hi, I’ve been pretty happy with macOS recently on my m1 MacBook, really only because I’ve been paying for software from awesome devs who make great apps (plenty are open source, so most I use are not paid) and I’ve found my productivity increase like a lot....
I have a home server with tech illiterate users (Tailscale/VPN won’t be a solution for them), and I’ve been setting up a little blog to keep them updated about content and status. I had an idea of setting up a server status page that displayed the running state of various docker containers so they could easily see if...
I love not being bombarded by ads thanks to pihole and adblockers. I don’t have cable TV either. But without browsing netlifx/Hulu/etc. how do you actually find stuff to watch and discover worthwhile shows and movies to rent from my library?
(if you don’t want to go through all my strident words) Thus, after this rant, my question is: where do I start from to build my surviving kit and my right to be private and disclose personal information to who and when I want to. How I become the actual owner of my device?...
Hey folks! I’m getting a fresh laptop for the first time in about a decade (Framework 16) in a couple of months and am looking forward to doing some low-level tinkering both on the OS and hardware. I’m planning to convert into a “cyberdeck” with quick-release hinges for the screen since I usually use an HMD, built-in...
I have about 100gb and growing that is critical for my business. File size growth is slow, so it will be years and years before it even gets to 200gb....
Github has become more bloated, slower and more user-hostile with each update (just like all other big corp platforms). SPA navigation slow like hell, the “new” file viewer/browser is hardly usable in my opinion, code search does not work without login, etc. So are there any good alternative FE where the following work (read...
I’m at the limit of survival, which is not ideal. By this, I mean I have no income, no financial support, and my van doesn’t start. This last bit turbocharges the first. If I can’t shower, I can’t go into an interview....
Seeing the other post here about YouTuber that went downhill and seeing content creators I am familiar with makes me sad. But how about those that still makes great, high quality content?
Here in Italy, often schools, the educative relationship betwenn teachers and students is kept through google classroom. Once I’ve worked in a school that had both solutions: Moodle (the usability is very very scarce) and Google classroom. During the years I’ve developped an increasing grudge toward Google, because in the...
I have a pair of Bluetooth headphones, which I have been using since 2022. Today, I was sitting on the bus when some random person connected to them and started playing Free Bird....
Super Metroid’s color palette and lanky sprite were always a turn off for me. But I’m finally giving it a chance on SNES (MSU-1 version) & I’m really enjoying it!...
Hi! I’m currently using XFCE on my laptop, I was previously using Compify as my compositor (XFWM is quite rough), but stopped when I noticed I could no longer get through the day on one charge. My battery life doubled when switching back to XFWM. So I was wondering if anyone knows of any X compositors that have a focus on...
