I visited the zi.tools website, and some text in Latin characters are bunched up: Inspecting the site shows that it's using the default sans-serif font for Google Chrome: This appears in Microsoft Edge as well, leading me to suspect that it could be a Windows font issue. Does anyone know how to fix this? Windows 11 Home 24H2 26100.2894 Google Chrome 132.0.6834.83 Edge 132.0.2957.115

I'm working on a "commit-msg" git hook that validates whether some specific information is present in the commit comment (JIRA ticket id). However, I'm realizing that if the commit is a merge commit, we can't expect the JIRA ticket to be present, as that will sometimes be created automatically without human intervention. I know that completed merge commits have two (or more) parents, so that's how you can detect merge commits that are already committed, but in the case of a git hook, the merge commit doesn't exist yet. I don't think it's sufficient to check for "merge" in the commit comment. I saw this post: Figure out merged commit in prepare-commit-msg hook The well-respected answer was written almost ten years ago. I hope it is still accurate. I'm also wondering about some of the details in that answer. The answerer describes

I am new to networking, and I am trying to implement a firewall inside of an LXC container (Alpine Linux) that is bridged with another LXC container (Alpine Linux) through a br0 interface. Right now, my only goal is to block all traffic that is coming from the client device through the container. So far I have had lots of trouble getting any of the firewall rules to apply/work properly. What happens is I can set a rule/policy (e.g. drop forward chain), verify that it is in the ruleset, but then when I connect a client device to the network, it does not seem to apply (I can still access the network). I am using nftables to configure the firewall settings. My basic process is: install nftables add policy to drop packets in the forwarding chain I have tried every possible configuration I can think of for these rules. I was reading that because the container is bridged, that the data packets only travel on layer 2, so the layer 3 firewall

Hello I am using virtualbox version 7.1.4 r165100 on my Windows 10 laptop with the virtualbox extension, and have a MacOS high sierra instance running, but when I open it, it does not connect to the internet: I tried changing my settings to reflect the below question about this topic: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21186549/internet-connection-in-virtualbox-wont-work-mac-os-x-host-windows-xp-guest Is there a setting I am missing to get my virtual machine to connect to the internet?

I'm not sure if this question belongs on this site, this post says it does. I posted it on the Canon community but nobody answered it. The printer was just working fine when I was printing some photos in black and white. Then, the photos started to get light, so I assumed the cartridge was clogged. So, I ran some cleaning cycles, well aware that it probably used up a lot of ink. It still doesn't work. I read that ammonia helps unclog cartridges, so I soaked the bottom of it. Five hours later and still no luck. I put some ink into an old cartridge but that won't print at all either. I think it may be a printer problem as the old one works fine. The color prints well though. I really don't want to waste $30 on another cartri

I just discovered a mechanism in Windows 10 of which I did not know before. I have two Python environments installed on my system. Both are user installation (their executable lieing in AppData). I tried to run a Program in the system32 Folder (via subprocess.Popen) and discovered that it could not be found by my script. Then I tried to list the whole folder using different methods and discovered that about half of the executables are hidden (even though they exist). The method by which I list the directory (either cmd /k dir ... or powershell -Command Get-ChildItem ... or executing them directly) does not matter the files are hidden, when trying to access them via my python3.12 environment. Funnily using the python3.11 environment (also a user installation). I do not run into any of those problems. Here is a diff comparison where you can see which executable

I just updated my Windows-11 Pro to 24H2 and now I get nagged that Windows wants to install the following bloatware: Tobii AB - SoftwareComponent - 1.164.0.35934 I consider this eye-tracking & camera feature as both useless and privacy invasive and I do not want this app on my machine. However, I do not see an easy way to remove it. I tried removing it using winget, but that didn't do anything. (I guess MS ignores it's own package management system?) winget list -q 'tobii" # Found a cryptic entry, and removed with: winget uninstall -i 'ARP\Machine\X64\{50584CC5-E289-4591-8091-25AF533AE85A}' But I still get the same nag screen: How can I prevent this app from showing up and getting automatic
