Saving this one. Thanks, man for the heads up

Ahhh see I had everything backed up already. Shit. I should’ve tried it after deleting something. I figured it would find a button and be asked where I wanted to put the file. Share kinda works for that.

Same but Jellyfin. I don’t keep anything outside of shit that’s not easily streamable on demand.

Yeah, it’s mostly videogame music and J-metal.

Keepass clients typically have biometric input… and let’s not pretend you don’t need to type in your vaultwarden password in Android on the first run, either.

You could use a usb-c passkey but I know that’s not the majority use case.

I just want to be in the most free place where I can talk to people.

So far, this is it. I don’t think the Twitter/Bluesky/Mastodon model really promotes discussion. The Reddit/Lemmy model does, by design, expectation.

Well four is just a bit absurd

Here’s an unrelated list of Invidious instances

And, no idea why this comes to mind as well, but since we’re being off-topic, I’m gonna post the site for youtube-vanced.

Set sail, matey. The actors are on strike anyway. You can afford to hate a corporation or two.

Nextcloud needs a heaping helping of a disclaimer before anyone installs it.

Use the Docker or Podman images, they’ll include most things a lot of first time users leave out that render Nextcloud buggy and inconsistent. It includes a cache, and about half of the security issues preconfigured out of the box.

Installing it native from a guide with zero explanation beyond “welp, there’s the start page” as the final step really doesn’t do much for people and there’s a lot of guides out there like that for Nextcloud.

I was hooked. It was the first time my PC felt as transparent and lie-free as notebook paper.

Like, there’s nothing to hide because nothing is. It’s pure, truthful freedom and that meant more to me than raw usability. I tried to do everything possible on Linux that i was told I couldn’t do, hell, I ran Team Fortress 2 and Half Life in wine way pre-proton.

and it sucked, but it was cool tho!

I used some Ubuntu derivative for recording shitty music me and my buddy made in a trailer. OSS off of a turtle beach soundcard with a hacked together driver, crammed into a shitty Windows Vista era desktop.

I felt like some sort of junk wizard.

I use arch these days, Garuda mainly. I’ve done the whole song and dance from Arch to Gentoo. I know the system, now I want to relax and let something I suck at, giving myself features be more in the hands of a catering staff of folks and the Garuda boys know how to pamper.

The dragons kinda… yeah, the art’s kinda cringe but damn, this is the definition of fully featured.

One less sale is victory enough. It’s one more than before the post.

Suddenly your video card is as mundane and trivial a solved problem as your keyboard or mouse.

It just works and you never have to even think about it.

To even consider that a reality as someone who’s used Linux since Ubuntu 8.10… I feel spoiled.

I’m sure it doesn’t really matter, either but we aren’t arguing that, so…

buys another used Thinkpad on eBay

If it ain’t broke…

Gamers surely won’t sit this out

loads up Factorio

lmao, watch me.

My one… battlefield with docker was trying to have a wireguard VPN system in tandem with an adguard DNS filter and somehow not have nftables/iptables not have a raging bitch fit over it because both wireguard and docker edit your table entries in different orders and literally nothing I did made any difference to the issue, staggering wireguard’s load time, making the entries myself before docker starts (then resolvconf breaks for no reason). Oh, and they also exist on a system with a Qbittorrent container that connects to a VPN of its own before starting. Yay!

And that’s why all of that is on a raspberry pi now and will never be integrated back into the image stacks on my main server.

Just… fuck it, man. I can’t do it again. It’s too much.

Odd consideration, but… I use 16Gb of ram and I have zero swap space and I’ve never seen a freeze in the three years this system has been assembled.

It could just be the way I tend to use my PC, light photo manipulation, some audio editing, some gaming just not AAA. I’m never stressing my system unless I’m opening a compressed file or rendering a video.

Yeah I saw this post and thought “what a coincidence, I’m looking to move from docker!”

Everybody’s going somewhere, I suppose.

The utilities that replace the utilities you’re used to on X11 work great, so do the utilities that already work on X11.

That’s um… not the best motivation.
