Commentary about a "Net Zero Watch" talk in Scotland. It goes into some detail about the issues with stability in the electrical grid. Inverters used for solar and wind energy don't have inertia to help manage and produce stable power. The April 2025 power failure in Spain was made worse because of that.

I remember seeing people like Shawn Blanc and Glenn Wolsey with a Mac Pro around the time I graduated from high school. It was the coolest computer in the world to me at that point.

But Apple seemingly stopped caring about it shortly after the trash can released in 2013.

They released the 2019 model, but it was so unbelievably half-hearted and the massive price tag made its fate seem inevitable.

Reminder to myself to check out Open Shell - a start menu replacement for Windows 11

Their website says it is a continuation of Classic Shell, which I have seen before. Looks like there's been quite a bit of recent work done on it to address the frustrations with the Windows 11 start menu.

some people seem to be offended by the usage of AI-generated content in the ArcaneChat social media account, guys, AI has been used in #ArcaneChat from its very conception:

the welcome image when you just installed the app is AI generated

even the app icon was ai-generated

AI is used to help development

that doesn't mean whatever random stuff gets added without careful review and lot manual work but:

if you have some strict anti-AI policy on what you use, you are in the wrong place!

Cursed setup - Proxmox VE on a laptop, with KDE Plasma on top of it.


The media in this post is not displayed to visitors. To view it, please go to the original post.

Proxmox is a virtualization platform based on Debian. It's not supposed to have a GUI, the management is either done via web UI or SSH.

But since it basically is just Debian with some more stuff, I installed Plasma on top of it.

It is also not supposed to use WiFi since that won't work with Linux bridges. But, after removing the adapter from /etc/network/interfaces (which gets automatically added any time I make a change through PVE web UI) and rebooting, I was able to make use of the adapter inside Plasma. And also create a bridge on proxmox, add IP to it, enable IP routing, and NAT everything coming from that subnet (used for VMs) through the WiFi adapter.

I just wish the noVNC could dynamically resize VM display like with VirtualBox after installing guest additions.

There is no use case. It can be done, that's it. I also tried to install Proxmox on my phone under Limbo PC emulator (QEMU-based), but I couldn't avoid random kernel panics during installation.

Also, Proxmox with 10GiB of available RAM (8+4, 2 for GPU), where the host uses up 3GiB is not really ideal. And on a weak dual-core CPU, on top of that.

Edit: But now I got an idea.
Now, there are issues. The simple solution will create multiple SSH connections that will never leave the laptop - that is - useless encryption, aside from other likely issues. The main thing is extremely easy set-up.
OK.
Thing 0: Exchange and authorize SSH keys between host and VMs.
Thing 1: Create another ext4 or whatever volume on LVM, and mount it on host (probably better to have VM with large disk - why should every VM have SSH access to host). This will be used for file sharing.
Thing 2: Mount it on all desired VMs using SSHFS.
Thing 3: Install waypipe (like ssh -X, but for Wayland) to VMs and host.
Thing 4: Create shortcuts on host desktop for desired GUI applications (which will run on VMs), prefixed by waypipe command. E.g.: waypipe -c none ssh user@debian-main.home.arpa firefox.

Waypipe works with vsock as well, which might be useful in this situation, but I have no idea how that's used, and if it is relevant here. Based on the man page, it does sound like it though.
But anyway, mostly just a concept.
