Oh damn, I didn’t think I wouldn’t be the first to post about Evoland 2 of all games in this thread, it’s pretty obscure, isn’t it. Great game though.

Evoland 2 has a lot of references.

Don’t use passwords for public SSH in the first place. Disable password authentication and use pubkeys.

I’m fairly sure you can do this with Wireplumber hooks. https://pipewire.pages.freedesktop.org/wireplumber/design/events_and_hooks.html

QtWidgets uses software rendering. It’s completely fine on my 4K display except for a single application, KOrganizer, where it actually takes a while to redraw the UI. You can implement hardware rendering badly too (see QtQuick which is noticeably less responsive than QtWidgets)

I’m in a similar situation. Before I had to move all was fine, I had a single ethernet port I plugged my router into. It even had a static IPv4 (even though no IPv6 but I could just use tunnelbroker). Literally perfect.

After I moved I’m now stuck in this horribly designed network that has a stupid internet cafe tier login portal even for wired devices, unencrypted wifi, seemingly every single device from every student on the same network (I am getting blasted with other people’s broadcast packets and I’m pretty sure the network congestion from that is where my weird intermittent packet loss comes from). And now I don’t have any public IP address at all.

Whoever they hired to set this up is an absolute moron who has no idea about network security or how to make an efficient network and considering the internet cafe login portal probably likes to cause as much suffering as possible. (Not saying I’m necessarily qualified but the fact alone that I can connect to other people’s AirPlay devices means they failed at both.)

And the reason all of this is a problem is that they also don’t allow putting a router/firewall in front so I can get a sane network. Had to tear down pretty much all the infrastructure I set up in the old place because a lot of it was relying on me having control over the network. Of course, I knew none of this before I moved in, I was explicitly looking for internet shenanigans in the contract.

I now have a janky Wireguard mesh network setup with one of the machines being the IPv6 gateway. Awful but at least I have public addresses and IPv6 (and with that a bit of my own network space) again.

Me too, Intel

Registrars (or DNS providers if you don’t use the one that comes with your registrar) worth using have an API to manage DNS entries. That’s basically all there is to DynDNS.

This is designed for Gentoo but I’ve used it for Ubuntu before: https://github.com/TheChymera/mkstage4/

I don’t use a computer from the 90s. It can handle it.

For files? I like title case (like in article headlines). For example, I have a “Shell Tricks.txt”. I’m not really consistent though, sometimes it’s all lowercase or whatever really.

I agree about Sourceforge but there isn’t really anything better than Bugzilla still, at least not that I’ve seen anyone use.

Well, it’s now an issue with Rust since Cargo makes it a pain in the ass to do. It’s one of the big things that makes me very reluctant to write any sort of system tools in Rust despite being a big fan of the language itself.

Ah, yeah openrc is nice and I used it for a long time with gentoo, but it does lack a lot of the useful features like this one.

As far as I know, that only stops out of date versions of grub that have a certain vulnerability from running that would allow escaping Secure Boot. Meh. It doesn’t touch any Linux files or anything and you can boot if you turn off Secure Boot so you can fix it. Long shot from what used to happen where you could only have one boot loader installed at a time so installing Windows would wipe what was there before.

(and by fix it I mean replace grub with systemd-boot)

Windows doesn’t mess with the Linux install anymore, that was with BIOS boot. Just make sure the EFI partition is big enough so you can fit both.

server applications

Note that systemd can use most if not all of the isolation features nsjail lists in the readme already for services it manages.

Do you want a window manager or a desktop environment? They’re different things. A WM is a component of a DE but the latter also comes with a full set of applications along with it.

Just one more lane will fix traffic bro

It would need some sort of way to hook into the compositor. PowerToys has it easy because they can just add the necessary APIs to the Windows compositor if it doesn’t already have them. And I feel like compositors would just implement it directly instead of designing an API for it because that’s less complex.
