Very useful, even for someone who has been using Linux for many years. Sometimes you just forget or need that tool you rarely use. tldr can be much handier than parsing a man page when you’re in a pinch.

I use the tealdeer implementation, but any is fine really.

Never knew about prelockd, seems like a pretty neat and useful idea, thanks!

I’m either being very dense right now, or I don’t have that o.I How is it called, or where is it located next to?

Wait what? Was there ever an option to open a private tab as a normal tab?? 🤔 I’d love to have that, but thought it would never get added. What version were you on before (and in which one are you now)?

Adding onto what’s already on the thread, you can try look at the newer Element Call, which is an implementation of Matrix’s native calls.
I’ve been using it a bit recently, since Jitsi seems to have stopped working reliably for me (to be frank, I’ve not put much effort into debugging it yet). It works well, but it’s still early stage, lacking some features Jitsi has. If that one works for you, I recommend you stick to it.

I still don’t think it’s there, but development hss been fast, so a lot has changed and improved in the last couple of months.

Not exactly. Matrix 2.0 relates to the protocol (Matrix) version, which has its major number incremented due to a bunch of, well, major changes/updates to make it much better. OIDC, sliding sync and native calls are some of the new things that comprise the 2.0 update.

The server implementations are somewhat orthogonal to this. Synapse (the original Python server) is still the main implementation, and is Matrix 2.0 ready.

conduwuit is a fork of the less “energic” conduit.rs software, and both are maintained by the community, not by the Element people, like Dendrite.

Agree, but mad props to the Gentoo people too. Nice community and incredible wiki as well.

Yeah withdraw cash from an ATM and use it. The system sucks, but it’s not trivial to change for a myriad of reasons.

There’s no real way to do it. Unless you know someone who can trade you XMR<->cash and you somehow convince your employer to (break laws and) pay you in those forms, you can’t avoid it. At some point, you’ll have to get money on a real bank account, which requires real information to open.

As far as I know, modern cards don’t just send your CC info to terminals, they do some form of a cryptographic handshake (probably a pubkey signature or similar) which gets confirmed by your bank. I believe Caveman was talking more about online shopping, where you have to enter your card number, expiration date, CVC and often your name too.

That’s why I love virtual card systems like MB NET. You just generate a random virtual card for every purchase (or a recurring one for each subscription vendor, for example) and move on. Your bank still knows what you’re doing, of course, but vendors can’t correlate anything. Preventing your bank from knowing where you’re spending your money is much harder, for very practical reasons: fraud detection. The only real way is to use a secure crypto coin like Monero, but very few places accept it and you still have to deal with volatility.

Yeah, I am lucky to live in such a country and it’s amazing. The state and municipality each subsidised part of the purchase, so I ended up paying 300 something euros to install 3.5 kW of panels. My electricity bills are almost non existant during summer and also cheaper during winter. To make it even better, anytime I’m not using the produced electricity, it gets sold to the grid, even if pretty cheap, rebating on my next billing cycle.

This is a good suggestion. Docker is more mature and has more resources, so it’s better to learn the ins and outs of containers. After getting comfortable with it, you can move to Podman and have a much better time tackling its peculiarities regarding permissions and rootless.

I used Docker for years and only recently decided to give Podman a try, porting my Lemmy instance to it.

Oh what, 5€ per withdrawal? That’s crazy!

Interesting. Sounds like it can be convenient.

Over here, there’s pretty much a terminal at every not-even-necessarily-super market and often people will check their balance or withdraw cash from them before/after shopping.

That’s very alien to me wow, never heard of such thing. So you essentially pay more with card and get the change in cash.
Is that usually “imposed” by the shop or is something you ask for?

Right, but what is “cash back”?

I don’t know what it is either :/
I’m also not exactly understanding how it can save people from sparse ATMs.
