Its a trick one. Traditional DNS runs over port 53/udp and fails over to 53/tcp for large queries/results. That's easy to deal with on a packet filter firewall. Then in the name of ... something, something, security ..

Pipe it into lnav eg: journalctl -b | lnav or use -f instead of -b for follow instead of everything since boot. Now you have a colourised journal and the power of lnav.

Assuming the translation is reasonably decent - the word "ritual" is doing some heavy lifting. Why on earth is this here? Are we going to dive in on the Bible, Torah and Quran too? No, of course not. This is wankery of the first

"I think it's pretty clear that plants have agency" Why (and define agency)? Plants worry about stimuli such as light and water and not what is on BBC2.

Not a hater at all. I only expound my view from my experience. Accusing me of hate is a bit extreme. I have 20 employees. Cultural? Really?

Nextcloud with a few addons - all open source - gets you feature parity with all of that lot. NC itself gets you file sync and webdav etc. An add on gets you the webby version of LibreOffice. You can bolt on AI addons to classify and tag

... invent is the word you seem to have missed out. Hallucinations present rather than hide. A person will misspell a word or put in some sort of rubbish. In my experience people very rarely miss out a word completely unless they think it

Not so insane as it turns out - P is using the language of LLMs because english is a second language for them. Perhaps you will not take umbrage when I point out that you use full stops (periods) but not bother with twitching a finger towar

Perhaps the desert will repent its desertness and accept that sand, minimal water and a massive diurnal temperature range will somehow become amical towards good old Plane trees. OK, let's go full mad world: a vast web of PV for power.

"arbitrarily" is doing some heavy lifting! I'm not sure that two concurrent harmonious answers constitutes a "fixed" coin or a diagnosis of a fixed coin. This scheme will be rubbish with a one sided coin ie the limi

"Everybody disables SELinux" That implies you are probably using a RH jobbie. With no working whatsover, I assert that many more Linux desktops will be rocking apparmor or no kernel security module. Oh and no I don't disable
