@eapl.me@eapl.me Nice 👌 Add it to https://feeds.twtxt.net/ 😅
@shreyan@twtxt.net Hmmm?
I use Plex Amp 😅
@mckinley@twtxt.net He’s actually used to Wordpad and Rich Text Format files 🤔
Made this awful mistake of not doing pre-prep work before going away on our next camper trip (now). Discovered this morning that some (idiot) person had turned off the power to the camper trailer and the battery was basically dead. I just hope it’s not “dead dead”. We plan to leave after 4hrs of Bulk Charge from the mains power and it’s internal battery charger and hope for the best. I’m also brining a spare 12.8V LifePo4 battery that is basically full to power the fridge, just in case. Fark I’m an idiot 🤦♂️
@mckinley@twtxt.net He likes it enough which is good. The painful part is some OSS software just really sucks ass 😢 He’s found it particularly hard to find a decent “document” editor/tool he likes. He’s stuck with Abiword for now, but it’s not the most polished ir easiest to use. It also saves things in a really weird non-portable? format?
@mckinley@twtxt.net Ubuntu
@mckinley@twtxt.net Agreed. I’m just glad my dad has finally gotten out of the Windows ecosystem 😅
This whole “data commodity” has gone too far.
@mckinley@twtxt.net Well yes, true, but not my primary point. Microsoft really needs to pull their head out of their ass. Toyota, BMW, Samsung and even Apple to some extent. Companies need to understand a basic economic rule: If a customer buys your product X, they really don’t expect to have to pay for (useless) service Y in order to use product X. I’m looking at you BMW and Toyota, both have attempted to do this and somewhat failed at a consumer level. I wonder why 🤦♂️
Now Microsoft?! C’mon. For fuck’s sake. If I buy a new “today” computer of some kind. I expect to be able to use it “offline” if I want. I’m not going to be forced into paying for a subscription or handing over all my personal information to some stupid tech company that has no business whatsoever treating me as “their product”.
@mckinley@twtxt.net LOL Nice 😊
If this goes ahead, it will really give new meaning to “PC ownership” 🤬
Like none whatsoever 🤦♂️
lack the words in any of the languages I know to describe the utter disdain I have for this.
How about “fuck off Microsoft” 🤣 Or even “get the fuck out”🤣
wall
this morning as we were both on the same server investigating something... it's the best chat client haha
@hecanjog@hecanjog.com That is pretty cool 👌
@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net Well, I see no issue with this personally 😅
I ban all forms of social media in our household 🤣
Adults and visitors included! 🤣
@shreyan@twtxt.net Good! 👌
Looking forward to the extra long weekend coming up 🤞
How about the you?
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org It’s just a simple config file subscriptions.yaml
for me and the program run on a cron. This basically lets me subscribe to, download and keep in sync various channels I’m interested in and store them wherever I want. The nice thing is the output format / presets are done in such a way as to support media servers like Plex or Jellyfin out-of-the-box.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I use ytdlp-sub
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Pretty cool tree house 🏠
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Do you really need to rely on RSS? You could just run a daily cron like I do?
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Very cool 😎
@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net Oh boi, here we go 🙄
@bender@twtxt.net Well to be precise, people form companies 😅 And companies are comprised of people 🤣
So what do we think of the Reddit IPO? 🤔
@bender@twtxt.net These are not beinged pull via ActivityPub. I disabled the integration long ago myself on my pod. There is a Mastodon instance or two out there that serves up Twtxt feeds. Someone my pod has subscribed to those, I think that’s what’s happening here…
I’m open to suggestions
@bender@twtxt.net My point precisely 🤣 ZFS is ZFS no matter what Branded OS runs it 🤣
@osnews@feeds.twtxt.net meh in my opinion you don’t buy into the things that TrueNAS deploys, namely ZFS because of BSD. ZOL or ZFS on Linux is and has been pretty rock solid for decades now. There’s no reason for BSD specifically over Linux for a highly available and fault tolerant file system at TB or PB scale.
@eapl.me@eapl.me pretty cool 👌
@xuu It doesn’t seem to state it supports WebDAV though? 🤔 (at least not in the App Storw deac)
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Goos point 👍
@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club I’ve tried it, unfortunately it kind of sucks.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org The sad thing here is that I’ve now banned and blocked Youtube at the network over here. I need a way to solve for “when someone links me to a Youtube clip” or “how do I fix X” Youtube tutorial videos. Those are the only two use-cases I can’t easily find a good solution for. The addition however is gone, since now I just sync the family’s (Kids, Wife, me) favourite Youtubers (channels) to my local Plex archive.
Fuck the algorithms 🤣 Fuck ads! 😅
@xuu@txt.sour.is That seems more like up my alley (fully self-hosted?)… Tell ne more!
@sorenpeter@darch.dk Very nice! 👍
Seeiously though I feel your pain. So many apps suck 🤦♂️
I just tell my wife 🤣🤣🤣
@movq@www.uninformativ.de It’s also a fruit 🤣
@mckinley@twtxt.net Yse Useable. Yes ZFS RAID-Z3
@mckinley@twtxt.net Some 30 or so TB overall. The NAS alone is 22TB
@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net What a pile of absolute horseshit 🤣
curl | sh
. It's easy to miss the problem if you're still in the mindset of Windows software distribution, but these people are writing software on GNU/Linux, for GNU/Linux. You would think they'd realize that this is never a good idea.
FWOW I don’t think I’ve ever once run such a shell pipeline in my life. who da fuq knows wtf that thing is even doing 🤣
@bender@twtxt.net I think you have a better chance of winning the lottery spending that kind of money 🤣
@thecanine@twtxt.net Switch now or which anyway when you’re not looking? 🤔
@mckinley@twtxt.net Here’s a summary of my setup:
- I maintain a small “Mini DC” comprised of 22RU cabinet 600mm deep.
- This houses 3x 1RU Xeon machines + 1 RU 10 3.5” + 4 2.5” NAS + 4RU UPS + 1RU 24-port Gbps Switch/Router + 1RU Tray in the middle + 1RU patch panel at the top.
- This is now hooked up to 250/100 Mbps Fibre 😅
- I run Proxmov VE on the 3x Hypervisor machines. They run a dozen or so Virtual Machines.
- I run a couple of Docker Swarm clusters on those machines, running BurmillaOS (a fork of RancherOS).
- I just use the local LAN network to SSH into machines, but each physical machine also has an IPMI management interface too for when things go wrong (rarely).
- I run so many services I can’t being to list them here. But it’s in the order of ~50-60 unique services. Some of which you’re familiar with as many are public facing, some are internal and others are locked down behind auth.
@bender@twtxt.net I sort of / kinda knew you’d say stuff like this 👌 I guess I don’t really understand the motivation behind it really, I don’t understand half the stupid shit™ that happens in the world haha 😝
@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club Basically I setup ytdl-sub to run on a cron with a few favourite Youtube channels that the kids and I normally like to watch.
