  • Printing Paywalled Sites

  • I've had a bit of success with HDMI out to a splitter that does something funky with the edid, then into a capture card. The PC detects the capture card as a second display, drag the content into it, screen cap the "second display". I had all the gear for unrelated projects, but I haven't found any content I couldn't grab this way.

  • Anybody have anything nice they'd like to share?

  • I do IT for a company that actually makes the world better! (And I live in the Texas of Canada, so...)

  • I finally have an awesome job!

  • 2026 is shaping up to be a great year

    Jump

  • I tried unihertz twice. Jelly2, no wifi out of the box, no support. Atom XL... Sigh No WiFi. Out of the box. No support.

    Different routers, different locations... Not my home setup.

    Bluefox NX1. Tiny phone! It's not amazing, but it's exactly enough phone for me. And, lo and behold... WiFi!

  • Learning Linux can be difficult but fuck is it satisfying when you figure something out!

  • Georges Saint Pierre? Sorry, I had to...

  • Windows users keep losing files to OneDrive, and many don't know why

    Jump

  • No, it's end-user panic. "That report me and Bob were working on? It's gone! Emergency! Panic!"

  • Windows users keep losing files to OneDrive, and many don't know why

    Jump

  • sigh I know. It's my boss that implemented the policy... But it was after she audited password ages and a dictionary and found that CompanyName123 was universal and for years at a stretch.

  • Windows users keep losing files to OneDrive, and many don't know why

    Jump

  • Admin here! OneDrive synced home folders at work. Everyone ignores saving because 'autosave'. Once a week at least, some staff member spends hours on something after the mandatory 90-day password change, never signed back in to OneDrive, and gets to kiss all that work goodbye. Also, once a quarter at least, someone was working on a document shared to the by an employee who just quit, so we have to frantically 'unfire' someone's account so the suddenly missing document can be retrieved.

  • [Help] Proxmox Startup Issues

    Jump

  • Are you sure you're passing your gpu through correctly? This didn't happen to me, but a buddy of mine didn't do iommu and tried to pass the gpu through to a VM, and he couldn't boot either. If you boot rescue and change the VM to not start-up on boot? I would definitely post your grub boot line.

  • Self-hosting in 2025 isn't about privacy anymore - it's about building resistance infrastructure

    Jump

  • Fun fact: every time I hear the work Telus, I do a little hock ptui at the ground. I could tell you stories. Proxmox and self host!

  • What do you think the internet will be like in a few years? Why?

    Jump

  • I'm starting to see this amongst my techie friends: invite only enclaves. Like, using matrix or signal chats that are only by invite; Jellyfin servers for streaming, again, among friends. Group cloud services like nextcloud, mail servers cut off from email at large... Internet-like services, but for small groups.

  • Choosing to not to help your friends dying child doesn't make you an asshole

    Jump

  • Hmm... I blocked this asshat, but his posts are still showing up...

  • Boycott American Alcohol, Soft Drinks (Pop) and Tobacco

    Jump

  • Instead of just "Boycott US pop", may I suggest Cove Soda, Annex Soda, Rocky Mountain Brewing Company Cola, or Atypique? All are Canadian made, all beat Coke and Pepsi any day of the week, and I can personally vouch for all of them as fricking fantastic! Dr. Cove is like a milder Dr Pepper, Annex Cola is craft Cola done right, RMBC Black Cherry is to die for, and the Atypique Amaretto Sour is my go-to fake booze.

  • Why isn't this website more popular?

    Jump

  • Okay, I did! How do I attach a recording to a comment in Lemmy?

  • What's your kinda-unimpressive 'claim to fame'?

    Jump

  • At least one other that I have encountered, and the band Cake also did the song and they almost sound like they're doing a Shatner...

    Jump

  • Wow wow wow wow... Wow.

    Jump

  • I encoded one of the very first mp3's ever made, when it was still a "theoretical" model by Fraunhofer. I sung "I will survive" but in my very bad impression of William Shatner, accidentally posted it many years later on Napster, and found that copy following around many years after that on a torrent site. So, if you have a very old, very fake "Shatner" singing "I Will Survive", it might be me.

  • I might be a bot. Those "I'm not a bot" puzzles? Tricky!

  • What should I do with 2 old machines (Mac Mini and HP Pavilion g7)?

    Jump

  • I have an old as eff laptop hiding behind my TV, and I use Unified Remote to make my phone act like a wireless mouse and keyboard for it.

    Also, Proxmox is basically the answer to "I hate big tech and have a lot of time to kill. How do I deal?" Make one computer into 30 mini servers.
