redcalcium,

You might want to try migrating your nextcloud instance to postgres instead of mysql/mariadb. Many people says they get some big performance boost. I’m going to try it myself next weekend to see if it’s true.

redcalcium,

Are you using chrome or Firefox?

The version number will be incremented when Linus says so. He might even increment it to 7.x tomorrow if he feels like it.

redcalcium,

Me with my Windows 2000 😏

redcalcium,

If your processor is a kid, they’re in middle school now.

redcalcium,

Youtube can show ads and offers subscription without being this shitty though. Just look on how popular region-specific video services like niconico (japan) or bilibili (china) operate. They also have ads and subscription, but nowhere as crazy as google adding multiple video ads upon ads and pick a fight with ad blocker users (which used to be a minority when google haven’t aggressively pushed more and more ads. the current popularity of adblockers today is google’s own doing). This is only possible because google has killed off competitors in those market and now it’s time for cashing out.

Apple is so notorious at doing this, it’s not even funny anymore. The article didn’t mention these two famous sherlocking cases though:

redcalcium,

The fluoride concentration in tap water is like 0.7mg/l. Toxic dose is 60 mg/kg, but 0.2 mg/kg is enough to cause some gastrointestinal discomfort. If I chug 16 liters of tap waters after I brushed my teeth I’ll have some gastrointestinal discomfort from fluoride but I’ll probably die from water poisoning first.

redcalcium,

Meanwhile, nvidia 545 for linux brings a few more bugs…

redcalcium,

If your game run terribly on Wayland, try running in on X11, and vice-versa.

redcalcium,

I think you’re supposed to use the new notification panel now, which kinda works like those in android and ios, but it’ll take a while until 3rd party apps supporting them.

redcalcium,

If nextcloud is overkill, then just serve the file with Apache (with directory listing turned on) and put it behind oauth2-proxy. It’s as simple as it can get.

redcalcium,

Deploying openstack seems like a very fun and frustrating experience. If you succeed, you should consider graduating from selfhosting and entering hosting business. Then, maybe post your offering on lowendtalk. Not many providers there use openstack so you might be able to lead the pack there.

My memory is hazy, but during the subreddit protest, he was somehow removed from moderator list (did the admins got involved?), and the sub reopened shortly after. From then on, any thread about migration to Lemmy is full of people roasting each other. It was awful. No idea why those who remains were so vehemently opposed to migration of a piracy community. It’s not like you can openly discuss piracy stuff on Reddit without risking removal by the admins.

redcalcium, (edited )

It’s still one of the top posts on !piracy: lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/35555?scrollToComments=true . r/piracy went downhill soon after this.

redcalcium, (edited )

It’s unprecedented at the time because he was the top mod so the only one that can remove him was Reddit admins, and they did. r/piracy fell into a complete chaos shortly after that, lots of awful stuff so I didn’t stay long to see how it went.

redcalcium,

It’s an issue that could be solved within lemmy where communities with the same name should be able to merge and show each others content.

This is bad idea though, unless if it’s an optional feature that the users themselves choose to activate (e.g similar to multireddit, but you don’t have to manually curate the communities yourself). Imagine the same community from two opposing instances (e.g. blahaj and hexbear) somehow got merged by default. That would be an absolute shitshow. Also, how would moderation work? Those communities often have different moderation rule. Can mods from one community remove posts from another community with the same name? This would also be an absolute shitshow.

SingleFile extension can save a web page into a single html file where all media are neatly inlined inside the file. You’ll have to do this manually on each page though, so it’s not ideal for saving the whole website.

If you’re comfortable running commands in terminal, you can use SingleFile CLI to crawl the whole website, e.g.: single-file https://www.wikipedia.org --crawl-links=true --crawl-inner-links-only=true --crawl-max-depth=1 --crawl-rewrite-rule=“^(.*)\?.*$ $1”

Why does Docker has a snap version in the first place anyway? Did Canonical pester them to do it?

Edit:

Nope, it’s just Canonical went ahead and publish it there by themselves.

This snap is built by Canonical based on source code published by Docker, Inc. It is not endorsed or published by Docker, Inc.

redcalcium,

Personally, I think your choice of desktop environment have more impact to your day-to-day experience than your distro choice. If you feel at home with windows-like UI, try KDE Plasma. If you like minimalistic mac-like interface, then try Gnome.

redcalcium,

Then you ghost them and wait for the next sucker to fork your fork.

redcalcium,

Chance that your Ubuntu version already supports OpenVPN and wireguard (check your settings -> network). If so, just download wireguard/OpenVPN config files from mullvad: mullvad.net/account/openvpn-config?platform=linux

redcalcium,

That’s basically it. It guarantees you can always access your computer remotely, even if you broke your ssh, or accidentally messed up your network config, or can’t boot due to filesystem corruption and need to run fsck from recovery mode.

redcalcium,

Maybe Affine? They have self-hosted dokcker image with armv7 and arm64 support: github.com/toeverything/docker so it’ll probably work on your pi4.

redcalcium,

Lemmy’s current donation drive is almost reaching 1/3 of their recurring donation goal. If the goal is reached, they’ll be able to fund three full time developers. I encourage anyone who can spare ~$10/mo to check the donation page: join-lemmy.org/donate

Recently I moved my instance to a cheaper host and use the money I saved for recurring donation to Lemmy. Heck, I probably should host it on my closet for free and donate the money used for renting the VPS but my HDD is so loud it drove me crazy, it’s clicking non-stop when I host a Lemmy instance there
