What issues did you have with the AIO docker?

Kalcifer,
@Kalcifer@sh.itjust.works avatar

Well dang, I have Nextcloud installed as a snap (which has been perfectly stable for me when running on Ubuntu Server), but I was thinking of switching over to a docker installation; this thread doesn’t exactly fill me with enthusiasm for that idea…

How Many Streaming Services Do You Have?

I remember when it was just Hulu for $5 and Netflix for $8. Saved $50 a month from cable. Now it seems we spend more. I have four. Max, Peacock, Paramount and Hulu. Prime doesn’t count because it sucks balls. (Only paying Netflix when next Stranger Things and Squid Game is released). Curious to see what the average...

Only one: My Jellyfin server.

I have heard that it might be an issue with Peertube’s federation implementation, in that its not properly pushing externally.

Unfortunately, comments, and votes don’t appear to be federating from Peertube. I’ve opened some issues (LemmyNet/Lemmy#4314, LemmyNet/Lemmy#3837, LemmyNet/lemmy-ui#2161) for this in the past, and, from what I’ve heard, it may be an issue with Peertube’s federation implementation.

Fair points! I hadn’t considered these nuances.

The fact that it’s a “single board” computer, specifically, is mildly irrelevant, imo; just follow standard backup practices. The only way the type of computer really comes into question is whether or not it has adequate resources to run whatever backup solution that you choose. For my usecase, Borg works great, but choose whatever solution fits your requirements. The “simplest”, and lightest solution is probably rsync, but that may leave a lot to be desired.

Did you forget to complete your reply, or did it perhaps glitch out?

[…] so there are other possibilities than a standard desktop computer.

Would you mind elaborating? I’m curious to know what you’re referring to.

Linux Ubuntu Dual-booting horror

Any and all help would be so greatly appreciated. I’ve been battling with my laptop to be able to dual-boot Ubuntu Cinnamon and Windows 10 for about four days now. I’ve probably gone down five or six different rabbit-holes of troubleshooting, GRUB command-line fun, reinstalling and updating the BIOS, trying and failing to...

I encourage you to read through this Archwiki page on dualbooting – it has a lot of very helpful information on the topic.

I was originally hoping to do it this way and be able to dual boot them, but the more I think about it the more I feel that just going straight to Linux and biting the bullet would be better in the long run, and I can flash Windows if I really need it.

It is certainly possible to dual boot (in my experience, with the occasional headache that you may, or may not be willing to deal with) Windows and Linux, but yes, the most reliable installation would be one, or the other.

I was trying to get GRUB to act as boot loader but for the longest time I couldn’t even get GRUB running, even with at least 5 different troubleshooting ideas

Hrm, I’m not sure how you are going about your installation procedure. You mentioned that you are installing Ubuntu, but Ubuntu should come with Grub pre packaged. Installing Ubuntu really only requires clicking a couple buttons in the install wizard.

but I figured out how to get Linux desktop running via shimx64.efi in the BIOS boot loader.

Im not really familiar with shim, but, from what I understand, it’s the loader for when you have secure boot enabled, but you should have that disabled.

I don’t fully understand how you are going about your installation. Are you attempting to install Windows 10, and Ubuntu onto different partitions on one drive, or each on a separate drive? Are you wanting to use grub to boot the OS of choice, or to choose the boot device from the BIOS boot device menu? In what order did you initially install the OS’s (Windows 10 first, then Ubuntu, or vice-versa)?

That’s a useful bang!

That’s a fair point that I had not considered – it’s a shortcoming in the premise of my inquiry. I wonder if it’s possible, if at all, to create any recommendation service that doesn’t compromise on user privacy. It may not be, as it would require a user’s history, which, given enough entries, can be used to identify them.

Kalcifer,
@Kalcifer@sh.itjust.works avatar

The issue, I think, is that having access to a user’s entire listening history could very well be used to identify that user – one’s full listening history is likely to be rather unique.

Indeed it is not. Do you, by chance, have any suggestions – troubleshooting, alternatives, etc.?
