I don't know if I posted my Stratux build. I flew with it to Novato two
months ago. The only thing is that the SDR radio was a little heavy in
the hub and affected the connection for the 978 MHz radio. You can see a
blog post of my build here.

I flew a Cessna 152 with it.

Hi Folks,
If I am on a Windows workstation and I RDP to another Windows machine, then I have no problem. If I am on a Fedora workstation, then the RDP session fails with complaints about TLS. This raises the question, how is the Fedora workstation is supposed to be configured to participate in TLS authentication/encryption, and why is it not, and what do I do about it? How can this be tested?

Thanks for the idea. It looks interesting. SDL2 is available in my repo.
I found this on Stack Exchange:
SDL and GTK are quite different in the sense that SDL just tries to provide you with a drawing surface and device inputs. GTK provides you with a user interface toolkit, that is, it provides you with user interface elements such as scrollbars, push buttons and so on. GTK is also quite complex compared to SDL. So I'd definitely go with SDL here. C or C++.. That's a can of worms I'm not going to open
I also found comments that SDL is easier and lower level, which seem contradictory to me, but which is consistent with the Stack Exchange post. I only want to capture mouse events a la xdotool, so SDL might be just what I need.
I've found some tutorials that aren't Youtube videos, so I'll check it out.

Think the easiest, smoothest path for that might be SDL.

I'm thinking about writing a small app that uses mouse input. I could do it in Java pretty quickly, but I thought I would broaden my horizons and used GTK. I did something with Perl and GTK a very long time ago This time, I was thinking of using C. Maybe I'll explore C++ or Rust, but for such a small app, I think it is probably overkill. I never learned C++ and I'm wondering if I should invest in it or just learn Rust, That is probably for another day anyhow.
My question is about GTK versions. Normally, I would just take the most recent version of GTK and go from there, but it seems like there are backwards compatibility issues. My devel system seems to have libraries for 2 and 3 at least. I just ran into a bunch of version incompatibility issues with XPRA. Am I going to have more that the usual amount of pain with GTK and should I pick a version other that 4? I am assuming I can just install 4 on the deployment system and it will happily live with the other versions.

Hi Folks,
I want to use gmail to send myself backup logs, since my mail server is not available during backup. I continue to get a credential error, but the credentials I am using are correct. I suspect that this is the result of "two-factor" authentication, which I am not using on gmail, but which has caused the "allow less secure access" to be disabled. I could use my ISP and configure an "Upstream SMTP-Smart Host", but then I have a detail to remember and reconfigure should I ever change my ISP.
Is anybody doing this successfully, without submitting to "Google Workspaces" or "Microsoft Office 365"?
Thanks for the help,

I need to get an USB to 2.1mm Male Barrel Jack Cable. It's similar to
the following.

Are there any local stores that sell this?

I installed Virtual Box 7 on my Windoze machine. It seems to work pretty
well.

I am using it to run Debian hosts.
