ping 1.1 also works. It resolves to 1.0.0.1, which is Cloudflare’s secondary DNS

The concept of “banned words” (other than the offensive stuff, of course) in a classroom is so funny to me. There is no way that the person who came up with that wasn’t the sourest loser ever.

They don’t design all of their laptops, so it’s not always up to them. They order off-the-shelf designs with their logo from Clevo or some other ODM and tweak the firmware.

The model that I have uses the motorcomm yt6801 chip. There is apparently some work going on to upstream the driver by the OEM, but it largely stalled with the last comment being from a kernel maintainer 7 months ago

I’m using an Infinitybook Pro 14 gen 9. It came out last year.

You will most likely need the “tuxedo-drivers” package, but whether you’ll need an ethernet driver too depends on the hardware they choose.

At least they publish their drivers for both RPM and DEB systems, so that makes it a bit less painful.

Of course, none of this applies if you use their distro. There, everything is pre-installed and configured for their laptops

As much as I like my Tuxedo, I probably would not have bought it if I had known that the ethernet card and some laptop essentials dont work without their drivers, which have not been upstreamed. Due to this, I can’t use my distro of choice (Bluefin) OR run with secure boot and LUKS with tpm unlock even on regular Fedora

I had a brain fart and confused React with Electron…

An electron app still needs to be served by a web server, even if the actual business logic is all client-side

EDIT: Electron, not React…

If a Nat 20 (the highest you can ever roll on a 20-sided die!) doesn’t succeed, what was the point of rolling in the first place?

Why does it have to be one or the other?

I, as someone who spends so much time in the terminal that I literally have a dedicated key to open it, would prefer a single CLI command. My grandma, who thinks the monitor is the entire computer, would do better with the “inefficient” GUI option

There can be more than one correct way to do something

Those are the ones I listen to, in no particular order

I’d recommend Ceph (in the form of Rook ) if you’re willing to put in the time to learn it. For a simpler solution, check out Longhorn. Ceph is more mature, and Rook is just a solution that almost fully automates its deployment on kubernetes, while Longhorn is built from scratch as a kubernetes native storage solution. The people who built Longhorn (Rancher Labs) also make a FOSS kubernetes management service called Rancher, so if you prefer a more intuitive web UI for K8s, be sure to check that out too

Rook is the 2nd most used container storage solution I’ve encountered or set up at my job, with legacy storage appliances like IBM FlashSystem and NetApp being the first

Funnily enough, it already works like that, but it’s just too tiny to hit with a finger. Just tested it with my S-Pen

Element is a messenger and will never have the UX of Discord. There is Revolt, which is actually similar to discord but self-hostable

Minecraft can read a special DNS record type called SRV records. You can create a record like that to point Minecraft to a port that the server is running on. It doesn’t even have to have the same ip as the webserver.

This is for Namecheap, but the general principle applies everywhere: https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx/9765/2208/how-can-i-link-my-domain-name-to-a-minecraft-server/

I swear like half of the memes in this community are just ai generated images with an obscure reference as a caption that everybody in the comments somehow gets

At least you finally cleaned up that Downloads directory

To be fair, some languages outside of English reserve “it” (or the equivalent 3rd person neuter pronoun) for “non-living” things. For people whose native language is one of those languages, calling an animal “it” may seem a bit too harsh even while speaking English.

I personally have the complete opposite experience with under-screen scanners. As in, it’s literally the only type that works reliably for me. Before I got my samsung s22+, I never even realized that Android asks you for your pattern every 2 days because I had to manually unlock my old phones so often.
