@corvus My main setup here is a deskop with 3 monitors and KDE, with a side monitor hooked to a laptop with xfce. Use the side monitor for chatting and watching videos. That system is really low end though, so I'm thinking about switching it to i3.
@corvus I use KDE on several systems, XFCE on a couple, MATE on one, IceWM, Ratpoison, i3, Enlightenment and xmonad occasionally on others. Gnome I avoid wherever possible to avoid lock-in. I also use Haiku occasionally, but it's not a unix DE, but a separate OS with its own gui.
Update on that old mastodon server, apparently that 844 got down to 817 before it gave up, so some of them were just temporarily down. That's still a big mess of servers that it couldn't deregister itself from. I guess I need to figure out a new use for that server now.
@stuff That's one unfortunate thing about federation, my first instance, freehold.earth iirc, ended up getting extremely outdated because they didn't update their software for a long time, and then finally just dropped it. Luckily I had moved to my own instance before theirs closed.
Just finally took down my old mastodon server. There's 844 sites that it's trying to contact to unregister itself, but that aren't loading. I wonder if they're just temporarily down, or if they're sites that they were taken down without properly self destructing.
Isekai series ideas
First series: The usual, dies, wakes up in another world, does all the things.
Second series: Wakes up in the future as a robot because his brain was frozen in the original world, but he still remembers the Isekai world from the first series.

@pro IMO, the only way that OpenBSD would be more secure is if the Fedora install has something open by default than OpenBSD doesn't, or if they're using a library with a security hole that is not the same library that is in use on OpenBSD. The vulnerabilities with the mail packages themselves should be the same. If you know how to lock down Fedora and keep it up to date, it should be basically as secure.
@anime Oh yeah, I've caught up on all the ones I was following there, but some of the ones I only had rss feeds for I've misplaced... Disappointing there's no RSS on the new site.

@ademalsasa I use Pleroma and Mastodon both. I prefer Pleroma even though it's probably less userfriendly than Mastodon. The nice thing about Pleroma though is it supports both its own interface, and the Masto interface.
@deutrino @ademalsasa I think Usenet predated Fidonet, but they were both pretty close. I think Usenet was a project of various universities with some of the very early autodialers and UUCP in 1979, while Fidonet emerged out of the Hobby space as home computers grew in popularity, in the 83-84 range. I was a Fidonet user long before I knew what Usenet was though.
PiKVM
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mdevaev/pikvm-v3-hat These are pretty cool. Can't wait to get some in the home lab and try them out.
@stuff Where did you find one for so much? Earlier this year the one I stayed in was $100 per night. Looks like that one is $140 now if I wanted to rent it later this week.
@gat Yeah, I wonder. Though, when you're out in rural areas, it's probably close to 90-95%. I can count on one hand the number of houses I went to in my home town that had 0 firearms. (That's why it wasn't a huge deal when they made firearm ownership mandatory there.)
re: I remodeled my house
@stuff In mine, the garage opens straight to the kitchen. Yeah, there probably should be an entryway for you to remove any muddy clothes before the kitchen or laundry room. I don't have a good way of moving the door though, the only other position would put it into the living room. We don't even technically have a mudroom either though, the living room just has a tiny spot of linoleum for you to step onto when removing shoes/etc by the front door.
@Moon Wow, I've never had that happen with btrfs, but I haven't used it as extensively as zfs. How about adding a device to the file system so that it has more space to expand out to?
@fribbledom The 3 on the right have 2 mines, the 2 on the top have 1 mine, that means that the two in the bottom left are mines. That means that the 4 in the corner now has 2 mines adjacent. Next, the top pair are the 50-50 chance, and the bottom 5 and 4 are a couple of 2/3rds chance of being a mine, so I would have gone with the far left remaining square not being a mine. Then, if that's not a mine, then the far right box is a mine, then you have another 50/50 chance.
