I like computers, trains, space, radio-related everything and a bunch of other tech related stuff. User of GNU+Linux.
I am also dumb and worthless.
My laptop is ThinkPad L390y running Arch.
I own RTL-SDRv3 and RSP1 clone.

I guess CRTs were fine. I used to play a lot with that. If it’s looking funny, use degauss and watch the magic.


Doesn’t natively work under Wayland, unfortunately.
As-is, it’s not suitable for a touchscreen device.
And with MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 the window buttons are broken.
Now I don’t know whether you’re making a joke about a thick bush or a fursuit.


Might be just gathering choices.

I used to do absolutely everything on my phone, until I got a ThinkPad.
But yeah, I went from a terrible HP that had SMR HDD and a TN panel where I constantly had to move my head depending on what I wanted to read because it had no contrast to 2-in-1 ThinkPad with pretty nice touchscreen IPS and NVMe SSD that I can charge with the same power bank and wall adapter I use for my phone.
I am not really joking with that screen. When I wanted to do something beyond text, I’d either connect it to TV, or use a HDMI USB capture card connected to my phone.


Well, now I know what that WAP stands for.
I just straight up didn’t have a room. At first I even had to sleep in the same bed with my dad. Well, “bed”. Extendable sofa where you had to lay at a specific position to avoid the springs. And eventually just some cheap ass soft foam mattresses that I am sure weren’t meant to be directly put onto anything hard.
Though I finally got a bed when I was around 10. Still in the room with dad.
Mother had her own room.
I ended up spending most time on the toilet.


Well, that is an available preset too: https://virt.moe/cferr/wxqcqcd


That github link randomly redirects me to https://virt.moe/cferr/editor/
Huh?
Edit: No I am just a fucking idiot. I thought “Github Website” was a single link, not 2 links.


I really hope you read the instructions to the end before starting.
“Remove the diskette from its protective envelope” (it stayed in the box)
“Take the diskette by one of its corners” (“What corners, it’s round?”)


Am I the only one using memtest after every time I handle RAM?


High pitched noises sometimes. I have an audio spectrum visualizer app installed to confirm these. But they can be pretty weird as they bounce around. You’ll get these heat spots. Unfortunately, I feel like my ears are degrading now.
Anyway, dimmable LED lights are often a problem due to PWM. Only full brightness is quiet.
Smell, I don’t even know what the hell that was. There is or was something in the back of one bus. I wouldn’t say it’s smell, but… something. Just a spicy punch that doesn’t quite let me breathe in. I noted down the license plate if I’ll experience it again to confirm it’s the same vehicle, but this wasn’t the first time, though unfortunately I didn’t copy it that first time. Same line though, so possibly same vehicle as well.
But I am not sure if I was the only one, no one was visibly bothered, but who knows.


Doesn’t help that I often get fascinated by the most basic things, and then they just occupy my mind.
Recent example: Internet
When I say I get distracted by the internet, you’d probably think I go to TikTok or YouTube shorts. No, I mean internet itself.
I set up Tailscale, and it’s running on my headless home computer. And oh my god, I for some reason find it fascinating. I might not even have anything to do, but I just SSH in, or even run VNC, and it’s just awesome.
I am accessing a computer in a different city, using it as if it was here.
Then I run sshfs, and it looks like local storage. How awesome is that?
And it’s mobile data on both sides. So much data going through the air, through walls, to a distant tower, on both sides.
Plus it’s so quick! Just milliseconds, and the bits are here.
Literally what web is too. Using computers from not just different cities, but even different continents.
I’ve used it for a few months now, but I still sometimes just log in just because. It still fascinates me that I can access my computer from so far away.
Oh and oh god, I almost forgot about when I ran SDR++/RTL-TCP server on it, and used SDR from a different city. Sampled RF signal live, right over the internet, how cool is that?
Welp anyway, right now I tried to watch some video, but got distracted by random thought of RAMdisk. So, now I am listening to music from tmpfs for no good reason.


I’ve heard Oracle just randomly cancels these accounts.

Is that enough to be problematic for GNSS?


Pointers are way too confusing for me.

Works with RackNerd IP.
For quick graphical management I use FX File Explorer because it keeps the timestamps when moving files.
For something more I use… Termux. I like to sort things based on timestamps as well, but often I like to set some custom modification time, or copy modification time of a file being replaced (e.g. replacing old 128kbps MP3 for FLAC), and I don’t know of any other way than
touch.Similarly I don’t know what else to use for syncing directories other than
rsync.Plus, I can run SSH in Termux, that means Rsync-ing between PC and my phone is pretty easy.
And it also means I can mount the phone over SSHFS (granted KDE Connect already takes care of this).
I can also use GPG for encryption and decryption of files.
And Vim works fine for me for text editing too.
And now since I already have that, say I want to access some files on any computer. It probably has a browser, and Termux has NGINX, coupled with FancyIndex it gets pretty nice for file access. I like the Material theme.
Now, a bit of a disclaimer: BE CAREFUL WHAT ADDRESSES THE PHONE IS LISTENING ON
I set them manually rather than the typical default of all interfaces. Unfortunately, Android seems to have no firewall. I can easily reach things on my phone connected to mobile data thanks to IPv6. This may or may not be desired. Oh, and NAT isn’t for security either, so don’t think you’re safe because you only use IPv4. Perhaps devices behind same NAT aren’t isolated.
Edit: Example of the WebUI with Material theme (sorted by date because I was able to set the file timestamps):
