  • No, I don't want to design a logo for a coffee shop in fucking skype.

  • While I agree that Mic am not working can be difficult to work out with none technical people I have that experience with Teams every day. I work in IT, as do my colleagues and every morning the first call goes like "Can you hear me now?" "Gotta switch the mic." ...this is on teams on Windows/Mac and Linux ... So in my anecdotal experience browser based solutions are no better or worse

    Germany has too many solar panels, and it's pushed energy prices into negative territory

  • The whole European grid is connected (which is a miraculous feat). And yes, there is a European market for energy where countries can sell surplus and buy in high demand situations.

  • Did you choose for Linux for freedom or ...

    Jump

  • Well ... I first got into contact with OpenSource due to Gratis: OpenOffice, Firefox etc. Combining my knowledge of OpenSource with my tendency to break stuff (Reinstalling Boston for the nth time) led me to Linux which I first tinkered with and soon fully adapted.

    I had a short hopping phase where I went from Ubuntu (my starter) via Debian (accidentally tried stable) to Arch.

    Stuck with arch on my personal machines now run Ubuntu for my work machine and Debian for Servers.

    My favourite distro is the right tool for the job (see above) but I'm pretty happy with Arch

  • Systemctl Command Examples in Linux

    Jump

  • You can .... WHAT!?

    Wow I did not know that. Incredibly helpful

  • Systemctl Command Examples in Linux

    Jump

  • Two additional commands I regularly use as a Sysadmin are

    systemctl status without any unit to list show the general system status (lists units that are running, units that are starting and failed units right at the top) And then systemctl list-units --failed To show me just the failed units and did deeper what the problem is.

    On a properly set up system I should quickly be able to ascertain if everything is "up and running" just by systemds status

  • How often do you update your system?

    Jump

  • Well for my laptop which I use 3-5 days a week (for a few hours at a time) I do it only when I'm at home so it doesn't get in the way when I need my machine. But I also reboot my laptop every use since with framework suspend just won't work properly (I'll look into it soon™).

    My desktop I try to update every time I use it but with barely any time and my gaming now happening on my steam deck that's less and less. Also with the archzfs module I gotta wait for the right timing between module and kernel versions so these days I often miss a few updates.

  • Asking a Linux user to recommend a printer

    Jump

  • Incredibly I've had two printers I've never really had issues with.

    1. The brother laser my sister uses with Ubuntu without a hitch since forever
    2. The canon inkjet printer/scanner that is wifi connected in my flatshare

  • Selfhosted rss w/ push?

    Jump

  • Antennapod does offer that by hooking into the gpodder.net API.ive had varying success with gpodder.net but hosting that yourself (I host it as an app on my Nextcloud) is a breeze

  • ‘We stand here as Jewish men who refute the Holocaust being hijacked’: Jonathan Glazer calls for end to Gaza attacks at Oscars

    Jump
    1. Not an American but sure fight the strawmen.
    2. To say all the hostages are European Settlers is just such a false view of the facts. A lot of these people weren't settlers. And to assume they are "European" (by which I assume you mean White) is also wrong. There are Jews (and Arabs) that live (and have lived) in this region for centuries, also there is a huge population of Jews that are black or general POC.

  • "If Israel didn't exist there would be no people fighting against the existence of Israel" ... What the Fuck?

    What kind of role reversal is that blaming October 7. on the "occupation" seriously? I'm not saying Israels government didn't have a hand in creating adversity and Terrorism by suppressing the Palestinian people but to claim the horrific massacres were there fault is just plain evil.

  • Why is it unlisted? Is this a pattern preview? I love seeing new TechnologyConnections but I'm not gonna watch später on preview I don't deserve

  • Good mini PC for around 100€

    Jump

  • Can't quite speak for the n100 but I got a n305 one of these "China PCs" it's passively cooled (which was important since it's running in my bedroom) and seems to have amazing performance for what I need (I put jellyfin on there). I'm quite happy after futzing around with ARM SBCs and external drives this just works so well.

  • Former distrohoppers, where did you settle down?

    Jump

  • Yeah might have gotten stuck on Debian as well if I didn't make the mistake to run stable when I first tried it. Choosing stable made sense to me since I wanted a stable os but when I was greeted by "ICE weasel" that was way behind the Firefox I got used to on Ubuntu and other software being terribly out of date I decided to move on.

    Well then I got stuck on Arch.

    But while it would be easy to say "never looked back" that's not true of course, these days I tun Debian on most of my machines (only that they are servers) and Ubuntu on some (like my work Laptop) my personal Desktop and laptop are Arch though and probably always will be.

  • If you love piracy you should consider voting/joining your local Pirate Party

    Jump

  • Yeah ... No.

    I'm generally not a fan of party politics (though I realize you often have to bite the bullet on voting). But the pirate party here (Germany) is a really problematic bunch some of them thinking freedom means free markets some of them thinking free speech means they should be able to say hateful Nazi shit ... Really not a party I want to vote for, even in a pinch.

  • An unbiased comparison of linux distributions' setup

    Jump

  • I'll have you know that I eat a vegetarian not vegan diet and I really don't have a man bun (got no hair for that) ... The stickers on the laptop however really felt like you took a photo of my machine.

    Also if it wasn't obvious I run arch

  • Shitsoft Teams doesn't work on firefox

    Jump

  • Yep. Use it at work every day (on Ubuntu). Gives you more features than the "oicial preview client" used to do (like custom video backgrounds and screen sharing on Wayland) but you can run it as a seperate app instead of just in your browser.
