  • AUR packages ending with"-git" or “-svn” always pull the latest commit from source. The version number means that was the last time the packager had to change something on the PKGBUILD script, not the actual version which would be installed.

    Where should I look? Where were these talks? I’m interested.

    Edit: I found the whitepaper about hole punching: https://research.protocol.ai/publications/decentralized-hole-punching/

    It says it connects to a “Hole Punch Coordination (DCUtR - Direct Connection Upgrade through Relay)”. So for NAT traversal to work, you need a third party, this relay. As I expected. I guess you can self host this, but than you could just host a wireguard server. I guess if you are on a locked down network where you cannot connect to any relay (e.g. how the Chinese Great Firewall works technically they could block it) you can’t initiate a connection behind a NAT.

    Nonetheless it seems interesting, but no magic here. Maybe the big difference that the relay servers are distributed, so no central authority to block easily.

    Asking good questions is not easy.

    If you ask a question which was already answered thousand of times you should search for the answer, not ask it again. Obviously from your point of view it’s a new question, but if someone replies to a lot of threads it can become annoying to see the same thing again and again.

    Other common wrong question is when you don’t give enough details.

    If you experience that your questions are downvoted frequently, please read this old guide “How To Ask Questions The Smart Way”. If you ask good questions, there is a bigger chance someone will help you

    No, it’s just remote. Remote desktop is now also called Windows, also the operating system you are connecting to is called Windows.

    Gnome has relatively good rdp support, so with this you could use Windows (the app) on Windows (the os) to connect to you Linux machine running Gnome.

    It seems deliberately confusing naming is working as expected, Microsoft marketing team should get extra raise.




  • One of them is a laptop, why ssh to the server isn’t an option? Set up tmux on the server so it always connects to the same session, so you can just continue where you left last time. If you need desktop support, rdp in gnome works really well.

    E.g if you connect with this command, and tmux is installed on the server, it will start a new session named “main”. If a session with that name exists it will connect to that:

    ssh -t pi@192.168.1.2 tmux new-session -A -s main

    Add something to .bashrc on the server to always do the same if you work on that phisically:

    if command -v tmux &> /dev/null && [ -n "$PS1" ] && [[ ! "$TERM" =~ screen ]] && [[ ! "$TERM" =~ tmux ]] && [ -z "$TMUX" ]; then
    tmux new-session
