@StarkRG nodds in agreeement In a #classroom-like #setup we'd more likely see some centralized, self-hosted #managment solution like #Landscape or #RustDesk being used.

  • I can see why they did this: It's clearly inspired by tools like #AnyDesk and I do have to applaud them for that.

And if this acts similar to #WebCall and merely acts as a "Rendrevous-Server" then traffic and thus costs should be quite low.

I'd still hope they #OpenSource the #Backend so that there's another competitor to #Dayon and #RustDesk available...

  • In the meantime just setting up a sudo admin user with #Pubkey-only auth on #SSH is likely the way to do some admin stuff.

Maybe one day @RaspberryPi will even add #PXE - #NetBoot capabilities to their #RaspberryPi and thus allow for #DisklessWorkstation - Setups, saving a crapton on #MicroSD cards that are prone to get lost and/or stolen...

I‘m currently preparing the DIY setup for my new gravelbike (8bar TFLSBERG V3 steel).

Questions I have:
- Should I stick to black or add some colorful pieces?
- Which tires should I buy?
- Is there any insurance for self-assembled bicycles?

What I know for sure is that I’ll go for the Shimano GRX 820 1-12 group, RedShift shockstop stem, tubeless wheels, SON-dynamo & light as well as an old leather saddle.

Any recommendations for seatposts, tubeless-milk, bartape, chain-wax, usb-plugs, pedals (different click system) or handy gadgets are welcome!

My #NixOS #setup. Even when I #ported it once to #another #machine, I #forgot to add the #user #password. So I kind of went into a #ghost user #session. All i did is #reboot and chose previous #generation corrected my #config and that's all. No need for #backup, #rescue #disk etc. I corrected my configs, now it's truly portable. All my setup is #rock #solid #stable and never #broke it though I use a lot of #unstable #packages. #Nix and #NixOS are just 🔥 ❤️

#PewDiePie has embraced #Arch #Linux, sharing his #setup on #Instagram with the caption, "Had to be done."

He made the switch to enjoy greater #customization and #control over his #tech #experience.

This move has excited the Linux community, with many speculating that his influence could lead to a #boost in the platform's popularity among his followers.

Why is it that artist sketch book format is usually Arch A aka. 9x12" yet any scanner with a bed larger than 8.5x11" is at least $1,000 USD?

A DSLR is also way above my price range. I don't really know what to do. I'm tired of my crappy iPhone pictures poorly edited in Photoshop.

Artists of Mastodon, what's your setup to quickly digitize your analog media with ok quality?

Comment on YT by JdeB:
"And FYI: now a racist politician and very much in power [Wilders] shifts the narrative to 'integration'; which is a synonym for racial profiling and consequent measures against, you guessed it, islam. It's a setup. Willfully provoked by the Israeli government and Mossad."

@xeniac I know that this is the case, but it's not a technical unavoidance despite the #RaspberryPi being a non-#UEFI - #arm device.

  • Even on the old, #32bit boards.

The solution in that regard would be to boot into a #live / #setup mode like with #RaspberryPiOS for #i586-based #PCs and extend it to a setup that allows creating a new custom image with #LUKS - #FDE enabled and properly encrypted.

  • OFC on a #Pi0W that would mean one would've to plug in a 2nd MicroSD with a USB-Adapter but that's not the Point.

I'm not even demanding much, just a simple #TUI / #CLI setup like @ubuntu / #UbuntuServer has with basic customizations.

  • I'm not even expecting it to go so far as to offer including #dropbear - #SSH in the #initramfs so one can boot into the encrypted install and unlock it remotely. Just gimme the blinking cursor at the boot asking me to enter the password for the encrypted partition...
