What's that fictional world and story you've been batting around inside your head? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

The dishonored universe is constantly residing in my head. One story I think would be interesting is where Corvo uses the cut power (Void House) that allows him to take a respite from battle. It could be set in a canon level or a random encounter that leaves him pretty shaken up, so he needs to recover. If you want to see what I'm talking about, here's a link.

Sysprep can reset the activation clock a max number of 3 times. You can set SkipRearm to 1 and it no longer does this, but of course the activation clock isn't reset, which 'defeats' continued reactivation. You learn something new every day I guess. See Serverfault - Does doing sysprep too many times cause issues?

Are there any guides to living? (lemmy.world)

Hello,

I was wondering if there exists any objective, high-quality guides to doing various human-stuff like showering, properly eating, integration in society, basically anything that can be thought as interacting with the real world.

Maybe there's a wiki for such stuff? A weird request, for sure, but I am wondering if there's an overall better way to do common stuff.

I've found the worst case scenario handbook to be very useful, but more material is always better.

Thank you for your replies! I learned a lot of useful stuff here. Also, the context is simply that I want to know if there are more efficient ways of doing things. Initially I was looking for a highly curated collection of things, but I realized it's simply not possible to give a complete primer on life. That's what other people are for. Thanks again for all the help.

I understand this is a non-issue for your home network, but as I understand it, the real risk is when using a VPN in a public and untrusted place (e.g. a coffee shop) as most teleworkers do

On a sidenote, what theme did you use for Kubuntu? I've scoured the webs for all kinds of themes and none do it justice.

I was always curious about those. Surely they can't be faster than computers right? I mean, whatever computers they have in the 24th century.
