Is there any concept of federated identity in the #fediverse? For example, I use the moniker “YurkshireLad” but it shouldn’t be restricted to only the #mastodon identity @YurkshireLad. If that makes sense.
Weird. Trying to connect a Javascript websocket client to a Python-Tornado websocket server. The websocket is closed as soon as the connection is established, but I can't tell which side is the culprit or why it's happening.
Best free, #OpenSource, #linux based option for #SelfHosting file storage at home? Ideally with app support for copying to/from mobile devices and perhaps support for mounting drives in #windows. I know about #nextcloud and have tinkered with it. I don't love it as it seems to do too much.
“How dare the city take away my right to speed!!!” Says driver ticketed for speeding in a school zone.
I’ve been overtaken in a school zone before so I have sympathy for anyone complaining about this. Are their lives really that important that they can’t slow down and lengthen their journey by 30s? Oh the horror!! #ottawa#barrhaven
For criminy’s sake people. If you know the camera is there, how difficult is it to drive at the speed limit? #wtf
If you've been using the Simple Mobile apps for #android, they were just bought by a company, who is starting to include ads and possibly tracking into them.
I installed #debian and #vscode on my new laptop (on an external SSD for now). Of course vscode hangs at startup. Some posts say it can be fixed by deleting one of two keys from the key ring, but really?
I’m still tempted to try a rolling #linux#distro, but which one? I don’t want one that takes forever to install and manage, uses #xfce and doesn’t pre install hundreds of utilities and games I’ll never use. Oh and a nice theme too perhaps?
I’m not posting this to mock EVs or #tesla. I’m posting this to show a side effect of vehicles having so much technology. We need to be aware of how insecure modern vehicles can be. #ev
My #debian installation is using NetworkManager and WPA Supplicant. Is this right, do I need both? I haven't changed anything; shutdown stopped working after updating Debian. #linux
I don't know who is commentating on the #Gloucester vs #Northampton#rugby game, but wow he's annoying. He loves to shout. The crowd noise is non-existent in my stream, so he sounds like he's 1 inch from my ear. @rugby
This is so weird. I can only access #docker containers via localhost or its internal IP, not the host’s IP. Maybe docker is misconfigured or needs a config change somehow. #SelfHosting#linux
Now I’ve seen everything. 3 way stop, cars waiting in two directions (east-west). One car in the process of turning south. A car comes flying down the north sidewalk at speed, 30+km/h. Yes, I said down the sidewalk. Thankfully there were no pedestrians. Stay classy #barrhaven#ottawa#IdiotsInCars
This #thinkpad x220 is a great little #linux laptop for its age, but it doesn’t offer any viable storage options for adding more SSDs to backup data. I want to add two SSDs to have two extra copies of everything. Back to the drawing board. #SelfHosting
I thought I’d try and open my really old #yamaha PSR-500 synth keyboard. It stopped working and I wanted to see if maybe a capacitor had blown and it would be an easy fix. Or I could salvage some interesting #electronics from it.
After removing 30+ screws in the base I can almost get the base off, except it seems to be really stuck along the edge where the keys are. Not sure what’s going on.
