A pipe would be: cat /dev/random | tee /dev/null

Wine might translate the windows calls to Linux depending on what the malware does

This is about the cosmic desktop environment, not a CPU architecture

Last I checked windows 11 can be installed without TPM support. I think rufus even has a simple checkbox for it and Chris Titus's winutil can modify an ISO to do the sams

I run wiki.js for documentation for my home lab, but also things like the custom rom setup for my phone. However it's hard to keep it up to date as I forget it exists. I mostly use it to document setting up windows server core with different roles as I don't need to do that often, but most tutorials on the web are SEO optimised with low quality

Am I blind or do they call tar an archive format and not a compression format as you say?

This is very different from docz or odt, but maybe its worth looking into converting markdown or latex to PDF with something like pandoc. Maybe that or some other more open and less complex format might help with this?

I ran my 1060 just fine for a few year. Nvidia has an official, but proprietary driver that might not run well on some distro's. Personally I haven't had any issues, though it would be better to stick with xorg and not wayland. Wayland support on nvidia I've heard isn't great, but it does work

Personally I use tailscale which should punch through double NAT. It's a wire guard based mesh VPN, but an exit node should make it a normal VPN

Being distracted by a live stream while cutting people off, speeding, running red lights and ignoring police roadblocks while driving a lorry from Spain through the UK to France

Very interesting, might have to check that out sometime

That looks really interesting! Does this exist for other languages like Rust?

This video from thiojoe is probably relevant here. It is mostly for scam websites, but maybe it's useful for this too? At least gives you some platforms to contact

While I'm using AMD, I have had no issues with Nvidia on Arch using X before I switched earlier this year. One just installs the nvidia or nvidia-dkms package. My main reasons to switch were I had a 1060 6GB and it was getting old, AMD had a better price and if I'm keeping this one as long as my last I wanted to be certain wayland support was good even though I don't use it right now

Tailscale shouldn't be getting your data anyway. It's a mesh VPN that directly connects devices after their auth server gives out certs and let's clients know where to find another. If you're not comfortable with using their server for this I'd suggest you look into the open source headscale server. I do remember it routing through their server in the rare case NAT punching doesn't work

My update script handles mirrors, updates and cleans the cache automatically. I'd definitely recommend creating one. It's aliased to sysupdate for me and I also check if it's a debian or arch based distro so the command works on my servers and desktop

I've heard of tools like that, but this works fine for me. This way I'm not dependent on it being packaged for my distro and having to install it through other means. I'm fine running things manually, this is just for convenience

Markdown supports images and tables. It may depend on the rendered though. The GitHub flavour of Markdown supports this for example and I expect Latex supports it too. If existing tools don't exist to get the height of elements you can probably make it yourself fairly easily if you you the specific font and styling the renderer uses. You'd just have to parse the file, which is basically plain text, and run the same calculations the renderer would. For which approximation might be fine depending on the use case

Hetzner storage boxes look really compelling. Thanks for sharing!

Cloudflare tunnels definitely aren't wrong, you're just not entirely using open source software. It's a very good option if you need to open things to the public or want to learn more about cloud services

You don't need an account. De-bloating scripts take care of most other annoyances. You can fairly easily beat windows into submission

You can selfhosted tailscale so that they don't have any access. You can't with cloudflare tunnels as far as I know. Tailscale's client is open source, so is their Headscale server which originally was developed by a 3rd party. You can look into the code for that. Not sure what you'd want me to say. If you really want to be informed I'd inspect the code yourself

AFAIK CTT's tool literally uses Microsoft provided tooling.

Edit: it's the same tooling used by companies to modify their own windows installs

You can still use your mouse. I3 allows using the mouse for moving Windows if you want it. Personally I manage Windows using shortcuts, but for GUI and some TUI apps I use the mouse anyway

Does it necessarily need exploits? I might be wrong, but I believe games running in wine can access any file your user can. It should still be able to delete, edit or encrypt them. Wine just translates calls, it doesn't create a locked down container or anything iirc

I'm using Arch on my main machine since it is primarily for gaming where a lot of the focus is on Arch and its derivatives. A lot of guides are made for it and Valve's SteamOS is Arch based. For software development not having to use Docker's own repo is really nice to have as the Arch version is up to date to a point where I haven't noticed any issues with guides or anything

However, Tumbleweed looks very intriguing and I'm seriously considering it for my Framework 16 once I get it as it'll be a machine to get work done, not mess around and play games

Personally I haven't had much luck with distrobox, but that was mostly with Pgadmin 4. Its package in the arch community repo has been broken for years

I don't think I've posted it before, but here it is. If you use different utilities you'd have to swap those out. Also excuse the comments, I had GH Copilot generate this script

You can use headscale with tailscale if you want to self host it. Headscale is a community made server implementation for tailscale
