GL.iNet also has a KVM now.

Or a better SD card. I’ve used my various Raspberrys with SD cards for years without any issues. The only single incident I’ve had was a card turning read-only. Which I’ve only noticed because system updates were gone after a reboot. But all the main data was still there and accessible. And a simple clone to a new card followed by fsck restored full functionality in the Pi again.

But what do you do with your Passkey in your password manager if you have to login on another device (you don’t own)?

I just found a pattern. Monday, where it was showing up 1 hour earlier, I was connected to my M365 Cloud PC via my home Macbook. Then, the appt (only this one) showed up wrong.

Yesterday, I was using that same Cloud PC from my work (Windows-)laptop and the appt showed up at the correct time.

Today, I’m using the exact same Cloud PC - without rebooting - from my Macbook again and Outlook shows it wrong again.

So, that virtual machine that’s called Cloud PC does something different depending on the system you’re connecting from. How stupid is that?

I thought so, too, at first. But why did Teams (using the “New Calendar” setting) show it correctly? And why did it fix itself today?

You’re not alone. We’re forced to use Classic Outlook at work.

I’ve got a monthly recurring appointment for a Zoom call. That was due today again. There was the switch to winter time last week and Outlook decided to “adjust” the scheduled time for me.

That meeting was originally for 11am and should continue to be at 11am during standard time. However, yesterday I’ve noticed that Outlook put it at 10am (and showed a proud message that it adjusted it due to timezone change). No way to undo it.

Teams continued to show it at 11am where it belongs.

Now, when trying to move it to 11 in Outlook, Teams moved it to 12.

And when I opened Outlook this morning, the appt was at 11am where it belongs and Outlook and Teams agreed again.

Mind you, this was only this external Zoom call. All other appointments are still correct. Very weird.

I’m running a local SearXNG which still provides usable results. I don’t see the point in paying for what’s basically a smart phone book. If everything fails, I’m going full #oldweb and use #webrings or some of those retro lists.

Even better: YouTube still provides RSS feeds. You can “subscribe” to your favourite channels by adding them to your RSS reader.

And for desktop, there’s also FreeTube.

They’ll probably make “Maps+” soon after.

Looks like there was www.diforfree.org some 7-10 years ago. I’ve found a few remnants via Google. But I couldn’t find anything that’s still working.

Might be a language barrier as I’m not a native English speaker, yes. And I was referring to their moderation team. They seem to have no issues with extremist left stuff, but the moment you don’t display nothing but pure hate against something considered “right” (in the context of German politics) they get very trigger happy with the ban hammer.

I was thinking more that their moderation team is mostly German and thus they’re very sensitive about German politics but less sensitive about other countries’ politics.

I got shadowbanned for life for mentioning not to blindly believe some statement about a “secret” report about the German right-wing party without seeing said report first. So that’s that.

Depends on the area. As it’s a German instance, in terms of German politics it really is “as left as it gets”. But they probably don’t care much about US politics.

mastodon.social is the flagship instance and as left as it gets.

Ah, gut zu wissen! Danke! :)

The K3 Keyboard and the Voyage are the best Kindles IMHO. And I even had the same neon-yellow/green origami case for mine. Gave the K3 to my MIL when I upgraded to the Voyage. And sold the Voyage when I wanted to free myself from that walled garden a few years ago.

If you don’t want to get rid of your Voyage, you can turn it into a TRMNL and have it show your calendar, news, etc. instead.

The important bit is -v /opt/podman/searxng/config:/etc/searxng:Z in the podman call. This will mount your local directory (i.e. on the host the container is running on) /opt/podman/searxng/config into the container as /etc/searxng (which is where SearXNG is searching for its config). Make sure that the local directory exists and is writeable by your user account before starting the container. This way your config will persist even when the container gets replaced by an updated version.

IIRC, after running the container for the first time, SearXNG should put a settings.yml and uwsgi.ini there. You can edit them and restart the container for the changes to take.

On later container updates, SearXNG will put the latest versions of the default configs as settings.yml.new and uwsgi.ini.new. This way it doesn’t overwrite your config and allows you to manually merge the new defaults into your running config. (If you only see the *.new files after starting the container for the first time, rename them and remove the .new part.)

Does the Optiplex have passive cooling? I don’t want these things to make any noise at all.
