Languages evolve over time. The term "to serve" is derived from the Latin word for "slave". That does not mean it's somehow offensive to use the term to describe the job of soldiers.

The modern day "riced" comes from "R.I.C.E" which stands for "race inspired car enhancement". If you rice a car, it means you put components that look like race car components but are actually just cosmetic. Fake vents, huge spoilers on family cars, exhausts that are optically bigger, etc. The orange Japanese car in the linked article is an example of that. 70s Japan had renown ricing culture so I guess that's where the R.I.C.E and the racist "rice burner" split.

Nowadays people who use the term "riced" don't even know that at some point in time it had something to do with Asian cars or bikes. It's even common to jokingly associate it with the food with the same name to spite other car nerds because you can "um actually" bait someone to correct you that it has nothing to do with food. Which is obviously not true according to the article but if 99 % of people don't know the racist origin, it's not an issue at all to use the word.

Tbh it's the English language that decides what counts as Open Source. Free/Open Source software has been established for decades at this point. It's good that they changed the name to "Source First".

I think that better wording would be "the organization that doesn't believe that foss solves every problem". For project like immich AGPL is completely fine but for the android keyboard it might not be a good idea to allow Google to use it to abuse their customers.

I don't think it's possible to make this project proprietary because FUTO does not own the rights to the code that were made by random contributors on git. Part of the promise was that they won't change their CLA so it should be fine.

It's probably a skill issue but don't really know how to setup desktop streaming. I've tried

[[apps]]

title = "Desktop"

[apps.video]

source = "pipewiresrc capture-screen-cursor=true capture-screen=true"

But it just shows black screen.

Actually I want to use the wireguard tunnel regardless because right now I am tunneling VNC through SSH, which is laggy because it's TCP. But thanks either way.

I guess OP could change the if statement to check if nixos-rebuild is running, not just check for music being played.

`

         music_is_playing=$(pw-cli i all 2>&1 | grep running -q)

      # Only suspend if audio isn't running

      if [ $music_is_playing == 1 ] && ! pidof nixos-rebuild; then

        systemctl suspend

      fi

  

` But I guess not using the script at all is also an option if putting the PC to sleep is a no-no.

I don't want to be mean but searching "DNS hostnames" just gives generic AI generated "DNS explained" articles. This answer is helpful only if you already know that mDNS exists.

Thanks, I did not know about mDNS. I will use this.

Thanks, it does indeed work. I guess I'll add a wireguard tunnel so that I won't have to bother with the "do you trust the fingerprint?" every time I'm on a different network or when the IP changes.

Unfortunately the router at my gf's house does not resolve the hostname, so no. Though thanks for the suggestion, I feel kinda stupid for not trying that.

Edit: I'm a noob. Solved by adding ".local" suffix after the hostname.

Sure, but that is just unnecessary bloat if you already have the systemd-stuff installed.

imo it's kinda like bash's bloatness. Sure, I'd use a less bloated shell but I need bash as a bash interpreter regardless, so using a smaller shell would actually be more bloat. In a similar way you already have systemd, so you don't really gain any more bloat by having this alias for systemd-run or how it's called.

The original problem was to automagically prompt the user for password, if he tried to run some systemd executable without the wheel privileges. At some point they decided to reuse the code for [a command that allows you to run stuff as root] replacement because sudo is too bloated and vulnerable.

run0 is just an alias for a part of systemd, so installing doas too would be useless bloat. Another thing to note is that doas is just smaller sudo, you still wouldn't use 99 % of its features.

edit: also from my totally surface level understanding both sudo and doas "elevate your privileges" which is supposedly unnecessary attack surface. run0 does it in a better way which I do not understand.

Yeah I mean at that point it's redundant because you might as well type su -c "some command here". On the other hand having such alias does no harm if you're already using systemd.

It's easy to misdetect the card. You just need to flash broken firmware on it that pretends it's a different card. This is definitely not a 2070 because 1) Powercolor does not make nVidia cards and 2) RTX 2000 GPUs don't have DVI ports.

Returning it is what OP should do. He paid for a working card, he should not be dealing with firmware flashing. Though I'd try using GPU-Z on a Windows machine to be sure first. Technically you can only be 100 % sure after reading the laser print from the GPU die but that might make returning harder so I wouldn't bother.

What's wrong with 2 PSUs if both of them are connected to the same ground? I thought multiple PSUs is common in the server space too.

in other words: OP either needs to get a thunderbolt dock or straight up have 2 computers. The latter should not even consume that much more power if the PC gets shut down in the evening and woken up using wakeonlan in the morning.
