Also, if outside noise is preventing one from keeping the windows open over night, get custom-fitted silicone earplugs.
I also have the account @[email protected].

There is forum software that’s integrated in the fediverse. Most often I’ve heard about NodeBB, which is open source and one can self-host it for free; there is even a YunoHost package.
What hardware do you currently use and what software do you intend to run on the new machine? And what’s your budget situation?
In any case, I would always recommend to buy used or refurbished hardware. Even if it’s not necessary financially, it’s better for the environment.
That’s very cool indeed – although I dread the moment he starts talking to his followers about Lemmy.
This is in all likelihood the way to go. These instructions from VeraCrypt might lead the way.
Of course, OP should create an exact duplicate of the disk to another drive before making any changes to it.
As an aside, I know that GPT partition tables likewise come with a backup header at the end of the disk. Whether LUKS encrypted devices also have backup headers, I don’t know, but it doesn’t seem so. So, my fellow LUKS users, perhaps you would like to run the following:
sudo cryptsetup luksHeaderBackup /dev/LUKSDEVICE --header-backup-file ~/nas/backups/lenovo_x280.luks.bin
I think a better title would be “Gnome is Asking You to Switch from Lump Sum Donations to Regular Donations, Even If the Total Amount is Smaller”
There’s a provision that says the trust structure can be changed without everyone’s consent if the intended change is in the interest of all trustees. Rupert, Lachlan and their team want to exploit this by arguing that the ongoing financial success of the media empire is dependent on it retaining its staunchly conservative editorial line, so that it is in fact (from a financial point of view) in the interest of the three non-conservative children if they don’t get to have any influence. The first judge wasn’t buying it; let’s hope that the others will rule the same way. (One argument in their favor is that the $787 million settlement that Fox News has to pay to Dominion Voting System due to a defamation lawsuit was a consequence of Rupert’s or Lachlan’s die-hard conservative messaging.)
What’s less good: I remember dimly that, should Rupert live long enough (past theö year 2030?), he can change the trust at will again.
Thank you, that’s interesting and good to know. At least it’s probably a good idea to not increment/decrement properties in very small steps (like 2% at a time) on a regular basis. I suspect the 5% steps I’m using for brightness should be fine, but I’ll implement some shortcuts that go in bigger steps just to be sure.
The most staggering thing though is that the show has had quite noticeable repercussions on the dealings of the real-life Murdochs. Anyone who would like a long read on all this can check out the Atlantic article linked in the post description.
The Atlantic article that I linked in the post description talks at length about the spicy shit (especially about the family relations and only comparatively little about the legal aspects).
Someone should make a Monty Python style sketch out of this
I’m curious about both things you mention. Do you have the name of the kernel module at hand? And can you point me to a source on the monitor flash memory (as I couldn’t find anything on that)?
I feel you basically. I have given up trying to control the RGB on my RAM (even though it’s probably decently documented somewhere).
Physical! The same as if you reached with your hand to access your monitor’s inbuilt settings dialogue.
Your comment has now motivated me to add a Windows section :)
I know nothing about this, but can OpenRGB (Linux tool) talk to your device in any way?
Rather than running a Tor relay, running a simple Tor bridge (e.g. via the browser add-on Snowflake as suggested by @[email protected]) is probably the best thing to do with one’s home hardware.
Actual relays must suffice certain requirements, according to the Tor project:
Requirements for Tor relays depend on the type of relay and the bandwidth they provide. ==== Bandwidth and Connections ====
A non-exit relay should be able to handle at least 7000 concurrent connections. This can overwhelm consumer-level routers. If you run the Tor relay from a server (virtual or dedicated) in a data center you will be fine. If you run it behind a consumer-level router at home you will have to try and see if your home router can handle it or if it starts failing. Fast exit relays (>=100 Mbit/s) usually have to handle a lot more concurrent connections (>100k).
It is recommended that a relay have at least 16 Mbit/s (Mbps) upload bandwidth and 16 Mbit/s (Mbps) download bandwidth available for Tor. More is better. The minimum requirements for a relay are 10 Mbit/s (Mbps). If you have less than 10 Mbit/s but at least 1 Mbit/s we recommend you run a [/wiki/doc/PluggableTransports/obfs4proxy bridge with obfs4 support]. If you do not know your bandwidth you can use http://beta.speedtest.net/ to measure it.
As for exit relays aka exit nodes, the obligatory advice is of course to not run them at all unless you know exactly what you are doing both legally and technically, and probably only if you’re a foundation or something.
Love it. Under text editors, would you like to add Helix? It’s much like (n)vim, but among many other aspects it has better discoverability of features (although several key features like plugins and code folding are still missing).
Some local libraries (e.g. in Heidelberg) or ecological initiatives lend devices to measure electricity consumption at the power plug. In particular, this is useful to measure other appliances as well.
Specifically for computers, they probably have some means to tell you their own consumption, but they may not be accurate or complete and will most certainly omit any peripherals, e.g. external hard drives.
The article doesn’t say that. This is what it says:
You’re not doing the bare minimum to arrive at an accurate picture of things. This makes this discussion a waste of time.
