I agree. It is easy these days provided that your device is supported. I updated my ThinkPad nvme SSD (my model is from 2018) using the fwupdmgr command[0], which fetches supported firmware data from LVFS[1]. It improved temperature control

These scams are so common on both Facebook[1] and Twitter[2]. I have a large following on both, copying my logo and header image. Then pretend to be me and ask for bitcoin donations. I asked Twitter and FB to verify my account, but they ref

rsnapshot[1] is what I used on FreeBSD with a snapshot. It is like a well-tested version of the author's rsync and ssh blog post. I have a blog post here[2] describing my setup. It saved my bacon multiple times. Also, rsnapshot works i

I had a similar experience with Thinkpad X1E 2nd gen (I tried both Arch and now on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, soon to jump to 22.04 LTS pre-release). It throttles heavily despite being certified as a Linux device. Before that, I used Dell precision

Yes, imagine if this blocklist becomes mainstream and used by major other adblockers or extensions? Then, there is no central place where one man's project can ask to remove my domain, and it will vanish. I often read on HN how much th
