Linux server hangs on shutdown in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I would like to note that this may have been caused by a bios update, as it started sometime after it. i'll try another update now.

edit: already on the latest bios version.

I've run arch linux for a year or so before converting it, and no issues with shutdown. what makes you think that's the cause?

The computer consists of:

Monitor output after shutting down:

I've given it 6 hours or so to shut down, so it's almost 100% a hang not a slow shutdown

no, sorry for not specifying. it's scrapped together from old consumer components.

What do you guys think about RHEL 10 adopting RDP instead of VNC or Spice? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Wikipedia says "As of February 2014, the extent to which open-source clients meet this requirement remains unknown."

That's old but may still be the case. However, I'd imagine if RHEL wanted to comply with mpeg's h246 patents, they will do the same for rdp.

I see your point, but calculators(good ones, at least) are accurate 100% of the time. AI can hallucinate, and in a medical settings it is crucial that it doesn't. I use AI for some insignificant tasks but I would not want it to replace my doctor's learning.

Also, calculators are used to help kids work faster, not to do their work for them. Classroom calculators(the ones my schools had, at least) didn't solve algebraic equations, they just added, subtracted, multiplied, divided, exponentiated, rooted, etc. Those are all things that can be done manually but are rudimentary and slow.

I get your point but AI and calculators are not quite the same.

I saw that RDP was proprietary. I know that some proprietary protocols have open source implementations, is that the case here?

Here's Some Rare KDE Apps You Might Not Have Heard About (lemmy.fish)
 

KDE has a massive collection of app, and I combed through them to find some of the lesser-known hidden gems that people may not be aware of. Here is a list of my favorites.

  • Kirogi: A ground control software. It only supports a few drones right now, but should get MAVLink support in the future.
  • KStars: An astronomy software that lets you view the positions of planets and stars, as well as a whole lot of other features related to astronomy.
  • Licentia: A license comparison app. It lets you view and compare free software licenses. It has the full license text as well as a simplified list of features of it.
  • KDE Itinerary: An app for travel planning. Well designed, with detailed station views courtesy of Openstreetmap.
  • KTrip: Similar to Itinerary, a public transport navigation app
  • Alpaka: An Ollama client for running LLMs

Looking for opinions on my first custom drone build (lemmy.fish)
 

Greetings! I am going to build my first drone with custom-selected parts. I have a good bit of experience with building drones but have mainly built RTF kits instead of selecting all my parts. I plan on this being an Ardupilot build. I hoping to get other's opinions on any parts I should upgrade to a higher quality, parts I should keep the same, or any incompatibilities that I missed. I'd also like to note that I went for the cheaper end of products with the intention of upgrading later, but I don't have a set budget.

  • Frame: DJI F450(nylon, built in pdb, 280g)
  • Motors: Racerstar BR2212(1000kv, 208g)
  • Props: 1045(plastic, 20g)
  • ESCs: Hobbywing Skywalker(30a, proprietary programming tool, 132g)
  • Autopilot: Matek H743 Slim(7g)
  • PDB: Matek PDB-XPW(BEC, might not be needed, 7g)
  • Receiver: RadioMaster RP1 ELRS(2.2g)
  • Battery: Pre-owned LiPo(11.1v, 3s, ~300g)

Is this one relatable? (lemmy.fish)
 

For those who might not get it, every laptop that I’ve had has had two usb 3 ports on the right side, with other I/O like HDMI or headphone jack, and then one USB 2 port on the left side with less io, just the power jack.

Is pixelfed.social dead? (lemmy.fish)
 

I registered for Pixelfed.Social 3 days ago and still haven't received an email that confirmed my account, and I can't sign in on the website. Is it dead, or are the moderators a bit slower than it said on the website? If I was rejected would I receive an email?

Paying for Vim (lemmy.fish)
 

Hey guys, I just wanted to say that Vim is charityware. This means that if you like the software and want to pay for it, you can donate to charity instead of to the developers of Vim. Vim recommends donating to ICCF Holland to pay for the software. ICCF Holland is a charity that focuses on supporting Ugandan children whose parents have passed from HIV. They provide healthcare and education to children who need it. Donation is critical to keep this organization active. There are a few different ways to help this organization, from directly donating money to sponsoring a child, by paying monthly for them to go to school and receive medical care. Work is all volunteer, so your money goes strictly to children. Your donation can make a difference in a kid's life. You can donate at Vim's website or ICCF Holland

PSA: Google Meet no longer works in hardened Firefox (lemmy.fish)

EDIT

This issue may be due to WebRTC being disabled. WebRTC is required for google meet, but also used for fingerprinting.

Recently I tried to join a google meet meeting in my hardened config firefox browser, and google meet didn't let me in at all. I was confused as hell. I could join only on my phone, but not any of my three computers I tested it on. I then went into a virtual machine with regular firefox(also linux), and the meeting works. The only conclusion I can draw is that google is so desperate for my data that they refuse to service me unless I give them this.

This post intends to inform people that issues with google products may be related to their valid wish for security, and the actions they have taken in pursuit of that. The post also intends to inform people of a solution. The two apps that I recommend are:

  • Jitsi Meet: This is self hosted, but you can also make a meeting with jitsi's own servers. A excellent alternative to google meet, the only reason I didn't use it is that I had issues the day I needed to meet, and had to fall back to google meet instead.
  • Jami: This is a distributed-network chat and video calling app which is open source and a GNU package. It does require an app, but is free and open source and will serve your purpose.****_________
