    I'm sorry, what were we talking about?

  • That was mine... In the early 00s. And again with a guest speaker... In my advanced marketing class... In the late 00s. I will never forget how that lady sat on a desk, explaining with vivid, passionate excitement and lust, how waiting for your life partner to be your first time is, moans and quivers, so good~

    The fuck, Smith, I thought we were going to fuck around and watch movies while you go "make some copies" only to never return, like every other day. The fuck is this shit. Even your own kid in this class is visibly distraught and confused. Poor guy is fucking scarred for life.

  • So I have an off-the-shelf nas from synology; while I have two additional servers (ThinkServer, VPS) that are barebones running Debian/proxmox, I haven't moved away from the synology box because it's so... not "easy" but it's like bowling with the gutter guards in place. For example, if you tell the firewall "hey, block everything" it will try, fail to connect to the browser you are using, revert, and tell you. It has a nice web UI that is similar to a standard OS UI. It let's you learn and try stuff, and when things go sideways it's not an evening of combing through forums and pages of documentation. I can, I have, done the 'from the ground up' on the other two systems, but for the syno: why would I build my own box, redo effort - more effort - to get to the same outcome currently? So I will hold onto it until EoL, whenever that will be.

    Not to sound like an advertisement, but it does file sharing pretty easily ootb, and you can either set up a DDNS with a subdomain of your choosing, and a list of domains owned by synology (for newbies), or you can use that DDNS system + hook it up your own domain, like MyWebsiteWhatever[.]org. Either way, you can then access your files via a browser, software for win/mac/linux, or from their mobile apps. I also use their photo solution, and have my family pics backed up straight from their phones. Every quarter I make sure that they haven't been logged out (system update / reboots seem to jostle things) and all is well. They have a system for calendar/tasks, as well as for contacts, but I personally have moved away to a direct "radicale" (software name) system, which I think is what synology uses at its core for cal/task/contacts, just adding their gui. Anything else (for my situation) gets a docker container, and this is how I learned about containers. They seem like a black box, but they are absolutely fantastic. Again, great for learning in a controlled environment.

    The whole system is very hand-holding, a bit too much so at times. But coming from a "I'm a geek who wants to learn 'proper' network sharing, and this seems to be a nice solution", after researching a few popular options, I think I did well. If you can setup things like a static IP in your router, if you can port forward, and if you're willing to shell out the initial cost for the system (which is overpriced, honestly, but you're paying for the simplicity) and hard drives... you should try it. It's not as scary as it looks. Shoot, if you want more details I can dive in and explain specific stuff, examples, screenshots. Though maybe over DMs so I don't flood the post with unrelated stuff :p

  • It's more effort ofc, but host your own solution via a nas or something. I have all my shit on one at home, syncing to devices and offering access over the internet, and I know that my shit is safe because I know what the fuck I'm doing, and strangely I'm not trying to fuck myself out of a monthly subscription or something. Never worry about getting flagged by some bot and getting my account purged. Very, very slim chance of a data breach, since the system auto-updates and is secured behind passwords, mfa, permissions on each user. It's my data, under my control, doing what I want and nothing else. And it's freaking fantastic.

  • This is usually (expected) followed up with... "well, the fuck are you going to do about it, then" and this fuckface decided to pussy out and fuck over 500 people.

    So I mean, half right, but that's still a giant red F in my book.

  • I'm sorry, let me just elect representatives in a different state, brb.

    If it was so simple, explain why it has taken so many state governments so long to do something about it? It's almost like it's way more complicated than you make it out to be. My state has abortion on the ballot this time around - I don't expect it to pass. In addition, the state wants to make my harder for citizens to get further measures on the ballot. It's like lots of us are working against the awful bodies of government. Imagine that. Land of the free, mmmmhm.

    Also lmfao, yes, mmhm, absolutely, I'm a single-issue voter. Honey, I'm gay as fuck, the day a baby pops out of my partners asshole because I knocked them up, the day I'm the fuck outta here. It's almost like people with a broad worldview can have multiple issues they care about or something, and - stay with me here - they don't need to be a member of an affected class to want to help them improve their lives and well-being. Crazy, right?

    The loudest people don't have a damn clue what the hell they are arguing about, they just want to hear themselves speaking louder than others. "I got mine, suckers, ez pz" energy is strong with this one. It's okay though, they are getting ranked-choice... aaaaaaaaany day now... (it's okay, it's ez pz)

  • WWAN unlocking on Spiral Linux

    (my first post on lemmy so I hope I'm doing this right)

    Distro: Spiral Linux (Debian, KDE spin), by recommendation

    System: Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 2 (Intel) (distro recommended as I am looking for Debian(-based), + btrfs, snapshots, and fde, included via the gui installer)

    I'm having issues getting ModemManager to unlock my X55 modem. This morning I wiped my drive to install Spiral (KDE), coming from Kubuntu 24.04. While the modem worked after running the proper fcc unlock script in Kubuntu, it is entirely missing in my Spiral install. While I assumed that it would not be that simple, I copied /etc/ModemManager from my Kubuntu live environment to Spiral, ran

    sudo ln -sft /etc/ModemManager/fcc-unlock.d /usr/share/ModemManager/fcc-unlock.available.d/105b:e0ab

    and restarted, but alas that's not enough, so I'm stuck. I have added the network profile + apn to ModemManager (the UI) but of course without the modem unlocked, I can't connect. I'm new to cellular modems in Linux (this was a windows machine until ~6 weeks ago) but I'm otherwise comfortable with the terminal and commands. The modem was working as expected last night in Kubuntu.

    I haven't got the system setup yet (trying this first before going further) so if I botch this, an install is no problem. I'm assuming it's either (or both?) a service, or a missing package that sets up what's needed, but I'm at a loss as to how to proceed.

    I discussed this here https://lemmy.world/comment/10540509 this morning, though I think I got all the important details typed up above. But maybe it could be useful somehow.

    Any suggestions are welcomed :)
