But still the sunken stars appear In dark and windless Mirrormere; There lies his crown in water deep, Till Durin wakes again from sleep.

  • The trade off is that you'll have to get used to troubleshooting and configuring a bit on your own, but the reward is that you are no longer an involuntary product of Microslop. :) Don't get discouraged, be patient!

  • I don't know which network manager Ubuntu uses, so I'm not sure whether this applies to you. I'm using Arch with the network manager systemd-networkd. I set it up manually from the CLI by creating a so called .network file in the /etc/systemd/network/ folder.

    To "setup" and start using systemd-networkd, do sudo systemctl enable --now systemd-networkd.service. You will probably also need to setup systemd-resolved with sudo systemctl enable --now systemd-resolved.service because some services and/or programs need this for domain name resolution.

    Then, check out point 3.5 on this page in the Arch Wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Systemd-networkd

    Use the section that applies to your setup depending on whether you are wired, wireless or both.

    This of course assumes that Ubuntu doesn't use another network manager.

  • Sweet! Thanks! :D

  • Noice! I was in fact looking for that information too! :D

  • I haven't yet dares trying to press it, but looking at it with the naked eye, it does look like - for instance - the bootloader button on a Raspberry Pi Pico. Couldn't come up with another example. Lol.

  • No luck on the punk rock band, but I thank you for the help with the manual! XD

  • I had no idea. Thank you very much for explaining! It'll be "hard" to say goodbye to my trusted ASUS ROG Strix 1000W, which is only an 80+ gold rated old boy... XD

  • Thanks for the recommendations! I'll have to check the idle power next time I reboot, since the desktop serves a butload of things (I2P, Tor, Snowflake, my media, seeding...).

    I'll definitely make sure about the C-states! :)

  • Right! I've seen those. "Something something compliant" and "something something rated". Although not "something something dark side".

    Thanks for the headsup on the transcoding. I an indeed using my desktop as a media server, which would then become the SBC's job... Maybe I'll look into those mini PCs after all.

  • Thanks! I never thought of actually downclocking instead of undervolting. No rush! :)

  • Hah! I never even thought about these mini computers. There is a great second hand retailer of these in my country. I'll check it out! :)

  • I'd love to switch to a bigger ssd, but these 4TB ones already cost me 400 bucks each... :(

    Interesting about the PSU! I thought it only every output/draw as much as its "clients" demanded? Is there such a big "overhead" it whatever? :O

    I spent a few minutes on going through my "invoices" directory in my mail, but I couldn't find anything else. These four are all my online subscriptions. Everything else is IRL (water, electricity, rent, etc).

  • Whoopsie doodle.

  • Is there a vote system? I'd like to vote on the next target. Looking at you, Big Tech^[Alphabet (Google), Amazon, Apple, Meta (Facebook), Microsoft, and Nvidia]. 👀

  • Thanks for the heads up on the rm -rf ./*. It was so fucking cluttered.

    Samsung users, if you are on One UI 8 and plan to downgrade to One UI 7 to be able to unlock the bootloader, do not install November's security patch!
