If you’re on a scam binge, the NYT (yes, I know) Daily podcast did a piece on how drug cartels are scamming people using the sale of property

I like the Kingdom Rush tower defense series of games
I’ll also toss Serious Sam 3 BFE in the ring, it lets you choose which levels you’d like to play without having to progress through the normal campaign mode. So if you have a few minutes, and feel the need for some stress relief it works well
Also you can export your client list, which is helpful when migrating from machine to machine
I’m also on Gnome, but I use Konsole for the ‘Copy Input to Tab’ or ‘Copy Input to All Tabs in window.’ In my use case scenario, it’s super helpful to be able to type or paste a cmd once, and have it populate multiple tabs, or specific tabs in multiple windows. It does take a little tweaking to get it to obey the dark theme settings, but once upon a time I actually created a custom dark theme, just so I could use Konsole on Gnome. Things are much easier these days 😁 I’ll have to check out Tilix, I haven’t heard of it before, but that may be b/c I literally work by myself in the dank dark basement of the building…I don’t think the cleaning crew even knows that I’m down here
The writing + Lenny Henry’s delivery was on point. I still crack up re-watching all of those insults he delivers to his kitchen staff and the waiters
Favourite quote was Everton reading the newspaper headline, after Gareth was caught on film berrating his staff
“BBC Bosses Ban Bollicking Blackstock!” 🤣🤣🤣
Off the top of my head, you could write a small function and place it in your shell’s start up file (ex: .bashrc). The function would check to see if htop is running under your userid, and if not start it…although depending on the timing you may end up with htop in both sessions.
A second option would be to create a bookmark and set the location to something such as ssh://youruserid@localhost “htop” <- I’ve not tested this, I’ve only bookmarks to ssh into remote systems
It may just be easier to associate the command you need to a 2 or 3 letter alias and simply type that in
Definitely! For electronics, Eneloop batteries are worth every penny. I think I have ~10 AA and AAA, and I haven’t bought disposable batteries in years. I try to make sure I have 4 of each available at all times so I don’t have to wait for them to recharge. I’ve tried cheaper (Amazon) batteries, and they fail much more quickly, and sometimes swell to the point where I have a hard time removing them.
Some people say IKEA’s batteries are just rebranded Eneloops, but I haven’t had a chance to try them
It’s been digitized by these guys. They’re just waiting until tomorrow (Oct 10) to show it at the festival
Here’s a google English translated version
The cat is startled that his can opener/food dispenser is talking
Awesome! Thanks for the update, and Happy Friday!
Thank you for this!

Please keep in mind, this is using a sledgehammer to swat a gnat. YMMV
That voice will forever haunt our dreams 😂
I defintely will!
I’m going to have to give the hair dryer trick a shot, I’d already migrated to a 1821, so I’m not sure if it’ll boot diskless…but getting a busted NAS to boot with a hairdryer, is too hilarious not to attempt 😂
I had no idea that existed, that’s a slick piece of HW. If I pull the case off I may be able to shoehorn it into the spot where the old mobo was. I could also just rip out the Synology backplane, add a sata expansion card, and make it a general purpose NAS, just with fewer disks.
My hope was to re-use the case to backup ~30TB of RAIDed storage. This is an excellent find, thank you!
I was incorrect about the model#, it’s actually an 1815. I’d had it apart for so long I’d forgotten. I was going to try the resistor ‘fix,’ but too many people were reporting erractic behaviour after they’d done the same. I may re-purpose the case for something else as it seems only something like a Raspberry pi or one of the Adafruit boards would fit
I think you’re right, it measures 200x145x15mm with 2 PCIe slots at right angles connecting to the backplane. I’d had it taken apart for so long I hadn’t considered the height. I was also wrong about the model# it was an 1815, now that I look at the mobo. I guess I could re-purpose the case for something else. I appreciate the reply, looks like I’m going hunting for a similar form factor case this weekend
I think this is what I used last time! Thank you!!! The UI seems very familar, and IIRC this is how I figured out the GTX1060 could fit in the Thermaltake Snow. I can’t believe I forgot pcpartpicker
I feel bad for both parties in these scams. The scammer, from what I’ve read, is duped into the job and threatened with violence and death (along with their family) to continue the work. On the other side are the poor kids who risk a level of psychological damage that may take years to repair, if it can be repaired…all for a few bucks
