I just have my Xfinity modem in bridge mode. They looked at me like I had two heads when I asked if they could tell me how to do it at the counter but it was trivial by searching the model number.

Debian testing on a MacBook Air 6,2 (2013). I guess that’s kinda weird. Works fine as a netbook: Firefox, Thunderbird, TigerVNC (handles the low resolution well) and SSH. That’s all I ask of the thing and it works fine. The only hardware that doesn’t work is the webcam, everything else is 100%

It was a free hand-me-down and I put a $45 battery in it so I can use it on the couch. I think what will kill it is when the proprietary charger dies, they cost more used on ebay than the battery did.

The OS is in between the service and the bare metal. Something like OPNsense can be said to be running on bare metal because the OS and the firewall service are so intertwined. However, something like firewalld isn’t running on the bare metal because it’s just a service of the operating system.

That’s how I understand it anyway, I’m not a pro

but the UI is substantially better than Android

For children and drunks, maybe.

For someone in Russia, the impermanence might be a desirable feature. I mean, there’s always still IRC but Discord is all the rage these days.

Get off my lawn.

Colorado House Bill 21-1229 is law here now, maybe your state can pass a bill like it too?

Saying the quiet part out loud again. Forced relocation through either terror or expatriation is Ethnic Cleansing. Ethnic Cleansing may fall under the Genocide Convention.

WTF?

Great marketing in the leadup to Xmas. It worked on me, I wanted to get my wife an apple watch for the holiday and when I saw this news I pulled the trigger instantly.

Nice timing, Apple. You dicks.

Wow, he said it out loud. I mean, looking at it from the outside it sure looks like they are trying to level it but goddamn, that dude actually SAID it.

Yeah, that’ll teach 'em!

cat killed it. get a dog

… but you had a cursor?

iMessage is supposed to be encrypted? I had no idea.

Is there a self-hosted alternative to SMS push? That’s my main push notification, I can’t think of another “service” I use on my phone. I’m an edge case though, already degoogled and don’t let much push to me. SMS is a necessity for work and personal.

To turn that question around, what incentive do the corporations have to encrypt that data? Whole bunch easier to just not care.

He looks like a man that knows he’s still got a job to do but is so, SO over it.

Man, atty Garland is looking haggard lately. He always had the white hair but he’s looking pale and just… haggard. Hope he’s OK

Yeah, I’m not trusting what the JP puts out, just like I’m not trusting aljazerra right now.

Both have a serious bias and cannot be trusted without vetting other sources.
