It could have been buried in the snow. The Ice could make for some serious shrapnel.

An electric scooter IED wasn't on my bingo card.

Someone broke in Dec 15 and vandalized some of my belongings. Oddly enough a neighbor's porch camera was visibly turned off right before it happened. Thank god he turned it back on afterwards. in c/[email protected]

Probably some RF jammer

Looks like it didn't do much damage, the truck was able to reverse. But it did probably pop the tire

If you were an intelligent sea creature who could not always rely on the sky to tell time (as is often the norm whilst out there), what would you use as a time reference if you wanted to measure time? in c/[email protected]

Shadows can still cast underwater, so you could use a rock as a sundial or just how light it is at a certain depth.

I'm thinking of buying a car. What is some advice? How do I maintain privacy in a modern car? in c/[email protected]
[–] TheOSINTguy 25 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I only saw a few people saying this, but buy a used car from anywtime-2012 max.

Make sure that car is in good shape, has been up to date on oil changes and was well taken care of. And if you wants some newer car features, adding in a newer stereo could do the trick.

But get used to learning how to fix your car because less cars will be made that meet your requirements. Meaning that if you don't to sacrifice privacy for a new car when yours breaks down, be ready to fix it.

I don't see any wheels, I bet it's controlled by a yoke or stick, it has 4 copters.

This is a drone, not a car

Unable to flash usb to balena etcher (self.techsupport)
 

Hello all, I'm trying to flash linux mint to a old thinkpad I'm refurbishing. However, when I go to flash the ISO to the USB, balena etcher throws the following error's

[23381:0729/101159.717484:ERROR:gl_surface_presentation_helper.cc(260)] GetVSyncParametersIfAvailable() failed for 1 times! [23340:0729/101202.577845:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(280)] GLib-GObject: invalid cast from 'GtkFileChooserNative' to 'GtkWidget' [23340:0729/101205.337371:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(280)] GLib-GObject: ../gobject/gsignal.c:2777: instance '0x37b801188b20' has no handler with id '5761' [23381:0729/101205.693383:ERROR:gl_surface_presentation_helper.cc(260)] GetVSyncParametersIfAvailable() failed for 2 times!

I would like to note I'm flashing this ISO from my main computer running fedora, and I installed balena etcher from an RPM, (Already tried the app image, but it seems that FUSE is acting up).

Thank you in advance!

Unable to transmit VHF (144.390) on uv-5r. (self.amateur_radio)

Hello y'all, I recently got a cheap uv-5r off of Amazon so I could use APRS in a off the grid location, however I'm encountering a large set of problems with the radio.

First off all, I already tried the 3 finger unlock, doesn't work. Second off, I can program channels into it with chirp, but the radio will only beep if you press ptt. Only channels 1-30 will transmit, however if you change any of it in chirp it seems to revert back to gmrs.

Thanks for any help in advance.

I'll start off, my favorite song is all along the watch tower by Jimi Hendrix. That guitar at the start just sounds so beautiful.

Anyone else having trouble installing nvida drivers on fedora 39? (self.linux_gaming)
 

Hello guys & gals, I recently distro hopped to fedora and I'm having problems getting the NVIDIA driver to properly work. I get a error when booting that says "Nvidia kernal module missing - falling back to noveau" I've tried the following;

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/711756/fedora-nvidia-kernel-module-missing-falling-back-to-nouveau

I should note this is a laptop and my GPU is a 1660Ti and I can toggle the iGPU from the bios.

what are your recommendations for a good privacy friendly sms app? (self.privacy)
 

Hello, currently I use qksms but its very problematic and lacks basic fetures. One of those issues being you cant send videos, and sending and recieving media is pixalated or blurry because of a commpresion issue. I've already tried adjusting the compresion options in settings to find out it doesn't work.

What messangers do you guys/gals recommend?
