do you know for a fact that is him and not just someone using his name? either way this is fairly harmless

yes so what. the title is “1 month without…”

he could have gone a month without using youtube and then posted a video on youtube and he still wouldnt be contradicting himself

using a meshVPN like tailscale or netbird would another option as well. it would allow you to use proper backup software like restic or whatever, and with tailscale on both devices, it would allow restic to be able to find the pi device even if the other person moved to a new house. (although a pi with ethernet would be preferable so all they have to do is plug it in to their new network and everything would be good. if it was a pi zero then someone would have to update the wifi password)

a “poor mans” backup can be useful for things like this, movie/tv/music collections, and will only be a few MB instead of TB.

if things go south at least you can rebuild your collection in time. obviously if theres some rare files that were hard to get then you can backup those ones, but even at that it will probably still be a small backup

she got rid of that stupid turtleneck at least

its cheap when you consider the desk could still be fully functional 100 years from now. good luck getting a chromebook to last even a quarter of that

one of the main reasons i switched to posteo was that it only costs 1 euro a month. i dont use email a whole lot so i couldnt really justify paying whatever proton were charging

no im not going to waste my time discussing stats with someone who thinks “american” is a language

a lack of good education is another thing you guys seem to be copying from americans

what language do people speak in Australia?

Wasp uses Python?! does that mean you can make apps and watch faces using python as well?

i had my eye on bangle.js for this reason, to make custom apps, but i havnt been too pushed about having to write them using javascript

whats bazzite like installed on a desktop system? is there a hotkey that lets you switch between the steamdeck mode and the desktop?

Cloudron is similar to yunohost but its a paid service so things are a bit more polished and up to date

CasaOS is like a slimmed down cosmos by the looks of it

you can add 3 friends on the free tier of tailscale. might work for some people but others might have to pay for tailscale.

does anyone know is it possible to get around issue by running headscale yourself? can you add as many friends as you like then? maybe something like netbird might be a better option since its fully self hosted?

it might not cost plex much but from the average joe’s point of view they might not want to mess around with this stuff, or might have never even heard of DNS or proxies in the first place so those types of people might be more inclined to pay for a feature that does all that for them. thats what plex could be hedging their bets on

even if youve deleted your twitter account dont forget there are redirect extensions that can redirect any twitter links to nitter, just in case you click on a link by accident. its better to be safe than sorry!

i only found this 2 days ago but i seems like what youre after. its like a more modern version of wallabag

https://github.com/omnivore-app/omnivore

i used that for a few years. really nice looking UI. the closest thing ive seen to that is Blinko

i tried CasaOS for a quick minute. its decent and just has the basics like setting up any disks and then has an app store. its really just a front end for docker and you can manually input the details of any docker containers that arent in the store

ive mostly been running docker stuff on my Synology nas. cant think of the model number now, 218+ i think, but any of the “plus” models will let you run docker. its very similar to Casa, no messing around with command line stuff. ive been self hosting for 10 years now and never touched the command line so i dont know what people are on about here saying you will have trouble

dietpi is another thing ive used on a few devices, mainly small SBCs and raspberry pi’s, but i think they might have a version that you can install on anything. its basically just debian, and it has a sort of a wizard that helps set up various things like set up disks and install apps. its headless though so no GUI unless you install one, and the wizard is run from the terminal but youre not having to type any commands at least

good answers already so i will give you a different example.

my basic understanding of it is that docker was created originally for developers. im not sure if anyone planned for it to be a way to package up software for end users.

before docker existed you would have this issue where devs would be working on an app, say jellyfin, but each dev might be on a different platform (windows, mac, linux), or be using a different OS version, or different versions of whatever software… which meant it happened often that the app would work for one dev but not another. maybe one dev updated C# to version 2.3 and told everyone else to update, but someone missed the memo and is still running version 2.2 and now jellyfin wont work for them and time would be wasted trying to figure out where the mismatch was

so docker was a way to fix that “version hell” problem. every single thing that is needed for the app to run is kept inside the container. one dev will update something to a new version, then that container is shared to all other devs and each dev only has to worry about updating to the newest container before they start working on something.

app settings are kept in a separate location and the app data in another. in the case of jellyfin, the app data would be the movies or tv shows folder for example. then when you start the docker container, it will symlink those 2 locations/folders inside the container and the jellyfin app can access them as if they were folders that were actually stored inside the container.

so having the settings and data separate like that makes it very easy to update the container to a new version, or for a developer is probably useful being able to rollback to an older container for testing. its similar to how say windows puts the program files in one location and settings in the appdata folder

for end users its handy if theres a new version of jellyfin or whatever that isnt released yet but you want try it out, you can run 2 containers at the same time and both of them can access the same settings and data. (maybe with the newer one in read-only mode so it doesnt mess up your settings or data!)
