    It’s shocking how common it is to let everyone see you on «snap map» etc.

    I have a small garden for the first season in my grown-up life, so I have cucumbers, paprikas, supersweet cherry tomatoes, padron chilis, jalapeños, cayenne peppers and some random thai chilies I germinated from seeds from a phô lunch.

    Next year I’ll do some kale and some beans and peas hopefully and do some more raised beds.

    Oh, and strawberries!

    Gnome is the best clean no faff DE in my opinion. I end up modding KDE so much that it gets in the way of getting anything done.

    Wouldn’t be able to ping anything without a valid IP-address though. DHCP client isn’t getting an address and I don’t think setting a static address worked either, unless I missed something.

    Also try setting a manual IP then verify that your traffic is routed as expected. Could isolate the issue to something related to (or at least affecting) DHCP.

    Verify that the routers’ DHCP pool isn’t exhausted.

    • Unlikely the issue, but I’ve seen it once before where a consumer router by default had a very small address pool for some reason.

    See if you’re able to set MSS or the TX-speed manually.

    • Assuming you have a board with greater speeds than 1Gbps it may not correctly auto-negotiate speeds

    Have you tried using different ports? Restarting the router? Swapping router?

    Ftr. DHCP is a service running on the router, so reinstalling a client wouldn’t necessarily fix issues, depending on where the issue is.

    Do you have a password set for your ssh-key? What output do you get from running ssh-add <path to key>?

    If the dst-address is correct and the key is added, you ssh using -i <path to key> to specify key authentication. og that works you can vonsieer making an entry to .ssh/config

    Me and multiple friends have used this several times for the past at least 6 months. Works really well and you can see what your’re about to run as well as make a «un-do» script to pair.

    I would make an un-do script until you’ve tested everything you need works, especially if you go outside the standard. It’s quick to break some third party application that needs something stupid to function (like the battle.net launcher..)

    Teams is one of those things that everyone loves to hate, but for businesses with any significant amount of employees, Skype just wouldn't fit the bill. Teams is video conferencing and a lot of other functions all rolled into one, like collaboration, calendar, chat, groups, to-do's, some app/service integrations etc. I think the "lot of other functions" part is both what makes Teams so successful and what makes it so horrible to use.
