Hotzilla,

Basic rule of any new tech, first geeks, then porn and after that the normal people

Hotzilla,

I know at least few components in the power grid that run on top of linux

Hotzilla, (edited )

I don’t think so, main reason is XP was still heavily backwards compatible to 95, 98, even DOS based software. Many control software for industry only support to XP, because jump to windows 7 was too heavy. If anything supports windows 7, it is really easy to port to windows 10. Main reason is the driver support, because win 7 having new driver architecture.

Windows 10 will be the next “forever stuck” OS, because end of Internet Explorer on it means that there are tens of thousands of industrial software that require IE, and cannot ever be ported to win 11.

I'm new to networking and self-hosting and have no idea where to start.

I’ve been slowly working my way though a list of skills to learn, both to put on my resume and as personal growth. Networking is the next thing on this list. I am not sure what I am looking for, but I want to start another project. I have built many a personal computer, but the world of networking is a pretty foreign concept...

Hotzilla, (edited )

I would suggest more learn by doing approach. Learning OSI model etc is nice, but it is quite jargon :)

Use some old PC as a server, and get some network cards into it, and use it as firewall/router. Route your home network/NAT/DNS/DCHP through it. Raspberry Pi’s are nice, but their hw is still bit limited.

OPNSense is quite nice and easy free and open source firewall/router solution.

If you want to add bit of flexibility, you can use some virtualization platform like VMware in to the machine, so that you can run OPNSense in it, with some other virtual servers.

Then when you get things working, you can start looking in to VLAN’s, because they are quite important part of enterprise networking. Most cheap switches nowadays support VLAN’s out of the box.

Hotzilla,

GPT4 was able to explain that

Hotzilla,

Could be easily made 50% space saving by only iffin all odds and return even on else. Maybe one if before to handle overflow to avoid wrong even if over the last if.

Hotzilla,

Making money for shareholders

Hotzilla,

In general those countries are just three companies in a trench coat, stealing the money from citizens. US including.

Hotzilla,

Space is still bad in filenames, really annoying to use in console

Hotzilla,

“spaces are explicitly disallowed in current standards and are substituted with underscores or full stops.” This is from warez scene naming convention. In general I think people used dots, but both are ok.

Hotzilla,

Filesystem itself is fully ok with it, space is just a character as any. Problem comes with console.

e.g. you want to delete file called “not important.pdf”.

You type in: rm not important.pdf, and hit enter. Didn’t hit tab because you knew the filename and didn’t arse with it.

Outcome is that you just deleted important.pdf which contained your crypto wallet address which you were suppose to tattoo on your left arm.

Hotzilla,

He speaks both languages, and in general Swedish Finns curse in finnish

In 2000 I was running my first Linux homelab server, I ran chmod -R 666 /, it did not end well.

Hotzilla,

Yes, I learned very quickly that +1 in this flag syntax means execution, so first 6 means that owner of the file does not have execution permission, which means that nothing is allowed to execute in the system.

Hotzilla,

In Finland gambling/slot machines/betting is monopoly from state and it is not allowed to be advertised. It is age controlled and all the money from the gambling go to charity/tax, and gambling addiction control.

I do like that system, even if it sometimes feels bit controlling people from theirself.

Hotzilla,

Altho you could just have mustamakkara, so black budding sausage, aka blood sausage, to make it black.

Hotzilla,

Some crazy Tamperelainen has probably made one

Hotzilla,

No, the point is to train the AI.

Hotzilla,

Counter question, what is the use case here?

I have only ever needed this feature with NSFW content. In Lemmy I have easily and better way resolved it by having another account with nsfw instance. This creates even better outcome than the multi community feature. All clients easily support two accounts, and you can switch between them in few presses.
