  • Yeah, the bank that manages my mortgage has mandatory text message 2fa if you’re on a new computer. And something about Firefox keeps it from remembering my machine, so I have to do the text message 2fa everytime.

    Right now it’s working fine, but they had a period of a few months where the text messages would take 10-15min to send after you tried to log in, and the log in attempt would expire after 5 min, making it impossible to log in. All of which could be avoided if they would let me use a 2fa app.





  • A lot of people won’t touch electrical, and the problem with modifying the wiring is you need to be able to clearly document or show what was changed in case it needs to be reversed later.

    This is ugly, but it’s immediately obvious how to reverse it to anyone who looks at it. And that pipe wrench probably wasn’t being used anymore anyways. I doubt they tapped the holes, those are probably just self-tap screws that both drilled the hole and cut the thread as they screwed in. No one will call this an elegant solution, but if it works it works.

    I set mine up on arch. There’s an aur package, but it didn’t work for me.

    After some failed attempts, I ended up having success following this guide.

    Some parts are out of date though, so if it fails to install something you’ll need to have it target a newer available package. Main example of this is inside the webui-user.sh file, it tells you to replace an existing line with export TORCH_COMMAND="pip install torch torchvision torchaudio --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/rocm5.1.1". This will fail because that version of pytorch is no longer available. So instead you need to replace the download URL with an up to date one from the pytorch website. They’ve also slightly changed the layout of the file. Right now the correct edit should be to find the # install command for torch line and change the command under it to: pip install --pre torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/nightly/rocm5.7

    You may need to swap pip to pip3 too, if you get a pip error. Overall it takes some troubleshooting, look at any errors you get and see if it’s calling for a package you don’t have or anything like that.







  • On Linux, most programs are available pre-compiled through your package manager. However if you wanted a package that wasn’t already available for your specific family of distros, you would usually have to compile it yourself. It’s not that hard to do, but it does take awhile on install and every update after.

    Flatpak (as well as snap and appimage) fix this by being more universal, a flatpak program can be installed on any distro that flatpak is available for.

    There are downsides to flapaks though, and not everyone likes them. But if you want an app that’s not available through conventional means and you don’t want to use flatpak/snap/etc, compiling from source may be the only choice left.
