When I worked help desk, a coworker of mine took a call where someone called in because one of the thin clients was on fire. The user was advised to call 911.
Well, did he try to turn it off and NOT back on again?

And yet I do not think I will be using my Bosch in 25 years because some cheap internal plastic part will have broken down while the Makita would still run.
I don’t think you can import pfSense configurations into OPNsense. I switched from a DIY pfSense box as well and redid the config.
You can look for a converter or install pfSense onto it though.
Because it’s dope.
Also, according to their website the 10 and 25 Gbit/s packages cost the same per month.
Also, still cheaper than my 1 Gbit/s connection.
My dad has an old Makita cordless drill from 1995 which he used for everything from assembling Ikea furniture to drilling holes in cement walls. Complete metal innards, full metal case, battery that’s big and heavy enough to bludgeon somebody to death with.
Until one day I bought a fancy new Bosch cordless screwdriver with Li-ion battery, brushless motor and 1/4 the size and weight of the Makita.
At first he laughed at me for buying a toy, then he tried it. He ordered one as well the week after and uses it pretty much exclusively since then.
Still keeps the Makita box and drill around purely for the retro look but even with fresh batteries the amount of torque they put out is not even in the same league.
Obviously that is the exception rather than the rule and most technological advances went into making companies more profits instead of building better products, but there are some advancements that made power tools better. Li-ion batteries and brushless motors being two of the big ones.
They are expensive but I run a OPNsense DEC740 and have no issues with my Gigabit fiber, even without modem and the PPPoE overhead.
You can still try playing with hardware offload on/off and if you use PPPoE, it runs on a single core by default.
Found the Austrian. :) #tirolgehtanders
Interesting, the camera is almost always the weakest link in early 3D games for me.
The real camera controls in Ship of Harkinian are a game changer. It suddenly feels like a modern game.
I really like that you can view who upvoted/downvoted a post on Lemmy. Makes for some interesting analysis on some posts.
Does it lock up when booting? Fedora’s kernel has issues booting on Surface devices since Fedora 39.
You either need to switch kernels (e.g. linux-surface kernel) on a different machine or switch distro.
Running an outdated Fedora version is not the solution.
That only applies to the GNOME variant, the KDE spin is missing the third party repo toggle.
At least the Flathub repo is fixed on the GNOME variant now. The Nvidia repo is added but the driver is not installed, meaning you still need to use the CLI to install the drivers.
No, it’s like buying a car without understanding how the engine works, which a lot of people do.
My first sentence when I get connected to a chat bot is always “Let me speak to a human”.
It caters to a middle ground that barely exists, meaning it doesn’t have enough options for a power user and too many for a newcomer.
For example, a newcomer doesn’t know what a root account is and doesn’t have to care, yet they have to choose if they want to enable or disable the account. They can also remove their administrator privileges without knowing what it means for them. I get asked what a root account is every time somebody around me tries to install Fedora.
I recommend spinning up a Ubuntu 24.04 VM and taking a look at their installer.
They have a clear structure on how to install Ubuntu step by step while Fedora presents you everything at once. They properly hide the advanced stuff and only show it when asked for it. They have clear toggles for third party software right at the installer and explain what they do. Fedora doesn’t even give you the option to install H264 codecs or Nvidia drivers.
It also looks a lot cleaner and doesn’t overload people with too much info on a single screen. And yet it can still do stuff like automated installing and has active directory integration out of the box, where the Fedora installer miserably fails for a “Workstation” distro.
The Fedora installer works, but it doesn’t do much more than that and the others do it better in many areas.
Long-time Fedora user here. I do not think Fedora is noob friendly at all.
I really like Fedora for their newish packages without breaking constantly. I still would not recommend it for beginners.

What for? It’s not like any more updates are planned.
Sodium-based batteries currently have a lower energy density than lithium-based batteries so they are only useful in some applications.
