I agree with the person you're replying to in the sense that Linus's decision is OK, but the delivery could be less "idiotic". This could be a different message entirely. Even a cold "Yes we have some things happening. Can't tell more for now" would've been fine.

I'm Finnish. Did you think I'd be supporting Russian aggression?

Where did that come from? Sir this is a kernel mailing list. Why the nationality chest beating? I'm Polish and I have a smirk all day on November 4 but it's just so childish from Linus.

Did you know that if you use the "transfer data from my old phone to the new phone" thing, only the apps installed from Google Play will be carried over? That is, FDroid apps and their data will be lost.

The generated password lenghts can be set in the UI at least. It's worse when the password form accepts only SOME special symbols (looking at you bank)

Apart from what everyone already posted:

  • Boring RSS - displays an rss icon in address bar with the rss feeds from the current page's head tag - the cool thing is that unlike other addons like this, this one has only the activeTab permission, rather than "access your data for all sites" - https://addons.mozilla.org/pl/firefox/addon/boring-rss

And also set-up SSO/LDAP in your homelab if you run one so you don't have 3000 loose outdated account entries for IPs like 192.168.10.5 user: admin password:*****

Away from home for months; homelab unreachable; now looking for UPS (szmer.info)

I'm currently traveling for months at a time and my homelab has become unreachable to me over VPN due to a unknown complication after a power outage.

Just as a learning experience for all, my mistake was that I set-up my VPN very far down the stack - as a wg-easy app inside TrueNAS SCALE's apps ecosystem. My very important reason for doing it was that way was that wg-easy allows for setting up client devices with a QR code...

Anyway, the NAS is not booting back up nor do the TrueNAS apps. I should've set my VPN up right at the front of the network - on my MikroTik router that also supports Wireguard. The funny thing is I was so happy that my NAS has IPMI and whatnot but now I can't even access it.

For now the NAS is kept powered on from what I know, it just doesn't boot. This should help prevent bitrot until I'm back. All important files are backed up on a 3rd party service.

It's a shame my Jellyfin and Navidrome inaccessible, but I'll live.

Now I'm thinking about buying an UPS so that this doesn't happen in the future. I'd like the UPS to be fanless and rackmount, so that limits me to ~700VA territory.

Devices in my homelab pull about 65W idle and spike to say 150W when everything is booting. ISP modem, router, POE+ switch, AP, NAS. I might add another 20W due to a Lenovo M920q in the future.

I only really care about NUT and graceful shutdown instead of long runtime on battery.

I was thinking about this: https://www.apc.com/us/en/product/SMT750RMI2U/

In my country I can get it with new batteries (no front panel) and a network card for NUT for a total of 180 EUR.

Would that work? Would you be afraid of leaving an UPS (it is kinda like a bomb after all) unattended an leaving your home for 6 months at a time?

Information retention after reading non-fiction (szmer.info)

After reading a non-fiction book, do you beat yourself up over not remembering all that much? This is especially painful if the book took years to complete (e.g. Anne Applebaum's "Gulag").

It's a bit ridiculous to expect to become an Encyclopedia after reading something in passing too, though.

I feel as if working with a computer and using the internet daily destroyed my attention span, which is why I'm self concious about this.

I've been a social media hermit for the past 3 years but recently I've given up and created a few accounts across different apps again. It's unreal how strict the requirements are now.

  1. Give e-mail (ok)
  2. Give phone number (.... eeh, ok)
  3. Use the new account for a while
  4. Account suspended, please upload selfie to continue (no thanks xi). There are also some verification promps where you have to record a video and rotate your face left to right

If this isn't a message to move to indie web I don't know what is
