What is Hackers' Pub?

Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.

"The ICE officer not only was not run over [as Mr. Trump claimed in a social media posting last evening], was not even bruised, took out his gun, shot and killed her, then calmly walked to her crashed vehicle, and then, folks, got away. Literally drove away. Now, if indeed he was violently and viciously run over by a car, my God, this man is a medical marvel."

PCが壊れてからバタバタして、しばらくMisskey離れてました。一応の応急処置で環境ができたので再起。

それにしても、メモリとかSSDが本当に高い。3か月前の3倍以上の値段になっている。

It's kind of weird to see the regime suggest that this guy getting dragged by a car in a past incident justifies cold blooded murder.

I think it provides clear motive for ignoring the law and his training, and I hope that prosecutors use it against him *and* those in his chain of command at their criminal trials.

看到一個站友名字叫「草莓餡」,不禁想到,大家認為自己是什麼餡的呢?

應該有人是胡椒餅那種嗆辣多汁肉餡吧?或是酸甜恰好的土鳳梨餡?我自己希望我是肉桂蘋果餡,但好像沒有那麼溫暖豐富。很好奇大家會認為自己是是什麼餡的?或希望是什麼餡?

What does Tanya Richard from the Canadian Museum of History and the Canadian War Museum think about the importance of open heritage? "Without these connections, these sparks, we wouldn't know how to cater to our public. We wouldn't be asking our artists the important questions. This sometimes messy and boisterous and chaotic work can be challenging, but it's always worth it."

Linux Desktop Disappointment and Windows

Why is switching from Windows to Linux Desktop so hard?

I have been always using Microsoft Windows as my Desktop OS, and I would consider myself a super user since my apprenticeship as a system administrator.
I have always tried stuff with Linux and raspberry pi, started digging into Linux after my apprenticeship. Mostly server stuff.
The last two years I got into FreeBSD, running on servers.
So I thought to myself, why not switching to a Linux desktop (FreeBSD desktop would have been a little bit too hard I thought).
The decision was motivated mostly because of the cloud and AI stuff Microsoft is pushing everything into.

I prepared everything, moved personal files from my PC to my small FreeBSD server on a Samba share.
Exported the most relevant files etc, almost like deleting everything.
But I went with dual boot, Linux Mint Xfce on a secondary drive.
Installation went smooth, then I encountered the first disappointment: Nextcloud Desktop (self hosted, stores files I need on PC, Laptop, Phone as well as contacts and calender) does not support cloud files. So I had to pick what I wanted to sync.
Whatever.
Second small Issue, there is no YubiKey Manager for Linux (as far as I have been looking).
Fortunately YubiKey Authenticator works.

I continued my journey switching to software I have not used before.
This evening I wanted to do something that would have taken me 20 Minutes on my old setup. I have not been able to complete it after a few hours.
The issue is:
OpenVPN Setup only connects using the console, not via network manager, so good so far.
The RDP File won't work with remmina RDP client because some sort of authentication via remote Gateway which works on Windows out of the box.
I couldn't figure out why.

Now I am disappointed.
This should be easier for someone like me, with technical knowledge and error solving soft skills.

I will probably need to go back to Windows, because I am used to it and also because of solutions someone in corporate IT is building, that only support Windows.

Two things probably would have required me to use Windows nevertheless:
- gaming, which I am not doing often
- adobe Lightroom, because it is just so easy to use.

Sorry to disappoint y'all. I don't like it either.

Have a good night.

기뻐하는 이들과 함께 기뻐하고 우는 이들과 함께 우십시오. 서로 뜻을 같이하십시오 🍝.
오만한 생각을 버리고 비천한 이들과 어울리십시오. 스스로 슬기롭다고 여기지 마십시오 🧆.

Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. Have the same regard for one another 🍝.
Do not be haughty but associate with the lowly; do not be wise in your own estimation 🧆.
Do not repay anyone evil for evil; be concerned for what is noble in the sight of all 🥫.
If possible, on your part, live at peace with all 😋.

Uruguay just proved what's possible: they shifted to 98% renewable electricity in just two years—and it slashed poverty rates in the process.

The secret? They framed it as economic opportunity, not climate doom. With public ownership ensuring access for all, they built a model that works for people AND the planet.
