Glad you are okay. I got out yesterday too and the scenes of the city were just an absolute mess. Glad the cell towers are back online, so many people I saw yesterday were just trying to find a spec of reception to get even a single text out to their loved ones to let them know they were still alive.

It’s going to take quite some time to repair all the damage and get power back up, but I saw the National Guard rolling in as we left with tree chippers 🙏

Opinion? Try again. It’s called slander.

Who is forcing you to wear a mask in this scenario?

I happily use Fedora for workstation purposes but hate to admit I use it, so it’s an accurate critique. It’s a great operating system though, naming aside.

It literally was in the opening paragraph. Previous years keynotes are available in a playlist here, so I assume they’ll do the same for this year’s keynotes as well. The event only just ended yesterday.

Open Source Summit 2024 keynotes. I don’t think any of the recordings are available yet.

The malicious code is only thought to have affected deb/rpm packaging (i.e the backdoor only included itself with those packaging methods). Additionally, arch doesn’t link ssh against liblzma which means this specific vulnerability wasn’t applicable to arch. Arch may have still been vulnerable in other ways, but this specific vulnerability targeted deb/rpm distros

I hope you’re right and this isn’t about them getting ready to DRM brush handles to brush heads. Sonicare brush heads are ridiculously overpriced compared to the knock offs

Yeah, same thing happened to us. Landlord said he had at least 5 years. After 2 he starts grumbling that our rent is too low but he can’t increase it to the level he wants to (BC rent control). We say, oh that’s too bad.

After 3 years he decides he’s done being a landlord and wants to sell the apartment and tells us he’s going to kick us out and sell the place. We fight. BC has a policy that the landlord must actually live in the unit for at least 6 months in order to evict a current tenant and he’s shown us he doesn’t intend to do so.

There is more fighting, he finally consults a lawyer (he didn’t seem to be aware of the law). He finally understands what he must do to evict us and we started losing ground. End of story we negotiated him for extra money, getting evicted on the same date and decided it was better than walking away empty handed.

I mean, certain airlines are starting to adopt size policies which will grant you an additional seat if you are overweight. Why is it such a stretch to believe that tall people should receive the same accommodation?

This is a feature of SATA devices too. Use UUIDs in your fstab unless you enjoy playing musical chairs with your mount points

Been a sync user since 2010. LJ has taken a lot of breaks but has always come back

You need to use chown if you want to own the libs

The LE steam decks are shipping with a screen manufactured by BOE.

Mine just arrived and indeed has 3 dead subpixels (2 blue, 1 green)

LE, order placed 10:19 Pacific. Not shipped yet, but packaged. Guess the Canada shipping backlog is real – hopefully it comes this week.

If you think that’s silly then you should see all the people praising a woman for putting an ice cube in a pot to the same effect.

Sure it stopped the water from boiling over, it also stopped the water boiling at all.

This will probably use some well-defined api endpoint to do their telemetry check-in, so this could probably be effectively circumvented if users were willing and able to do host level overrides to specifically prevent the unity engine from phoning home

I don’t really use it for this, but here are some things I do use it for:

• metrics scraping on servers without needing to open ports or worry about ssl encryption. Works great for federating Prometheus instances or scraping exporters
• secure access to machines not directly exposed to the internet. I.e. ssh access to my home box while I’m traveling
• being an exit node for web traffic while traveling. I.e. maybe you are traveling and have a bank who is giving you grief about logging in – masquerade that connection from your home IP

I mostly just use it for metrics scraping though

If you were under Linux, you could have the start command change desktop resolution with xrandr. But since you are on Windows it looks like qres is a command line app to help you achieve the same thing: https://m.majorgeeks.com/files/details/qres.html

There’s also HDR switch: https://github.com/bradgearon/hdr-switch

Using the nvstreamer1080 option may be a bit easier, but nice to have options!

Edit: I should read better. Did you try

C:\\path\\to\\QRes.exe /x:1200 /y:800

Just run from you command line first until you get the hang of it

I’ve managed to get in the habit of pointing the screen away from my eye sockets in bed when it’s dark. 60% of the time, it works every time
