Recently discovered KleverNotes by KDE, while only a desktop app it's really really nice! It's dead simple and straight to the point markdown editor. Recommend folks to check it out.

Well Sync is not a backup, but I get what you mean. On top of that I do have my own Nas ๐Ÿ˜… so using that with at least another separate offline ssd should be good enough.

I pulled the trigger and decided to leave. Not only because of the recent actions from Proton, but when I started looking for alternatives I quickly realized how deeply integrated I was into their eco system and how difficult it was to make the switch. That's personally not something I like. I guess this goes back to the saying, 'Don't put all your eggs in one basket'.

I'm now a happy customer of:

  • Mullvad for VPN
  • Bitwarden as password manager
  • Fastmail for email
  • Ente for photos
  • Yet to decide on cloud storage for files.

I know fastmail isn't the perfect privacy option but works very well for me. They own all their own hardware and use encryption at rest. They help develop open standards such as Jmap to replace imap. . This, to me says a lot about the people behind the company and is something I appreciate.

For those looking for a more private email solution then Tuta is a great option too!

Best of luck out there folks ๐Ÿ‘

Oh thats a lot less than i had imagined actually and very neat that u can turn of re-hosting pictures! Putting this on my to-do list!

Curios about how much space is required for hosting a personal Lemmy instance? Is this something you know, if it's not too much I would be interested in hosting myself!

Alright yeah I see what you mean. The i7-6700K was just a leftover cpu I had from a prvious computer build, and it has worked wonders uptil now as it has Quick Sync. But yeah, I was kinda hoping there would be an "easy" solution for connecting a MINI PC to some type of enclosed case for the HDDs with a SATA connection between the two. I'll probably end up with a different use case for the minipc in the end. Thanks for your input!

Right, so sorry if I was a bit unclear about this. The rack is just something i'd like in the forseeable future. I like the idea of having a small homelab.

My usecase is media streaming. Unraid because its more simple and I want to support the good work they do there.

Am not planning on using the big machine in the future, this is just what I was able to scramble up as a student from second hand shops and friends.

I assume you mean the AMD CPU when you mention that its an odd choice? Well, im getting it for free, so thats why :)

No idea how I would connect the drivers, was hoping there would be an easy solution for this but seems there might not be? Guess I'll have to look into something that has data as you say as I wouldn't want to slow down speeds or make it unreliable.

The rack I linked isn't one I want on specific, but generally in that direction. It's a small one for sure, though they have larger ones too:

My apologies, It is mostly a media server (Jellyfinn+arr stack), but also for many random projects i like such as Mealie, Freshrss, linkding, memos etc...

thanks for the link!

Thanks a lot! This was helpful and I too landed on Fastmail after hearing they're supporting (and helping develop) open standards.

 

What is Grayjay?

Grayjay is a cutting-edge app that serves as a video player and source aggregator. It allows you to stream and organize videos from various sources, providing a unified platform for your entertainment needs.

It's mostly used as a YouTube frontend^. However, it is now launching as a desktop app for Linux, Mac and Windows.

 

Yo,

Wandering what the limit is when it comes to how many containers I can run. Currently I'm running around 15 containers. What happens if this is increased to say, 40? Also, can docker containers go "idle" when not being used - to save system resources?

I'm running a i7-6700k Intel cpu. Doesn't seem to be struggling at all with my current setup at least, maybe only when transcoding for Jellyfin.

 

As in, sea view, mountain view, lake view etc. Which with you choose if you got to place your house looking out at X type of view?

 

Your photos reveal a lot of private information. In this experiment, we use Google Vision API to extract the story behind a single photo. Upload a photo to find out how much an AI sees: https://theyseeyourphotos.com/

Here is one example of what the output would be, while not specifcally very senstive - it did catch the model of my phone, which is a friendly reminder to use metadata remover for your images before uploading them anywere!

 

Hiya, got two very playful cats that both love to play. However often one ends up watching the other play with X toy. So was wondering if there are any specific toys where cats are "meant" to btoh use it at the same time? If so that would be cool.

So far we've mostly stuck to these original/typical toys, as in, paper bags, mouse on a thread and simple balls with bells, etc.. Feel free to suggest cat toys you've had most success with, need something new for our ones. Anyone here tried these automatically moving balls - any good?

 

Hi there, been working on my selfhosted setup a bit lately and just noticed that if I browse to my own WAN-IP it will show to the public the interfance of my oc200 omada hardware controller. While it does have a login form with username password, id be much more confident if this wasnt public at all. I've looked online and in my settings but struggle to find anything related to this. Is it common that this is on be default?

Any pointers greatly appriciated.

Edit: Solved - I panicked without thinking I was on my own lan when checking this..

Real unfortunate news for GrapheneOS users as Revolut has decided to ban the use of 'non-google' approved OSes. This is currently being posted about and updated by GrahpeneOS over at Bluesky for those who want to follow it more closely.

Edit: had to change the title, originally it said Uber too but I cannot find back to the source of ether that's true or not..

In this short video I'm hovering my cursor over the terminal app called Ptyxis, but for some reason this is only happening on my second monitor.

Second monitor specs;

  • Resolution: 1920x1080
  • Scale: 100%
  • Refresh rate: 120hz
 

Whenever I torrent something I feel like the torrent almost always includes addtitional subtitles and audio tracks. Is there a way to prevent this? I've tried to set up bazarr to atleast fetch the correct subititles and default those to english but its not always working either. But the default audio tracks I've yet to find a way to delete/set english as default.

Is this as common of a problem for Usenet users? Been considering going over to usenet for a while.
