I’ve had bad tinkering break my system before, but never had an update break it irreversibly. The closest would actually be on Silverblue itself, when an update to the kernel was using different signing keys that cause the system not to boot. Fortunately it was simple, I selected the previous deployment and I was in (on a non versioned OS I would have selected the previous kernel which most are configured to retain the last few). A quick Google revealed Ublue had a whole kerfuffle and after verifying it was legit, I enrolled the new certs into my MOK.

Although one time on Arch I had installed an experimental version of Gnome from one of their repos, and was pleasantly surprised when that version finally released and I removed the experiment repo and did an update absolutely nothing at all broke. Nothing.

LUKS, or anything that relies on the server encrypting, is highly vulnerable (see [email protected]’s response).

Your best bet would be encrypting client side before it arrives on the server using a solution like rclone, restic, borg, etc.

Yup. Toyota Yaris '15 stock. Lowest trim they offer.

My car is a 2015 and didn’t come with a cruise control lol :(.

To be fair, I can drive at and maintain a consistent speed without it, though I didn’t have to often thanks to stop and go traffic 🎉.

Programming and self hosting the results when I was ~14 is what led me to a tech background. No university, but I’ve been working professionally in both IT and software for over a decade and self hosting even longer.

The new gamer’s nexus review outlines some pretty specific prerequisites that AMD sent to fix performance on Windows, and AMD didn’t communicate those until they’d had the review units for days.

Bookmarking Arkane. I’m a huge fan of Fedora Atomic but miss AUR.

Due to the nature if those charts, they’re usually web based, not desktop native, and will probably have to be self hosted, even just locally. For example, Redmine supports Gantt charts and can be spun up fairly easily from its Docker image.

I’ve been told they’re a projection put in the sky by God to test our faith lol.

The command modifies the firewall to allow all incoming traffic on the docker0 network interface (which is created by Docker). It’s basically a bypass.

You can configure Docker to not try and manage it’s own rules, here is some discussion on the topic: https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/22054#issuecomment-2241481323

When I was young, around 10, I was bored. We had one shitty desktop and no internet 99% of the time (we had dial up but only 1 landline, and my mom used the phone alot). We were also homeschooled, and the software teaching us was on that computer. I found the software documentation which was in HTML, and used that to make my own “website”.

Even before then though I had a draw to tinkering with computers. After a bit I convinced my mom to get me intro to C++ by Bjarne Stroustrup, and messed with that for a good year or so. Then we upgraded to DSL when I was around 13 and I got into Roblox and learned Lua, then other languages.

They’re pretty insecure anyway, my current P14s Gen1 has a working fingerprint reader on Silverblue but I haven’t really used it.

I haven’t used a T14, just the E14 and the P14S.

New ish. My current Thinkpad is a P14s Gen 1 with a Ryzen 4750U 16GB of RAM, and it came with a 512GB SSD. I paid just under $300 for it on eBay and well worth the cost. I wouldn’t get anything that is still a TXXX variant anymore though (e g. T490), they simplified the product line. So T490 was replaced by the E14 Gen 1, and the P14s Gen 1 is an AMD variant.

Highly recommend. One thing worth noting though is to double check the fingerprint reader if you desire that, the E14 Gen 1 has a reader not compatible with Linux in a functional way. The P14s Gen 1 however does.

I’ve only had to contact them for trust and safety reports and they’ve been pretty responsive, despite usually not telling you the outcome (the outcome is pretty easy to find out anyway). I’m glad I haven’t had to contact them for other stuff though, since I’ve heard it’s a nightmare.

You’re a victim of identity theft. You should start here: https://www.usa.gov/identity-theft

Yes and no. A custom kernel with a patch usually referred to as a “ttl fix” can, but a good amount of ROMs have that in their kernel by default.

Still works for me as of last year. Now I use rooted android with ttlfix.

I work two jobs and have no days off but Friday is the start of not having to drive the next morning so yeah, in a way.

When I first came across that wisdom I realized my desire in a relationship was to just pour myself into the other person, basically worship them. But not for their benefit, but to distract myself from myself. It’s fairly easy to see how that goes wrong.

I’m still learning, and I’ve found even more stuff I need to work on, but either I get there or I don’t, what matters if I never stopped trying.
