Excuse me for not having too much to say besides everyone else in this thread. I just wanted to check-in and say something that I felt upvoting everyone isn’t enough. Wish you all the recovery you can get, and thank you for inspiring too. You’re doing great, at least your grammar is quite good for the situation. Cheers!
Why both Netbird and ZeroTier? Don’t they conflict with each other?
C’mon, is it news? Isn’t that the reason we’re all here?
Here’s my story on Medium about my journey from Reddit, to X, to Substack! Like and subscribe guys!
And yeah, Hong Kong is cool! I was there before the protests, so I’m not aware how different it is now. I guess it’s still the same for an average tourist though.
Well, it’s just a very small and narrow rice cooker you can have in your backpack while travelling. It’s a fat thermos size, and you can cook a portion for two with it. A regular rice cooker is just big and isn’t comfortable to carry while travelling.
Mostly in Thailand, but also Malaysia, Singapore, and Hong Kong, where I travelled to. I’ve bought a portable tiny rice cooker in Hong Kong, to be able to keep it in my backpack. Never used! So, I actually brought two rice cookers back home! I really forgot about the tiny one.
These days I do rice or other similar dishes in a regular pot, and it’s the same to me, more or so. Perhaps that’s just skill, I don’t know. Maybe I’m missing something and not noticing.
I’m on Arch, but I’ve been improving my system for years, and only recently I felt I’m settled more or so. I’m so sad I haven’t been keeping a blog about my journeys, I started one, and now trying to write things in retrospect is challenging and takes too much effort, I’m thinking of giving up. Do you guys have places where you share what you do and why? I’d love to read. Not many things are obvious, even for me. That’s why normies aren’t doing it. They are not aware there’s Colemak or Dvorak.
I’m willing to cry over all this, I cannot understand why it works like that. It’s not cheaper, and even if you’re optimising costs, it’s still cheaper to hire one competent guy than ten incompetent ones.
I couldn’t imagine my life without a rice cooker when I lived in Asia, but in Europe, I don’t really use mine a lot. I just use regular pot and it’s so easy to make rice for me, I am too lazy to take a rice cooker for the task. I don’t know why. I literally brought a rice cooker I’ve bought in Asia, all the way to Europe. It’s not used much now.
I update daily and had zero issues for seven years. Some issues need some light trivial manual intervention, but nothing more than that. I needed to downgrade kernel once or twice. I don’t know whether there’s much of unstable. I have servers running Arch and I faced zero issues so far. I so much hate upgrading Debian, it always breaks on me. Here, I don’t need to worry about that, I just update here and there (with servers), and I update multiple times a day (desktops), no issues so far.
I’m totally with you on this!
Hey, it’s not a blue screen of death, is it? Nothing is fucked up there. Except some incompetent fucker using Ubuntu for no real reason.
I imagine an IT technician running around pressing keys on real physical keyboards connected to all machines, instead of connecting via ssh, or even using Ansible.
Otherwise they’re an easy target for some fines, I think. It’s rather they pay the licence and nobody cares the money is wasted. And funnelled to the US, instead of staying locally.
I used to run LibreELEC (a standalone Kodi with some very basic locked down Debian) on a Raspberry Pi 2B with 2 GB microSD card. Works very well running 1080P H264 content (version 1.2, version 1.1 does not run 1080P well) over LAN.
I upgraded the setup for Orange Pi PC One, as it allows to be less picky about what I download, and decodes H265. But even RPi2 is quite capable, especially when you need to loop one video, which you can encode as you like.
Saying that, it’s surprising someone would even consider running a full blown Ubuntu on it. To me, that’s a sign of a sheer incompetence. I have no other explanation for this phenomenon.
Yeah, I wonder will mpv run on its own, without any DE? At least we can run Kodi that way, but I guess at least some video players are able to run without any DE or even WM. If not all, but I’m not really sure on this.
I’ve missed both projects. What were they? Are they like Jackett or Prowlarr?
Oh, thanks, I missed it. It’s a very long thread. I’ve read only the first 40 messages so far, so I cannot really comment on that. But here is a nice advice from there:
FWIW It is possible to run Syncthing via Termux — it’s not as integrated but it runs fine.
While I’m not a fan of 8 GB RAM for a new laptop, I’ve used a Fedora Gnome system for a year or two, with just 4 GB RAM. I used it for simple tasks in a workshop, and it was a usable computer. It struggled only when I opened too many browser (Firefox) tabs. If I kept the browser tabs count low, it wasn’t that bad. Also, I used the same system with 8 GB RAM, and it was much much better. To the point you won’t really notice it’s something limiting. So, technically, 8 GB is plenty for an average light use.
