At this pace, I'll either never change my car or will never buy a car again.

Because of crap like this is why I haven't been on any mainstream social media for 7+ years. And where do companies get off going over employees' personal crap anyway? For the record, I believe EVERYONE hates Mondays.

This is just a post about satisfaction. After years of using Linux exclusively, I was going over my Feeder just now, and just figured that I automatically dismiss anything containing the words "Microsoft" or "Windows" in it.

This made me realize how much better we Linux users actually have it.

Anyway, that's all this is about.

I want to use Radicale and do away with Joplin altogether. I finally understand JTX + Davx5 enough to be able to change my workflow to that. Now, I have around 400+ notes in Joplin. Is there any way to migrate from Markdown to ICS? So far I've only seen the option of an MD table to ICS, but I don't even know how to turn all those .md files into one markdown table.

Has any of you tried something similar before?

I didn't know where else to go, so if this is not the place, please let me know and I'll delete this.

I'm ready to port over to JMP.chat, and was wondering if anyone could share a referral link/code for me to avoid the 15 dollars activation of the number. I would really appreciate it.

I'm entertaining the idea of starting a digital privacy and security blog. As a matter of fact, I am self hosting it right now, but mainly for friends, family and acquaintances. It's super basic, more rants than articles honestly, 🤣

Since the only 2 social networks I have are Lemmy and Mastodon, I've been avoiding allowing sharing to Facebook, Twitter and other mainstream SNs.

My wife thinks I should just host it on a cloud and share it everywhere with the argument of, and I quote, "the platforms you use are already full of people as paranoid as you. If you really want to bring your knowledge and experience to others, you should allow us to share to the platforms full of people oblivious to the dangers you constantly slam us with" (which is absolutely true. I'm a thorn on their side, lol.

What do you guys think? Should I add features to share to those places? Would you if it was you? Under no circumstances will I post on any of them, and if I allow to share from my blog, my inner circle would be the one doing the sharing.

I do want to help spread our gospel, but I think that most people in those platforms are just to far gone to even care. I don't even know what to think anymore. I've only written 2 articles so far anyway, so it's not like I'd be the New York Times of privacy or anything.

This is absolutely ridiculous. Imagine some fuckers just coming into your room while you're with your SO making love or something.

I just got this email from Sony. My kids use their profiles offline (meaning they don't even have a playstation account) on their PS4, and use my games. And now they want to allow kids to link their other accounts (my kids only have a SimpleX user to chat with their family, LOL).

The sad thing is that a lot of parents will go: "Nice, they can now have it all in one place!"

Love how they say this at the end:

Stay tuned for more details. In the meantime, we recommend talking to your child about account linking so that they can safely enjoy these new features while playing on PlayStation.

They fucking call these FEATURES!

I just love this guy when he's riled up. Makes me feel all warm and cozy 🤣

This may end up being a bit convoluted, so I will do my best to keep it as short as possible and to the point.

I have a US number with Google Fi, have had it for about 8 years.

This is the only reason why I still maintain that one Google account. The benefit is that I only use it when I am in the United States, and when I'm not, I just pause the service and don't get charged.

However, I feel the string need to completely eliminate Google from my life permanently.

Does anyone know of a service similar to this one? It can be an MVNO or VOIP for my phone, and I would like to port my number as well. I found "phoner", but I can't pause the service, so I would be stuck paying a bill I don't use as much or loosing my number.

If the service is private (not to be confused with anonymous, of course) even better.

I have a trusty UnRaid server that has been running great for almost 3 years now, with some kinks and headaches here and there, but mostly very stable. Now I'm entertaining the idea of setting that box up with ProxMox, and running UnRaid virtualized. The reason being that I want to use UnRaid exclusively as a NAS and then run all dockers and VMs on ProxMox (at least that's how I'm picturing it). I would like to know your opinion on this idea. All I have is Nextcloud, Immich, Vaultwarden, Jellyfin, Calibre, Kavita and a Windows VM I use to update some hardware every now and then. I mainly want to do that for the backup capabilities in ProxMox for each instance. Storage is not a concern, and I have 64GB of ECC Ram running in that box. What are the Pros and Cons, or is it even worth it to move all this to ProxMox?

I need some help figuring out how to install all the DKMS drivers, and firmware manager, firmware daemon, etc on Silverblue.

It's easy on Fedora but I haven't found a single instance explaining how to do it in a Fedora atomic distro.

These are the instructions for Fedora.
