@[email protected] sure sure, I’ll check it out

@[email protected] ooh fun, let’s play blame the messenger! great solution.

@[email protected] @[email protected] yes! I was just mentioning that in another response. love gemini, still need to setup a server. 🤩

@[email protected] @[email protected] that’s a great page. reminds me of a purposeful design choice from the Gemini protocol project; it’s all text for similar reasons.

@[email protected] that’s correct. it arrived rather recently, and firmware updates are required (easy, but requires Qualcomm’s app which runs on windows, so that’s a thing). As of today I’m working through some kernel debugging and setting up remote log capture for easier parsing during boot iterations. very fun!

@[email protected] use case for the lagg/bridge: the lagg(s) provides link failover for connection redundancy, and the bridge(s) offer transit for network connections to/from jails and virtual machines located on the host

use case for the host itself: it’s a development resource which allows me to run (and break/fix/iterate) code and infrastructure locally, prior to deployment in staging / load-test / production where things cannot be readily iterated in the same lackadaisical adhoc manner.

@[email protected] That’s an Intel X710-DA4 4-port NIC, which you’re quite correct about… 2x 10G lagg with a bridge on top, the other two ports are similarly lagg/bridged with one port disconnected during an optic swap.

@billy yep, anything involving windows is a detriment. I did have some amount of foresight to swap the stock nvme (ships with win11) for a clean one, which turned out to be important as there are some Qualcomm firmware upgrades which (presently, hopefully not for forever) require exe … so the stock drive will be reinstalled temporarily.

@[email protected] yep, that’s a fun mod! ooh the X280 was a great laptop, and is still a great laptop! somewhere around here is a X260 waiting for a panel upgrade, will give your tutorial a shot before disassembly occurs. 👍🏻

@[email protected] fwupdmgr is one of the better examples of a distro-agnostic application. every time that I use it there’s an urge for cloning and mirroring the firmware repos in an effort to port its functionality to freebsd.

@[email protected] @[email protected] good question! still looking for a PCB schematic, though getting to a full boot command line would offer a step towards running hardware topo system calls necessary for enumeration.

for better or worse, the text screams by until the panic stops, so I’ll be connecting its HDMI out to a PiKVM, which will facilitate streaming log capture; improving access to all that debugging data. typically my workflow for arm64 + freebsd involves either using a SoL terminal and/or RS232 / TTL output capture, but those are not available for a laptop… hmmm hmm.

@[email protected] thanks, it’s the higher spec OLED option

@[email protected] indeed, which is why I run those from an isolated jail. it’s a slight amount of cli commands but otherwise nicely secured.

@[email protected] Brave is awesome overall, and at present their sync chain method has been nearly impervious to split-brain conflicts across multiple devices.

Otter browser is ultra minimalist approach, has almost no chrome or aesthetics to alter, which is a benefit and detriment depending on use case. I like using it for single window admin apps (iKVM, iDRAC, PiKVM, etc) due to the lower resource load.

@[email protected] hello bot 👀, how goes it?

@JackbyDev Why would that be a question at all? Buy a domain name and take care of your dns records.

that’s an odd way to say that you don’t own any domains. that’s step one, but does it even need to be said?
