Is it possible to make WoL unicast work indefinitely?

Is it possible to make WoL unicast work indefinitely? - Lemmy.World

I am trying to set up my homelab to boot whenever it is being accessed. I set up wake on LAN for unicast, and it works fine for a while after shutting down the system. It stops working after a few hours of the server being turned off, though. From what I’m gathering online, the issue is that my router uses ARP cache for resolving IPs. Before that gets flushed, it still works. However, it seems like my router does not allow me to configure a static ARP entry. I already set a static IP for my server in the router, but it still won’t work a few hours. Is there any way to make this work? I just want to allow a friend of mine to boot my server whenever they try to access a service on it.

Why spend 50€ for Fairphone to install e/OS for you?

Why spend 50€ for Fairphone to install e/OS for you? - Lemmy.World

I have a Google Pixel 5 that I installed e/OS myself on, but I dropped it a few days ago and the touch sensor is broken in such annoying locations that I feel the need for a new phone. So, trying to be more environmentally conscious, I wanted to try a fairphone for better repairability. I know they have been offering a version with e/OS pre-installed, but I only learned today that it is 50€ more expensive. Do any of you guys know what the benefit of letting them do it is? I guess there technically is a risk I mess it up and brick my brand new phone, but I think the risk is so small that I am willing to take it.

Unable to install on e/OS - Lemmy.World

e/OS is a privacy focused android version that still allows users to install apps from the Play Store by spoofing user data. It uses it’s own store called App Lounge, and it works fine for most apps. For some reason, Boost for Lemmy doesn’t install when I click install, like all other apps, instead it opens the Play Store website inside a webview. Installing from the website doesn’t work for me. I was wondering if the developer provides the APK somewhere? I only found some sketchy links so far.

I am interested in installing a de-googled android on my phone, but I would like to try it out a little bit first. Is there some way to emulate a phone on my PC, or is there anything like dual booting on phones?

Discord update freezing system

Discord update freezing system - Lemmy.World

I am relatively new to linux and would like to learn how to troubleshoot things like this. I’m not sure whether the title is indeed correct, but I’ve had it happen twice now that I was on discord with friends, and suddenly my whole system freezes. When I restart, the official discord client says it has an update. Has anyone else have this happen? How do I best look for the actual cause? Or at least some error message I can google? I am on vanilla arch, running plasma on wayland, and I’ve got the AUR enabled using yay. Discord is installed from the arch extra repo though.

Looking for a better emoji picker

Looking for a better emoji picker - Lemmy.World

I’m on KDE Plasma using wayland, and I’m annoyed with KDE’s emoji picker. Well, the interface is fine, I just want emojis to immediately be pasted into the text field that was in focus when I used the shortcut to launch the emoji picker. Basically I want the behavior to be as close to the Windows emoji picker as possible. Does anyone know of an alternative that allows me to quickly type 2 different emojis in succession? Bonus points when it’s easily available on arch.
