I do like how I can use the msvc toolchain for x64 and write asm, though, since M$ decided intrinsics can replace inline asm for whatever reason. C and Go are great languages, though. Golang is amazing for backend work.

Sweet who would've thought after making a "Secure" email service that rats you out to the cops and an overpriced VPN service that Proton would make a shitty AI model that shills their own products?

Routers, Switches, and Hubs MrArborsexual!jNrC5JFs3k 07/22/2025 (Tue) 00:36:55 No. 1593 [Reply]
Came home today to my router was a very very hot, very dead, brick. Not sure what happened, but I assume it is due to me living in a house with ancient wiring (some of the oldest parts are knob & tube, and I am afraid of ever touching that lest I awaken demons). Now I am stuck with the ISP router until I replace it. I've rather liked MikroTik products in the past, and I'm eyeballing the L009. Anyone here use it before? Any ideas for an SFP-RJ45 module that will work at 2.5Gb with it? I'm also open to other ideas for routers, and other networking gear. I just don't want Gaymer bullshit, or built in wifi.
Your fortune: Good Luck

maybe its just because PHP was my first language so its native to me but all the arguments people make against PHP seem abstracted from the everyday reality of using it. kinda like when 4channoids cry about rust all day while never actually developing anything themselves while everything gets rustified

Making the computer *yours* Anonymous 01/12/2024 (Fri) 04:54:10 No. 359 [Reply]
People tend towards ricing their desktops, but this is really just visual stuff. What kind of touches do you have to make the computer an extension of yourself rather than collections of other peoples software? I personally set the login PAM auth settings to have rootok as sufficient. getty logins run from uid 1 so you don't have to put in a password. Unprivileged users (including ssh) can't login without the rest of the authentication modules. Having a file that gets printed whenever a shell starts as a motd is pretty useful too.

I like making aliases in my bashrc that replace fancy technical commands with nice layman commands. On Debian, I replaced "doas" with "pls", and "doas apt-get" with "please". If I want to install cmatrix, I just tell my computer "please install cmatrix" and it installs it. I'm thinking of making my own automated package installer for Slackware that's just going to be nothing but this kind of syntax.

It is cruel irony that I find vim the most comfy terminal based text editor. No other compares to it. But is so fucking complex and overloaded with features, that every time I need to correct my workflow it's major pain the ass.

Can you get a free Linux VPS with full admin access? Anonymous 06/25/2025 (Wed) 01:11:37 No. 1496 [Reply]
I'm looking for a free VPS with Debian 12 Linux full admin to set up an imageboard, but I don't think there is one. I'm tired of searching, so I'd better turn to this imageboard to see what you can recommend.

>free Linux VPS with full admin access laugh https://terminator.aeza.net/en/ alright i don't want to be a dick nya i don't really think you can do this, other than the numerous "free" cloud tiers that will ask you for your card then turn up a bill for your bandwidth. there are things like tilde.club (can't remember others) but besides always being available on a community/as-is/if-i'm-jiving-with-it basis they are also, uh, all non-root. honestly, if you waltz around lowendbox/lowendtalk for a suitable KVM, reading carefully, and spend A DOLLAR per month for actual service from a small-to-medium provider you could walk away with something pretty nice. alternatively, https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/services/hosting, or tunnel through cf from your home machine shades

you can rent a low-tier vps for less then a 1$/month i pay 45$/4years for 1thread/1gbram/1gigabit + 96gb disk space

>>1478 my fellow retardhappy but a nick name doesn't make non anonymous. i've been wondering about it latelydown

Yes, I'm on Lemmy with the lemy.lol instance and on Mastodon. Personally I like Lemmy a lot more because it's very hard to find content at least for me on Mastodon. Ive never experienced any of the problems that people discuss on here, I just ignore the stuff that I obviously won't like neco_dance

>>1480 can you kindly explain me how it works, in terms of, are you able to send direct private messages across fediverse to other users? (e.g. lemmy, mastodon, peertube etc)

For Lemmy on Mobile, I use the apps Boost and Jeroba but I want to stop using Boost because its closed source. Any recommendations? I think Jeroba is fine I just have 2 accounts and like to experiment with new clients
