It’s worse with AppImages since they bundle everything in the same file. At least flatpaks do a little bit of deduplication with their platform packages.

Not OP, but BIOSes often give you a specific error code after a few wrong password attempts. You can put the code in here to recover the password: https://bios-pw.org/

Cert pinning is pretty uncommon in the self hosting community though, especially when both Cloudflare and Let’s Encrypt have a 90 day validity period and often renews after 60 days.

Uhh, this might be true for WebRTC, except not much uses WebRTC other than for realtime streaming/calling. Jellyfin for example is just an mp4 stream over http; and http(s) will only use the IP in the DNS record. I’d like to see a packet capture if you are certain something is switching IP.

Yeah, YunoHost explains why http://localhost:8536/ wouldn’t be working. If cloudflared and Lemmy are in separate containers you have to put an actual IP in, since localhost points to the container itself.

How are you accessing it without Cloudflare? How do you know that Lemmy is actually listening?

What’s the URL you using to access it without Cloudflare?

Edit: Also that curl tells me it’s not listening on that IP/port.

Can you access it without Cloudflare?

Does curl http://localhost:8536/ work?

You are using cloudflared right? Because normal (non-cloudflared) Cloudflare doesn’t support port 8536.

With dynamic DNS? Yeah it always has, as long as you can host a http server.

With a dynamic IP? It should do, the certs are only valid for 6 days for that reason.

Oh okay, I had assumed compiling would be a bit more I/O bound, while gaming would be a bit more CPU bound, but I guess you’re right about the benchmarks!

If it helps, I wrote a KDE widget to switch between the modes: https://github.com/Steve-Tech/KDE-AMD-X3D-Selector

My understanding is amd_x3d_mode basically prioritises what cores the scheduler will assign tasks to. I usually keep it on cache since I do a lot of code compilation, but I will usually switch it to frequency for gaming and stuff.

You can host a page with an iframe, but you can’t directly change the DNS record to point to something that isn’t GitHub.

It’s not strictly Linux anymore, but I wrote a library (or userspace driver?) in Python that interacts with a ChromeOS Embedded Controller found in Framework Laptops and Chromebooks. The driver part of it interacts with the EC directly over the IO ports, which was originally written for Linux but later ported to FreeBSD and Windows since IO ports aren’t at all OS specific. It can also talk to the cros_ec_dev driver on Linux if it’s loaded.

I wrote a GUI utility for Framework Laptops too, which also serves as the example for CrOS_EC_Python: https://github.com/Steve-Tech/YAFI

Perhaps there was an easier lighter-weight way of doing this?

Yeah, SSH tunneling. What I would do (and have done in the past) is something like:

ssh -L 8080:192.168.0.1:80 myserver

That will forward port 8080 on your host to port 80 on 192.168.0.1, so you can access your router’s web UI with http://localhost:8080/ in your own web browser.

You can also setup full tunneling with SSH, but that requires messing around with SOCKS and I usually can’t be bothered.

My understanding is previously the kernel would crash on systems with more RAM than the address space, so there’s now a patch to ignore the anything above the max address supported (e.g. 32bit without PAE, 36bit with PAE). More RAM was never supported, so I think the author of the article has misunderstood or oversimplified what’s been done.

Epic!

You should be able to add options it87 force_id=0x8688 ignore_resource_conflict=1 to /etc/modprobe.d/it87.conf (or whatever filename) and it87 to /etc/modules. To get it to run at startup.

You can try ignore_resource_conflict which is it87 specific, rather than a system wide acpi_enforce_resources.

modprobe it87 force_id=0x8628 ignore_resource_conflict=1

The reason why this is needed is ACPI claims the I/O ports required to talk to the it87, and Linux doesn’t want to override that.

The master branch works well with Intel ARC, I contributed a lot of the ARC changes. I don’t think they’ve made it into a release yet though.

Edit: 3.2.0 has them: https://github.com/Syllo/nvtop/releases/tag/3.2.0

I got through University running Debian testing. It was mostly fine, some Linux based subjects were way easier without dealing with a VM (they recommended against WSL for some reason).

However there were a couple units that absolutely required you to use Visual Studio (non-code), I occasionally used a VM, the Uni IT also provided me with a remote VM (there’s a form to fill and and it’s all automated). But I mostly used Rider, which for one unit it confused their CI and I got marked down for (otherwise got top marks so it’s fine).

For office, it didn’t matter. Group projects mostly used Google Docs, occasionally Microsoft Office where the online version worked fine. All my units wanted PDFs at the end anyway, so it does not matter that you used LibreOffice or whatever. Some units provided you with DOCX templates, I had no issues opening them with LibreOffice.

Edit: People are mentioning online exams, my Uni did ‘online quizzes’ which worked fine, and some had to be done in class on their PCs anyway. Final exams where always done on paper.

Ahh sorry, I thought you meant you plugged it into the input side. If that’s the case then are you running anything that measures CPU usage? I run the TIG stack, it might be able to give you some hits. Also back to my original point which is already unlikely, if it’s a modified sinewave UPS, it can confuse some measuring devices while it’s on battery.
