6·7 天前(I personally don’t. But maybe…)
Vscode is an IDE, but only after I spent 15 minutes finding and selecting the appropriate java extensions and ensuring that my Linux system had Java installed.
But what was a 15 minute process to me, could easily be a 2 hour struggle to someone who is setting up a development environment for the first time and “just wants autocomplete and debugging”.
also as a bonus question, why does every IDE seem to require you to configure every single option before it can run code
What IDE’s have you tried?
Kate (and vscode) aren’t really IDE’s, they’re more like extremely extensible text editors. You can make them IDE’s, but they dob’t come like that out of the box.
On the other hands, actual IDE’s often have the inbuilt capability to install and manage the programming language related software.
3·10 天前Browser based game with slidehopping. I like to call it the only non dead movement shooter.
2·13 天前Yeah.
I also occasionally use bookmarks bar as session save/restore, since firefox can open all bookmarks in a folder if you right click on it.
Firefox bookmarks are extremely versatile and underrated.
The respawns take forever
They take much less time now, but back when respawns took 10 minutes instead of 3, I used to do homework/work between rounds.
I got a TON of work done that way.
I made an ansible role for this:
https://github.com/CSUN-CCDC/ccdc-2024/tree/main/linux/ansible/roles/docker
It was designed for a cybersecurity competition, and can back up containers and volumes. The volume back up works by creating another container and then mounting the volume to that container, and within that container a simple tar backup is ran.

FOSS alternatives are rancher desktop or podman desktop.
You’re probably going to end up on Jitsi meet, but I’m also going to drop a recommendation for bigbluebutton.
I recently noticed that it was integrated into the open source Learning-Management-System Canvas, which every school I have gone to so far uses.
Although bigbluebutton doesn’t seem to explicitly support e2ee (but maybe this counts for something), if you are already using Canvas, BigBlueButton definitely worth looking at.
I really, really wish people at my school would use the integrated bigbluebutton instead of using zoom, especially given I’ve seen people occasionally have issues with authentication for zoom, but all of that stuff is handled with bigbluebutton because it’s fully browser based and integrated into Canvas.

Not open source (right now, at least).
It could be an old service on that same ip. Zoomeye/shodan don’t rescan on the spot, they keep records of old scans.
Similar site as shodan, but different company. I’d recommend checking there as well.
15·23 天前This feature used to be in KDE 5 as well though, but with a size cap. I suspect the removal of the size cap is intentional rather than a bug.
4·23 天前I could totally see someone coding a function that increases the mouse pointer by x% every y mouse shakes, and then neglecting to put in a size cap.

1·26 天前Copyright is for corporations to protect their assets, not for individuals. The legal system is set up in such a way that it can be weaponised by the wealthy, but is basically unusable by the poor.

Maybe not some obscure ones, but here are some lesser known ones:
Talos Linux. It’s an immutable operating system designed specifically to deploy kubernetes.
OpenSuse Harvester Think Proxmox, but instead of VM’s and LXC containers, it’s VM’s and Kubernetes.
XCP-NG is a RHEL based distro designed for managing Linux virtual machines using the xen hypervisor, as opposed to KVM. Think Proxmox, but RHEL and Xen (also no LXC). However, it does not come with a web ui out of the box, you have to deploy it yourself. Technically, XCP is a Xen distribution, since Xen is a kernel with nothing but a hypervisor that runs under the main distro, but the primary management virtual machine is RHEL based, and uses Linux.
Speaking of Proxmox, Proxmox is technically a Linux distro.
SnowflakeOS is a project that aims to bring a GUI focused experience to NixOS.
TurnkeyLinux (site is loading very, very slowly for me right now) is not a single distribution, but rather a set of debian based distributions that are designed to be turnkey appliance virtual machines that contain and host a specific app. To deploy the app, all you have to do is set up the virtual machine.
Now, here are some not-linux, but interesting distros:
SmartOS. They ported KVM to unix, and also can use Linux syscall translation (similar to wine) to run apps in containers as well. There is also Bhyve. It’s a very interesting hypervisor platform.
OmniOS is similar. Bhyve, KVM, and Linux syscall translation in containers.
3·27 天前Bluesky also offers both composable moderation and the ability to choose your own algorithm.
Bluesky claims to offer the ability to choose your own algorithm, but this is not the same as actually doing it. Because Bluesky is not truly decentralized, and they control the backend where the algorithm and content sorting software is actually run, there is no way to verify if Bluesky is actually using the algorithm the user desires for them to use.
Although I don’t think Bluesky will be lying so early, I fear in the longer term, enshittification will get to them, and that may manifest as users having the illusion of freedom, but actually having even less choice then what they started with on Twitter.
1·25 天前Old post, but if you connect your phone to your PC using bluetooth, you can play audio to your PC from your phone, at least this works for me on KDE plasma. I use this to continue listening to music/podcasts from my phone without having to set up any sort of sync solution.
Previously, I was usin scrcpy, an adb based solution to route audio from my phone to my computer.

This is a linux terminal tutorial, but in the style of a text based rpg.
