I hope he eventually dyes his hair the same color, too.

Either one of them. It would be weird either way.

• To exploit this across the internet or LAN, a miscreant needs to reach your CUPS service on UDP port 631. Hopefully none of you have that facing the public internet. The miscreant also has to wait for you to start a print job.
• If port 631 isn’t directly reachable, an attacker may be able to spoof zeroconf, mDNS, or DNS-SD advertisements to achieve exploitation on a LAN. Details of that path will be disclosed later, we’re promised.

So don’t expose 631 to the internet (why would you?) and know who’s on your network. Be careful printing things on an untrusted network.

It’s serious, but seems like a wonky attack vector for most.

Well, now I’m gonna. You can’t tell me what to do! /s

I think you mentioned that you were mapping gyro as right stick? Is there a reason you don’t use it as a mouse instead? The Steam version I think supports dual input, no?

I can give it a try at home, but I suspect there’s something else going on. When you use gyro, are you using it when you touch the right stick? Are you using it when you touch the right pad? How is it being activated?

Dev wouldn’t nuke your custom profile on purpose. There’s good reasons to implement a Steam Input API in their game, most notably because they can do certain things like automatic overlay switching, which further improves the experience for most people. Losing an older profile is sometimes an unintended side effect, and there’s nothing they can do about it.

And to be clear, an old config can look fine, but the internal structure may have changed with how the game/steam interprets it.

This most often happens to me where the devs create an official mapping later on that can do context-aware things in the game (i.e. using more than just Xinput).

It’s possible the config got changed as things updated. I have had that happen with old configs before.

You might need to rebuild your config or edit a similar one.

This “article” reads like a long-form cover letter for a job application. Thanks for enshittifying everything, Jagan, and using your bullshit “skills” to go for that cash grab before the bubble pops.

If this article wasn’t written by one of Jagan’s LLMs and was in fact written by a real person (and I would be shocked to find that it was), the author should feel bad and demand a refund on their education.

The response is wrong. AI isn’t recognizing people’s emotions, it’s inferring them. It’s not “smart” enough to recognize emotions, and we don’t need the dystopian nightmare of a computer thinking you’re malicious when you’re annoyed or being sarcastic.

Synergy has always been my go-to for a software KVM. It’s currently only $30, and it works great. I paid for a license probably a decade ago, and I’ve more than recouped my utility cost.

Spiral is Debian. Like Endeavor, it’s primarily a way to install Debian with a few sane defaults and graphical choosers to install other software. Otherwise, it’s just Debian.

Try it in a VM. I was surprised how fast it was even in that limited environment, and if not for the fact that I want/need a newer kernel, I might have chosen that one.

But otherwise, sounds like you’ve kind of already chosen.

The only time I haven’t been able to do something was with a VPN client that came as a self-executing tarball. Because it tries to mess with Network Manager on the fly, it doesn’t work correctly.

So there’s a handful of weird edge cases, but I agree that the majority can be solved with podman or distrobox.

You might look at Aurora or Bluefin, if Bazzite wasn’t your cup of tea. They’re more of a vanilla distro while being part of the Universal Blue family. They also have DX variants for devs, if that’s something you want.

I haven’t had trouble messing with configs on Bazzite, so I wonder what you need to tweak that isn’t possible on an immutable system.

Look into Spiral Linux if you want to go with Debian. I believe it includes several quality of life improvements while being mostly just an easy way to install Debian (kind of like how EndeavorOS is for Arch).

ETA: also, look at NixOS, since it might be the combination of stability and semi-mutability you’re looking for.

It’s not really random internet strangers’ place to judge someone’s parenting choices. We don’t know their overall parenting style, the personality of the child, what lessons they may be trying to teach, etc. The only thing we know for certain is that they want to use parental controls, perhaps to ensure they stay safe as they learn how to use the internet responsibly while also having a level of autonomy.

That’s not helicopter parenting, that’s just prudent.

Pretty sure it’s a 2.5" HDD.

Sounds pretty reasonable to me. Avoid sites like Fiver, though. Lots of AI bullshit pretending to be real art.

Even if it is minor (and like you, I don’t know whether it is or not), Nvidia opening their source, even if only little by little, is probably still a good thing.

That interesting. Well, at least you found something that works!
