<-[[.:start]] ====== Code & Command Snippets ====== ===== Windows WiFi Disconnect ===== Windows will disconnect a WIFI connection when it discovers there's no WAN internet - presumably Windows thinks ALL networks are connected to the Internet and this prevents using WIFI for an isolated LAN, and also throws you off the WLAN whenever the ADSL connection fails, even when you're busy using only internal LAN sessions. **THIS IS WRONG BEHAVIOUR.** I found a solution, and typically it's a REGEDIT task: From : [[https://superuser.com/questions/1650052/how-to-keep-windows-10-connected-to-wifi-without-internet]] Add a Registry DWORD "NoActiveProbe" value "1" at ''Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\NetworkConnectivityStatusIndicator'' Job Done. You stay on your LAN even when the interwebs is down. {{:public:computers:screenshot_2024-03-26_20.19.56.png?600|}} ===== Chrome redirects ===== To remove a "permanent redirect" - e.g. from an ''http'' to an ''https'' URL - I found the answer here: [[https://www.neilwithdata.com/chrome-redirect-forget]] * Open the Chrome Developer Tools (F12) * Go to the Network tab and make sure Disable cache is ticked * Reload (or navigate to) the page you no longer want to be redirected while keeping the dev tools open. --- //John Pumford-Green 27/04/23 06:12// ===== Vim Pasting ===== I recently had problems pasting text into Vim by the traditional RIGHT click method. Vim would enter ''Insert(VISUAL)'' mode instead. One solution when using ''Putty'' is to use its own mechanism : SHIFT-INS I prefer to use RIGHT click, as it's more natural so I found the solution is to add set mouse-=a to ''~/.vimrc'' This solves the problem, and I don't need to use ''nano'' when editing text files on my remote server via ''SSH'' using Putty. ===== Raspberry Pi Stuff ===== * find Raspberry Pi Model : ''cat /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/model'' * mount a raspberry pi image gm4slv@laptop:~/piimg $ sudo losetup -Pf igate.img gm4slv@laptop:~/piimg $ lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT loop0 7:0 0 4.3G 0 loop ├─loop0p1 259:0 0 256M 0 part └─loop0p2 259:1 0 4G 0 part sda 8:0 0 298.1G 0 disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 235.1G 0 part / ├─sda2 8:2 0 1K 0 part ├─sda3 8:3 0 50.9G 0 part └─sda5 8:5 0 12.1G 0 part [SWAP] sr0 11:0 1 1024M 0 rom gm4slv@laptop:~/piimg $ sudo mount /dev/loop0p2 /mnt * remove mounted image gm4slv@laptop:~/piimg $ sudo umount /mnt gm4slv@laptop:~/piimg $ sudo losetup -D ===== Git ===== Basic Workflow * do all changes to code * ''git add .'' to add changed files to staging * ''git commit -m "commit message" '' to do the commit * ''git push'' to push new commits to ''github'' ===== Windows Host File ===== * Start -> Windows Accessories -> Notepad -> ... more...Run as Administrator * edit ''C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts'' (set ''All files'' rather than ''txt'' to be able to see the ''hosts'' file in the file chooser) * Save ===== Auto SSH Tunnels ===== Used on remote installations to create persistent SSH ''reverse'' tunnels. ==== An example ==== [[public:radio:dormant:svx|]] ===== Page Info ===== Page created Thu May 26 14:00:21 2022 by John Pumford-Green Page last updated: ~~LASTMOD~~ {{tag>linux pi}}
