I have a keyboard hotkey to take the copy/paste buffer and display a QR code on screen. Straightforward to implement on macOS, and presumably Linux too.
macOS: pbpaste | qrencode -t ANSI

Maybe not what you want, but have you considered VPN’ing at your router? Doesn’t help if you travel, so maybe worthless…
You can/could also find Coffee HOWTO in your distro’s HOWTO package. (I found a reference back to v0.5 of the document in 1998.)
Has simple schematics to get you started for the hardware, using the parallel port to toggle relays.
It’s a very neat little document, and inspired me to write a simple kernel module so I could echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/whatever/coffee0 to turn pin 0 high on the parallel port. (This is silly, and it’s much easier to just do things in user space!)


…and regular old murder for ReiserFS.
Not sure what it is about filesystem maintainers…


Oh durr, yep, agree…not the flying experience I’d want.
Humans weren’t meant to live with zero autonomy.
Not every parent removes all autonomy from their child. Sorry that happened to you, sounds like it sucked.


Pretty sure I’d get up and walk off the plane. Not sure I wanna be on that flight with that flight crew.
IANAL but it might be better for the future lawsuit to be forced off.


Not just UNIX-like, but actual UNIX.
IIRC there were some UNIX-certified Linux distros out there too, not sure if they’re still around.


Only one of them is UNIX.


Cool, I recommend it!
I have my public facing reverse proxy point to my public services, and I also have it set up as a “roadwarrior” VPN to my home. So, I can connect my phone via WireGuard to my VPS, and a local DNS resolves my private services to the private IP addresses in my home network (so, I also run a reverse proxy on my server, for internal services).
I also have an off-site backup using this — just a raspberry pi and an HDD at family’s, that rsyncs+snapshots over the WireGuard network.
I’m sure I’m not following all the best practices here, but so far so good.


This is the element Ru (not some whacky AI backed cryptocurrency).

VPS with a public ip (which just takes all the fun out of selfhosting)
Why do you say this? My VPS only runs a reverse proxy and WireGuard, with all services hosted on my computers at home.

March in San Francisco is feeling like August in LA.
But what if the foe is really the Epstein files?
Having trouble finding it but I swear my PNY Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 (I think?) circa 2003 came with a Linux 3D desktop/launcher software that sounds like this. (X11 based I guess.)
Not sure if it was bundled with the card, came with the Nvidia drivers, or what…but it worked just fine with Linux at the time (probably Slackware, not positive what I was running then).


I’ve heard stories of grad students flat out refusing to work with HF. (Never relevant for me, other than being something very scary.)
Having kids has made random conversations somewhat frequent for me.


Remember that RAID and redundancy is not backup.
Try to 3-2-1, or something similar/better, if you can.
I am fairly sloppy here, and I am also very cheap. I have multiple copies in my home for important stuff (mainly Immich), the in use copy being on SSD and a few backups on spinning rust. I have a raspberry pi with an external HDD at family’s place, with a daily rsync+snapshot, for off site backups.
Of course, I’ve never had a catastrophic failure, so who knows how smooth that would be…
For those who want AWD, range will be somewhat reduced.
