Can I have 2 billion dollars to build UNIVERSE models?
Whenever these editors wars come around I just....
sshfs zerocool@thegibson:/home/zerocool ~/sshfs/thegibson
... and then edit files with MS Word.... like a real gangster.
Blink twice if you're compromised by the Mossad! You certainly would not be alone amongst world leaders.
If vibe-coding is wrecking Windows 11 and Office now ... just wait until Windows 12 sees the light of day! Ohhh boy, will that ever be some infinite-monkeys-on-typewriters-shite!
Just read the paper. ArsTechnica is such a terrible source for analysis on anything remotely technical.
Assuming that:
- your Linux Laptop uses wlan0 for its wireless connection and your home network uses 192.168.1.x for IP space.
On the Linux laptop:
- as root or with sudo -- enable IP forwarding and load the change with sysctl -p.
sudo sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 ## updated edit thanks to folks pointing out my typo.
sudo sysctl -p
- if you have ufw installed and running -- setup a NAT masquerading rule for any hosts forwarding IPv4 traffic to it.
add this line to /etc/ufw/before.rules file right after the "*nat" line
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
-A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.1/24 -o wlan0 -j MASQUERADE
On the mac:
- set your IP address manually to be on the same LAN as the Linux laptop, but for the gateway address... point that at the IP for the Linux Laptop.
The Colorado River will soon be the Colorado Ditch.
The logistics accolade that you mention here is wartime logistics. That is ability to get the bullets and bandages to the places and people that need them all in a timely manner. The US is good at this because we have bases and transport logistics everywhere.
Military supply chain logistics(multiple sources for stuff, supposedly US companies...) is absolutely a consideration as well but this concept has been hallowed out over time. What used to be locally sourced materials and manufacturing by American companies is now much more dependent on overseas labor/materials. These 'American' companies might have corporate offices here and the c-levels, marketing/sales teams live here but all of the actual product is sourced/made in Mexico, Canada, China, India, Vietnam, etc. There are definitely specific industries like aerospace that still make a lot of stuff here but that is a small fraction of the larger whole.
I would look at these things first.
- Try another DE, something like XFCE. See if the problem persists. Sometimes swapping compositors or display managers can help too.
- Run memtest. Failing memory can definitely cause lock-ups.
- Lastly I'd look at graphics drivers. If you're running Nvidia, switch from nouveau to the proprietary driver or vice-versa and see if that helps.
Trying to keep a Lab out of pretty much any body of water is just not gonna happen.
Raspberry Pi's are full of possibilities, even old ones. Here is what I'd do.
It was supposed to be a pi-hole but was never able to get the dns forwarding to work on my modem.
Not sure what you mean here but there is no reason that any modem or WAN box ever really needs to involved with a pi-hole. You can set the IP to use for DNS lookups on each host by hand... OR you can turn off DHCP services on the modem run that off of the PI, which then sends the IP of the PI/PiHole for DNS as part of the DHCP lease to each client.
At any rate, ideas for it:
- PiHole with encrypted DNS service out to the internet and past your ISP's snooping modem.
- a Wireguard VPN server. This would allow for things like your phone to tunnel home use your fancy pi-hole to block all ads on your phone, privately. You'd also then have access to anything else hosted on your home network like Music/Movies/etc. Setup a samba share for that stuff somewhere. This raspberry pi can also pass your VPN client traffic back out to the internet if you setup (ip forwarding)[https://rob-ferguson.me/how-to-use-your-rpi-as-a-router/]. It's an old pi, so it won't be faster than 100Mbps, but for a phone/tablet that is likely fine.
- as a motion-activated camera or some other temperature monitoring box. You can setup a cronjob to archive the videos or send the collected temp readings to some database backend and use Grafana for a visualization front-end.
- setup a netflow collector/forwarder for your LAN using fprobe. If you network is flat and I guessing that it is, as long as you have a single network switch for both your wired and wireless clients (and a single subnet aka 192.168.0.x for all) then you can monitor the whole broadcast domain with one box. You can send/forward the captured netflow to something like Security Onion and really start to understand what's happening on your network. : )
There are so many more ideas like weather stations, news feeds, little web services for whatever.

Gentoo is GOAT. I am also glad that Arch exists though. Both have excellent wikis, good knowledgeable communities, lots of configuration options. In terms of pure speed, it is hard to beat a build it all from source as per your own custom USE flags setup like in Gentoo.
