  • PS5 Linux project released, turning some PlayStation 5 consoles into Linux PCs

    Jump

  • To anyone who owns a PS5 and thinks this is cool and wants to use it: turn off updates now, it just disconnect it from the network. This will be patched and blocked, probably very quickly.

  • Firefox Has Quietly Integrated Brave's Adblock Engine

    Jump

  • No company that doesn't allow you to install browser add-ons will allow you to run a pi-hole instance. Not on your machine, and much less as an actual pi plugged into their network. If you did plug an actual pi into the network it would probably reason to be just straight up fired.

  • I wouldn't think so. I would also assume that direct DNS requests to external servers aren't allowed in the firewall. But even if they are, they probably can't use a non-company DNS server if he needs to reach internally hosted services. So it would at least require using different browser for internal and external browsing, assuming DNS requests to external servers really are allowed.

  • If he can't even install an addon for a browser, what do you think he can do with DNS?

  • How do you stop arguing with people on social media?

    Jump

  • I find it helps immensely to not be on social media to begin with.

  • Proxmox audio for all guests solution?

    Jump

  • The arch package has to be built somehow. You could look at that packages source to figure out how to manually do it on your system, or wait/hope the deb is being maintained and gets fixed.

    It's likely mostly some plumbing, like a systemd service with it's configuration, to get the audio routed properly.

  • Why don't spaceships rotate to cause artificial gravity?

    Jump

  • Doable, not practical. Another major concern is the induced dizziness and general discomfort from such a small circumference. If you stand up straight, your head moves significantly slower than your feet. There are more effects that humans don't do well with.

    In addition keep in mind that this implies significant mechanical complexity the moment you don't rotate the whole craft, but only a section or ring. If you do rotate all of it, simple tasks like taking a photo become... cumbersome.

    Also like others have said, it's not a permanent residence for anyone, and the main goal of the ISS is the study of low- or micro-gravity.

  • Somewhere between zero and 16. There is no "usually" for me.

  • Why are you crying, Windows user?

    Jump

  • I bought 48 GB DDR5 for my laptop back in September, just before the prices ignited their rocket engines. I paid 120€ I think. Prices now are like 500(ish). Truly insane.

  • If you're using a keepass database, Keepass2Android can natively sync with many cloud options including self hosted and generic ones, even without specific "companion" apps. That's what I use. In my case, it's backed by my NextCloud, but it used to be Google drive before.

    Just also sync the file on your PC, merging changes from different clients is part of the keepass database format and "just works".

    Also VaultWarden works great if your can self host it, but I prefer keepass for a variety of features and integrations.

  • Considering self hosting my own git repositories. What are some options?

    Jump

  • Forgejo was soft forked from Gitea after they went commercial and changed the license (I think). If there aren't any so far, expect pay walled features eventually.

    Forgejo turned into a hard fork after communication issues between the teams. I haven't looked too deeply into it (as I don't really care about the fact that it's a hard fork now). This means while it used to be a drop-in replacement allowing you to go back and forth between the two, it's now an active conversion, I think.

  • Do you stick to the same linux distro across your devices?

    Jump

  • All normal PCs run CachyOS, includes gaming PCs, laptops and media PCs. All servers run some form of Debian (includes Proxmox) or a dedicated distro for their use (TRUE WAS, technically also Debian based).

  • Does anyone have any experience with Sync-in for online files?

    Jump

  • Maybe look onto OwnCloud. That's the project NextCloud was forked from many years ago. It's very much still around and had a very different philosophy, a much more minimalistic approach with focus on stability. That's actually the reason the people behind NextCloud had to fork it, cause all their additional features (bloat) wasn't accepted upstream.

  • We Overhauled Our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy - Another VC funded bait and switch

    Jump

  • Appreciate the heads up. I'm reasonably sure I've already uninstalled it anyway, but I'll check tomorrow to make sure.

  • Does anyone have any experience with Sync-in for online files?

    Jump

  • If you just want file sync, the obvious option is SyncThing. It's established and highly regarded.

  • What search engine do you guys use?

    Jump

  • Yes, but my search data doesn't leave my house. Also since my IP changed multiple times a week (not quite daily, but close), I prefer this to using someone else's instance. There is some obfuscation to be gained by searching through a public insurance as well, but my insurance is still used by multiple people, not just me.

  • What search engine do you guys use?

    Jump

  • searxng (self hosted). But I understand not everyone can host something. There are public instances out there as well.

  • As unfortunate as that is, most of these seem to have dwindling user numbers since the emergence of LLMs. Users just don't ask on boards when they can ask an AI (and get a potentially wrong or unhelpful response).

    SO in particular had it's question volume drop by I think like 90% or something in recent months/years. I don't remember the exact numbers, but search the net or associated communities here for details. Shouldn't be hard to find.

  • AI tool OpenClaw wipes the inbox of Meta's AI Alignment director despite repeated commands to stop — executive had to manually terminate the AI to stop the bot from continuing to erase data

  • Wasn't this many days ago already, or did it happen again? I remember reading this like 3 or 4 days ago as well.
