I’ve done some very dodgy things with VGA cables in an effort to route the cables through narrow bulkheads. For normal computer-to-monitor-lengths this is probably fine.

I haven’t noticed much signal degradation below 4m-ish.

At 12m, you better solder properly and wrap some extra shielding around your splice.

Source: I’ve ran plenty of VGA cables between bridge computers and a deck monitor on ships.

Most of the time I’ve seen this, it’s usually just shitty consumer grade firmware full of memory leaks.

Not really, but you’d probably learn hotkeys much faster.

No

Older series mostly use historically significant people, none of which are Benny F

I’d tell you a joke about brown dwarves, but it’s kinda dark…

Because nobody reading the article knows the exchange value of Norwegian Kroner and Øre, so it’s common to cite price tags in USD equivalent.

This is going to be freedom fries all over again

Not that strange. Different users may belong to different groups which may have different authentication backends. The associated authentication method is brought up once a username has been provided.

Due to raids

Ben, is that you?

EDIT: Nope, you said “accidentally”

Only slightly

The humor here is lost on me

Looks like an URL matcher of some sorts, not limited to HTTP. Kudos for handling parentheses as valid URL characters.

I’ll image and share my swap partition, if anyone’s interested

Obligatory: Your choice of Linux distro is awful. I don’t know which one it is you’re running, but someone will rip on you for it either way.

Other than that, great to have you onboard. Some tidbits:

• Seconding that other person’s recommendation of timeshift
• I’ve been a linux user for decades and never quite figured out sleep mode. Haven’t bothered putting much effort into solving it, so that’s mostly on me
• At least back in the day, changing ones username was just a matter of editing /etc/password, /etc/shadow, and /etc/groups, and optionally moving your homedir as well. Maybe it still works this way? Make backups if you wanna try it.

Vatnik bot OP aside: Not really. But Orban is sucking up to Russia, so vatniks promote him in an effort to seed a split in Europe. And Orban needs it, as his unpopularity makes his reelection this April difficult. He’s been trying the strongman playbook for quite a few years, but he didn’t have much actual muscle to back it up.

Reported? Check! Vatnik bots aren’t welcome.

Imma have to do some research into how to build a viable mountain solar node, then. It’ll only be physically accessible during summer and in nice weather. Maybe I can hack together something that updates the firmware via USB once a month or something - sounds like an interesting challenge doable with digikey supplies I already have.

Dumping live serial is fine. In fact, I think that might be easiest since I’ll be dumping NMEA strings for positioning at the same time. Should make it easier to parse and map later on.

There are a couple of mapped ones “nearby”. Two hours drive, and a couple of mountain ranges in between. I should be able to reach them with a mountaintop repeater or two. I’ll see what else is nearby (if anything) and plan from there, once my pocket unit arrives.
