try the pulling CMOS battery thing (you also need to disconnect power btw), if it doesn’t work there should be a CMOS RESET jumper on your motherboard, try shorting that.

tbh i prefer white on grey or red on yellow tho, white on black is kinda hard to look at for long. black on white is good but many programs these days output very bright coloured text, almost impossible to read on white bg.

iirc black on white is also the default on xterm

Its name is a play on the North German greeting Moin (from Wikipedia)

TIL!

i like moinmoin and dokuwiki, mediawiki always felt too complex.

it seems like movim is the most discord-ish xmpp client

they’re probably disconnected from internet, most likely misconfigured kms server or smth

for some reason, all these devices i see around these days seem to run android (one of 5/6/7/8 based on the exposed ui) or win10… haven’t seen any linux desktop-ish thing here

lol no, these smart watches are powerful as older smartphones, their stock os is already android/linux based.

well yeah, it surely is. win10 iot ltsc itself is defo getting support till 2032, but massgrave’s hwid/tsforge may get blocked at some point, though most people highly doubt that since m$ doesn’t really care at this point. (heck, the massgrave repos are hosted on m$ owned github) in addition to that, massgrave’s hwid mode generates an hwid on microsoft’s servers just like genuine windows licenses, so i’m pretty sure it’ll remain working, even if the method to generate hwid gets blocked somehow…

i do believe switching to a gnu/linux distro is a much better choice, but this is also an option if your relatives really prefer using windows or need to.

i would do vnc through tailscale or reverse ssh

massgrave.dev

i’d rather spend time actually learning and doing things instead of being an LLM slopper lol

as a student, this is much more interesting than studying

devuan is a solid distro that just works, not sure what’s your problem with that

if you have the storage, just dump the whole drive. you can then boot that windows installation again, or even use it on a vm under linux.

it’s generally a good idea to not have your home folder accessible to windows programs running under wine. other than that, i don’t see the need for an antivirus. keep your system updated, and use virustotal for the occasional suspicious file

last commit 3yrs ago… seems unmaintained

seems like they had a decent name ‘revolt’ but got some cease and desist and didn’t resist and decided to switch.

has anyone tried their iOS client? from their description it seems like it’s less mature than the android version, kinda concerning as my friend group has some iphone users.

could you recommend a good xmpp setup? i heard good things about snikket, maybe something else too?
