  • I host my own.

  • Great for car camping. I'm using a jackery for power in my van until I have the time to finish my build with something bigger and more permanent. For now I just jack that into the house fuse box, and plug it into the van to charge while driving. I have a solar briefcase to put out when camping.

  • It's amazing for getting mildew funk out of towels. Also great at killing the funk in whitewater neoprene booties and bike helmets.

    I wouldn't use soap to flush my camper van's water system either. A few runs of vinegar killed the plastic taste.

  • It's powered by nuclear, probably not carrying nuclear warheads.

    • For file save/send dialogs, just drag/drop from nemo/nautilus to the file dialog instead of using the annoying navigation in the file dialog itself.
    • In cinnamon, use win-l,r,u,d to snap. In succession will go from full width/height to a corner. Reverse or drag the window to go back to original size. This gives you nice tiling with the flexibility of traditional window management as well.
    • for a terminal ctl-alt-t
    • alt-f2 to execute a command with history
  • Used to. Prefer Aquamail. I'm a thunderbird user on my workstation though. The latest changes were controversial, but it's fine once you enable the system title bar and hide the menu bar.

  • I've been using Linux as my personal and professional workstation since the 90s. I get things done. The OS does what I tell it to do without trying to sell me things or throw toolbar nonsense and garbage inconsistent UIs in my face.

  • Patents should simply be a monopoly on an idea for enough time to gather resources to develop that idea's prototype. I know it doesn't work that way, but it should. They really should be there for small inventors, not giant corps who have plenty of resources, but I digress.

    But software itself can implement that prototype without having to build anything. Your ideas can be created directly. We don't patent math and we don't patent poetry or even poetic writing structures.

    Software and business method patents are utter bullshit.

  • Fuck software patents and business method patents. Patent the machine. Copyright the instructions to tell the machine what to do if you must.

  • Yes please. None of those have anything to do with technology. I want to see some PM-esque posts in here.

  • You'll also need umask for each user to be 002 for it to work transparently.

  • A TS/SCI background investigation would cover it. One would think the commander in chief should be able to hold a security clearance. Then there's Ivanka and Jared with China and the Saudis. But hunter biden did what?

  • Weak. You can easily jam IR by holding a button on another remote. No need to stand there with your hand over it.

  • alt.wesley.crusher.die.die.die would say otherwise.

  • So a proxy of their own so Google can watch everything you do themselves? GTFO.

  • Pebble tasker is nice too. Stuff like laundry timers and setting my home "went to bed" profiles, and a "where the fuck is my phone" task. Also a nice way to flip through apps in my van that does not have Android auto.

  • Mint integrates flatpak seemlessly into its graphic package management and update tools.

  • I use Borg to my nas, then rclone that to rsync.net. With Borg if you need the remote copy, you can interact with it directly.

    You can, of course, Borg directly to rsync.net. You can also use rsync instead and let their ZFS snapshots do retention for you.
