IT'S HAPPENING

 

Our savior Caleb Williams is coming with pick #1 and he will destroy all rookie and franchise records. I'll hear nothing else about that.

What else do you want to happen? Trade up from #9 and get MHJ? Stay put and take best player available? Trade back to get more than the 4 picks we have? Any hopes for pick 75 and 122?

I'm hoping we stay at #9 and get Rome (or Nabers if somehow he's still on the board).

Matrix. Spin up a conduit server, doesn't tale very long and it works great. Clients arent perfect but the next gen clients are available in beta (element x) and will fix a lot of the issues current gen clients have

Screen sharing is still a pain in my experience. I'm a tiling window manager guy. I used i3 for years. Switched to sway, but have issues because xdg-desktop-portal-wlr can't do application sharing, only entire screen sharing. Well I have a ultra ultra wide screen, so people can't see shit on normal monitors when I try to share my screen. So at work, where I regularly have video conferences, I'm constantly changing my screen resolution so that I can screen share something that looks OK to others, but 1980x1024 looks ridiculous on my end on my ultrawide.

Hyperland can share applications and even regions, which is awesome, and I tested it successfully on my home gentoo system, but it only worked on Firefox. Didn't work for my jitsi electron app and didn't work in qutebrowser. And hyperland isn't easily installable on Ubuntu which is what I run for work because my work computer needs to just werk (gentoo is probably even more stable but I can't mess with long complie upgrades at work and some corporate software is only available as .debs)

So yea my life would honestly be easier if I just stuck with i3 everywhere but I'm stubbornly trying to use Wayland because I know it's the future but don't kid yourselves, it is a pain in the ass

While docker is open source I have no idea why systemd nspawn containers aren't more popular. Most systems have this built in without needing to install 3rd party software. And I find using it so much easier. I assign each container an IP address and manage them all with ansible. It provides isolation and convenience while not trying to reinvent the wheel.

I'm having a hard time getting into software that doesn't use traditional folder structures. I wish I could point immich to my NAS Pictures folder and have multiple places to seen the same exact files, immich when I want, nextcloud maybe, or just a file browser pointed to my NAS.

I'm having the same issue with paperless-ngx. I set it up and it's cool, but why can't I just point it to my Documents folder? I'm getting all of my 2023 taxes ready and now I have to upload them into two places, paperless-ngx for my records and Nextcloud so I can ultimately share a link with my accountant.

Am I old man yelling at cloud-ing right now? Why get rid of basic folder structures I just don't get it

I just spun up a server, looks very nice, reallllly wish they didn't lock down SSO and whitelabeling behind a paywall for self hosters. I'd much rather donate and keep everything open source for self hosters. Self hosting loses a lot of luster when you're stuck behind a closed-source paywall.

I have kodi boxes on all of my TVs and play local 4k content 95% of the time, but yea I need sports and live tv occasionally. Websites work pretty well on computers but the streams on kodi addons are very bad, constant interruptions. So I can either hook up raspberry pis runnung raspbian on each my Tvs and have wireless keyboards so I can go to the streaming websites, or I try to get a paid IPTV service on kodi, which I'm trying to do right now.

I didn't get the one with Bluetooth or WiFi or whatever. Just turn it on and set temp. But yea it isn't the cheapest.

I have the https://fellowproducts.com/products/stagg-ekg-electric-pour-over-kettle and love it, works great and it's the best looking kettle I've seen.

Anybody used this yet? Will this be the btrfs killer I've been hearing it might be?

[–] 1337admin@1337lemmy.com 3 points 2 years ago

I recently rebuilt my home server using containers instead of (qemu/KVM) VMs and I notice a performance benefit in some areas. Although I just use systemd-nspawn containers rather than docker as I don't really see the need to install 3rd party software for a feature already installed on my OS.

I handle snapshots by using btrfs. Works great

Top of screen at eye level? I'm not sure this scales well with large monitors.
