Perhaps there was an easier lighter-weight way of doing this?

Yeah, SSH tunneling. What I would do (and have done in the past) is something like:

ssh -L 8080:192.168.0.1:80 myserver

That will forward port 8080 on your host to port 80 on 192.168.0.1, so you can access your router's web UI with http://localhost:8080/ in your own web browser.

You can also setup full tunneling with SSH, but that requires messing around with SOCKS and I usually can't be bothered.

You can always install activate-linux, and it even works on Windows.

For those wondering, when using the biggest QR code with the maximum error correction (10,208 bytes), 1,454,942 QR codes is slightly less than 14GiB, which should be more than enough for a Windows ISO.

My math: (1454942×10208)÷1024÷1024÷1024≈13.83

Edit: Damn another guy beat me to it, now I wonder how I'm so far off.

I was basically thinking of a simple browser app for Android that automatically makes its requests over a Wireguard tunnel.

I don't publicly expose a lot of my self hosted services, most are only available over a Wireguard VPN. I don't think my family could work that out, and I also don't usually keep it enabled all the time on my phone.

It doesn't have to be a fully featured browser, I'm fine for it to be the built in Android WebView or something, and just have a configurable menu of pages that can be easily visited.

I have some Android app experience from Uni, so I could maybe help out somewhat, but I feel I'm going to be in way over my head to do this alone. I'm happy to donate a little anyway.

AFAIK fast startup only affects shutdown, clicking restart will always do a full reboot. Shift clicking shutdown will do a full shutdown like you said, but shift clicking restart will start recovery mode.

(with type covered as a bonus)

Relevant fact: Most standard non-letter batteries are named after their physical size, for example a CR2032 is 20mm diameter x 3.2mm height; or not a button battery, but an 18650 is 18mm diameter x 65.0mm height.

I'm probably jumping to conclusions, but Nvidia?

I don't believe so, I think OP just misremembered 1970.

The 1704067200 is the 2024 new year, in seconds from 1970 (normal Unix time).

Woah peertube federating with lemmy is actually really cool!

This is more of a public note to self, but if anyone else had screwed up fonts, default cursors, and missing minimise/maximise buttons in flatpaks on KDE Wayland, put this in your /usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal/kde-portals.conf:

[preferred]
default=kde;gtk;
org.freedesktop.impl.portal.Settings=kde;gtk;

Then restart xdg-desktop-portal.

Apparently this will be fixed in 5.27.9 releasing on the 24th anyway, but I've tried so many different 'solutions' and this had been annoying me for weeks.

I'm not usually one to share links, but my old school's Headmaster (Dr Paul Browning at St Paul's School) is in a little bit of trouble with the Anglican church for compensating child sexual abuse victims from incidents in the 80s/90s. As he started in 2008, those victims technically weren't his problem but he refunded their tuition fees anyway because it's the right thing to do. However the Anglican church doesn't see it that way and sacked him.

I graduated in 2021, but he was truly an amazing person, somehow remembers everyone's names, greeting them whenever and while I never had him as a teacher, I've heard he was really an amazing & energetic teacher when in the classroom. I was even at the school earlier this year and was asking how I was doing with uni and stuff. I genuinely believe he doesn't deserve this.

Please share this as much as you can, there is a change.org petition, but I feel raising awareness and maybe writing to Bishop Greaves and the Anglican Schools Commission are probably the best ways that you can help!

Thanks for Reading!

Edit: A few more news outlets have covered the story including:

I think you'd have to do echo o | sudo tee /proc/sysrq-trigger, otherwise sudo only works for the echo, not the write.

The title's kinda clickbait, they're removing the 'Full' option and adding a choose your own apps dialogue to the 'Minimal' (and now only) option, and installs the selected apps over the internet. This reduces ISO size since the apps aren't installed by default.

Which is an action I can agree with.
