Wireless devices let me use 2 different tables and an armchair+TV. That would simply not be an option otherwise.

The benefits of going wireless vastly outweigh an occasional connection annoyance to me. And worst case I can still plug them in.

I use rustdesk for remote desktop. Screen sharing is usually on zoom as it’s what my workplace uses.

Physical connectivity comes courtesy from an RJ45 socket, a pair of USB-A ports, a sole USB-C connector, a microSD slot, and an HDMI connection

wasn’t expecting that

kali is for posers, professionals use hannah montana

they do

I’ve used plenty of sshfs a few years ago, but x11 forwarding is a compromise. The latency makes it painful to work with for more than a few minutes.

Same, ranger was painfully slow at times. For some reason it would take multiple seconds to start on a few machines I connected it to.

I can’t believe no one mentioned this, but: remote access.

I spend most of my day connected to machines via SSH and yazi offers a great UX with file previews and all. Using kitty I even get image previews in the terminal.

I’m afraid if we discourage companies from adopting open source we’ll end up with even more closed source garbage.

There are industry sectors where closed source is the norm, and it just leads to more vendor lock-in and less standardization and interop.

I’m a bit young to say for sure, but I believe closed source was the norm in the software world 20-30 years ago and openness was stigmatized. I certainly don’t want to live in that world.

“oh no, anyway…”

GTA online was fun from 2015 until a couple years later before flying bikes and sky races. R* kept pushing updates that appeal to teenagers and absolutely ruined it.

mah man

man man

oh man

Exactly. A few months ago the headline was a patent of Roku hijacking HDMI to show ads.

I’ll save my energy to be pissed off when this garbage actually makes it to market.

Learn a docker compose deploy. It’s a knowledge that pays off for services other than jellyfin too.

Collectibles are non-fungible tokens by definition, and blockchain is just a data structure.

I don’t care about collectibles / NFTs, but this is nothing new in the gaming world.

only 5 commits less than 14 years old

I think you’re looking at the latest commit in each branch. There are ~40 commits this year.

I thought screen was abandonware after RHEL removed it in 2019 and recommended tmux instead.

It’s a vulnerability that affects secure boot through grub. MS is the interested party in patching it because they’re the ones selling secure boot certifications. It doesn’t surprise me a bit if the open source community is not interested in patching secure boot holes.

The bottom line is that a windows update broke grub. Again.

Secure boot borking systems? Windows assuming it’s the only OS on the machine? I’m shocked
