Maybe another dame has ruffled her feathers, and she's running from her checkered past.

In a way, *takes long slow pull of cigarette* aren't we all?

If you are in deep trouble and/or your owner doesn't feed you enough treats, type something nonsensical

I remember the Ubuntu Touch had a feature like that that kinda worked, but they never fully commited to it.

As for doing it through Termux, I'm not convinced that X11 works terribly well in Android for it to reliably extend a display to another screen. I've never tried though, so I could be we way off

Very good shout on last -- I see the boot up and power down states very nicely described there. Sadly, no hibernate info is there, so I would still need to check journalctl for that info

Oh wow, I'm always surprised to hear about the coding habits of prolific devs. So you dont use a local IDE? You run termux and the code in vi/emacs on server?

I agree that metal is better than plastic, but it feels like they're trying to categorise water with soda as a commodity

As I'm getting more and more into keyboards, I've realised I dont want a laptop anymore.

I want a powerful phone (16GB RAM, 8-cores) that I can:

  • a) use as a phone (smallish, please)
  • b) use as a dockable workstation

That is, I can come home from work, slide my phone into a USB-C dock and start typing away on my Linux desktop with my fancy keyboard

Oh, and don’t come at me with stickers.

Well then. Maybe you could wrap your heart in duc-ta-a-ape! *runs away sobbing*

Water. Fresh drinking water straight from the tap.

And yet I'm seeing lots of people in the UK start to buy bottled water. Worse: canned water.

The shittification of public services in favour of private products is a creep I'm not paying enough attention to

I'm looking for a reliable way to log when my laptop is:

  • powered down
  • boots up
  • goes to sleep
  • wakes up

Currently I'm checking both the systemd-suspend and tlp systemctl services, but these don't really feel very robust, and I don't have TLP installed on all my machines.

Is there an easier way to do this, or a better systemctl unit that logs all the power states of my machine. Preferably laptop agnostic?

Laptop snippet so far:

journalctl --since -9days -u systemd-suspend -u tlp \
    | grep -P "Finish|Start|Stopped" | sed '/.*Finished TLP.*/d;
            s|Starting TLP.*|╭╴System Boot  |;
 s|Starting System Suspend.*|┤ · Sleep      |;
 s|Finished System Suspend.*|├ · Wake       |;
             s|Stopped TLP.*|╰╴Power Off    |;' \
    | sed -r 's|^(.*:[0-9]+)+:[0-9]+.*:(.*)|   \1 \2 |'

My work has given me a remote windows desktop to use, that I access using AWS.

Through this windows desktop (accessed via a chrome web-browser), I can SSH into a compute node to do work.

I dont actually need this virtual desktop, I'd rather just SSH from my local machine directly to the compute node, using the remote desktop's network without having to spawn the desktop itself.

Ive been reading up about SSM agents[0] as a solution, but am unsure if I have the priveledges to do this myself.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/session-manager-getting-started-enable-ssh-connections.html#ssh-connections-enable

Is this something I can easily do using the AWS credentials that I have?

I used to believe he was an aggressive racist man who tried to keep black players out of the league as violently as possible, giving rise to media like Soundgarden's Ty Cobb

But I'm now reading through his Wikipedia article, and I can't quite work him out.

He's definitely aggressive, and has a "hard-headed fuck-you-all" attitude to life. It looks like the racist allegations against him might have just been slander caused by another player (Schmidt).

There's one altercation he has with a cement worker whose work he ruined by stepping in it, and then escalated into something more.... but as far as I can see that's it.

He just seems like a good player who's a bit heavy handed and loud mouthed, and fights anyone who he perceives does him wrong, regardless of background or skin color.

There's one story that made me giggle a bit:

Cobb climbed into the stands and attacked Lucker, who it turned out was handicapped (he had lost all of one hand and three fingers on his other hand in an industrial accident).

Some onlookers shouted at him to stop because the man had no hands, to which Cobb reportedly retorted, "I don't care if he got no feet!"

According to Russo, the crowd cheered Cobb on in the fight. Though extremely rare in the 21st century, attacking fans was not so unusual an activity in the early years of baseball.

The US blocked high power graphics cards to specific countries, and then got all shaken up when their money moat was pole-vaulted by an embargo'd country wielding jank cards.

Why is this a big deal, exactly?

Who benefits if the US has the best AI, and who benefits if it's China?

Is this like the Space Race, where it's just an effort to spit on each other, but ultimately no one really loses, and cool shit gets made?

What does AI "supremacy" mean?

I'm glad at least one decent person made it through, but the other one, christ.

Also:

  • I DO NOT GIVE A SHIT THAT YOU WERE IN THE ARMY. It clearly didn't make you stronger.
  • I DO NOT GIVE A SHIT THAT YOU'RE (FAKING) WELSH. It was unnoticeable and had no effect.
  • I DO NOT GIVE A SHIT THAT YOU ARE A MOTHER/PRIEST. Anyone who uses that as a basis of trust is genuinely twisted in the head.

It's hard to characterize in a single sentence, so I'll just break it down into its constituent parts.

The Beep

When the laundry cycle finishes it does the following:

  • It beeps super loudly for 5 seconds
  • If you don't run to switch it off, it will wait 30 more seconds and then continue to beep super loudly for 5 seconds
  • If you switch it off whilst it's beeping, it will continue to finish its beeping
  • There is no volume setting nor any way to switch this off.

The Door

When it's finished. It does not release. That beeping sound from earlier to tell you to come get your laundry? No no no, that was just the "come and watch me drain" alarm.

  • Switching it off has no effect on the door release.
  • It releases whenever it wants. It could be 5 minutes, it could be 20.
  • When it does release, all you will get is a sound, so you better be around to hear it.
  • If you miss this sound, it will lock itself again 10-15 minutes later and rotate your clothes.
  • It will then repeat the release process.

HELP ME. HE-ELP ME.

I have the option to block users, but do I have a way of following or highlighting them in discussions?

I know that each user gets an RSS feed, but is there a way of using this within lemmy, similar to how I can click on "Subscribed" for communities?

The closest I have is this UBlockOrigin rule:

## e.g. highlight users: "tetris11" "kambusha" "Macniel"
## 
lemmy.ml##a[href*="tetris11"],a[href*="kambusha"],a[href*="Macniel"]:style(background-color: yellow !important; outline: 2px solid red !important;)

Which seems to work, but it's very cumbersome to write out rules like that

Alright, so how exactly was the Hellfish treasure buried, who setup the statue with the light, who kept the statue powered and tuned to the exact coordinates of the treasure, and - most importantly - who was sending the letters?
