    Rust links glibc dynamically, and can use musl for some platforms. By default most (all?) of the musl targets are linked statically, but they should be able to use dynamic linking …

    Depending on your DHCP and DNS servers, they might already have this built in. dnsmasq will maintain DNS entries for the DHCP leases it hands out, and can also add AAAA records if …

    The easiest way to perform the flash is by booting into Raspbian and performing the process interactively. Without this one-time process, you can't netboot, as the default setting …

    From my own experience, they're probably flashing the RPi4's EEPROM with an updated bootloader and config to enable netboot. Here's the official documentation on it: https://www.ra…

    Echoing a sibling comment, that thread goes down the conspiracy rabbit hole very quickly. A few inaccuracies I noticed before giving up: * "Remember, only 13 deaths out of the 36 p…

    Not a one-liner by itself, but sticking pbcopy/pbpaste into a pipeline is great for quick text processing. Wish you had regency support in a text field? `pbpaste | sed s/needle/NEE…

    I briefly used Kerberos.io a few years ago (kind of a difficult name SEO-wise), and it seemed to work pretty well.
