There’s a dedicated tool named sshguard which works nicely.

I had not heard of Jackett and to be honest haven’t really looked into aggregators. Will look into it, thank you.

1337x.to has good torrents/magnets in my experience, but def. use ad blocking. On mobile clicking almost anything tries to redirect or pop something up.

Dunno about docker setup, but I mirror github repos I worry may disappear automatically using my self-hosted gogs instance. (Gitea/Forgejo likely also can do it). It’s point-and-click, you just specify the github URL and check a box “this is a mirror”.

Wait, I thought a goatee is what is labelled ‘circle’ … is that a Canadian thing or ?

Neat, will try it out.

Has anyone written an android desktop search widget for it? A quick search only foumd one veeery old experimental project.

I’ll look into those, thank you!

(I currently set up my APL keymap via .Xmodmap with xmodmap, and setxkbmap for X11 terms, and with ‘loadkeys’ for console.)

Great info! I will try it when I decide to trial-run Wayland again, thank you!

(Some things I had read online suggested that Wayland did not use the x11 configs. If it does, that’s good news.)

As someone who hasn’t yet moved to Wayland, how good is support these days for alternate keyboard mappings? Is this something that each individual window manager needs to support, or does Wayland itself manage them?

Not just “international keyboard” support, but truly arbitrary keyboard/symbol mapping support. I muddle in programming with APL, which needs its own key mapping with Unicode symbols.

I recall KDE had its own mapping support which used some system APL layout but I’d rather not have key mappings tied to a specific window manager.

Yeah… and unless you really, really enjoy configuring your own stuff and tinkering, a hosting service is much easier.

I happen to be insane, and enjoy that stuff. And it’s not a business server (well, not anything big anyway).

If you’re in Canada, Rogers (nee Shaw) and Telus small business plans both offer ‘static’ IPs (Shaw’s residential plans aren’t officially static, but they rarely change on a residential modem unless you are always switching out hardware). Telus business fibre 1GB plan offers up to 5 static IP addresses.

Then you must purchase one or more domain names and assign them to your IP address… depending on your business’s needs even small consumer hardware can run a web server just fine.

Have a backup strategy though! And be sure you actually test the restore procedure on a periodic basis!

Linux backups can range from home-grown ‘rsync’ scripts and hot-plug external drives as backup, to more fancy ‘Time Machine’ like backup things (I honestly forget what’s out there for Linux right now, I have my own rsync scripts to back up to external drives).

My home server is my own, but if money is on the line you want proper backup and failover even. Most Linux distributions are easy-peasy to set up with Apache or nginx web servers but if you’ve never set those up you’ll need to study lots of tutorials and manual pages.

If you don’t want to tend to security and backups yourself though, it might be best to find a hosting service.

Quick, someone tell his lawyer to help him run for office! … Somewhere.

Apparently that stops the clock entirely on these things, right??

I put on my robe and wizard hat

If it’s not new-in-box, yeah, pretty much. I’m happy with my OnePlus-5T.

I refuse to buy any phone new, I always look for one 2-3 years old with verified stable support for lineageOS.

Also a good way to do a little to reduce e-waste. Many slightly older models have stock remaining new-in-box so it isn’t always an issue of buying ‘used’ hardware.

We should do more than block them, they need to be teergrubed.

…are there lights on in there, or was it the sunset shining through? Beautiful pic.

So they should switch to element.io, or host their own forum thingie on a VPS somewhere. Why is Discord essential? (Hint: it’s not)

Individual does this – CFPA indictment instantly.

MegaCorp does this – Oh dear, we absolutely must meet to plan to implement a meeting to form a panel that will plan to meet to maybe ask nicely that MegaCorp stop what they’re doing (or pay us lots of lobbying funds to make it go away, which it will do anyhow, just not quite as quietly as if they pay us $$$)

Looks like someone forgot to cast their uint32_t to int32_t or should’ve used a signed type in the first place, unless they’re storing temps in Kelvin :)
