  • 5 seconds? How?

    My grub is set to 2sec.

    From pressing the power on button to an open start menu (I measure like this because the DE is still unusable for a good 5s after it becomes visible) it takes me about 36 seconds.

    I recently tried hibernation thinking it would speed things up, but it takes about 2 minutes... huge RAM bad I guess.

    (And yes, windows on the same hardware is way faster at about 17s, because it does some magic idk about)

    Yes! Fuck bambu.

  • V * A = W

    The device operates at a certain wattage. If the voltage is lower, you need more amps to reach the same watt. Amps is what makes conductors hot.

    Example:

    200V * 1A = 200W

    100V * 2A = 200W

    To quote the link above that you didn't read so I had to re-read to make sure I'm right:

    The issue stems from the difference in standardized voltages between regions, with the US running on 120 volts, compared to China's 220 volts (where bambu is based). This requires almost twice the current for the same total power draw in the US compared to most other regions, contributing to higher temperatures being reached due to Ohm's law.

    And about the ac adapter - it's not the cause of the burning issues. And if they specc it for china's 220V, it should work fine in most of europe.

  • full disk encryption on a VPS is not a silver bullet.

    A hypervisor-level attack (e.g., a cold boot or memory dump of the running VM) can extract the encryption keys from RAM.

    The VPS provider or anyone who compromises the hypervisor has that capability. That's not theoretical it's how many cloud forensic tools work.

    Afaik for most VPN providers it would be equally illegal to sniff your traffic without being prompted by lawenforcement.

    Good point about the single IP and ofc a whois lookup or abuse complaint could reveal your identity cause most VPS providers have your payment details and private infos.

  • Must be difficult if you judge an OS based on whether other users of it are nice online... how do you get anything done?

    Sarcasm aside, I used to mod ad artix community back when I was using it and it was 99% support requests that have already been answered somewhere else... so like most other linux communities. And I've seen my share of toxic people in most of them. I mean, maybe it changed for the worst from when I last experienced it, but then, just don't participate in the community?

    The OS itself is alright. Pretty much same as arch, but you hage to tinker more... It gets somewhat annoying writing your own init/unit files for each app that needs systemd, thats why I switched back to plain old arch. I can see the tradeoff being worth it if you dislike the systemd direction/philosophy enough.

    And I hate that artix puts it's flair on KDE, just give me the vanilla experience, I don't want to manually remove your ugly theme.

  • at the end of the day you’re handing your DNS

    use DoT/DoH

    the server runs on your VPS

    so instead of trusting a VPN provider you trust your VPS provider... that has physical (and virtual ofc.) access to the hardware your VM server runs on... brilliant!

  • No source code whatsoever.

    Don't spread 0-effort misinformation. It takes 20 seconds to find the source.

    There is a zip with the full project for ff and chrome respectively, which you can compile yourself and verify and read.

    Their strategy is to "hide" it because of the years long dmca takedowns. Read the wikipedia page on that if you want some extra info.

  • I use it on mobile. Works like it's supposed to.

    I dont use firefox

    Idk if the chrome version works on mobile.

    If you want to get rid of nearly all the paywalls, now you have a reason to switch.

  • How do I make Alt+V pull up KeePassXC if it's not already open AND trigger its auto-type prompt? (Mint 22.3)

    Jump

  • Yeah you probably have to play around with the flags to figure out the right approach. I can not look into it right now

  • How do I make Alt+V pull up KeePassXC if it's not already open AND trigger its auto-type prompt? (Mint 22.3)

    Jump

  • The problem is that your desktop environment's shortcut handler intercepts Alt+V before KeePassXC ever sees it, so the internal keybinding never fires. And when pgrep finds the process running, your command simply does nothing.

    The fix is to use KeePassXC's --auto-type CLI flag, which sends the auto-type signal to a running instance:

    Command for your custom shortcut (Alt+V):

     
        
bash -c 'pgrep -x keepassxc > /dev/null && keepassxc --auto-type || keepassxc'

    Not sure how keepass behaves though. Maybe you don't need the condition at all and can just run keepassxc --auto-type from the shortcut and if there is no running instance it will start it.

  • As far as I can see it is still just postman but the request and api definitions are stored in textfiles (and there are multiple projects that do exactly that already).

    It seems to me that the blog author is talking about something beyond that.
