For security disable password authentication - use public key instead, disable root login via ssh - use sudo or su from another user.

To reduce the number of attempts of others trying to get in change the ssh port and/or set-up fail2ban.

You could also set a firewall rule to only allow ssh from your IP address, if you have a static address at home and only need access from there, or have a way to VPN into your home network. Make sure you have a static address if you do this though, you don’t want your IP to change and be left locked out of your server.

Yeah, it would be insane not to buy a Tesla self-driving taxi, they pay for themselves

The “correcthorse” part

Yeah, I was mostly thinking of smaller businesses that used it because it was part of the office suite they were subscribed to and not the professional creative, print or whatever places

Yeah, tbh I was surprised several years ago when I found out it was still being updated and included with 365, since they basically don’t do anything to push people to use it. I still can’t believe they aren’t allowing people on 365 to use it unsupported after they drop support or at least release a good converter to convert them to .docx or .pptx - I can imagine there’s plenty of businesses on office 365 that either: will forget that an important document is in publisher format or will completely fail to take any action to convert/migrate their publisher documents and will be scrabbling to try and replace/convert them.

I remember using publisher a lot in school in the 2000s because it was better for doing layout stuff for posters, etc. than word or PowerPoint were at the time. Nowadays I’d just use word or maybe PowerPoint (if I’m using MS office for it).

I understand dropping support because it’s not that used anymore and word or PowerPoint can do similar things, but stopping people from being able to use it or open existing documents is crazy. If you’re on office 365 and don’t convert your files before MS shuts down publisher you simply won’t be able to open your old publisher documents with the office suite you pay for.

You could use rclone with any service it supports as encrypted cloud storage by using its crypt feature. More technical to set up though than just installing an app.

Nowadays I see them mostly used by creators for sponsor or product links, probably because it lets them track how many people click on it and when

The basic steps are:

1. Register a domain of your choice
2. Select who you are setting up your email with (plenty of different providers, Zoho has a basic free plan that would be suitable for a single domain and only a few users at most; Google, outlook etc. also sell services for custom domains)
3. Configure the DNS records for your domain to whatever your chosen email provider says (MX records to point to the mail server and some records for DMARC & DKIM to prevent your email being spoofed)
4. Test it all works and start using it

I’m not going to write a full tutorial so if it sounds interesting I suggest you do more research. The email hosting is typically focused at businesses as they are most likely to be wanting to host email on a custom domain.

Arch is good for tinkering with to make it your own, but can sometimes require tinkering to do things other distros can do straight away, e.g. adding udev rules to use certain devices or setting up zeroconf to be able to discover printers on the network automatically

If you want to be able to roll back changes easily you could set up your root and home partitions as btrfs subvolumes and use snapper to take snapshots, which can be combined with pacman hooks to automatically take snapshots when updating/installing software and can even be set up to allow booting into the snapshots which could be useful if you break your system

Currys

*Curries unless you’re talking about the electronics retailer

those Indian takeaways… tandori?

If you’re just referring to the restaurants, I’d just call one of those restaurants an Indian (as in the cuisine) or maybe a curry house. Tandoori, Balti, etc. all relate to styles of cooking and may be used in restaurant names, but if I was referring to restaurants that serve Indian style curries in general, I would just call it an Indian.

Yeah, I think this is likely what happened, will be interesting to see what the investigation finds. I’m surprised there isn’t any sort of backup power for the voice recorder, it’s there to help investigate incidents, those 4 minutes would have contained a lot of vital insight into what was going on.

Runways can be used from either direction, usually they try to land with a headwind if there is significant wind I think. I think the localizer antenna can be at both ends of the runway if both directions have ILS approaches, but I’m not an expert. The concrete mound for the antenna is getting a lot of focus because it made a runway excursion so much worse.

It seems to me like they may have decided to make the landing then due to losing altitude and thinking they wouldn’t be able to climb again, but hopefully the investigation can figure out what probably happened.

Could you do a side-by-side image of the prints from the old nozzle and the ObXidian? Just interested in seeing the difference

Fair enough, I agree the situation is mildly infuriating, whatever the reason you wanted it. A lot of restaurant/pub chains over here will throw out extra food if they prepped too much, rather than letting staff take it, probably because they don’t want people creating waste on purpose but also don’t want to spend the minimal effort required to stop people abusing the system if they allowed people to take excess food home. The distrust of low paid workers leads to most stores being unable to deal with special requests unless you are speaking to the manager and I don’t know where I’m going with this…

If it’s so much effort to try and get fat trimmings from butchers, why not just buy a block of lard from the supermarket?

High discharge 18650s can provide 20-30 amps, doubt the lamp needs that much current if it’s powered off older battery tech

That’s fair

If you wanted to try to make your original rubber band idea work, you could try moving the central dart up slightly so that the rubber band forms a triangle shape and adjust the contact points between the rubber band and the darts to be at each corner of that triangle
