All the other comments kind of suggest otherwise, but I am pretty certain that fedora comes with firewalld enabled by default.

Konsole from the KDE suite has CTL support: https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/konsole/konsole/complex-text-rendering.html

I think mlterm has too. And likely others.

Where did you get this picture of me? Nobody was supposed to know that I’m a crustacean!

I like that every keyboard was signed on the inside by some quality control guy. And that they had some holes in the baseplate which the manual explicitly stated were there so the coffee could run off. Yet, my favorite keyboard is the Cherry G80-3000 (US ANSI).

That hardware is so fascinating (in hindsight): I love that it had a hardware jpeg decoder. Fun times.

This is victim blaming.

Only to some degree. The guy is a software engineer and should have known better. I’d agree if it was Jenny from accounting. You could just as well point out “victim blaming” when I called someone a moron for jumping from a three storey building and breaking his legs, because it was neither his intention nor was he aware that it could break his legs. For a software engineer to employ cloud based “smart” devices and then wonder if it backfires is borderline moronic.

Huh. I played with my penis. And an Atari 1040ST (a few years later).

We do what we must, because we can!

I came here to make the same smoking analogy.

I mean, they are fine books!

On one side, critics lambasted Jackson as a dupe for having smart devices in the first place; […]

Yah … that.

Thanks for the pointers. I’ll have to look at that sometime.

I like the idea of a federated network of lots of smallish instances. You’re absolutely right, though, that some flux is to be expected, and evident.

While we’re at it: Villa Straylight is the name of an abandoned space habitat from the same series ;-)

The text portion of your comments and posts lives on everywhere where it was federated. All images uploaded to the instance are gone.

If you’re referring to wintermute, that’s the name of an AI from a Gibson novel. Soo, pretty common among cyber punk nerds online. My name is an allusion to one character from that series, too: count zero.

Well, the administrative account went by “wintermute”. Good luck finding a wintermute online that’s actually them.

What do you mean by passthrough here? Usually passthrough refers to passing through a GPU to a virtual machine. And there is no cooperation whatsoever required between the GPUs for that. That makes me think you’re talking about offloading: one GPU controlling the display, while the other does the heavy lifting of 3d rendering. Last time I checked - several years ago - that is impossible with the proprietary nvidia driver, unless you have hardware that supports that, like prime in laptops. The only way to do offloading to a nvidia card without such hardware was to use the open source driver nouveau. And at the time there was absolutely no point in offloading with nouveau because it had such terrible performance. Now, this might have changed on several fronts since then; so take it with a grain of salt.

Learn to read. That was an exclusive or list with mental issues as one option. Nowhere did I say anything about a handicap.

Many people have mental issues: I get the thousand-yard stare when I see the outlook interface.

[…] Outlook […] it is the best email client by far […]

You must be kidding. I get it that you might be required to use it for work (I’ve been in that boat more than once). But outlook is a terrible, buggy, and infuriating clusterfuck of an email client. There are so many better alternatives. It has piss-poor handling for different encodings, still not defaulting to utf8. Randomly showing garbled Chinese letters to some people sometimes for no obvious reason. Losing connection to Exchange for hours without telling you. Still not supporting quoting standards which have been around for three decades. The settings are a convoluted mess. Filtering can only be done via a super clunky and unintuitive GUI; no scripting support. I could go on and on and on … The only thing where it is arguably better than other alternatives, is with the calender integration and for planning meetings. But that is only because that is not a common email client feature, hence why most email clients don’t have it at all. But even for that there are alternatives which are on par if not better. Kontact from the KDE suite comes to mind. I mean, which demented mind at Microsoft thought it was a good idea, that an email equals a calendar entry for a meeting? The obvious way to implement it is that you have two things that are linked, that reference each other: one email, one calendar entry (like everybody else implements it). Microsoft: emails and calendar entries are the same thing - delete one, lose the other. I can not wrap my head around how anybody can have used outlook and comparable alternatives and come to the conclusion that the infuriatung dumpster fire of outlook is “the best thing”. Either you haven’t really worked with a meaningful number of alternatives, are trolling, or have some severe mental issues (Stockholm syndrome?) that you should seek help for.
