  • Right now I don't have much to tinker with, so I got something that down the line would serve that role.

    Why the 5 specifically, instead of the 4 or other SBC came down to pricing in my region, raw power, and the PCIE slot in which I intend to put a nvme when upgrading my laptop.

  • lmao mine looks simple af compared with most people here.

    Behold my server :

    Hardware:

    • Rasberry pi 5 8GB
    • 1TB raid between old drives ( one from PC the other a just a regular external WD hard drive ).

    Services

    • Wireguard VPN/wg-easy
    • AudioBookShelf
    • Freshrss
    • Vaultwarden
    • Navidrome
    • Calibre Web
    • Actual Budget
    • Trilium notes

    Everything in containers, if you want to know more check this blogpost.

    Seems about right

    Don't talk to me if you do not have 200+ years of experience with containers.

    *edit

    Just did math in case it was a bit flip ( Was really pumped if this was a show case in the wild ), but it does not make sense the number even without the most valued bit was bonkers ( 87 years ).

    So my guess it was indeed a bug or a memory issue.

  • Ubuntu and Linux Mint are ideal for people who just want to ignore the OS and get work done.

    If you are a Dev you should be clear of such problem, unless you need a very specific tool, but, many people can't switch because the programs they work with are not supported on Linux. Take a look into that, and in the worst case scenario you can dual boot windows.

    Gaming wise proton is a bless and let's you play most games, check protonDB for compability. Major portion of the games that don't work are due to crappy anticheat solutions.

    Good luck, any other questions feel free to ask.

  • Neon genesis evangelion : The end of Evagelion

    . . .

    Second time watching the whole series + ending, understood things better this time around however still have some questions. Third time will be the charm I am sure of it.

    It's a great storie revolving around the hedgehog dilema, change within ourselfs, and escapism, hitting too close to home at times.

    What upfront looks like a freaking cool mecha anime, which it is, hides a narrative so human it gives you chill by how real it is at times. Really recommended the movie + series.

    I liked the aussie breakdance performance on the olympics

    Idk, I found it weird, quirky and kinda cute on it's own way.

    After the trial, she even let out a statement, which in my perspective, tells me that was what she was going for, something different, something fun !!!

    In the posts I have seem the comments were a bit mean, like :

    • How did she got in the Olympics ?!
    • WTF was that ?
    • Was that a joke . . .

    ...

    I am not even Australian, but I really enjoyed the trow down.

  • Haven't learned yet, and still struggling with it but if someone asks if you are OK, don't go for the default awnser, if anything say idk.

    That and asking for help, I been in the bottom of the barrel one too many times just because I din't ask for a hand early on.

    uuh

  • Yeah let's just say that android 4.x isn't that great.

    Could try to flash a custom ROM with a more up-to-date version of android but the 1GB of ram would not help.

    Going for the minimal solution with KOreader and Alpine/PostMarketOS might be the best way to bring this buddy back to an useful state.

  • mmm I am now reading on the whole shbangle related to AppImages, will switch to flapak. Been trying for now to get a simple echo to work will address the rest later. Gotta get back to it tomorrow, thanks for the warning !!!

    Turn tablet into ereader

    Just like the title says I want to turn an old tablet of mine into an ereader.

    The tablet in question is samsung galaxy tab 3 in which I installed postMarketOS.

    I installed the console version, and once everything was set up I ssd into the machine and installed the following packages :

    greetd, greetd-openrc, cage, fuse

    Downloaded koreader app image into /bin/

    Activated the greetd service

    rc-update add greetd default

    and configured /etc/greetd/config.toml with the following

     undefined
        
    [terminal]
    
    vt = 1
    
    [default_session]
    
    command="agreety -c sh"
    user="greeter"
    
    [initial_session]
    
    command="cage -s -d -- koreader"
    user="me"
    
      

    and rebooted the tablet, however I am still stuck with the login prompt no matter what I do.

    Any tips on how fix this or a other way I could accomplish my goal?

    Update

    Got autologin working by ditching out greetd and using [agetty](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/

    nvidia jetson + media server + ollama,stable diffusion, . . .

    Not upgrading just taking notes.

    I got a rasberry pi 5 running most of my services now, and it's doing fine. Usually for my movies and stuff I go to streaming sites, legal ofc *cough *cough, but down the line I intend to build a media server too.

    The stuff I got laying arround wont do much with upgrades. So if I indeed wanted to upgrade my setup and run a media server + some AI stuff, I think I would be better off just buying a nvidia jetson SBC than building a tower from scratch.

    What do u guys think?

    Civ VI is pretty cheap right now, grabbing it at the moment for 3€, but that might change from region to region.

    The dlcs packs are pretty cheap too.

    Can't be the only one right?

    So I created this blog from scratch, and after posting my first article I noticed something.

