SteveTech,

I’ve got a similar setup, but my non-root SSDs are F2FS.

SteveTech,

I think they divorced and he found someone else, which is why he stopped making videos.

(I’m not joking, he explained it in one of his most recent videos)

SteveTech,

Nah, auto MDIX should’ve figured it out.

Also I’m not sure the 2.5G spec supports crossover cables anyway.

SteveTech,

the image seems specifically picked to show the effect.

Yeah, they’ve reduced the colour depth the show off the effect without requiring HDR already.

I find it a lot more noticeable in darker images/videos, and places where you’re stuck with a small subset of the total colour depth.

SteveTech,

Yeah, but also I really didn’t expect Zoom to have working screen sharing on wayland before discord.

SteveTech,

Nah, apparently it’s completely valid to end IPv6 addresses with a 0. And I haven’t done much research, but it seems IPv6 really doesn’t have network addresses the way IPv4 does.

Also you can ping them and they reply.

SteveTech,

Here’s the link for the curious: www.inaturalist.org/guide_taxa/292192

SteveTech,

Nah, bots normally have a little robot character next to their name.

SteveTech, (edited )

Have you disabled auto start in the DHCP profile?

Edit: Also you should probably think about getting a cheap UPS if you can afford it, if your power is that bad during storms.

SteveTech,

I’m pretty sure there’s no difference between internal and external ext4 (at least how gnome disks handles it), so I think it’s just trying to make sure users don’t freak out when they format it as ext4 and think their data is all gone on Windows.

Also when it’s grayed out you usually just have to install the fuse driver and file system tools, IIRC for exfat you install exfat-fuse and exfatprogs.

Most smart devices are incredibly dumb.

In this 8th moving vlog, I set up @homeassistant Yellow with a @Raspberry_Pi to solve some of my first world problems—but using smart automation.

SteveTech,

That’s what he did, but with a home assistant yellow as the gateway.

SteveTech,

It was pretty much plug and play for me, I don’t really play much but it’s worked for any game I’ve thrown at it (although there was some artifacting in CS2). I’ve also done some AI stuff with it and haven’t had any issues.

SteveTech,

That’s true, but because of that you can get Cisco certifications, which could be helpful if you end up in an network related job. Those certifications will also give you a lot of knowledge of how networks work. (I’m currently completing a CCNA, and quite enjoy it)

A few other companies also clone the Cisco CLI, so there’s that too. I wouldn’t touch the Web UI if it has one though.

SteveTech,

Some of my server boards do, so they do exist, but I haven’t seen it much on consumer stuff.

SteveTech,

I’ve only been running Debian testing for a few weeks (hopped from Ubuntu dev), but I believe testing also has a 2 to 10 day period before pulling packages from unstable. Like after 10 days in unstable with no issues it automatically gets moved into testing, with more important updates getting a human moving it earlier.

Need some help. Duckdns reverse proxy doesn't seem to be working.

I’m setting up a jellyfin server, and want to access it on the internet. I created a xxxxxxx.duckdns.org address for it. I have installed caddy with duckdns addon (first installed regular caddy, then overwrote /usr/bin/caddy with this custom caddy). My caddy file is as follows...

SteveTech,

Do you have CGNAT?

If you run traceroute 1.1.1.1 the first hop should be your router, and if the second starts with 100, 10, 172, or 192, then you probably have CGNAT.

SteveTech,

I’ve used a bootable Windows USB before to update firmware, so maybe you could try that, you don’t have to install just go to repair then CMD.

If they offer debs, you might be able to extract them and run the updater manually, or maybe something like alien could convert it to an rpm.

I’ve also seen FreeDOS exes, but I’ve only really seen that for BIOS updaters.

SteveTech,

Haha I’m Aussie, but your drinks are pretty cool!

SteveTech,

There’s Adobe creative cloud too

Undervolt stable on Windows but crashes on Linux

I undervolted my CPU about a year ago and haven’t had any issues with it till now. I’ve been dual booting Linux recently and noticed whenever I was in Linux it would crash/reboot after a couple of hours or less of using it. I noticed the behavior was similar to when I set the voltages too low when initially setting up the...

SteveTech,

It might run a bit cooler if its not always boosting

I’ve heard that amd_pstate is a lot more power efficient (thus cooler) compared to acpi.

Like I believe amd_pstate has a lot more states than acpi-cpufreq so it gives Linux much more granular control over the CPU’s performance.

SteveTech,

Deliver packages of international origin for free

Minor nitpick but I don’t believe that’s correct, they’re part of the universal postal union where they set prices for other post companies to send into Australia.

I’m no post enthusiast though, so it might not be correct, that’s just my understanding.

SteveTech,

They’re all free in Australia, well the Telstra ones are. I think they just decided that it’s too expensive pay someone to collect the money. Most also double as a free WiFi hotspot too.

SteveTech,

I don’t have a Samsung, but I’m pretty sure that’s still randomised per network, per connection can be enabled in the developer options somewhere.

SteveTech,

You can download the windows iso from windows webpage, but if I remember correctly you have to do it in Windows since it depends on a downloader program.

It only forces you to use the media creation tool on Windows, everything else it gives you a link to download the ISO.

I kept a windows partition for years because I never knew if I would need it, it was only when I realised I hadn’t touched Windows in months that I felt comfortable removing it

I’m exactly the same.

SteveTech,

Plus having to basically rely on a built-in app database/store to easily install apps

Someone else has mentioned that all GUI ‘stores’ suck, and in my experience that’s true. I usually find things either from Google, suggestions, or apt search.

Kinda stinks to me, and not being able to simply download an installer from a website.

I also thought I might mention that standalone Linux executables do exist, I believe ookla speedtest publish one, and additionally AppImages are really cool in that it’s a container the app runs in that you can just double click.

and having the program, whatever program, up and running reliably within a minute

I’ve only had issues with this when I’ve done something dodgy and I know that I’ve done it, when it’s an app in the middle of development, or snap packages. Anything installed using the distro’s repo, Flatpak, or AppImage, has always worked. I still use Windows for study, and I’m pretty sure it takes longer on Windows to go from download to app running.
