So I got #grimd running on #ubuntu to provide adblocking DNS, but I can't figure out how to tell my machine to use it. Help?

I decided to forgo a proper lunch and try the with instead. Here’s the deal: I performed just as well as I do with the but I’m still not used to the two extra back buttons. Ergonomically the is better, but this is better made, feels solid!

For a first to a KDA of 7.3 is good.

Nooooooooooooo!!!! My Armor-X Pro has been held up by customs. The wait continues.

The IBM 729 tape drive was an icon of computing in the early 1960s with its spinning tape reels. We finally fixed a malfunctioning drive at @ComputerHistory. Last week we tracked down a short. The drive still didn't work but until we found a bad relay. Now it works. 🧵

Writing is weird.

'Hey, you wanna hear about this thing that didn't happen?'
'To you, or-'
'To these people who don't exist. The whole thing's fake. Absolute bullshit top to bottom. Are you in or not?'

I do think ChatGPT does a great job at putting together a bunch of nice sounding words that are way off the mark or meaningless for a nuanced topic, so yes: it’s ready to run for office.

@pwinn I did notice that :) if you don't fight you lose and win the game at the same time.

I asked ChatGTP to write a text adventure in Commodore BASIC and it did this.

OK. Experimenting and trying to figure out the issue myself it isn’t the USB cable that is a problem. Movement of the headset cable causes the pad to restart.

I’ve had to create a support ticket for the Turtle Beach Recon controller. The thing keeps disconnecting sadly.

Please don'tt forget everyone in the UFoI or planning to be.. You have to post on your Terms of Service (rules) somewhere that you are in the UFoI and that the server adheres to its rules.

You are welcome to say this or put it wherever you want as long as it is clear to your users.

Basically make sure you include two things:

1) A reference to the fact that the instance is in the UFoI, with a link to the website: UFoI.org

2) A reference to the fact that it follows the Code of Ethics, preferably with a link to that: ufoi.org/docs/code-of-ethics

I just added this myself to QOTO, attached is a screenshot of the way I did it.

If anyone wants the html code to copy and paste into their ToS that I used it is here:

Finally if any of you new people in the thread want to use the profiles with verified profile links (the little green check mark next to links in bios) just reach out to me and I can show you how to set it up.

(PS not a hell thread, just taging people this is relevant to)

I got all 3 System76 Launch keyboards to review, and I’ve been using them for a couple of weeks. Stay tuned for a full review tomorrow!

And yeah, I’m using the super human hearing on the Turtle Beach controller. It does help!
