I don't know if it should be a bad thing. Inside the tar archive the configs were already organized into their respective dirctories, this way with --preserve-permissions --overwrite I could just quickly add the desired versions of configs.
Some examples of contents:
-rw-r--r-- root/root 2201 2026-02-18 08:08 etc/pam.d/sshd
-rw-r--r-- root/root 399 2026-02-17 23:22 etc/pam.d/sudo
-rw-r--r-- root/root 2208 2026-02-18 09:13 etc/sysctl.conf
drwx------ user/user 0 2026-02-17 23:28 home/user/.ssh/
-rw------- user/user 205 2026-02-17 23:29 home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys
drwxrwxr-x user/user 0 2026-02-18 16:30 home/user/.vnc/
-rw-rw-r-- user/user 85 2026-02-18 15:32 home/user/.vnc/tigervnc.conf
-rw-r--r-- root/root 3553 2026-02-18 08:04 etc/ssh/sshd_config
Keeps permissions, keeps ownership, puts things where they belong (or copies from where they were), and you end up with a single file that can be stored on whatever filesystem.
I accidentally untarred archive intended to be extracted in root directory, which among others included some files for /etc directory.
I went on to rm -rv ~/etc, but I quickly typed rm -rv /etc instead, and hit enter, while using a root account.
Catbox appears broken, so Imgur again.
Eh, the market will adapt.
I've been looking at components on AliExpress. Even now, there's lots of X99-based motherboards with LGA2011-3 sockets that can take both regular DDR4 (with some limitations) and ECC DDR4.
But the descriptions are quite hard to understand, and they are apparently quite picky about which RAM will work with them.
I could get a combo of one of those motherboards with 2 Intel Xeon E5-2680 V4 CPUs (2.4GHz, 3.3GHz turbo, 28 cores, 56 threads in total) (hey, a dual CPU motherboard) for €120. And it's got 8 RAM slots. So 32GB just with cheap 4GB sticks.
Hey, that's still quite a strong one.
On some platforms it would be "unalived with a pew pew", and I am not joking. I've seen that and similar be used in serious contexts.
I am an idiot. I am a fucking idiot. The dumbest human, with the least powerful braincell.
That is not Africa...
Did you mean kV? I don't know if 40kHz is high enough, but I know at some point it doesn't even shock anymore, just burns. Hence you can take a screwdriver in your hand, and get it close to high frequency Tesla coil / slayer exciter circuit (not that I know the difference) and have it flow through you no problem, just if you touch the spark directly it burns.
You've just upset a couple of adult Zootopia fans.
My last 3 phones are just kind of pain software wise.
Moto G5s Plus - the Android 8 update (latest official) made it a slow horrible mess with frequent crashes and high battery drain. PixelExperience 11 fixed that.
Poco X3 Pro - told not to update to MIUI 13 due to instability. Many bugs I had to learn to work around. Left and right microphones reversed in software. Extreme power saving that doesn't even spare alarms.
Ulefone Armor 24 - UI often crashes (Quickstep) including navigation. In some cases Android version updates don't show up. The legend has it they sometimes provide updates after you e-mail them, stored on the Google Drive. Those updates do a factory reset, because of course they do. Alarm also has a chance of being killed, but lower than with MIUI. Charging with fast charger kills USB communication until reboot.
I don't do updates anymore. Check the experiences online, and it's all just new bugs, often pretty serious ones. So, if it somewhat works, and it isn't absolutely clear that the next update would certainly fix something important, just keep it as-is.
TWRP could at least give me some peace of mind. I could just back up everything.
Self checkout, makes more sense. In some places you have to scan the ticket to open a gate so that you can leave.
I can imagine it being nice for a tablet. They even have programs for calls and SMS if you have a cellular modem.
Wait what? I still remembered it as a recent console...
I feel like my brain is stuck. When I think of most powerful GPU, my brain's muscle memory replies with 1080 Ti.
Yeah, they overlap since I did whole hour (120 30-second codes). I didn't know specific time, so it's 2 pages, 3 hours, 42 minutes and 30 seconds.

And it always causes issues.
Anyway, I hope the main joke got spotted too.
Let's Encrypt now does IP certs: https://letsencrypt.org/2026/01/15/6day-and-ip-general-availability
Certbot doesn't seem to be up to the task yet, but lego works.
But I'll probably change it to some image host later, because I have no idea what I am doing.
Why does it not work... It embeds when creating the post.
Seems fine too, it's HTTPS after all, should work.
OK, seems that it's just the default LemmyUI that doesn't like it, which is strange for the number of pict-rs requests in access.log.
Also by the number of 429, 5r/s is probably too low. Was. Anyway...
OR, that's why there is the burst option. Right.
Do they have like, free time or something?
In high school it was also not rare that I'd say submit my homework at 02:30, get it graded at 03:00 and then we'd meet in a class on same day at 07:00.
Anyone getting sleep?
I am still triple checking when I see /dev/sda as a target drive in such utilities. I use NVMe, so nowadays that's probably a flash drive for me, but it still gives me adrenaline when I notice it.
