It's not that they caused it, it's that they're putting this forward as a healthier and better alternative to pasteurized milk, which leads to the connection with the news.
My government forces a fingerprint on our id cards. I already lost. I can't use my fingerprint anywhere for authentication because it's not mine anymore.
We are trialing off brand docks. Wouldn't be a trial otherwise 😄 these work perfect btw.
I feel like I'm missing something important here as a simple fediverse user. I don't really care about the politics, I just made an account during the first large Reddit exodus and choose an instance I thought would persist. I also made a second account on kbin.social, but it looks pretty dead as a project.
I never noticed anything described in this thread, but I'm subbed to many communities across the fediverse...
We bought some for work to trial and they cost 65€, so hardly hundreds
Cool, if this works like how you are implying, then this is going to make my life a bit easier.
Arch is on the bleeding edge and it doesn't ask for a reboot. I think it asks for a reboot to load the kernel parts that have updated. Arch probably just assumes you'll do it eventually, but if you don't it'll just keep running the current kernel.
If you have a driver's license, do you know a car works besides the basic maintenance that is checking your oil and keeping the tires inflated? Some people don't even do that last one, while it's a thing you should check regularly.
I think it's a good thing the general public is able to use a computer without knowing the inner workings, but it also shouldn't be obscured from them if they want to know/learn.
Yes, true.
The whole "OS update when I want an app update" is because of how dependencies work on Linux. A library is installed once and referenced by any app that wants to use it. This way, an update in the library benefits all apps using it, as bugs het fixed. Also less storage is used when the one library is used by many apps.
Windows programs keep their own versions of a library and hard link to that one. That makes the app more flexible. You can copy the app and it's dependencies around and it will keep working. In this scenario multiple copies/versions of the same library can exist in the system, which takes more space.
Of course there is some nuance. Both operating systems can have/use shared or hard linked libraries, but this is the general gist of it.
Clicking yes on the windows prompt for elevated rights for the installer to move things forward. Truly the Windows way.
People don't even read the prompts anymore, clicking yes as soon as it appears. So much better.
I maintain a bunch of PC's and 2 of them won't update anymore with some vague error code that only has a microsoft community forum post as search result. I'll get it fixed, but Windows update is not quite flawless and a non tech person would be lost at this point.
People seem to be having a hard time grasping that most of the time it works great on both Windows and Linux. Majority of people will have a solid experience. But on both platforms, when things go to shit, you need to get your hands dirty. And with that final thought, I like to add that because of it's openness, is usually easier to troubleshoot an issue on Linux because it doesn't obscure what it's doing unlike Windows ("Please wait...", "Setting things up", ... dafuq u doin, it says 100%, is it doing anything still or is it hanging?). Windows' vagueness has been a pet peeve of mine and it's only getting worse. I'm perfectly ok shielding it by default, but give me a verbose option.
All software is maintained by strangers.
Some software websites just look sketchy but aren't, which makes it harder for people to filter out the actual sketchy ones. That's just the reality. Jokes about download pages with 4 download buttons also didn't come falling out of the sky.
Android has that issue too. Can't install the same app via fdroid and play store. Sounds logical though. Even Arch pacman won't continue of it detects existing files it doesn't know about.
Need to clone 16GB partition on 128GB disk to 32GB disk
I'm not coming up with a lot of useful (clear) results when searching for a solution to this issue.
Is it OK to simply dd the 128GB disk to the 32GB disk using count to stop after the 16GB partition was cloned?
A bit more context: I had to clone a 16GB eMMC and only had a 128GB SD around. Now I purchased a 32GB eMMC and want to clone it again. The partition holds a root filesystem for an ARMv8 device. I don't have the 16GB eMMC anymore, that would have been the easy way out.
DNS (systemd-resolved) not working on Arch Linux ARM
I'm trying to troubleshoot this DNS I have on a small old Odroid C1 board.
I have set up a static IP, but cannot get DNS to work. The image comes with systemd-resolved by default. I have notes that said to set a static IP, then disable systemd-resolved, and after a reboot the DNS would work, but that didn't work. I've looked into systemd-resolved a little bit, and have configured the DNS servers manually, which is required when using a static address.
My gateway is also my DNS.
Here is what I believe to be relevant output:
/etc/systemd/network/eth0.network: ``` [Match] Name=eth0
[Network] Address=192.168.10.44/24 Gateway=192.168.10.254 DNS=192.168.10.254 DNS=1.1.1.1 ```

Alternatives to systemd-resolved welcome, just need it to work.
edit:
The solution was to add DNSSEC=no in /etc/systemd/resolved.conf. I learned this by running journalctl -u systemd-resolved -f, which said DNSSEC validation failed for question google.com IN A: failed-auxiliary.
Help troubleshooting issue with Mega Drive controller
I have a "Professional control pad PRO-2" (this one https://segaretro.org/Konix_Power_Pad), but unfortunately it does not work.
When I open it up and toy with the contacts I can get all the buttons to work at the same time, and indefinitely, by bridging the start button contact with a single piece of metal. The 3 lights will go on and stay on, and the game will keep receiving start repeatedly. I have tested this with Virtua Racing, it will start the game, go through all menus and then when the race starts it will pause and continue repeatedly. When I touch both sides of the start button contact with a multimeter it does nothing.
I don't know much about electronics, but I would like to repair this controller.
Here are pictures of the inside of the controllers.

I'm not seeing anything wrong, and the capacitors don't look leaky, but I could replace them. How can I best proceed?
Sega "Gold Cartridge" in Master System
Hi, I'm looking for info on the compatibility of the "Gold Cartridge" with regards to the Master System. I was looking at one of these and it says on the box that it's made for the Mark III and Master System. However, the form factor is different than other Master System cartridges, and it's also nothing like a Sega Card. I've been looking for information online, but to my surprise I'm not coming up with any answers.
Are the Gold Cartridges compatible with (EU) Master System consoles? Do they fit in the cartridge slot?
What kind of switch is similar to my current keyboard
I have an old Logitech UltraX Premium low-profile scissor switch keyboard. Unfortunately this one's dieing, as one of the keys is now broken.
I'm not well versed in mechanical switches and I'm not native English, so some of the explained terminology is a bit harder to understand when I'm looking for the subtle differences in the switches.
I'm looking for the right switch that is somewhat similar to my current keyboard. On any given key I can apply some pressure, but the key will not press down. When I push a little harder, the key goes down to the bottom. What kind of switch am I looking for in this case? Linear, clicky, "tactile bump", ...?
I'm currently interested in the Keychron K5. It has similar dimensions with regards to height of the keys (around 2cm) and is a full layout.
Thanks in advance.

Software management for Windows Server
I have 15 VM's running for clients and I'm looking for a way to keep the tools up to date without having to connect to each server and do it manually. A few examples are WinDirStat, Firefox, SSMS, Filelocator, etc.

Where are the PINE64 monthly community updates?
It's been a while since they've made one.
I have a PineTime and my wife wants one too, so I was looking to see if there's any mention of a PT2 on the horizon, as well as catch up on all the hardware news, but to my surprise there hasn't been any news since april. Not a big deal, it's only a few months, but still, they used to provide monthly updates. Skipping an update can happen, but they basically skipped 3 months since the last one. What's going on?
