I mean, if you get a way to invoke X/wayland to render in a decent way instead of the VNC callback methods currently being used, I might really want to think about this. But otherwise I don't think we'll be getting an alternative UI anytime soon. Also I very much doubt this is in Google's interest to allow people to run a different graphical interface.

Yes, I understand all this but....If I got the wrong password, I should, A) get some feedback that I have clicked Enter and attempted a login, and B) get feedback that my attempt failed, right? All I get is a frozen screen unresponsive to any input at all.

Nope. Full on original surface keyboard. Works on BIOS, works on Grub...and then on that specific step, no input is reflected on the screen. No keys being typed, no failed login message being shown, nothing reacts.

...I think you have something here. If I create a random password and save it via nano on a brand new file, and use this file as passphrase during the initial creation...it then doesn't let me open the encrypted device. It says no key available with this passphrase. When you input the cryptsetup open, you're only allowed to manually type the passphrase (it no longer accepts a file with the passphrase, I think). Curiously, both the file and the passphrase I type manually...are pasted from the clipboard from the same password randomly generated on bitwarden and then copied to the clipboard. And yet, it seems something doesn't match.

EDIT: Seems when you 'open' with a file, the appropiate way is cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda encrypted --key-file /home/user/encryptedSD.txt

You have to add the file as a key file. Just adding the password to the file isn’t enough.

cryptsetup luksAddKey /home/user/EncryptedSD.txt /dev/sda

Thanks! I think you're onto something here. SOrry what's the purpose of adding the key? Does it get stored in cryptsetup's internal storage so you never have to input it again?

Nowhere in this article: the plane's autonomy. Its main catch, and the main unsolved problem to make electric flying a thing.

They never give up. After a bill attempt is buried, a new one is prepared just weeks afterwards.

Thanks! I had exactly zero knowledge of any of those communities. I've just subscribed to all of them.

Thanks a lot! Just like before, I have these two questions:

-Do I need a pair? Or only one can be enough connected to the router, and then I can connect normal wifi clients (phones, laptops, an AP maybe) on the smaller shed?

-Can these be managed completely offline?

[–] iturnedintoanewt@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Thanks a lot! Would I need two of these devices? Or just the directional antenna hooked to the home router, then just any spare router to act as AP on the receiving shed?

EDIT: Additional question -> It seems to mention some cloud controller-options. Can these be managed completely locally via some local webUI?

I'm not too concerned about the TP-Link advisory in this case, as it wouldn't be hooked to the internet directly (still needs to go through a non-TP-Link router), and this is in a rather sparse location far away.

Not... Great. You don't reach 30fps often. At least, last time i tried a few months ago.

Is there any Immich / Ente comparison?
