I am more worried about 13

It’s free until you start wasting money on hosting and domains, for websites that no one will ever visit.

I don’t want to know how much I would be paying, if I didn’t have a home server with fiber internet.

I just wanted to show how Docker can be abused for privilege escalation, when it’s not properly configured

docker run --rm -it --privileged --pid=host debian:12 nsenter -a -t1 "$(which bash)"

If your user is in the docker group, and you are not running rootless Docker, this command opens a bash shell as root.

How it works:

• docker run --rm -it creates a temporary container and attaches it to the running terminal
• --privileged disables some of the container’s protections
• --pid=host attaches the container to the host’s PID namespace, allowing it to access all running processes
• debian:12 uses the Debian 12 image
• nsenter -a -t1 enters all the namespaces of the process with PID 1, which is the host’s init since we use --pid=host
• "$(which bash)" finds the path of the host’s bash and runs it inside the namespaces (plain bash may not work on NixOS hosts)

I have managed to get to locked out of my own Nextcloud. It was encrypted, and I didn’t know that I had to keep a backup of the keys in its config files. I only had a RAID1 for the user data.

I had to remove my PPE to hear it

No, there is only one definition for open source:

Keep in mind that a lot of webpages block traffic from datacenters, as they are trying to protect themselves from AI scrappers. I recently had an issue with OpenAI making thousands of requests to one of my servers.

Huh? How could Linux solve an ACPI problem?

This doesn’t answer the Linux part of the question.

What does “licensing issue” means for the laptop itself? Is HEVC disabled at BIOS/firmware level, or it is just disabled at Windows driver level?

In the latter case, HEVC should work with Linux, as it uses generic Intel/AMD drivers, instead of specific Dell/HP ones.

Some people don’t know it, but public transit is not always an option. Examples:

• you work night shifts
• you live in countryside
• you have a baby

Wait until you realize you only need 3 of those pins.

Could this voluntary chat control be a weapon to kill encrypted messaging, through defamation?

If the non-encrypted messaging apps start promoting that they have implemented measures to protect children, could this be used to make people believe that other services support child abuse?

Did you bother to read the 3rd part of my previous comment?

If I understand correctly, those mirrors will reflect sun rays, that would otherwise be wasted across the universe, to earth.

So, you are fundamentally wrong. The very idea is to reflect sunlight that wouldn’t otherwise hit the planer. This WILL add extra energy to the planet.

Even if they used sunlight that bounces off earth, they would still cause issues, just a little less serious. This is because they would be trapping energy that tries to leave the earth.

Are there enough non-Linux Lemmy users to form a basketball team?

something different that sets off the blinking show

It would amazing if we had an app that controls the shoe lights. I love needing an app for every single product/device I buy.

However, I can think of some use cases for “smart” RGB shoes

1. Color sync for dancers
2. Blinkers for scooters/bicycles

There is an easy solution to that. The internal pad, where the toe sits on, could be removable. This way, both the battery can be replaceable, and the electronics board.

Another idea, could be to implement wireless charging for the lights, since it’s not easy to fit a charging port on a shoe.
