Hello! Some info about me is up on my website: https://wreckedcarzz.com
My father has a fw 16" per my suggestion, and I want to get one as well, but they don’t offer financing and are fucking expensive. Like shit the bed, last time I looked the diy version was like $2,300 for the upgraded amd cpu and gpu but with no ram, storage… I’m not made of money 😫
But the joke is that normies have no idea what Linux is and even less of a clue about where to get machines that are made for it.
Brb just going to pop over to best buy and look at their offerings of Linux powered machines
Step 1: obtain tool
Step 2: ‘borrow’ one car per night, add as many miles/kilometers as possible
Step 3: watch dealerships shit themselves
Step 4: be the silent reason why all affected vehicles get free fixes
That last one sounds absolutely positive though
I use Obtainium and run this (play store link) in the background/scheduled. I use their software on my machines and like it so have been running their mobile solution for a few years too.
I guess you could download the apk and then scan it before installing, manually but that would get tiring fast. I don’t know of any automated system for that.
(hahaha)
Why is “ios” the only one not in all-caps? Why does the apple hq list their mobile system while the other two list their desktop/workstation/server systems? Why does each get a different proportion of the screen/why aren’t they equally sized/why are they not stacked vertically? Why is this man not using dark mode, and how is the obvious and glaring light bleed at the bottom-left of his monitor just get accepted?
This picture, it frustrates me on many levels.
Oof. I have my VMs getting backed up to another machine so theoretically (untested) I should be able to recover with less than a day of data loss (very minimal for this box). The annoying part would be getting it hooked up to a monitor and keyboard, since it’s under an end-table in the living room.
This is the first issue in like… 15 months? Hopefully it stays rather uneventful.
I’m always up late (it’s 5:19a), though a good bit more than usual lately. But I did the upgrade because I was anxious, had nothing to do, and there were no users utilizing the machine.
Yay, it only took 2 hours and the help of an llm since the upgrade corrupted my lvm metadata! Little bit of post cleanup and verifying everything works. Now I can go to sleep (it’s 5am).
Wasn’t that bad, but not exactly relaxing. And when my VMs threw a useless error (‘can’t start need manual fix’) I might have slightly panicked…
I mean, so are multi-core cpus and anything above ddr2 ram, 7,200 rpm hard drives; you don’t need much for basic computing. Or 3G cellular data speeds, or DSL internet at home. Or over-the-air 480p broadcasting and movies on VHS. But we aren’t limiting ourselves to those ancient standards - why are we accepting any less here? If it was new, sure, cost-cutting blah blah… but it’s not 2010 anymore. USB3 is 17 years old, that’s an absolute eternity in the tech sphere.
“hey Tim, we are too damn cheap to spend the extra 4 cents and get USB 3 for all ports, even though it’s been a standard for almost 2 decades… what should we do to help the users realize they got a piece of shit case?”
“fuck em and piss em off”
“I like your style”
Fill your stomach for life with this one weird trick!
Carry the coffee maker. It’s your mug now.
Yeah, for chat I’ve tried a few systems but honestly I already had signal, they understand that signal chats aren’t texting, the privacy is important to me, and most of all… why rock the boat?
It’s not self-hosted yeah yeah but not everything needs to be. Password management, todo lists, calendar and contacts, grocery lists… sure yeah. But nothing for chat really struck me. And I don’t want to teach everyone how it works just to test a ‘maybe’ alternative.
Ha, I use both wg and zt, for different situations. ZT for multi-player for old games with friends via ‘LAN’ across the WAN, wg for ‘actual’ VPN through my vps.
Though with zt I’m grandfathered on the old free tier, and they try pretty hard to get me to switch. Last time I logged in they had a full-page ‘you should upgrade to our new plans and features’. But I’m happy on the free level, just gaming.

If you never change what’s on the screen, you’ll never notice the burn-in

:p I’ve got laptops, most recently a ThinkPad X13(s? I don’t remember) Gen 2, but I want the gpu so I can retire/repurpose my Acer Predator. The hardware is solid and still doing well, but the execution of basically everything else is horrible. And it weighs several pounds, I can use it as a weapon with ease. It was 1 of 2 (after tons of research) laptops at the time with both cpu and gpu from amd, 5/6 years ago now. MSRP was $2700 if I remember right, but I got it for $1400 which is about what it was worth.
I don’t have stripey socks or a 🦈 :( but I do have a 🐯 that’s good for cuddling :3
