What is Something Scientific that you just don't believe in at all?

EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something...

But isn’t it outcome based? No matter how you process information, if your conclusions lead you to a sub-optimal solution to problems, whatever they are in whatever context, isn’t that “dumber” than someone that can come up with the best or better solution?

If I decide “god will provide” instead of “if I research, think and work hard enough I can fix this problem”, which one is exhibiting intelligence?

Wayland has fixed so many head-scratching issues I would get running 6 monitors on 2 GPUs under X11. I’d often end up with missing monitors, placed in wrong spots that I’d have to rearrange every reboot until an update would come through that would fix it again for a few months, then all over again.

Since I moved to wayland, everything just works. When it doesn’t, it’s not a display server issue, it’s something physical. I just had a couple monitors fail to show up and thought “oh hell, it’s back to this, eh”. But I open the tower, seat the offending GPU better, and everything comes up like normal, and all the screens are in the right position, it just remembers.

Anyone that thinks X11 is still superior probably runs on a laptop with a single screen.

That’s less about Wayland than it is about shortfalls in nVidia driver development. Exactly like Nate’s example in the blog post.

No blame on the XFCE devs because they’re trying to get a lot done with few people, but XFCE just managed to transition to GTK3, I wouldn’t hold my breath for comprehensive Wayland support any time soon.

Nothing wrong with me that a million dollars or two wouldn’t fix.

I’ve been searching for a browser based terminal gateway that I can use for sysadmin. I’d like to just have all my ssh connections in one spot and accessible as a web terminal in a network, like a bastion host. Anyone have any recommendations?

I want to see the “bring out your dead” cart guy from The Holy Grail.

Maybe it can be the “brown screen of death”. To indicate that it shit itself.

Zoho and PM have two entirely different reasons for existence. If you don’t want E2EE (assuming the other sender is on PM) then by all means, use Zoho. And IMAP isn’t E2EE compatible in the slightest, what they’re charging for is the decryption bridge that makes it work with an IMAP client. They had to come up with that, it’s not just a switch you flip at PMs end that makes IMAP work.

    Get some older tablet with a relatively open Android build on it like 4.4.x and put on FB Reader. I see Moon Reader touted a lot, FB Reader is at least as good and isn’t full of advertising and nag popups like Moon Reader. And you can link it to your Calibre library via OPDS.

    I looked at this, it looks pretty rudimentary compared to something like Mailcow-dockerized which has a full docker stack with clamAV, sieve, etc that you can add Roundcube on to, and has worked very well for me for years. There are precious few jmap clients out there so that’s not much of a consideration really. I’d rather have rspamd itself rather than their fork of it because then I can depend on the original’s documentation, because their documentation doesn’t seem very comprehensive comparatively.

    Plus, I’d rather have a stack of separate docker containers rather than a single container that munges it all together, but maybe that’s not a big deal. I like to let Postgres manage the postgres container image and not put another layer in there.

    Oh, just let him have his hissy fit.

    They still have a gnome ISO, but you’re going to throw it out because it isnt the “official” version. That sounds like a hissy fit.

    The non-official KDE previous version was fine, since the point of the distro is the backend optimizations for gaming and editing. Its not what DE leads point since you can add whatever Fedora has in the repos, which is pretty much everything.

    You sign over your copyright on your contributions to the project.

    I think the reason it’s a Canonical product is because nobody else was contributing to it before. So nothing has changed.

    It containerizes all the subcomponents under a mastercontainer, and even has support for community containers of things like pihole, caddy and dlna. So you have image control over each component, as well as codespace separation.

    After 7 or 8 years of various forms of Nextcloud, I have to say this is the easiest one to maintain, upgrade and backup outside of my VM snapshots.

    ikidd,

    Not really, it just makes containers in your docker, accessible like any others. The mastercontainer can be used to control and update them, but you can just exec -dit them like any other containers you find in your docker ps

    As a former self-configured docker compose NC user, I have to say I’m way happier with the AIO. But still, the older docker method was head and shoulders over any other method of running NC that I’d used.

    If you’re getting into Proton, you might want to look at Nobara.
