    How do you disable machinectl entirely? [solved]

    I’m mostly interested in disabling the command to create a root shell ‘machinectl shell @root’. Attempting to ‘systemctl disable systemd-machined’ doesn’t work. Edit: After some more poking, it seems polkit is the way to do it. Create the file `/etc/polkit-1/rules.d/10-deny-machinectl.rules` and add the following polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) { if (action.id.startsWith("org.freedesktop.machine1.")) { return polkit.Result.NO; } }); The list of all actions you can filter on are in `/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.machine1.policy`

    I have no experience with this, but did some googling. The AMD ROCm installer instructions for Ubuntu are here. You need ROCm for HIP. That installs the entire SDK not just the runtime.

    The Arch Wiki says you just need the package hip-runtime-amd. But I can’t find that package for Ubuntu.

    There are also HIP installation instructions for PopOS. That’s similar to Ubuntu.

    echo $(($(rdmsr -c 0xc0011029) & (1<<9) )) 
    

    Should return 512. You might need a ‘sudo’ before the rdmsr (any permission errors in any of this means it didn’t work). Unfortunately, this needs to be done every time you reboot. The next security update for linux will do this automatically.

    The only difference between prebuilt and DIY is the lack of OS, memory, and storage. The power brick is also an extra $80 for DIY (pretty good deal for a 180W charger). That makes the base prebuilt be +$200 to give you 16GB ram, 512GB ssd, and windows home. That price is good, but if you instead want 32GB and 1TB, the prebuilt price goes way up and you are better off doing DIY. Standard laptop overcharge for upgrades is in effect.

    Have you checked your subscription list lately? I’m subscribed to several communities I didn’t ask for.

    At first I thought it might be that XSS vulnerability, and someone used it to force people into some communities. But then I noticed all the subs are on this instance. Maybe it is a local database error. The subs I definitely didn’t ask for are: Teardrop…trailers, Hardstyle, Geohints, geo games, and Seventeen (lol).

    lemmygrad.ml might actually be China. But each instance gives a list of the instances it federates with, so it should be easy for China to block them all. Lemmy has no features specifically for evading state censorship.

    Yes, caching. When you ask for a remote community it doesn’t go fetch it right then. In fact, it doesn’t fetch at all. The remote community pushes when there is new data.

    Everyone will likely have harder time maintaining compatibility without access to RHEL source. Giving customers access to the source under NDA is only slightly better than closed source. Hell, even Microsoft allows some customers to view the source.

    You’re right, except I don’t see businesses moving from RHEL to Debian. Businesses are trying to buy support contracts, which Debian doesn’t have. But RedHat is trying to get vendor lock-in so businesses can’t switch to another RHEL compatible platform, even if support is offered. And for sure, RedHat “support” will be pushing solutions that only work on RHEL, not generic Linux.
