Try Firefox, ditch Google, use uBlock Origin/piHole. Don’t download random stuff from the internet.

Alright, thanks anyway

Do you happen to use Omnivore on android too? If so, did you ever happen to have trouble syncing deletions/saved articles between them?

8 hours? I would kill to get 8 hours battery life.

The dishonored universe is constantly residing in my head. One story I think would be interesting is where Corvo uses the cut power (Void House) that allows him to take a respite from battle. It could be set in a canon level or a random encounter that leaves him pretty shaken up, so he needs to recover. If you want to see what I’m talking about, here’s a link.

Sysprep can reset the activation clock a max number of 3 times. You can set SkipRearm to 1 and it no longer does this, but of course the activation clock isn’t reset, which ‘defeats’ continued reactivation. You learn something new every day I guess. See Serverfault - Does doing sysprep too many times cause issues?

I always wondered if people still make quirky Lego cities like the old days

Hello computer (YouTube)

Like others said, you can try installing Arch manually (not with the install script). You get the hang of the terminal and you get to see a bit more of how Linux works under the hood. The wiki is your friend, spend some time reading it!

Julia Evans recently did a thing about job control here. Nothing yet on multiplexers though

It’s not always DNS - unless it is

When will it stop? No really?

I understand this is a non-issue for your home network, but as I understand it, the real risk is when using a VPN in a public and untrusted place (e.g. a coffee shop) as most teleworkers do

I selfhost Vikunja on a small 1GB RAM VM. It has views for list, table, Gantt and Kanban (I assume that’s what you mean by not manually reordering?) You can setup reminders for your tasks like any project management tool as well.

You can access its web interface via port 3456, so no syncing or external app is needed, it’s all browser based. Of course, you can setup a wireguard VPN to access it anywhere.

I work at an educational institution that doesn’t really prioritize security, or anything IT related for that matter. We are a very small team (3 people) and we can’t really enforce any institution-wide training. We send regular PSA emails and that’s about it.

Of course, we have control over password policies and external access through workspace management tools, but we don’t have control over a lot of higher-up decisions. I wish I could enforce even stricter password policies but it’s just not possible for the higherups.

I was thinking of raising funding for some sort of cybersecurity day event at the institution, but when it comes to funding, you know how generous educational institutions are.

Not strictly career related, but how can I make regular people aware of the importance of cyber security in day to day work? My nontechnical colleagues really brush off security as an optional measure and it’s really pissing me and my coworkers off.

On a sidenote, what theme did you use for Kubuntu? I’ve scoured the webs for all kinds of themes and none do it justice.

I was always curious about those. Surely they can’t be faster than computers right? I mean, whatever computers they have in the 24th century.

They’ll never encrypt my 2000 DVDs!
