This post is very timely. I’ve recently gone down the USB cable testing rabbit hole. Wish it weren’t needed, but alas.

Also just learned about GaN charging hubs. I’ll take “Things I didn’t know existed until a few days ago that I absolutely need right now for $1,000, Alex!”

I’d heard of Framework, Tuxedo, and system76, but not the others. Thanks for the pointers!

I just meant like if Joplin ever stopped working or vanished overnight. I know it might seem like a contrived scenario, but I’ve always been a little skittish about apps that don’t store files in plain text in case I want/need to use a different editor. Sounds like that hasn’t been an issue for you, though, which is cool.

I see Logseq recommended a lot, but does it still try to force you to use bullet lists only?

Do you ever regret that Joplin does not store notes in plain text? (meaning you couldn’t edit your notes in a plain text editor if you wanted to)

I’m running Linux Mint Cinnamon (X11) on a laptop w/ Tiger VNC Server, and I’m connecting to it from another laptop running Fedora Silverblue w/ Gnome (Wayland).

Does ssh mean command line only or is there such a thing as graphical remote desktop sharing over ssh?

I’m looking for a graphical remote desktop experience.

EDIT: I may have answered my own question. With some searching, I stumbled upon this guide for remote desktop sharing by establishing a VNC session through an SSH tunnel. In the guide, the author uses TigerVNC. I’ll have to explore this some more when I have time later on.

Thanks for the tip. I’ve installed TigerVNC server on the host machine and connected to it from another laptop. Now my problem is that when I connect, it takes me to a clean session instead of showing me the existing session. A quick internet search and I stumbled upon x0vncserver, but no instructions how to install it. Or is it already installed? When I issue x0vncserver on the host, I get x0vncserver: command not found. Any tips on what I should try or search next?

On one hand, I was certain all three of Ovi, Wilson, and Carly would retire as Caps. I guess with Carlson gone and Ovi likely retiring after this season, Wilson gets the “C” next season.

I’m not following. I understand how Gas Buddy works (crowd sourced data entry), but how does that preclude free and open source software? For example, look at OpenStreetMap, open license database w/ a whole ecosystem of free and open source apps built around it.

raspberry pi and an HDD with family (remote)

Is this the way to go for off-site backups w/ family? In terms of low power draw, uptime, etc.

That’s a handy tool, thanks for posting it. Do you happen to know how the lists are sorted? It’s not alphabetical.

I’ll have to look into these. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for the tip about JetKVM. Does the JetKVM device itself require an ethernet connection to the router or can it connect over wifi? (from what I can tell, it’s the former)

Thanks for confirming. Your understanding is correct, I just want a way to grab some “clean” screenshots or videos of the laptop while it’s in boot or BIOS parts of the system. I have a video capture card in my “cart” but thought I’d put this out there to the lemmyverse before I smash that “Buy” button.

EDIT: I ordered this video capture card, we’ll see how it goes!

Clown take. This comment would make a lot more sense if the original post were made by some cry baby throwing a tantrum after getting spawn camped; however, in this case, the original post is spreading the word about how and where a product’s dev team can be reached going forward (and how/where they cannot be reached anymore). We very much need these kinds of announcements.

Does your group ever use video calls and/or screen sharing?

So Mumble for voice chat and Matrix for text chat?

How do fundraising drives like this work? Will OpenAI’s parent company issue a new class of stock or something?

When you say traffickers joined your rooms to post spam, how did they find you? Is it like email where they can just try every possible email address at a particular domain or was your room posted publicly on your website or something and that’s how they found you?
