them monitors have standard HDMI in, so anything can drive them. for power, there are USB power inputs (a powerbank is easily taped to the back), and then another cable to relay touch. so, kinda cumbersome...

what's way more interesting to me is that they have USB Type-C and there are youtube videos showing phones attached to them with a single cable transmitting video and power and relaying back touch input! not all phones support that, e.g. flagship samsungs do, the ones that support Dex.

question is, how does a laptop that supports DP-Alt handle that; there aren't any videos of users achieving same functionality that way. like, if a phone can power it I'm sure a laptop with 10x the battery can do as well... or?

and then, there's the main reason why this is in "Linux"... how and does it work with wayland and friends?

try it with a live USB with Gnome as it is way more touch friendly. Fedora latest recommended because the live USB has a Wayland session (older versions default to X11 and a buncha touch and transition features are Wayland-only).

as to seamless transition, no DE on linux is there yet. Gnome is way better than it was a year or two ago in that regard, but flakyness is still present, expecting the polish and reliability of Android or iPadOS isn't realistic.

 

I've got these things locally available in the $50-60 range. This being a generic brand, I imagine a buncha those are available globally. Anyone tried 'em, do they work OK with modern desktops (gnome, plasma)? Touch? DP-Alt or are they DisplayLink? Do they have PD?

Sellers are helpful nada, same with youtube videos, just marketing fluff.

oh it's the "au lot" guy

 

Judge Perlman, who was — no shit — Jewish, did not care for Nazis. This led him to reach out to one of the most powerful Jewish guys around: Meyer Lansky. Judge Perlman, as you might expect, hadn’t done Meyer any favors in the past. He had for example helped to end Prohibition, the repeal of which, while generally extremely popular, wasn’t great for the Meyer Lanskys of the world, who had been making bank off illegal booze. But when Perlman met with Meyer after the rise of the German American Bund, they ended up getting along pretty well. Perlman was like “I want you to disrupt meetings of Nazis” and Meyer was like “excellent, on it,” and Perlman was like “hang on I’m not finished” and Meyer was like “sorry” and Perlman was like “I will pay you and give you legal assistance, should anyone get arrested. The only condition is, don’t kill anyone.” With what I can only imagine to be the world’s greatest eye roll, Meyer said “Ugh fine, I won’t kill anyone. Also, I don’t want your money.”

And then he went to work.

In the meantime, Meyer Lansky and Bugsy Siegel also TRAINED other people to fight Nazis, which, come on, can you just imagine Meyer Lansky and Bugsy Siegel training young antifa in the early 30s? I love it. I’m picturing a lot of newsboy caps and comments like “no no not like that, my bubbe (ofblessedmemory) punches better than that, you grip the brass knuckles like this.”

tried 'em all and they all suck. it's possible there are options that work for monolingual people, but for simultaneously using 3-4 languages without annoying switching back and forth, there is no alternative.

since android 15 you can disable network access to any app and that's how I run gboard, the only google app I have on my mobile devices.

re: sony changing their deal with you because someone else changed their deal with them, for any lawyer worth their salt this should be a walk in the park. since the days of roman law the principle is that your obligations with party A don't influence your obligations towards party B.

sony is free to change the deal for future users, but the deal you made with sony is/should be the same as the day it was made.

enter regulation capture and doing away with even the pretense of rule of law. everything that follows is of their own making.

possible. I tried it at one point with the -Z option, which should disable compression but no change, same result.

trying to transfer a large (13 GB) folder via USB to my phone with adb push. if I try singular, smaller files they go through, pushing the whole folder hangs adb and then gets OOM killed.

adb pull from phone #1 worked without issues, pushing it to phone #2 starts eating up all RAM (16 GB) and then gets killed. so I created a 16 GB swap file, swapon, push - same thing, eats up all RAM, then all swap, then OOM manager kills konsole. no files are created on the phone.

transferring via MTP isn't viable, it's like 700 bytes/sec.

tried everything suggested here.

edit: tried adb over wifi, different terminal, same deal.

tl;dr - attacker needs to be connected to your wifi to exploit it. wish they'd lead with that.

not a plex user but someone buried the lede here... to me, this is the neon sign that screams GTFO:

we noticed that you've accessed libraries in the past

what business of yours is it to notice my private comings and goings?! what other actionable intel do y'all keep in your logs?! bye!

I ran something similar a while ago; it automated the steps you're describing so it downloaded every new video from the channels I'm subscribed to along with metadata. I gave that up as it's hella inefficient. what I have now is just a media sink by way of macast and I can send videos for playback to my media PC. so if you don't need those videos for archiving purposes, try it out.

don't go with server variants of the OS. they are intended for boxes that work without display and keyboard, which you have. instead, install any normal distro you're familiar with. it's infinitely easier to fix something with the full GUI at your disposal.

this is just your first install, you will iterate, and through that process you'll get better and leaner, in terms of underlying OS. think of it as training wheels on a bike, you'll pull them off eventually.

wired connection only, leave wireless turned off, and assign it a static IP address.

don't do containerS, do one container first. figure out where you're gonna store the compose files, where it will store data, how you will back that data up, etc. then add another. does it fit into your setup? do you need to modify something? rinse. repeat.

casaOS, aside from it's murky background (some chinese startup or sumsuch, forgot?) doesn't provide that path forward nor allows you to learn something, too much hand holding.

good luck.
