ignore the Bongo Man!

I have strictly limited overtime with high bonuses and mandatory rest days, afternoon/night shift bonuses, 20 days minimum fully paid vacation, fully paid maternity leave, fully paid sick leave, healthcare paid through taxes, all written into law. Feels nice to live in a place where workers have rights. Sometimes I don't even know what to do with all this legally mandated freedom. Anyway, how's that deregulation going, America?

It's called "hair space". Unicode U+200A. The best/worst kind of whitespace.

How much experience do you have with networking, exactly?

The DNS record points to a private IPv4 address (10.0.0.41), which cannot be accessed from the internet for multiple reasons; first of which is that it's almost certainly behind a NAT gateway.

Your internet provider has given you a single publicly routable IPv4 address and assigned it to the WAN interface on your modem or router. If you want to access a host on the LAN, you'll first have to configure port mapping or port forwarding on the router. Then you'll have to open holes in your firewall and accept the fact that every bad actor will try to break into that host unless you know how to set up network security.

That is a magnificently executed thought-terminating cliché, but if I may offer a rebuttal: nuh-uh!

Better out-of-the-box hardware support, in my experience. We have a machine learning server at work, it didn't see the GPUs on Debian Bullseye with the driver versions specified by the manufacturer, but worked perfectly with Ubuntu Server out of the box.

A distribution that is preconfigured by professionals has great value in a practical setting, even if that value has diminished in the eyes of the kind of person that Lemmy attracts. If I had tried to get Debian working by overruling the manufacturer's instructions, I'd have to take responsibility for it, both its maintenance and the downtime and potential damage if I had fucked something up. With Ubuntu, I get to delegate at least part of the responsibility to Canonical (while covering my own ass), and that's something you can't backport.

It's not about saving ten seconds of typing. It's about supporting OP's claim with credible sources. And I have to stress credible because mainstream journalism has a tendency to turn unverified or downright false claims into a woozle.

For the former, I don’t know where to take the tray and cutlery, how to choose food, where to return plates + cutlery, in which order to do the first 2, and I didn’t yet really get to observe people.

I felt that. I have a debilitating fear of social interactions where I don't know the correct way to act ahead of time. Having to consciously parse and adapt to what other people are doing, in real time, is my idea of hell.

Society needs a manpage.

What can you say about Carlton? He was Carlton.

Linux has two different kinds of "used" memory. One is memory allocated for/by running processes that cannot be reclaimed or reallocated to another process. This memory is unavailable. The other kind is memory used for caching (ZFS, write-back cache, etc) that can be reclaimed and allocated for other things as needed. Memory that is not allocated in any way is free. Memory that is either free or allocated to cache is available.

It looks like htop only shows unavailable memory as "used", while proxmox shows the sum of unavailable and cached memory. Proxmox "uses" 11 GB, but it's not running out of memory because most of it is "available".

Is this like a beanie babies reboot?

In his newest (and worst) How Do You Do Fellow Kids moment, Mark Zuckerberg launches the Poob service, accessible exclusively through the Metaverse. What does it do? Fucked if we know.
