• MinIO: People are migrating from minio to Garage. I haven’t tried it, but people seem to like it.

Self-Hosted Apps

• Moonlight: check out games on whales

• Try Home Assistant, it’s really fun.

It’s inevitable, sadly. It’s like when people tried stopping the industrial revolution.

Better buy a lapdock. Every time you upgrade your phone, you get a new laptop for “free” and it will have the same features as the Googlebook.

Wait, what?

How can he be such a dick? I’ll take the link down.

Codeberg for hosted, Forgejo for selfhosted.

They are great.

no paywall here:

Edit: looking for a mirror.

I thought it already had one… what did I use before? Was there a separate package?

Full installation. For the OS it’s just a drive.

I wouldn’t say old, but it’s a Thinkpad. I’m using Aurora Linux on a work laptop. In order to not void the warranty, I’m using an M2 NVME drive via a USBC caddy. It’s been rock solid for more than a year and I get to plug it to my desktop PC and use it as a thumb drive to access all my laptop files.

Great experience.

Sloppening

Yes. Officially announced. Multiple times. IIRC the last time was at GDC, in their presentation deck.

Does this affect immutable distros like Bazzite?

About two years now, fully Linux based home.

• 2 android phones
• 2 android tablets
• Homelab running Proxmox VE
• 2 desktop PCs running bazzite
• 1 HTPC running bazzite connected to our living room TV
• 2 Laptops running Aurora

Rock solid, no problems, no maintenance whatsoever. My family doesn’t need me to use any device.

What about streaming apps: Netflix, Disney Plus, etc. would that be a way to stream 4k video on Linux? IIRC, Firefox or Chromium based browsers on Linux don’t allow that.

If so, that would be a great way for those wanting to stream using their Steam Machine, Frame and custom Linux based HTPCs.

I imagine their marketing agency going like:

The title “This robot is inspired by chickens” wasn’t good for SEO, so we changed to something related to Star Wars because of May the 4th. Now we are taking in clicks like crazy.

Holy moly, $100k a year each. I hope this more than covers LVFS’ costs and give them enough headroom to keep improving it.

For these companies it must be pocket change, but that can be a lot of money if the LVFS is efficient enough.

You voiced your opinion, which adds original, human made content and promotes social interaction on the platform. The fact that someone downvoted you really grinds my gears. Downvoting buries content, it makes it irrelevant and undervalued.

Lurkers too lazy to post a comment and instead using “downvote” as a “disagree” button should stop doing that and actually compensate for the bandwidth they consume on the platform with their comment, whatever it is, as long as it is respectful and constructive.

Also: I like liquid glass but I think it should be more moderately used. I think sometimes where it is overused it can be bad for legibility and usability.

Just go with OpenSense. Fully FOSS and comparable with corporate software feature-wise.

I freaking love Inkscape. I’ve been using Adobe Illustrator since the 90s, when the TPM requirement for Windows 11 was announced I immediately started distrohopping. I had to switch to Inkscape to keep doing my job and still be able to switch to Linux. In about a week I was as fast and good as on illustrator.

Truly amazing piece of software.
