Consent. Look it up.

Georges Saint Pierre? Sorry, I had to…

I didn’t want to see that. I’ve been trying to avoid seeing that. I’m really annoyed at you.

No, it’s end-user panic. “That report me and Bob were working on? It’s gone! Emergency! Panic!”

sigh I know. It’s my boss that implemented the policy… But it was after she audited password ages and a dictionary and found that CompanyName123 was universal and for years at a stretch.

Admin here! OneDrive synced home folders at work. Everyone ignores saving because ‘autosave’. Once a week at least, some staff member spends hours on something after the mandatory 90-day password change, never signed back in to OneDrive, and gets to kiss all that work goodbye. Also, once a quarter at least, someone was working on a document shared to the by an employee who just quit, so we have to frantically ‘unfire’ someone’s account so the suddenly missing document can be retrieved.

Are you sure you’re passing your gpu through correctly? This didn’t happen to me, but a buddy of mine didn’t do iommu and tried to pass the gpu through to a VM, and he couldn’t boot either. If you boot rescue and change the VM to not start-up on boot? I would definitely post your grub boot line.

I’m starting to see this amongst my techie friends: invite only enclaves. Like, using matrix or signal chats that are only by invite; Jellyfin servers for streaming, again, among friends. Group cloud services like nextcloud, mail servers cut off from email at large… Internet-like services, but for small groups.

Instead of just “Boycott US pop”, may I suggest Cove Soda, Annex Soda, Rocky Mountain Brewing Company Cola, or Atypique? All are Canadian made, all beat Coke and Pepsi any day of the week, and I can personally vouch for all of them as fricking fantastic! Dr. Cove is like a milder Dr Pepper, Annex Cola is craft Cola done right, RMBC Black Cherry is to die for, and the Atypique Amaretto Sour is my go-to fake booze.

At least one other that I have encountered, and the band Cake also did the song and they almost sound like they’re doing a Shatner…

Wow wow wow wow… Wow.

I encoded one of the very first mp3’s ever made, when it was still a “theoretical” model by Fraunhofer. I sung “I will survive” but in my very bad impression of William Shatner, accidentally posted it many years later on Napster, and found that copy following around many years after that on a torrent site. So, if you have a very old, very fake “Shatner” singing “I Will Survive”, it might be me.

I have an old as eff laptop hiding behind my TV, and I use Unified Remote to make my phone act like a wireless mouse and keyboard for it.

Also, Proxmox is basically the answer to “I hate big tech and have a lot of time to kill. How do I deal?” Make one computer into 30 mini servers.

Ugh. Try living here!

Bluefox NX1. It fits in my change pocket.

Thumbs up! Refind plus mint and you have yourself a nice little machine! This is my “music when I game” or “quick Google the walkthrough” secondary machine. Mine might be older though.

I’m kind of in favor of throwing every one of the traitors over the southern border by the seat of their useless pants.

And off-site! Don’t forget that!

First, buy a domain. Then, set up a server, then a hypervisor on the server, then set up a reverse proxy, punch a hole in your firewall, set up MFA, set up a container, install docker, set up NextCloud using a docker-compose, set up accounts and a client on the devices… Simple!

I agree, and I take it this far: “I worked hard and paid for my house, why should some lazy loafer get housing for free? I paid 24,000$ in tuition, why should kids get free college?” I think that, at some point, one guy has to be the first guy to benefit from progress, and all the people who didn’t benefit just have to suck it up. I would 100% pay a much higher tax rate if it meant that homelessness was gone, hunger was gone, kids got free education… I’m Canadian, so I don’t need to say this about health care. Yeah, I paid an awful lot of mortgage, but if someone else gets a free house? Good!
