Hi guys!

I have some subtitles in French, which I'd like to batch-translate. Surely I could use gtranslate or similar, but the end result is usually...crappy, always losing context from sentence to sentence, making the overall result garbage. I was wondering if an AI such as GPT4All could handle context in the conversations better, and give a possibly better output. But I'm not sure how to make it batch process a bunch of files and output new ones. Would you guys know a suitable AI that could do this?

Thanks!

Hi guys! I've tried quite a few months back Fooocus for AI image generation, and while it kinda worked well, it tended to have trouble figuring more than one person on the drawing (ie, man and woman dancing my end up with any combination of men/men, woman/woman, or just a random group dance etc). Moreover, I just found out that this project is just in maintenance mode.

So...What's the cool software for AI generation/Stable diffusion etc? Preferably AMD compatible, as I have a 7800XT.

Thanks!

Hi guys! I'm considering purchasing a Xiaomi air purifier 4 (possibly). I wanted to make sure I can use from the Home Assitant app, while the router's firewall blocks its online connectivity outside the home network. Do the xiaomi devices connected in HA need online connectivity in order to continue to work?

Also...many of their wristbands series for example need at least to connect once in order to get an auth token that you can then use on gadgetbridge. Do you need any kind of shenanigans to get the purifiers to work on HA?

Hi guys! I was wondering whatever solution you guys might use to check/update your servers/containers? I'd like not having to depend on any cloud, something running locally would be great.

Thanks!

So...yeah. As I'm moving away from google, I'd like to store my contacts elsewhere. I have proton (I know, I know), but this is also not great, since their system isn't too android-friendly. Which system (maybe self-hosted) would you suggest to easily sync/backup your contacts?

Thanks!

Hi guys! I'm trying to check Molly-Foss as alternative to Signal. I installed it from its F-Droid repo. When I tap to turn on database encryption, I am prompted for the passphrase. After I set it...it just closes/crashes. Opening the app again, i'm back to the option to turn it on and set a password. What should I do?

Hi guys!

I'm trying to re-compress a few TV shows that are mostly animation to some animation-friendly codec (HEVC 10bit, maybe even AV1), to reduce the storage it takes on the NAS (I'm looking at you, One Piece/Simpsons!). I've used handbrake with full folders to handle whole seasons of a TV show before, but that was a bit frustrating to run on my desktop PC, hence the install of Tdarr. However it's a bit...overwhelming with all the options, without quite hinting what each one does. I'm adding a...library. Ok, what's the library? Is it say, an -arr full TV Shows library? Or should I add one library per TV show (custom specific settings for each one?). How do I work...with the transcode options? I see it's all drag-drop, but I'm not sure of all these options.

I'd like to transcode to say, HEVC 10bit, reduce perhaps audio with Opus or AAC, and keep same tracks and subs. How would I go about this?

THanks!

Hi guys! I have KDE Neon 6.2.3 running on my Surface Pro 7+, and up until now it's been running rather smoothly, for years. But today I seem to be unable to fully boot anymore on normal mode. Linux will get stuck on the KDE spinning gear, with the gear frozen. And it becomes unresponsive, to open alternative consoles with control+alt+Fx, or even control+alt+del. The only thing that works is a force shutdown by holding the power button.

I tried with a previous kernel, with the same results (current is linux-image-6.10.10-surface-1, I have a generic 6.8.0-49, but it also freezes). I can boot in safe mode. It opens a different login screen, and after a failed attempt of opening lxde, it fails back to my usual KDE session, in safe graphics mode.

What can I test? How can I see what failed at boot?

Hi guys!

I'm considering moving away from duckdns, as it's becoming increasingly unreliable. I'd like to check some other free dynamic DNS alternatives (I'm open to suggestions!).

My idea would be to have the server run under two different domains, but both directing to the same services. Is this possible? What shoudl I change in nginx in order to answer to two different domains/names?

Thanks!

Hi guys!

Just that...would you recommend any decent free Dynamic domain that is well regarded privacy-wise?

DuckDNS is becoming rather unreliable and prone to failure.

Thanks!

Hi guys!

I'm trying to create a WebDAV server that shares a NFS mount from my NAS. In short, I'm trying to create/share a backup folder in my NAS so my Graphene phone can run the backup.

How can I do this? All the guides mention about sharing /var/www/webdav and chrooting it. How can I share my own folder? Does it need to be /var/www/webdav? Can I share something else instead? Should I just link my NAS mount to /var/www/webdav?

Thanks!

Hi guys!

I purchased a few months ago a new AMD PC, with a 7700 CPU, 32GB of RAM and a 7800XT GPU. I've noticed since, that my electric bill has been increased (compared to when I used an Intel i7 6700 with a 1070 GPU), I was wondering, is it possible to use a hybrid GPU setup kinda like laptops, where the iGPU from the CPU is activated for normal tasks, and the discrete GPU is only activated on demand? Would the GPU be unpowered/sleeping in the meantime?

....all this from a Linux perspective, I'm running Nobara 40.

Thanks!
