bandcamp is pretty great. Granted, they are still a for-profit company; a popular community based solution would be nice. But they do let you download lossless file to self-host or just listen on device.

The only complain is the lack of classical music (not modern/contemporary classical) on there. But I would imagine most classical music is public domain by now. I just don’t know where to find them…

Edit: found it: www.classiccat.net or internet archive has a huge collection of classical music.

baseless_discourse,

I see some people use catbox.moe , but I dont know a lot about them.

baseless_discourse,

Yeah, I was wondering why I have desync issues couple days ago watching videos with my wife.

Modern YouTube videos are generally fine, but many other site has poor support for popular codecs.

I am no expert, but if we are allowed to design everything from ground up, I believe personal electric vehicle (e-bike etc, abbreviated as PEV) for suburb, transit/bike/walk in city, and high speed rail between cities are probably the way to go.

City should be mostly car free, people can transit to suburb via transit, and to other city via rail. People move within city using walk/bike/tram. Vehicle besides delivery and commercial vehicle should be discouraged from entering the city, by removing in-city parking and setup no-go zones for private vehicles.

Even in the U.S. most people in suburb live rather close to a town center (less than 15 mins with PEV or bike). Thus efficient transit from town center to city can be a good idea. People will be discouraged from driving to city due to the lack of road and parking within cities.

For long form travel, people should move via high speed rail. Then take local travel options once arrived. High speed rail provide a faster and more comfortable travel alternative to driving.

Finally, I believe for people living in rural areas (an hour to any town center on PEV), cars and electric cars are their only option. If they want to enter city or suburb, they can drive to the nearest town center and take transit.

Is anyone here using their hardware TPM chips for credentials?

I’m curious about the possible uses of the hardware Trusted Protection Module for automatic login or transfer encryption. I’m not really looking to solve anything or pry. I’m just curious about the use cases as I’m exploring network attached storage and to a lesser extent self hosting. I see a lot of places where public...

baseless_discourse,

Can you explain a bit on how the key erasure works? AFAIK TPM only refuse to release the key when certain PCR dont match, is there a setting to let it erase key?

baseless_discourse,

I have read that article, it doesn’t seem to mention that TPM will erase key if a different OS is loaded, maybe I missed something?

baseless_discourse,

If the device is stolen, your disk is still encrypted at all time. If you believe your OS’s login system is reasonably secure, then the attacker should have no way to access your data: they cannot access the data from software because it is blocked by login screen, they cannot access the data from hardware because it is protected by FDE.

One of the misconceptions I had before is that I assumed that the disk will be decrypted when you enter the LUKS password. This is not true, the password is loaded into the ram, and only decrypts necessary parts to RAM. All the data on the disk is never decrypted, even when you are working in your OS.

baseless_discourse,

Isn’t hyperlinked reference the default? I dont even know how to turn it off.

baseless_discourse,

I actually never know it can be paired to more than one device. LOL

My need for bluetooth headphone is very simple, if I can understand youtube videos, I am happy. And I am using WF-1000MX4, which works wonderfully just using the gnome gui.

I never need to worry about pipwire or pulse audio etc.

I thought it is literally nugget made from chicken butt, which many people do eat BTW.

Chinese people are not big on deer, bear, or monkey; and of course many animals that are not native to China, like crocodiles, ostrich, etc.

Many deep water fish are also not traditionally popular, like tuna and salmon. Chinese do eat them now, but mostly because of japanese influence.

Here is the google translate link: zh-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/zh-hant/雞屁股?

qilixiang (七里香) literally translate to: fragrance from seven miles (Chinese mile, which is half a km) away.

I think a good and easy way to discover new people is to follow hashtags.

I follow couple local pets work-related hobby and urbanism hastags, and I was able to discover new conversation and new people in these space quite quickly.

baseless_discourse,

Even on x11? I am assuming they dont support one-to-one gesture on x11, right?

I like to use two unrelated concepts in mathematics to form my username. In this case, I picked base in topology and domain of discourse in logic. I feel like imposing some form of topological structure on the domain of discourse seems like a nice idea.

Realistically, every topology has a base, however the idea of a baseless space sounds pretty cool in my head (basically means you cannot uniquely generate continuous function just from its behavior on the base, in this case it is equivalent to the only base being the entire space). Hence the name “baseless discourse”.

As for it happens to make sense in day-to-day English, it is a happy accident :)

baseless_discourse,

It depends on the diet, I grow up with a diet that is high on oil, chilli, and veggie, I had no problem pooping everyday.

Then I went to college, the only veggies I can find are overcooked broccoli or cold iceberg lettuce. I can easily go a week without pooping, since my digestive system is just not used to these kind of diet.

Obviously it is extremely uncomfortable to go weeks without pooping. I would prefer to poop like normal, but I cannot find the diet I am used to in college.
