Aurix,

It is fine, but then again I update it often too late which is actually pretty bad. The problem is Nextcloud pushes new features and a high frequency schedule of releases with those at an alarming rate of speed. Perhaps for corporate environments it is not as big of a deal as a professional team can fix obscure bugs with their knowledge and experience on their mirrored test servers, but home users don’t have these resources available and public community knowledge and bug fixes need time which that release schedule hinders.

I still wouldn’t say it is bad by default, simply because somehow it runs pretty stable for me since a decade. Updates are a pain though with many breaking changes and little bugs.

Aurix,

LibreOffice wants to call with broken rendering on Windows, but the changelog mentions new tasty features. But FOSS can do it, Debian can. Those project managers should learn from their approach, whatever it is.

Aurix, (edited )

No, because the headline has no information on what it is. And when I opened the site indeed it is devoid of informational content.

Aurix,

Hate the clickbait article naming. Downvoted.

Aurix,

Not quite correct. They didn’t start charging for API usage. They banned it and pretended it could be paid for with completely absurd prices nobody could reasonably afford.

Aurix,

It doesn’t if you pay for it.

Aurix,

Though the application overall is stable and usable, it should not be considered safe for critically important work. There are numerous bugs and half working implementations. Pull requests are greatly appreciated.

Not very reassuring.

Aurix,

JuffEd looks from the screenshots as the closest one.

[not solved] I think I messed something up in the router settings but cannot understand what... now I have no internet connection

Hello! I (tried, at least) converted an old laptop to a Debian home server, and I was trying to set up duckdns.org and to enable port forwarding on my router. internet connection was working, I installed packages, docker, immich, etc, and then suddenly (I don’t know exactly when) it refuses to connect to the internet. It does...

Aurix,

Go to the outer status page. The router should display whether it has an internet connection to your provider. If no, then your router/modem has no credentials or another issue preventing access.

If it shows as working, then you can narrow it down to incorrect DNS and IP routing. Perhaps dynamic IP allocation is set to off or another configuration error or bug, in which case you might need to reset all the router settings. Then, is it only broken for a single end device?

Aurix,

The new reddit icon looks like when kids draw on teeth for giggles.

Starting to use "soulseek" do I need VPN

So I use a VPN when torrenting as per usual but with Soulseek I wish to share my music with others and that requires me to open a port. I have no problem doing so I just do not pay for a VPN that can do this at the current price I am paying. Is it possible/what are the chances of me getting in trouble ISP wise from using...

Aurix,

Soulseek is Peer To Peer like a torrent. You will likely run into legal trouble, if that program is monitored more heavily.

Did deep sleep broke for anyone else recently or is it just me?

I was running KDE Neon on ThinkBook 15 G2 and had deep sleep working after adding mem_sleep_default=deep to GRUB_CMDLINE. It worked for a while until it didn’t. I didn’t do anything other than running regulat updates. Since couple weeks back, when going to sleep, it shows BIOS Recovery progress bar or something and restarts....

Aurix,

Yeah, my sleep schedule is pretty bad since the holiday… Oh, Oooooh.

Aurix,

I would also like to add Windows Photo and Microsoft Paint. /s Please stop giving “alternatives” when these do not even closely match the featureset of a given application unless asked for advice.

Aurix,

Barely anybody uses all of the features, but one might be enough or the person is used to the UI. It still is not helpful and slightly unfriendly to assume the person doesn’t know what they need. Like when I ask for Excel, then I mean it. I don’t need a markdown table or the Word “Insert Table” feature.

Aurix,

Firefox is a good browser and unfortunately the only fully independent one. But I also believe there might be a bigger Chromium development split happening. Nothing increases action and unites people like a monopoly pushing greed.

Aurix,

Fair point, they receive Google money. But its technological backend is not bound to Chromium.

Aurix,

What a horrible way to handle this. A bit like YouTube demonetization policies.

Is there an artist so horrible that no matter how hard you try that you cannot separate their art from them?

Similar to the recent question about artists where you can successfully separate them from their art. Are there any artists who did something so horrible, so despicable, that it has instantly invalidated all art that they have had any part in?

Aurix,

Rammstein is terrible. Clear cut allegations of systematic exploitation and lawyers who tried to silence big newspapers.

Aurix,

Police in Germany absuses regularly databases to trsck and background check for personal or political purposes.

Aurix,

While it should have been opt-in it is not that dramatic. The server owner can see what is played anyways. And since the primary use case is a home and friends setup it is vastly different to a Netflix scale privacy break.

Aurix,

In my slightly covid unrelated case, intracranial tension changes cause very subtle sharpness/clearness vision changes. So look out for these things, there might be more problems associated with it! Like IIH, CSF leaks or venous stenosis. It can cause a wide variety of seemingly random neurological pressure changes. Beware of substances affecting it like caffeine, weed, fat-soluble thiamine and Lithium. These can reduce or induce serious problems especially if the intracranial pressure is unstable. And while these might possibly be useful, be aware it is poorly understood overall and can cause damage.

Aurix,

Since you can never now for sure how a company handles hashing, always assume the worst. You will fare better.
