Unsurprising, but knowing Microsoft they'll still fuck it up somehow.

fun fact! In french, the slang word for penis (bite) is feminine, so it's la bite.

Makes total sense

Stuff like a pretty case with slots for optical drives, a laptop with a shitton of ports and all-day battery life or anything else that seems to go against the trends.

This thread is for complaining about how you can't find it and (maybe) finding it thanks to someone else.

I want to get a head start on the technique d'informatique college course i am going to take next (school) year, and i figured comptia A+ is as good a place as any to start.

The title is self-explanatory, but i would like to add i would much prefer a book than a video. I am fine with paying for it, but then it would have to be physical. Video recommendations are also welcome though, because they could help anyone else who is asking themselves the same thing.

<>Mods, please remove this if it isn't open-ended enough

because it's the communications platform for gamers™.

But seriously discord screenshare was a massive painpoint for gamers switching to linux, so it's very nice to see it finally, properly, solved.

Note that the flathub version has not yet been updated. The version with the screenshare is 0.0.79.

Wayland and audio is fixed, but only on the canary branch for the moment, this isnt lazy either, they changed the whole screenshare flow to suit linux's permission prompts

One of the computers in my homelab has a dvd drive, is there a piece of (linux) software that allows me to rip dvd's easily with a webui?

Basically i want to get a nice .mkv out of the dvd, and be able to do it from anywhere on the local network.

It is just about steamOS though.

The investigation did not spotlight the similarly-named Matrix open source communication protocol.

I want to setup a bunch of laptops to be web kiosks, I'll organize my wants into a list so that it's easier to skim:

  • Open a version of Firefox with the normal ui, tabs and all.
  • Automatically enters a session with no user input on reboot
  • Doesn't allow doing anything but interacting with Firefox (kinda obvious, kiosk and all)
  • Auto-login
  • Automatic updates, with them being applied on restart
  • Firefox settings reset on reboot

Nice to haves:

  • nice Plymouth screen to hide the scary code on startup.
  • completely block any attempts to change configuration on Firefox
  • ad-block
  • easy deployment to a bunch of machines.

If these sound like pretty strict requirements, they are, I'm doing this to attempt to get an internship by making my school's web kiosk laptops not suck (they currently run a janky install of Ubuntu 18.04)

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I'd be glad to add more information.

I saw something from a discord dev (can't find it, so grain of salt) about how there was interest recently to do it, but they'd have to work on other stuff that affected everyone first, and they'd probably get it done by q4 2024, guess they were right.

I think before then the whole linux graphics and audio space hadn't really stabilized enough for them to be interested.

And yes, vesktop did it first, but discord's version is quite a bit more polished

Hypixel.net is both their website and mc server adress.

Is it just that https is on port 443 and minecraft is on port 25565?

And if that is the case, can i do something similar by making a reverse proxy have two seperate server blocks for the one domain, with different ports?

Here are the basic photos of the rig:

This is the plastic and rubber manufacturing:

The residue from that goes into the turbofuel refineries:

some of it is packaged, the rest gets burned in 8 2x overclocked fuel generators for power:

But that's not all! I had to do quite a bit of infra to get the oil rig working, like:

Oil pipelines:

A train network:

(the last picture is the view from the tower i showed off in my last post here.)

and a compacted coal production building thing:

here are the details about the input/output:

inputs: outputs:
480 crude oil 205.5 plastic
165 coal 92 rubber
165 sulfur 45 packaged turbofuel
4000MW

All machines working at 100% with zero waste

please ask if you have any questions.

EDIT: here is the map
