The most upsetting thing IMO, is that people are just so brainwashed that they forgot what this was all about…

Oh yeah so only couch watching :) !

I can’t jump in for everything related to NAS, Yunohost or RAID5.

However, If you wan’t to host the arr stack with jellyfin or other media server, you probably need something to encode on the fly (some kind of GPU).

CPU encoding is superior but slower. Also this would leave your server CPU for other tasks more important. Encoding is very demanding and could bottleneck your whole server if you only rely on the CPU to do the heavy lifting and share your media server with family members.

Update

I hope and pray OP will read your comment 🤞🙏 Thanks for the write up !

☝️But this is also true on Windows. There’s no AIO plug&play OS ! That’s what arcade and consoles are made for.

You want to customize your windows? Tweak some graphical knobs? Install some plugins? New driver? New hardware? Do some more advanced stuff with powershell?

This all implies some user interaction ! Debugging a Windows issue is not that uncommon but most people just format or restore from a backup image (because it’s easier… Less time consuming…).

It’s just that people got used to how consoles/Windows/MacOS work and are hand held like they are babies not capable of maintaining their own system.

Don’t get me wrong, Linux IS harder to maintain than any other OS, but it also gives you back the opportunity to take control over your system/hardware/personal life !

Haha kinda scary !! XD

Yeah I tried readeck and while it does better than the others it still doesn’t use single file (or I missed some configuration?)

I do like it because it even transcribes YouTube videos and that’s very neat ! However, I work lot on superuser, stack*,ask* pages which aren’t properly scraped and render with their comments.

The only perfect working solution I found was singlefile + Zotero.

Not a single self-hosted read-it later use single file in their backend. I wonder why… single file works flawlessly on every site !

The only one that works similarly is linking.

😱😱😱

I do agree :) Just think about those wonderful NIST curves specially crafted to snoop on all communication. If this doesn’t makes you extremist and “paranoid” then nothing does…

And in france it was many times in the news about a group of friends who were arrested for using Signal. […]

I never heard of such a story. Do you have any reputable source to backup your claims?

I just read “open source alternative/hamachi” and I’m already hooked ! Brings back good old memories how I used to play splinter cell coop over Hamachi.

Thanks for sharing, will give it a try someday after I finished other projects in my homelab

Planning to close my Google Play Developer Account. Please say hi if you are interested in obtaining the latest gplay release files from me to help in publishing this app.

Seems like most open source project are leaving Google’s official store? That’s nice but will leave out some potential visibility for people who have no idea other than Google Store.

I wish their was also an easy way to leave github behind :/. Wait&See !!

funky boards which are laptop CPUs soldered to an mATX motherboard.

Expandability

Aren’t those mutual exclusive? Or is there a specific reason why they are directly soldered to the mainboard?

Didn’t knew that ! :/ I’m sure that wasn’t the case in the past (It was only called KMS at the time).

This is also why it still up and running on GitHub?

Edit: After a quick research I couldn’t find any info, do you have any reputable link to back your claims?

Edit2:

Where can I donate? MAS project doesn’t accept donations and it’s free. It’s because it’s a community project and involves many contributors, splitting donations is not practical, and also because profiting from piracy is not good.

I can use VM maybe but I don’t want to pay for the Windows license.

If this is your only concern, there’s a script floating arround on github (MAS 104k *) that activate any Windows version.

Not sure I’m allowed to send any links because this could be considerate as piracy and probably isn’t allowed in this community.

But you have enough keywords to find your way with any search engine if that’s a route you would consider.

I had the same question a few days ago. My voidling is only 3 years old and sometimes has the same attitude as shown on your picture with a long and deep exasperation breath (like hoomans when they are bored/depressed).

So I guess they can feel ennui if your cat is used to be very playful and you stop playing with them.

But we will never know for sure, because this is only based on observation :).

I dont know if this could be your issue, however I had some strange big black shadows arround GTK apps. After trying all different possible themes, playing arround with config files, CSS… Nothing helped.

However, on the Archlinux wiki, they mentioned something interesting: The compositor.

While this really depends what DE and what compositor is installed on your distro by default, I got rid off all the strangeness by enabling something in the compositor.

I post someone’s comment on a controversial topic about google and GOS. I saved it because that’s exactly how I feel.

Step 1 of installing GrapheneOS for de-googling your life: Buy a Google Pixel phone

Look - I know, I know. I get it. Google allows you to unlock the bootloader while maintaining the phone’s unique and excellent hardware security features. The argument makes sense. It is compelling. Other manufacturers do not give you this freedom. I am not arguing about that. I have a Pixel phone running GrapheneOS myself.

However… It is just so very obviously ironic that one needs to trust Google’s hardware and purchase a Google product to de-google their life through GrapheneOS. I think that it is a perfectly valid position for someone to raise their eyebrows, laugh, and remain skeptical of the concept either because they do not want to support Google at all, or because they simply will not trust Google’s hardware.

The reason why I think that this is “controversial” is because I have seen multiple instances of someone pointing out the irony, followed by someone getting defensive about it and making use of the technical security arguments in an attempt to patch up the irony.

XFCE team here !!! Though I was kinda surprised they didn’t enable XFwm (as stated by arch linux wiki) by default and had some strange issues with GTK apps (big black shadow arround apps). Took me some time to figure that out.

If I had to chose I would probably go for KDE. Gnome is great and it’s nice to have alternatives that are so different and also up to date ! However, I hate GNOME’s design choice. I hate my Mac and Gnome feels to similar to even bother with it.

Not directly an issue, however I found NextCloud and OwnCloud to much bloated and not very responsive. I tried all the possible alternatives and they all had some strange drawbacks (proprietary database, chunked into some weired file format…)

Sure I could just use my nextcloud instance without all the possible add-ons, but I just wanted a simple and a reliable cloud service that just syncs my files between my devices without all the bloat.

My final argument would be that it is written in PHP… Programming language of the past ! While I’m probably wrong on this one and I do have no idea of the programming language realm and probably evolved over time, I do prefer something written in a newer more “secure” language.

So that’s why I settled with syncthing. It’s not a cloud service but a syncing service. It’s different but has the same purpose in the end with more configuration options on how/where and when to sync between my devices.

As a final note (cauz I remembered something) 3 years ago I had a really hard time to make NextCloud work properly, via docker, with my reverse proxie (Treafik) I had to allow it manually in a configuration file and still didn’t work great, but was probably my skill issues at that time :).
