  • This sums my view up. I would have voted for Pierre, if it was him vs Trudeau. But....Carney came along and seems logical and competent. Plus I can't read or watch anything about the conservatives without them applying some grade-school level bullying tactic. Libs got my vote this time.

  • Divinci Code was great! Are you planning any new novels?

  • Its my first server, and I'm not a network admin. Guess I'm not fluent in the lingo.

  • I run a headless Ubuntu server and Mint as my daily driver. I tried Pop OS first, which was great, other than I hated the task bar and had some problems with some apps. I also tried Kubuntu which gave me problem after problem. Mint made everything easy.

  • I agree, but does the article? I've read it twice and I only see what I quoted.

  • “Anyone who is here on a visitor visa who carries out law-breaking will be deported from this country,”

    What does this have to do with Palestine? Pierre is not getting my vote but this seems way out of context.

  • Is there an EU operating system you'd recommend here?

  • I think you are. I appreciate we all have unique politics but let's stop fucking lying and embrace those differences with respect.

  • I installed pop os yesterday after repeatedly saying I hate Microsoft all week. Bye windows 11!

  • I've ordered one thing this week, first in 2 months, was unable to find it elsewhere. Cancelled prime while I was there.

  • I think the opposite. It works well for every day folks, but those of us with extra hardware, gaming peripherals, macros, etc have a real struggle getting it all to work, easily, out of the box, on the first try.

  • Sure let's start a witch hunt banning people and companies who don't align with our unique individual politics. What could go wrong?

  • From fdroid, Feudal Tactics and Antimine.

  • I don't think you understood the question :)

  • I was against them for years. As a prank, a friend bought me bright yellow ones. I only wore them privately in the house.

    I wore them down after 10 years and finally just replaced them. I have a fancier slipper style pair for when I go to peoples houses. I can't not wear them now. Buy them. Love them. They're cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Magical.

  • EMT does but its not the same. Show got repetitive, so I guess they changed it up, but its crap now.

    Searxng - default firefox search

    I've got searxng running nicely, I can successfully set it as my default search (firefox) via clicking the URL bar and adding it to my search list.

    However, when i actually search, it's searching "https://192.168.1.65/search" instead of "http://192.168.1.65:8887/search". Nothing changes this for the life of me. This results in firefox's 'unable to connect' screen, since the url and http vs https are wrong.

    I'm hosting locally on my network server and I have no desire to open it to the outside network.

    Back Up Strategies?

    I started self-hosting recently. Getting the hang of it, and have immich and paperless-ngx running. Other stuff too, but those 2 have data i'd like to retain.

    I'd like to commit to switching over to these services, and possibly others in the future, however I need to figure out back ups.

    Until now, I've kept all data on my NAS, and back ups on flash drives. Some i keep here, some i keep off-site (3-2-1 strategy), all encrypted.

    I'd like to follow a similar strategy, but going forward i'll likely have tons of meta data and configs associated with these files and services, which will be just as valuable to backup. Is it simple as copying a folder over, or is there popular back up strategy most people use. Again i'm new, not trying to over complicate things, but don't want all my eggs in one basket.

    to LVM or not?

    Noob starting first server. Installed Ubuntu server, and opted for LVM. However, will that cause me problems on a headless server if I get a power outage and need to reboot? I think yes. Is there a solution, or should i remove LVM before i go too deep setting things up?

    Monitor settings reset on boot

    I'm running Pop! OS. Having a problem where i need to reconfig my monitor settings every time i boot.

    Hardware is GTX 1080. Monitors are as follows:

    • GPU DVI to DVI monitor
    • GPU display port to DVI monitor
    • GPU HDMI to 5.1 audio reciever, with HDMI to HDMI monitor 3.

    On boot up monitors 1 and 2 are mirrored, and 3 may or may not need to be turned on and off a few times to work properly.

    Everything is up to date, including OS and Nvidia drivers. I duel boot with Windows 10, and Windows works perfectly.

    Python for Kids

    What's the best way to teach my kid programming. I don't know how. He's interested. He's done well in school with Scratch. He's expressed interest in Python, owns a Thumby, but never gets too far on his own. Instead of a Winter sport, we're leaning towards a Python class, however there's none in person. How can i help my kid embrace his passion and learn this skill which will help him his whole life.

    He's got Mu installed and has perused youtube tutorials, but they dont hold his interest. Any help is appreciated. Edit: He's 10.

    How do you smoke weed indoors without odor

    There's got to be some technology that does this. No sploofs!

    Currently i crack a window, put a small square fan in it, and blow my exhaust through the fan. I use a vaporizer which cuts down the smell a lot, but there is still a lingering odor the night of, and sometimes the following morning.

    I would prefer no odor at all, immediately. Any help is appreciated.

    Android Auto/Carplay (or alternative) with Degoogled phone?

    I've been using GrapheneOS for over 2 years now. Love it. I cannot help but feel I'm missing out when i go on a road trip and have to constantly glance at my phone (OsmAnd~), instead of using the perfectly good display built into my vehicle.

    Any good alternatives? I've considered using an old phone, or recently I've seen Android "AI Boxes". Both connect to the internet through bluetooth/hotspot on your phone. Not sure of the privacy implications or amount of Google in both.

    Not looking for 3rd party screens or phone mounts as options.

    to Linux from Windows as a daily driver

    My plan is to buy an NVMe today, install linux as a dual boot, but use linux as a daily driver, to see if it meets my needs before committing to it.

    My main needs are gaming, local AI (stable diffusion and oobabooga), and browser stuff.

    I have experience with Mint (recently) and Ubuntu (long ago). Any problems with my plan? Will my OS choice meet my needs?

    Thanks!