    I suffer from post-Post clarity

    I have noticied before when posting random bullshit online, but holy shit, now having to write longer stuff, it's clear as day.

    As soon as I press the publish button even after re-reading the whole thing, everywhere I look is spelling/grammar mistakes and stupid takes.

    How in hell does this happen?

    Anyways as a proof of concept any edit will be in comment thread.

    Home server 1.0

    Tried some times to get a home server up and running but never followed it through, last week got some time, grabbed my new rasberry pi 5 8GB (it's a f*cking beast) and came up with this setup.

    Nothing unusual besides the podman quadlets/systemd thingies which I did not saw much out there.

    Any tips and services recommendations?

    Why don't technical books have a issues page?

    What's is assumed as correct might not be tomorrow.

    Many technical books suffer from that, being it small technicalities or huge issues.

    Some books have new editions to solve that, however many don't and even then it would be useful to know inaccuracies present on each edition.

    A simple issues page referenced in the beginning of the book would be golden, why inst it a thing yet?

    Dead Man Switch

    This week I read a post about the death of the Boeing whistleblower, and how Boeing might have suicided him.

    I don't care about if the rumors are true or not, however someone mentioned in the comments that in such situations one should always have a Dead Man Switch.

    For those who don't know a Dead Man Switch is basically an action TBD in case you die, like leaking documents, send messages/emails, kill a server etc . . .

    The concept tickled me a bit, and I decided I want to build a similar system for myself. No, I am not in danger but I would like to send last goodbyes to friends and family. I think it would be cool concept.

    How would you go and build such service?

    I thinking of using a VPS to do the actions because it would be running for a while before my debit card gets cancelled.

    The thing that is bugging me out is the trigger, I will not put that responsibility onto someone that's cheating, so it would have to be something which can reliably tell I am dead and has to

    Laptop keyboard cover/mousepad

    OK hear me out, I just got a new laptop and been using the shitty keyboard cover which it came it.

    As it was kinda nasty I went looking for a new one, had my mouse mat on my left and though "uh if only u were the right size and a bit slimmer" and an idea just ringed my hears

    "Laptop keyboard cover that could double duty as a mouse pad"

    Soft surface and grippy edges so it wouldn't slide, washable so u can get ridd of the nastyness of the tables u bring it to.

    Currently I carry everyday my laptop, my mouse and the charger. If bringing a mousepad was as simple as removing the keyboard cover and putting it in my desk I would pay a couple bucks for it.

    My question is :

    • Does it exist? ( not that I am aware )
    • Would it be cool or niche of mine?
    • How to make a patent and make scam kickstart?

    Recommendations

    So I finally decided to join my university Linux group, and as I been helping people with simple problems in discord for a while they put me in the helpdesk.

    All fine and dandy, but other than dual boot and partitioning problems that I had to deal with myself (stupid laptop which does no follow efibootmgr order) I don't know much about other kinds of troubleshooting.

    Is there some reads or free online courses that u guys would recommend.

    Intro/Outro MKBHD video

    Sorry guys don't know if this is the right place, but as I was watching this video I couldn't get the music of the Intro/outro out of my head.

    Supposedly the music is from 20ysl for what is listed in the description, but I Shazam it and did a little search trough the artist tracks and did not find it.

    Not really into edm or derivatives but I am sucker for this synth/italo house kind of music.

    Package format wars daydream

    Just saw a post of a novice user asking why are there so many package managers.

    At first I was about to copy and paste the good old "The OS is yours if you want to make a different package manager you can, and many did".

    But then I though

    Damn how does Linux have standards !?

    And reached a somewhat of conclusion that many of the established standards were established at the early stages of the project, there are of course those who change like the transition from X11 to Wayland the upcoming desktop portals and such.

    And here is my hipotesis if the GNU project came up with a good and easy to work package manager in the early days of Linux, do you think we would have so many different ones? Maybe even win the desktop war (OS not DEs)?

    Edit: replace package manager with packaging format

    Workout routine ( arms and flexibility )

    It's been a while since I decided to invest in my body.

    Usually I focus my workout where I think I am lacking some strength.

    For abs and core strength, I have done somewhat this workout and I think I will stick to it, every two-three days I will do:

    • 7 leg raises
    • 20 sit ups
    • 20 russian twists
    • 40 s plank
    • cobra stretch

    I run at weekends so I will skip leg day and as I skate quite a bit as well will try to manage the previous workout with it.

    The problem is the arms workout as my wirsts are weak AF since I broke them ( yeah... guys wear your wrists guards ), so I usually crumble doing push ups, what would you guys propose as workout not only to build my arms, but too slowly build up my wrists.

    Other problem that I want to work on is flexibility overall I am good but as I get older the more and more I notice my joints are getting quite rusty.
