Its possible, like I said the signature may be behind that grass - but it is just too bad it is not credited regardless. If you were the photographer, you would think you would look for the signature/source of the art you are photographing to credit it.

When you have a new PC, put it on the old one too. You could run a Jellyfin server off it it or use it as a NAS device or something.

Fascinating. I think this may be a photoshopped image though. That fox art was made by an artist named “stewy”, but I have not seen a picture of it on this short wall.

How do I know this? Because I adapted my own profile picture here from the original source years ago, long before 2018.

It’s sad to see that Matthew here does not seem to be crediting the original creator of the art in their article. I expect if this is real, the artists signature should be right there behind that grass, or was otherwise removed.

I will, I am interested in checking out how to build widgets too, so I may see about making my own.

Well that’s not too bad honestly, so long as you know where you are to begin with. Thanks for testing!

Interesting, I haven’t heard of this. Thank you!

I’ll take a look, thank you!

I have not, but I saw someone recommending something similar as well, I’ll have to read up. Thanks!

Nice to see they took it under consideration for the future though! Thanks!

Interesting nonetheless, thanks!

Yes, I have edited my post to reflect that.

I would not be able to use the browser for use cases in which I am in the woods, wanting to look at the maps for the purpose of mapping out trails etc. It would also be handy for typical internet outage situations etc.

Is that a starship prompt? How do you style that divider above the prompt that way? It looks really good.

edit: I’ve read up a bunch on starship and now understand, very nice.

Yes, and this should mean financially supporting it. Just using it does not equate to supporting, and usually telling windows friends that you use arch btw and so should they does not equate either.

Perhaps consider a SOCKS5 reverse proxy. If done over SSH, the client systems networking would act as though they are on the server itself, traffic would be secure, and it would walk around most firewall rules that probably exist.

Using key based authentication would also make it such that it is more secure and easier for the researchers to log in - they wouldn’t even have to remember a password, they would just need some SSH client/configs.

Specifically, read up on “bastion hosts”.

I like the French Girls, and I like Scandinavian Girls, I like them tall Girls, I like them short Girls, I like them brown haired Girls, I like them Blonde haired Girls…

This kid is going to have a career.

Make good connections with people you trust internationally. If it really comes down to it, between friends, people who care could work together to set up SOCKS5 tunnels or some such to walk around it pretty cleanly, but you would really have to trust whoever you give credentials to since they would be using your internet connection for whatever. Could also straight up just install the OpenVPN server for this.

Once or twice I have opened a tunnel to friends on one of my servers through a bastion host - any outgoing traffic from the server goes through my own VPN, so it wouldn’t matter if they couldn’t access a VPN in their country.

For anyone who doesn’t care to learn, which in my experience is the vast majority of all people, not much can be done. Even the people I meet who say they do feel that they care deeply mainly just like to be loud about that, but never actually put in the work to learn how to do something as simple as use ssh -D, let alone learn how a proxy actually functions.

I suppose the best those in the know can do is to make it clear that they do know. Should friends actually begin to care, then they will know who to go to for possible solutions.

It was called “Event Calendar”. It was partially broken as the Dev neglected to update it with changes for the google api for calendar sync there, but the weather info and everything else worked great. Noticed that it is not compatible with plasma 6 since updating so I’m on the lookout for an alternative.

Ah, well - there really aren’t many details. The terminal emulator is tilix and the theme is just Breeze-Dark with the Gruvbox-Plus-Dark icon pack. Codium is using the Gruvbox-Dark-Hard color theme extension, and for discord (not shown) I wrote a bunch of custom CSS which is getting injected by BetterDiscord. The panel with the fox is a picture album widget which just points to a PNG of the fox that I designed and vectored. The browser is Vivaldi with a custom theme and layout I also made.

Good question - it’s because I’m running Debian 12!

Debian 13 has officially released today though, so once I run a distribution upgrade then I will get access to all that awesome new stuff.
