How To Sound Wise

  • One from a fellow student, who didn't know about fork bombs and put one in his .bashrc, following "advice" from a friend, he never figured out how to fix it and just reinstalled

    On my part, it was a server install of YunoHost that I broke by trying to setup an app to use the LDAP provider. Since I needed the YunoHost LDAP password, I messed with some files, broke the LDAP config, but it turns out everything in YunoHost uses LDAP. Including your own user and its associated privileges. So the server was entirely broken, and it was impossible to restore backups because the YunoHost restore tool was also botched by the config errors

  • Dumbest Thing you have done distro-hopping?
  • I tried dual-booting Manjaro from my Ubuntu install, since VMs were slow on my machine at the time and I wanted to give Manjaro a try.

    Manjaro wouldn't boot (X11 sessions crashes on boot), and then when I returned to Ubuntu, I got dropped straight to the GRUB rescue shell because I had shrunk the partition from the Manjaro installer, and it had fucked up the Ubuntu install :/ so instead of two OSes I had none

  • Indice de compétence en anglais EF – la France est 43ème
  • Le classement est impressionnant au niveau Européen, les seuls pays plus bas que la France sont l'Azerbaïdjan, l'Arménie, la Turquie et l'Ukraine

    Pendant ce temps, nos voisins d'outre-Rhin sont confortablement installés en huitième position, nous sommes clairement à la traîne

  • [Question] Does the steamdeck/emudeck support wireless multiplayer?
  • You can create ad-hoc wireless networks in desktop mode, which should enable you to achieve that. Then, if your emulator supports netplay, with the two SDs connected to each other, you should be able to play by connecting to localhost

    That's in theory, in practice, we tried with a friend once, and his SD would just not connect to the ad-hoc network I had setup on mine

  • What are your favourite casual games on the steam deck?
  • Sable always had a tendency to make the Deck heat up like crazy and burn through battery in no time, but otherwise it's a great game to play in bed 😁

  • Le plus drôle dans ce flot ininterrompu d'inepties, mensonges, raisonnements foireux, et consorts, c'est le fait qu'on y apprend que la République n'a aucune base légale... en s'appuyant sur un texte de loi pour le démontrer. Ça relève du chef-d'œuvre :o

  • Rapport - La Femme Invisible dans le numérique : le cercle vicieux du sexisme
  • Je ne suis pas surpris par ce rapport, ayant réalisé mon parcours dans une école d'ingénieur spécialisée dans le numérique, ma promotion comportait 4% de femmes en première année, et le chiffre en sortie est plus faible encore

    Le plus inquiétant restant le fait que les initiatives pour inciter les jeunes femmes à s'intéresser au numérique sont soit des assocs étudiantes, soit des primes financées par les GAFAMs, ce qui en dit long sur le niveau de parité dans ces milieux

  • I wanted to give Lineage a try, but I went traveling last July and installing a new ROM abroad really didn't sound like a good idea, despite the EOL on my current ROM 😅

    It's really a shame that the /e/ ROMs don't at least integrate the system patches from upstream, since they are indeed based on Lineage (just checked now), and Lineage still supports the Pixel 3a

    I guess it might have to do with upkeeping their fork of the Lineage software, or their own launcher being incompatible with modern versions of Lineage

  • Had been on Calyx for a while, must say /e/ was definitely a better experience, haven't tried anything else besides that

    I think /e/ is forked from either Graphene or Lineage (not sure which one) but comes with a full FOSS suite of replacement apps that integrate with the Murena online services (can also use a regular Nextcloud instance)

    It'a neat and tightly integrated out-of-the-box, worked really well on the 3a, but most apps sorta fell behind in terms of features in the long run compared to traditional FOSS apps, might also be due to lack of updates since the device is considered EOL

    I'm looking into getting a Fairphone with iodéOS next, since my 3a doesn't recieve updates anymore and the phone's been agonizing from all the traveling haha

  • Running /e/OS on a Pixel 3a, only downside is thart system updates have stopped being distributed a while back. Otherwise very satisfied with the experience.

  • Pixelfed Users - Thoughts so far?
  • I used YunoHost to set it up.

    My first idea was to have the instance locked behind the YunoHost auth, since Pixelfed supports LDAP.

    But I could not manage to make the LDAP work, so I went instead with a public instance that has ActivityPub disabled and all posts set to "Followers Only".

    People could also set each of their accounts to "Private", but the follow requests were not working when I first set up the instance.
