  • Bones hated the transporter, and he's the one who deals with the failures...

  • I don't route all my system's traffic through Gluetun, my threat model doesn't need it, I just route relevant apps, e.g. package management is in the clear but firefox, SearXNG, and nicotine go via gluetun. SSH can look after itself, or I'm in dire trouble. If my threat model did need it, I'd be considering a similar solution to yours, but it'd be heavily cribbed from the known good of gluetun, basically the docker (podman) put to bare metal.

  • Just use its proxy for the host system's needs...

  • Damn, we've let working conditions slip so bad, paid overtime was for a long time a given (thanks unions), now it's a perk.

    The top consideration around finding a role with work-life balance according to this year's survey was getting time off work in lieu of any additional hours worked.

    So normal pay, not just giving it away for free, as has become way too normal for the 'salaryman'. Tellingly, "paid overtime" is only in the title as clickbait. Also, "fare compensation", hire an editor SBS, or at least a grammar plugin.

  • Fair cop, a matter of definition of good enough, I guess.

  • Q: Why is a raven like a writing desk ? A: Sci-Hub.(Munin for memory;)

  • This sounds like thinking I had as carer for my mother with dementia/Alzheimer's. If so, I found introducing new things to be not useful, it will be soon forgotten, (If not, good, and ignore this, but XY-Problem indeed). What I found actually useful was remote video monitoring on my phone (using a few RasPi's, I'm sure there are better solutions, but I was poor, and it worked) allowing me to go out in necessity. The other thing I wish I'd done earlier is reach out to any and all available support earlier rather than later, it's a marathon and every edge you can get will allow you to do better for all concerned, not least yourself.

    That said, watches with automatic fall monitoring, with SMS alert to you would be useful. Ideally, something like Alexa (but preferably not as privacy invading, still, needs must as the devil drives) or whatever allowing her to just call out "help" and get a call to you on a speaker / microphone is probably achievable now, perhaps someone can chime in, or you can go searching. Best of luck!

  • Sufficiently advanced biology is indistinguishable from heresy.

    Gold!

  • In what way are you not re-inventing the gluetun wheel ? Not trying to put you down, just that I'd need a good reason to consider anything less battle hardened.

  • You realise KDE's had tiling for years, right? (Bismuth and then native)

  • Try setting it explicitly to be sure, and make sure you've mapped the port in gluetun.

  • Probably unenforceable, like so much of EULAs, but enough to deter the small guys who can't afford the lawyers to defend themselves. Bully tactics. Shame, because an open playing field would benefit everyone but nvidia, also a shame that AMD, who probably could defend themselves, dropped financial support for ZLUDA.

    Also,

  • Australia, the testing ground for bad privacy invading policy for the five (/thirteen/whatever we're up to now) eyes. Also run by technical morons (“The laws of mathematics are very commendable, but the only law that applies in Australia is the law of Australia”). ASSAct etc.

  • I do this, along with pamusb, so I don't need a password for sudo etc. (which allows a longer more secure password than I might otherwise use). Depending on the threat model, I think it's fine to just leave it in. One day I'll get it to shutdown --now on ripping out the key drive without dismounting first, sort of a break glass in emergency thing. Same thing can be achieved with pulling the key and holding the power button though (even if it's a bit rude to the filesystem)

  • But now it's a meme. I'm good with that.

  • Fine, can't see said rules and thread's dead Fred...

    Might choose otherwise.

  • Radicale has been so good I'd forgotton it existed, carddav and caldav sorted. Unix principle at its best, do one thing well (or microservices for the newbies). Why are you dogwhistling for a closed source marginal replacement for syncthing ?

  • Noice!

    Why wouldn't NVIDIA want its drivers made for free, gotta wonder... (might have to do with artificial segmentation, which is getting more redundant as game GPUs go through the roof)

  • What's the answer OP?

  • Would not those laws prevent chewing your nails?
