  • Not American, and couldn’t find a non-partisan resource, but here goes:

    Our voter hotline exists to answer questions that cannot be easily answered online. The hotline is monitored by DNC employees who are prepared to field questions pertaining to felon disenfranchisement, voter purging, poll worker misconduct, voter machines, and accessibility. The hotline regularly operates on weekdays from 9:00am-6:00pm EST/EDT, and expands to both weekdays and weekends from 9:00am-9:00pm EST/EDT starting in October during election years.

  • I would love to see a write up on what was done. PostgeSQL is my favourite system and I would like to know more.

  • About a million years ago, back in 2007/2008 that is, there was this small company called Hexago that did R&D in IPv6 networking, they were behind the Frenet6 project and created the networking stack and the TSP client that would let you tunnel a /56 IPv6 network over a dynamic IPv4 connection.

    One the projects was a tiny hardware router, I honestly forget who made it, but Hexago would buy them, then we would flash each one with WRT+TSP client custom image, the idea was you plug this in your network and you have IPv6 connection in your network without doing any magic configuration.

    It worked well until we lost finding.

    So yeah, OpenWRT is old and not just for Linksys routers :)

  • Try 35 years

    Somehow I’m a “Unix Wizard” because I know how to read log files?

    Oh, and now I’m DevOps because I pythoned my way out of wet paper bag.

  • Take a look at openonserve

  • The issue is that this punishment establishes two classes of people. Those who can lose their citizenship because they can theoretically get another somewhere and those who cant.

    Imagine if this child was born in the UK to British parents and has no other possible nationalities, what then?

    When a country grants citizenship they should not be allowed to revoke it unless it was obtained fraudulently. Revoking citizenship should never be used as a form of punishment.

  • Jesus save us from your followers.

  • DHCP?

    Your old host registered an fqdn and did mnt remove it, then the new host registered the same ip to a different fqdn.

    It happens

    I have no idea what you are using for dhcp/dns but start by looking there

  • I’ve been daily driving boring Debian since RedHat Linux 8 came out 20 years ago now. I tried switching to openSUSE and just didn’t see the point after a bit, so I switched back. The only time I’m not on Debian is when I’m playing with FreeBSD or NetBSD.

    Same for DE, I’ve been using XFCE for so long that I don’t get the fuss about pretty environments.

    Not hopping does not mean you’re missing out, boring can be good. Things are stable and stay out of the way of you doing actual work.

    There is a quote out there somewhere about how customizing FVWM can become an obsession.

    There is nothing wrong about hopping, as long as you are doing it for hobbyist reasons, at the end of day the only difference is the package manager and the DE.

    Good luck

  • I had the same issue, create a swap file and use it

    2G should be enough

  • Looks good at first glance.

    I am testing login with 2FA but it doesn’t appear to be supported yet.

    I’ll keep browsing anonymously for now.

  • RedHat originally had one distribution called “RedHat Linux”, not to be confused with RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).

    RedHat Linux was free, you can buy support if you want, and there was also RedHat Advanced Server, which was a paid subscription.

    In 2002, the company rebranded Advanced Sever to RHEL and discontinued RedHat Linux, pissing off a lot of people off.

    This started people working on multiple binary compatible distributions, the one that dominated the market was CentOS.

    20 years later, the cycle is repeating.

  • Remember why CentOS (and WhiteBox) came to exist?

    This is not the first time RedHat pulls that stunt, this is the reason I stick to pure Debian.

    I like SUSE, but I’m hesitant of relying on another commercial entity although business requires it.

    For now Deb and Ian are the safest bet and my daily driver since 2002, they have not let me down.

  • I’ve been using it for a couple of days now. Very nice so far

    Keep up the great work.

    Creating a local VMwae software mirror using aac-lib/vsm

    I needed to have a local mirror of VMware software, and logging into my.vmware.com, downloading, and then uploading was becoming tiresome.

    I tried the VMware software solution, but:

    1. Windows only
    2. Borke all the time.

    Then I found this:

    Texiwill/aac-lib

    It needs several packages pre-installed, but it mostly takes care of everything, as of now, it is running on a CentOS machine, the following script is running via cron daily, you will need to git pull acc-lib first.

     undefined
        
    #!/bin/bash
    #
    _USERNAME="my vmware account"
    _PASSWORD="my vmware password"
    
    cd ~aac-lib/vms
    git pull
    
    for _REPO in $(cat ~/vmware-repos.txt) 
    do
      ./vsm.sh -c -y -nc --symlink --fav $_REPO -u $_USERNAME -p $_PASSWORD
    done
      
    
      

    Content of the vmware-repos.txt are similar to this, if you run vsm.sh you will understand the naming convention

    Cannot login to custom instances

    Hi

    App looks good.

    Browsing anonymously for now.

    Trying to login to lemmy.ca but the submit button does nothing

    Not sure what info is needed

    Nota: I use 2FA for login if that’s relevant

  • I’m using lemmy.ca right now.

    Maybe you’re blocked for some reason.

  • vmware @lemmy.ca
    nixx @lemmy.ca

    This is just a placeholder

    Hi,

    ExVMW here, just creating this as a place holder in case it is needed

    I will be happy to hand it over to any mods from r/vmware
