I'm glad Rustdesk exists.

I'm self hosting it, costs me nothing.

A PR disaster: Microsoft has lost trust with its users, and Windows Recall is the straw that broke the camel's back ( www.windowscentral.com )

It's a nightmare scenario for Microsoft. The headlining feature of its new Copilot+ PC initiative, which is supposed to drive millions of PC sales over the next couple of years, is under significant fire for being what many say is a major breach of privacy and security on Windows. That feature in question is Windows Recall, a...

Yeah but there's like 20 of them, and many are half-baked. How is a n00b to choose one?

Going rogue is how the TWiT network started I think - when Leo and co used to have a show called The Screensavers but it ended.

There needs to be a way to only get one push notification for every new message in a group chat

I dont know about others, but sometimes I am not able to check my phone, or be fully present in a conversation that I'm part of. Maybe I'm concentrating on work, or driving, and not able to look. It gets distracting when my phone is constantly buzzing and chiming for 5 minutes straight. Muting the chat can help, but if you...

Perhaps try Alertify.

In my case I use Voice Notify which reads out the messages. Giving the phone a shake shuts it up.

What radio program?

I still listen to This Week in Tech which has been going since early 2000s.

Could be an unusual way to keep cool. I've seen my dog lick furniture...

I wonder if ebay ebike conversion kits are still a thing. Did mine 15 years ago with an electric front wheel and it's still going today.

Server as heating device - how do I do this?

So I have this silly idea/longterm project of wanting to run a server on renewables on my farm. And I would like to reuse the heat generated by the server, for example to heat a grow room, or simply my house. How much heat does a server produce, and where would you consider it best applied? Has anyone built such a thing?

I miss the GPU mining days from long ago. Used to have a five old computers with potato GPUs on a time switch to do just this or folding at home as a fun experiment many years ago. It kinda worked in the earliest days but asics killed the income offset after a few months.

The old Core 2 Quad Dell with three dvb-t tuners and a few hard drives still dumps a fair bit of heat into the room.

Well it's a series of tubes - you might have been in a different one to bash.org (rip).

Glad I could bring this one to you :)

How to disable scroll wheel in Fedora 39 (Nobara)?

My mouse won't stop constantly scrolling and a replacement is a couple days away. How can I temporarily disable the scroll wheel? All the instructions I can find deal with xorg or xinput which I do not have. I can't find any scroll wheel setting in either settings or piper....

I_Miss_Daniel ,

I don't know how.

Perhaps unscrew the mouse and disconnect the wires going to the scroll wheel instead?

I_Miss_Daniel ,

I'm happy with it except for the inability to hibernate out of the box. Same for most distros though I think?

I'm using a cheapo Antsig smart IR thing instead of my phone. They seem to work with most things I've tried to pair them with.

I know it's not what you're asking for really, but might be a useful option depending on your use case.

I use them to control the aircon, tv (on / off / aspect reset etc) and stereo volume.

Last time I tried to find a decent universal IR app on the play store, they all seemed to suck. Mind you, that was for my note 3 a few months ago.

Nothing wrong with a weekly shower in some conditions.

A good podcast or TV show might help.

    This sounds more like anger management issues than autism.

    It's a loose lose situation.

    Just tried on SwiftKey. It also preferences loose.

    I_Miss_Daniel ,

    Interesting.

    It displays a preference for loose?
