How are you getting change?

What good is cash gonna do if the networked cash register doesn’t open anymore?

Oh, you actually believed that story? Whoops. Sorry! It was actually me who ate your Cheetos and downed your Vodka.

It doesn’t. It will require you to reboot for every god-damned line of code that has changed.

Na, nothing. Did an update today. Nothing bad happened at al, Because why would it?

Many of the machines in question will have safe mode walled off for security reasons anyway.

Back in the day, when I installed my very first Linux OS, I had a wireless stick from Netgear. Wireless Drivers back then were abysmal, so I had to compile them from source (literally 15 mins after seeing a TTY for the first time). After I had found out how build-dependencies and such worked somehow and ./configure completed successfully for the first time, the script ended with the epic line:

configure done. Now type 'make' and pray

The enemy of my enemy, eh?

glibc 2.36 is all you’ll ever need, okay? Go away with those goddamn backports!

I don’t. So… uhm… you’re wrong I guess.

You know how Linux killed the chef?

With a fork bomb

We hate your music we hate you, too we got our resons, for what we do

you cannot hide, you stupid fucks We really think your music sucks

We hate - Sworn Enemy

Love how the tone alternates between rage and hate on the one side and this rational description on the other

When I hear that lonesome whistle

I also know that I cannot tell the difference between two IPv6 addresses because they all merge into an indiscernible blur inside my head

But the minefields are a banger scnr

Dmarc/dkim/SPF/certs. Fun times!

I got a mall server running, yet it’s almost more as an inbox.

BEFORE you mess with your VNC, it is extremely important to have a backup connection. So either you have the ability to connect your pi to a monitor and a keyboard locally, or you really, really should setup SSH before you mess with your VNC server.

Use SSH with a Certificate, described here: https://raspberrypi-guide.github.io/networking/connecting-via-ssh (“passwordless”) This guide doesn’t show how to set up SSH, but how to install a key in a more detailed way: https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-ssh-keys/

The good thing: Once you got this working, you’re basically done. Just ditch VNC and go straight to SSH from now on. It’s more secure and has better performance usually.

Yet, if you like your VNC and want to continue using it, you first connect via SSH do not do this while using a VNC connection! Now, first, you do all this: https://www.tomshardware.com/how-to/install-vnc-raspberry-pi-os then you do a

sudo update-alternatives --list vncserver
sudo update-alternatives --list vncserver-x11

you should see tightvnc listed there. Don’t freak out if one of the two returns an error that the application was not found. That’s okay. Not all versions of Raspbian used the same application name in the past, so I listed them both. As long as one of them works, you’re fine.

Then, you do a

sudo update-alternatives --config vncserver
sudo update-alternatives --config vncserver-x11

and change it to tightvnc. now you can stop your running VNC:

sudo vncserver-x11 -service -stop && sudo vncserver -service -stop
sudo vncserver-x11 -service -start && sudo vncserver -service -start

Once you did that, connect to tightvnc as described in the article. If this works, do sudo apt uninstall realvnc

You should now be able to connect via VNC without weird account bullshit.

And once you have found your specific collection of plugins that happen not to put the exact features you need behind a paywall but others, you ain’t touching those either.

But how will people know your container is official besides all the hints on your website?

Yes and no. It’s a circular relationship. The proverb is known to have already existed in Ancient Greece. The pantheon (the version that existed before Xerxes torched the place) was apparently inhabited by tons of owls, especially it’s roof construction. Since the pantheon was a temple to Athena, people assumed Athena held Owls holy and the owl became linked to Athena, and since Athena was the goddess of wisdom, Owls became a symbol of wisdom. Since the city and her patron goddess are related by name, Athens is linked to owls as well.

But for the meaning: It’s to be taken literally. There were many owls in Athens, so they’d not exactly need any more.
